Tec Overview


Technology overview
The PS Vita has various technological features that are unique and can be used to develop some high end games comparable to a Xbox 360 title. These include a touch screen on the front of the console, and a touch pad on the rear to allow for more immersive game mechanics, a front and rear camera that can be used to create AR games, as seen with games such as reality fighters, and a 4 core processer to keep a HD crisp look to games.
This game is a PS Vita mini, as such it would be available to download through the Play station store, a online shop were owners of the latest Play station console can download games, minis, DLC, films and other media straight to their consoles.

Pro’s and Con’s
There are very few limitations within the technology of the console that would hinder the design of a game. However there are limitation with the restrictions set within the brief. The inability to use the face buttons means that the controls would have to use the touch screen and pad. This adds a light bit of immersion into my game but also makes the controls more simplified. This, in the sense of a mini is a good thing as it will make it appeal to a larger audience and possibly even port into a app for Iphone or android with a few tweaks.
