PlayStation Vita Games to Look Forward to

The Playstation Vita is a very impressive piece of hardware, but a game console is nothing without a great line-up of games, and Sony knows this well. Here are eight of the most interesting PS Vita games, which should be available around launch.

LittleBigPlanet

Sackboy in the house

The Vita is tailor-made for Sony’s Play.Create.Share brand of games that encourage user-generated content. LittleBigPlanet will make use of the Vita’s touch screen, trackpad and cameras for both gameplay and level creation. The Vita version will also feature a completely new single-player adventure, plus a pass’n’play multiplayer mode. Once you’re done with that, there are millions of user-created levels from the PS3 and PSP versions available online for you to try out for free.

Little Deviants

Little Deviants is a collection of mini games, where each makes use of one of the Vita’s unique features, from an augmented reality shooter that turns what your camera sees into the game world, to using the rear track pad to alter ground elevation and move a ball around the level. Little Deviants is a pick-up-and-play game that can be played solo or with eight players in ‘pass around’ multiplayer.

Modnation Racers

Racing on the go

Another Play.Create.Share success story, Modnation Racers is a great fit for the Vita. The cutesy kart racer has already had successful outings on the PS3 and PSP, and it comes to the PS Vita with an all new career mode, featuring 10 new tracks and cooler weapons, plus the ability to download and play the half a million community tracks that have already been created by PS3 and PSP players.

Ruin

Like Diablo in the palm of your hand

At E3, Sony used Ruin to show how easy PS3-Vita cross compatibility is. This isometric action RPG will be available on PS3 and Vita, with the ability to transfer your saved game from one console to another. So if you’ve played it on the PS3, transfer your saved file to the Vita, and continue where you left off when you’re on-the-go. Ruin boasts of deep social features, allowing you to broadcast your accomplishments and challenge friends online.
