You know, I was scoffing and rolling my eyes when I started the video but giving the dogs voices and letting you take them out on a mystery adventure is a pretty darn good idea. Even I started to think it would be somewhat entertaining.

I've been saying for the last year that Sony needs to create some kid/casual IPs and just throw them out to see if anything sticks. If they market this well, it might be a pretty good addition. Price needs to come down before it has wide market appeal, though.

If you haven't watched the video, give it a try before dismissing the potential here. The voices and setting go a long way toward giving this an identity.

What's next? Drake's Scary Mansion? Professor Kratos' Adventures? Make your bets.

well it looks okay for what it is..

..listen, i'm 100% on board with sony bringing a more robust line-up of games so more than just the core will want the system. but sony needs to find a studio creative enough to create casual fare that isn't a direct response to "what was nintendo successful with?".

wonderbook was pretty fun actually.  do more stuff like that please.

I saw a thread about it on neogaf, at first I was like 'WTF, seriously, I fucken don't want that shit. What was Sony thinking'.

After watching that cheesy trailer I was like 'I wants me a German Shepard, we be going on adventures and shit', Kinda reminded me of Jake the dog from Adventure time cuz the dogs in the game talk.

I don't know why but I find the game charming in some way....it's probably because I've been a dog person since I can remember cause I've grown up around dogs, sadly my family dog died a year ago. Curse you Sony, got me right where it counts, probably gonna pick this game up day one XD

jacob jones and the bigfoot mystery.

...i'm playing it right now actually.  i like it a lot better than layton actually.  the story is massively more charming,.. well, so far at least. 

Well I see its time for me to pick up a Vita!

It actually doesn't look that bad looks kind of interesting with the adventures and stuff... the talking could possibly get annoying over time but I'll be checking it out.

This is the game I've been waiting for

(Ignore the social gaming part. I want a Dog's Life sequel.)

This isn't going to get anyone to buy a Vita. Not when the handheld pet craze has died, and a carbon copy version is available without the creepy voices added in. It's just as uncanny as Kinectimals with it's creepy smiling tiger cubs. Why do people insist on personifying animals!? That's NOT cute. It's fucking terrifying. A dog acting like a normal, stupid dog is cute.
