Katamari's controls looks really annoying. 
flicking the screen the entire time? Wasn't the point of adding dual analog controls to avoid having to do things like that?

...wow, all of those actually look realy interesting (except for maybe the diving one).

I think that's optional.

Lego Harry Potter: Years 5-7, WB Games
What are the chances this has co-op with the PS3 version? I enjoy the lego games but never liked that "smart" screen spliting. It makes me motion sick

You can use the analog sticks to move.
It's going to be launch window though, given it releases in Japan before Vita does in the West, lol.
It's a PSN release. So it's just compatible with both. Basically game sharing just between PS3-Vita.
Releases in Japan in february, right? PSVita not region locked. Do the maths
Well if there are english subtitles then that is a possibility.
But still, as Takao states it will be in the launch window somewhere, but theres nothing I want that will make me put the money down right now for launch. Sometimes I think I'm a terrible gamer for only liking a select few genres....
Where exactly? Gravity Rush is being reported as a launch title right in this thread.

It comes out near the EU/US launch (Feb 9), but I don't think it's ever been truly confirmed as a launch title..
The Eurogamer article claims to have the "full list", but doesn't list Gravity.
UK PSN Blog stating that Gravity Rush is a launch title:

I wonder if it is game sharing because the game has to be two versions due to the different hardware. Unless the PS Store automatically detect if you're trying to download it on Vita or PS3.

Dumbest you mean. Right? What´s Sony is going to release after 5-6 month? It´s really stupid releasing all these games in the same day.
I enjoyed MAG and the Socom 4 beta but from the sounds of things, this doesn't have online. But yeah, compared to CoD, there's going to be very little attention paid to this and Resistance.
Looks like Eurogamer missed it off their list.
The Sony blog seems to list it, however.
Great news. Now hoping for KOFXIII for Vita to complete my fighting game collection (OK SSFIVAE would be nice too).

That is a metric FUCKTON of first-party launch titles. Sony's body of studios has gotten freaking massive in the last few years.
Has any platform ever had that many first-party titles on day one?
What's better...too many launch titles on day one, leaving plenty of stuff for people to buy during the post-launch drought, or just a couple and then a few months of nothing? I'd much rather have more choices to make on day one then the next few months of picking up stuff I want to try out on the cheap, instead of waiting for piecemeal releases.

I bet there is plenty we haven't heard about! Killzone, Resistance and Ruin aren't even there. Plus there seems to be a nice list of 3rd party too.
How is that dumb? Those games will still be there for you to buy six months after launch. You don't have to buy everything at once.

I thought MK Vitality was a hoax.
I'd go with the latter. May just 'unlock' a Vita version when purchased on PS3 and vice versa. It's nice way to get the game on both for sure, but I think people are praising it a little too much as we still don't know if retail games will offer such benefits.

I am saying space them out. Launch 2 titles a month.
Sony should spam its titles or else they will cannibalize each other.
It´s dumb for 2 reasons
1- Releasing all these games on day one means that these games will cannibalize each game´s sales.
2- After a while (5-6 month) Sony will have a game droughts. They should count on themselves to space them out because third parties might cancel games if the VITA does not sell well.

They need to reacquire shelf space at retail. Launching with alot of games will give them the shelf space and exposure they need to make headway at retail.
Today is the 22... Just only 3 more months to market... =)

Ask me about the GAF Notebook
Great list of 1st party games. Grant they are mostly all known quantities, but we are getting Gravity and Escape Plan for new unique titles.
Still looking for a go to online title for launch, and it appears to be either you get one of the racers or one of the fighters. Neither of which I fear will placate to friend who wants to get a system day 1 with me. We might just download Phantasy Star Portable 2 and roll with that and get the better offline Vita games that suit our interests.

Well, you either chance cannibalization and put out a bunch of different titles for launch so that more people interested in certain games pick the system up.
Or chance slower sales due to not enough interesting games being out.
Right. Not buying this at launch.
...I'll wait a week or so, and buy one pre-owned at my work (there will be some, I bet). With discount, I'll be looking at £175 for what is essentially a brand new Wifi Vita. A memory card on top of that price doesnt look so bad to me.
cant wait.

The IQ of western games looks so much better than Japanase ones bar Ridge Racer.

"So you buying a Vita?"
"Naw, doesn't have a game I want yet"
More games mean less chance of THAT scenario happening.
Gravity Daze and HSG are both gorgeous games.

I somewhat agree to an extent, only because the post launch-window schedule looks barren.
Now, people can pick some of these games later sure, but at the same time some of these games desperately need more time in the oven.
I don't know, the release schedule seems a little too... unbalanced.
(I'll obviously sing another tune when delay reports start hitting

Why are you assuming the post-launch window schedule is barren?
It's very possible that Sony is concentrating on the launch window games before announcing more. Today proves it - two more titles suddenly snuck in at launch. I think there are a lot more titles coming than you're assuming

Maybe they took this name.
That's because it most likely is - the real name of the MK Vita game is just Mortal Kombat, like the fighting game.
