VGW: It is something gamers have drooled over for years: The possibility of playing an HD console game in their living room, and continuing it on the go via a handheld device. While many franchises (Dragon Age, Assassin’s Creed) have augmented our experience with Facebook entries that hook into the main game somehow — be it adding experience or items — it looks like the synergy between the Playstation 3 and Playstation Vita may finally make this dream a reality.
Alex S. from Link Cable Gaming writes: "Before Sony shuts down these stores, we wanted to give you a chance to grab the gems that will be lost forever. Here are five PlayStation games you need to play before they are gone forever."
Some of these digi titles need to be converted to run on ps5 games like the last guy will be gone now
I really wish we got a Tokyo Jungle sequel with a bit more budget to it. That game was so unique.
Where did Sony’s racing franchise go?
Studio wanted try a more "racing sim" with Driveclub, didn't go too well and Sony shut the studio down. The team reformed at Codemasters and made Onrush, which is unsure if it did well. Now I guess they just work for codemasters
I think the last few MotorStorm games didn't sell very well.
Still remember playing the first one and being in awe of the mud effects.
VGChartz's Adam Cartwright: "The racing genre has always felt like a perfect fit on handhelds, thanks to offering bite-sized sessions and being able to hide technical flaws behind blistering speeds and enclosed environments. It provides a large amount of variety too, from immersive sims to light-hearted kart racers (and my personal favourite, drift-heavy arcade racers!), meaning there’s usually something for everyone to enjoy.
Anticipation was high that the Vita would follow in the PSP’s footsteps as a handheld offering an unrivalled selection of racers, from muddy WRC titles to the clean racing lines of Gran Turismo. Beyond the initial months things didn’t quite pan out like this, but there’s still a nice spread of games available to cater to anyone’s tastes – and thanks to the addition of backwards-compatibility with PSP and PS1, the Vita ends up with possibly the largest selection of any console in the last 10 years, even if it's not all running natively on the hardware."
That is good to know. I really want RUNE, so I hope it does the same. I'll buy it on PSN and then be able to play it on the go as well. I guess that means transferable saves for MC RC too? And is it true this isn't using crossplay, cause I thought I read it will somewhere, like how Ruin and WipEouT will.
I'm expecting Ruin and Dragon's Crown to have the same deal. That would probably make them an instant buy for me.
i like it i like it alot
Yep I love that a lot of games re getting this treatment. Hope the same thing happens to the MGS collection because transfarring sound great.
