Cross-play between PS3 and PSV would be the only way to shift any copies if it's ever made.

So that would be like if someone was playing multiplayer on the PS3 they could play against someone on the vita as well?


Spot on. As well being able to carry on with your PS3 character on your Vita. I think it's a solid feature for RPGs.

I would... not be interested in buying this.

That's transfarring.

In fact we have three new features:

- Cross-Buy: buy it for PS3, get it for Vita and/or vice versa

- Cross-Play: play on PS3 against vita users and vice versa

- Transfarring: Play on PS3, synch your savegame to the vita and continue playing there. Same vice versa.

 

Weird stuff, but well. Three new features.



must-have-list for platforms i don't own yet:

WiiU: Donkey Kong

XBone: Dead Rising 3, Ryse

An exclusive borderlands game for the vita is needed, not more ports. People aren't going to play the same games on their vita that they can play on their home console or PS3, consumers want a unique experience.

Only Konami call it transfarring. BB CS Extend has a save transfer feature between the PS3 and PSV version and I think Arcsys just refers to it as Cross-play.

He's just hinting Sony to moneyhat them for put a game on Vita.

Actually I think Cross Play is the saving feature while Cross Platform is multiplayer capabilities.



Before the PS3 everyone was nice to me :(

How about Gearbox having there own vita team, but thats just an idea. An exclusive Boarderlands game would be a better option though. I think Sony Bend would be the perfect team for this or the guys who made Rayman origins.



 

Bet with gooch_destroyer, he wins if FFX and FFX-2 will be at $40 each for the vita. I win if it dont

High risk-low reward. It's very hard to sell tons of games on a very low install base platform.
