No Dual Analog, which is vital to FPS

Agree 100% with OP. This might be a massive advantage over 3DS.

Evolution of Shooters?.... because VITA has daul analogs which has been around since at least PS1 days. I will definitely make it more attractive for FPS developers, but who would buy a FPS on a handheld before a console anywaz.


Me + hundreds of thousands who want to play FPS on the go.



updated: 14.01.2012

playing right now: Xenoblade Chronicles

Hype-o-meter, from least to most hyped:  the Last Story, Twisted Metal, Mass Effect 3, Final Fantasy XIII-2, Final Fantasy Versus XIII, Playstation ViTA

bet with Mordred11 that Rage will look better on Xbox 360.

Thank the heavens, i cant wait lol. My only hope now is that 4g comes to it somehow so i can play anywhere i go


4g? That's some high hopes lol, but either way battlefield or COD on the go sounds badass.

I would imagine that the 3DS is going to get a lot of the games too. All of the CoD games played pretty well on the DS to be honest. The touch screen, on high sensitivity, actually functioned a little bit like a mouse and had a nice effect for me. I used only my thumb, not the stylus. The 3DS has an analog nub to add more control. The 3DS will also be quite nice for FPS, IMO.

I think it is a nice addition in control options that PS Vita has the 2nd analog stick, but I don't think that will bring in a ton more FPS games. The touchscreen on Vita also doubles in that capacity, but that is still not the reason Vita will get a lot of FPS games.

The reason Vita will get more FPS games is because of easy-portability with the PS3. Developers will see Vita as an easy cash-in. I'm excited about all the cross-platform opportunities using PSN. That said, I'm also a little concerned that FPS on Vita will stifle innovation that portable gaming systems usually bring about. If developers treat Vita as a PS3-port machine, I wonder how many original titles will be passed over.

I think the problem in fast-paces fps in 3DS is that beyond the touchscreen and analog you have only 1 button to play(will be used for fire of course)

In Vita you have 2+4 buttons that can be pressed quicker.
