PS Vita Pets plays fetch on June 3
PlayStation Vita Pets, the pet simulation-meets-adventure game from Spiral House, will launch June 3 in North America and June 4 in Europe. In the game, players choose from four different dogs, care for them, then explore Castlewood Island to "uncover the long lost legend of a king and his dog." Sony's answer to Nintendogs was announced in August, at which point it was revealed that the animals in the game talked like humans. PlayStation Blog noted today that the game features roughly 10,000 lines of spoken dialogue, which is around 10,000 more lines than you'd expect to hear out of any animal. [Image: SCEE]
PlayStation Vita Pets announced, coming to Europe in 2014
Sony announced its own Nintendogs-like game for Vita today called PlayStation Vita Pets. The game has players choosing one of four dogs to take care of and dress up in costumes, then take on adventures in places like castles. Additionally, the game features an augmented reality mode so players can take their virtual dogs out in their real-life yards. Each dog also speaks like a human, just like in real life. PlayStation Vita Pets will launch across Europe in 2014. There is no word yet on a North American release for the game. %Gallery-196064%
Alone in the Dark: The New Nightmare rated for PS3 by ESRB
If a recently published ESRB rating is any indication, Sony is getting ready to re-release Alone in the Dark: The New Nightmare on PS3 -- which, considering the original came out in 2001, might need a new subtitle. The rating might indicate that the game is simply being ported over as a PSOne Classic on PSN; however, ESRB ratings for such releases usually include a PSP designation, as well. Should the generally well-received horror title be remade for PS3, it would make for an interesting cross-platform hat trick -- The New Nightmare's already appeared on PS1 and PS2. We get this bad boy on the PSP, NGP and Xperia Play, and all of a sudden, we might be looking at a new PlayStation brand mascot: Gun-Couple! The couple with guns.
