I would hope that's the case, but I don't take any of this common sense stuff for granted anymore.

I've refused to buy any PSN Neo games specifically because they expect you to buy it twice if you want it on PSP and PS3. Fuck that.

[Yoshi]

Ditto. And I would own most if not all of them if they combined them.

[Timber]

Yeah, I've passed on their Neo selection (other than the PSP Baseball Stars 2) but I've bought quite a few of their old arcade game Minis which play on PS3 & PSP & Vita (well at least a couple are Vita ready).

DO YOU HEAR THAT SNKP???

I think we need to type louder.

While they're fixing the cross compatibility, they should add Trophy support. </whore>

Crossbuy is the right move, agreed. I don't think it's been confirmed yet, but I expect that the PS3 games will include a download code/voucher for the Vita version - thus Sony can use the value proposition of the Crossbuy games to not only push Vita hardware on PS3 owners but also the proprietary Vita memory cards.

I would be (pleasantly) surprised if we see a $60 Crossbuy version of NFS Most Wanted from EA, their interest is strictly selling their games. Maybe they sell it though at a higher price.

My interest remains in the standalone physical Vita copies, as I don't own a PS3 and probably won't be picking up a bigger card when/if I get the Vita.

Really looking forward to finding out more about the Vita version of Most Wanted. I'm excited about the game itself, and the prospect of an awesome version readily available on the Vita is very appealing. Also interested in Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time, as I did enjoy the original iirc.

Tearaway, the new Vita game by Media Molecule, was also revealed yesterday. It looks great:

by Media Molecule ... looks great

Does. not. compute.

edit: Actually, LBP looked great too.

This is true... I'm sure puzzled by why I can't see my friends' Vita trophies on my PS3 but they can see my PS3 trophies on their Vitas. At least the patch for using non-touch controls on the home screen is coming.
