AW Game Review: Mortal Kombat Vita

Mortal Kombat Vita review feature 530x232 AW Game Review: Mortal Kombat Vita

For those of you who have waited in anticipation of “Mortal Kombat” on Sony’s newest handheld, your wait is officially over. Today, fans can officially purchase, or download (will use about 3GB of storage on your memory card), “Mortal Kombat” for the PlayStation Vita.

MK on the Vita is not just a port of the Komplete Edition that was released on the consoles in February of this year. The Vita version actually has more content including all of the DLCs from the Komplete Edition and then some.

Some of the new features is the addition of “Klassic Skins” that will have the old school MK fans feeling all warm and TOASTY! inside.

Many of the early impressions mentioned some disappointment in the graphics as far as gameplay goes and I say, to hell with them. “Mortal Kombat” for the Vita has amazing environments and a smooth frame rate that should be expected from a fast-paced fighting game. Though the character models are a bit flat, it really is reminiscent of the old arcade versions, and I mean that in a good way. Read the rest of this entry »

A new video surfaced on YouTube of a PlayStation Vita owner playing “Batman: Arkham City” and “Battlefield 3″ on the handhold console. The 4.0 update to the Vita supports the Remote Play feature in tandem with the PlayStation 3, but we are blown away with how well some of the newer titles are handled.

AT&T data plans for the PlayStation Vita have been announced

Nothing really new here if you are familiar with data plans on the Apple iPad.

The PlayStation Vita will be available in 2 models: one that will have Wi-Fi and 3G capabilities and one that will only have Wi-Fi. Those that want to take their internet access with them where ever they go will most likely opt for the 3G compatible console which will not only be $50 more expensive (at $299 USD) but will also require a monthly service plan from AT&T.

The service plan will not require users to be stuck with a contract, which is nice, but the prices seem a bit heft for data. Like the Apple iPad, the plans start at $14.99 a month for 250MB of data which can be a lot depending how you use it (I have never gone over my 250MB on my iPad as there are hotspots everywhere). The other option would be $25 a month and give the users 2GB of data.

Those who sign up for an AT&T data plan will be given a free downloadable game along with access to AT&T hotspots around the country.

Sony PlayStation Vita to release on October 28, 2011?

Posted by Daniel Nasserian On July - 29 - 2011

A reservation list from Blockbuster in the UK has put a date on a PlayStation Vita release as early as October 28 of this year. There has been much speculation as to when the hardware will be released worldwide and most people were hoping for a fall or pre-holiday release.

Well if the British Blockbuster has it right, the Vita could be available just before Halloween. After playing it at E3, it seemed like we got a hands-on with a pretty stable and finalized version of the powerful new Sony handheld. The only thing we could see getting in the way of an early release date would be manufacturing issues which Sony tends to be pretty good about.

We will bring you any updates as they come in.
