cool, but using vita as another controller is not game changer for me. I don't see what all the hoopla is about either for or against this feature

nick3094341d ago

It kinda is, you use the touch screen and the touchpad as well, it was quite fun in the lbp 2 dlc.

TheGrimReaper00114341d ago

it was fun only in LBP 2, because LBP 2 is the only game that supports it!

sdozzo4341d ago

It's a start. Hard for AAA to incorporate this until more Vitas are out there.

FamilyGuy4341d ago

This reminds me of the GameCubes Gmeboy Advance integration. In some game like Zelda Windwaker you could find secrets by having a GBA hook to the system. I'd have my brother play along with me to find hidden sea treasure an whatnot.

Killzoner994341d ago

It's likely that Nintendo got that idea from Sony. Sony's had patents for this type of thing for a very long time. Even if they didn't have a portable out at that time they always had plans for portable/console integration.

There's a Free PS Vita/PS3 Game on the PlayStation Network, So Grab It Before It's Gone [EU]

Free stuff doesn't come around all that often. By that we mean genuinely free stuff. Games With Gold and PlayStation Plus games aren't truly free as you still have to pay for your subscription to get access to those games. 100% free stuff is rare, so we're happy to write that this is one of those rare occasions - an early Christmas treat, if you will.

Superfrog HD? I spent a click on that?

KwietStorm_BLM3470d ago

Kinda said the same thing. But yea, free. But yea, Superfrog HD..

G20WLY3469d ago

Well it will kill a couple of hours and the kids will love it at least. I guess. So come on you lot, it's free FFS! Might not be the best, but I'm gratefu(ish) still. lol

insomnium23469d ago

I remember playing this game on an Amiga 500 or something so I rushed to put this game on my DL-list. Thanks for the info!

Relientk773470d ago

What the hell is that?

Sounds like a Frogger ripoff

DOMination-3470d ago

Its a 2D platformer. One of the finest on the Amiga.

XanderZane3470d ago

True. The game is FREE cause no one wants to actually buy it. I don't think it was a mistake that it was FREE on PS Store during the holidays.

Wow, 4 reviews. The lowest says "don't waste your money" - well guess what? It's FREE lol

The other says 6-7/10, so it's better than a kick in the teeth.

Before it's gone? It's digital you big dope

kaizokuspy3470d ago

So was mvc2. Can't buy that digitally now can we?

AG66863470d ago

Well that was on for ages. It's not like this is going anywhere anytime soon if ever....

sardines3470d ago

I redownloaded mvc2 from psn recently. It will be in your downloaded list. Even if you can't search for it.

kaizokuspy3469d ago

@sardines, I bought it on 360, I moved to ps4 this gen. I can't buy it on ps3 or ps4 now. Nor can I P.T. they are gone forever, which is further saddening as I've made many new friends since the game was taken down and now I can't play with my new friends on 360. I can't even buy it for them. That's why it sucks :( was a damn fun fighting game.

Can just go to the PS Store on the devices you're downloading/browsing, not hard. EU only apparently.

XanderZane3470d ago

That's not necessarily a bad thing. I would have actually download it if it was the new Q-Bert remake that just came out.

MWEB GameZone Review | Superfrog HD – Toadally not worth it

MWEB GameZone reviews Superfrog HD on Android, a game that fails short so horribly in terms of gameplay and controls that it was better left to the PlayStation and PC.
