| Chark said: I enjoyed the demos I played on the Wii U, asynchronous is pretty cool. I am concerned over the PS3's ability to handle it to the full extent and feel that the PS4 will provide higher quality compatibility with the Vita. |
I think this says it best.
For example, someone had shown me LBP2 running on both the PS3 and the Vita simultaneously via one game disc at the TGS 2011 conference. That, and the article in the OP show that it's possible, but I find it peculiar that the most recent showing of LBP2 cross controller play at GDC 2012 didn't perform that way, instead showing simple shapes on the Vita while only the TV showed the full game, with the TV display being put on hold when the game switched to the Vita. To reiterate d21lewis' COD question, while I'm sure the PS3 could output to the Vita in some form, could it maintain the HD image on the TV while outputting the Vita's own independent view and maintain 60fps with only one copy of the game?
Point being, I'm skeptical of PS3/Vita being able to perform at the same level in these regards as WiiU, which does them with ease and with only one copy of the game, and can also switch between TV and gamepad on the fly - all right out of the box - and all at a cheaper price to boot.
