PS All-Stars will run at 60 FPS on PS Vita

21 Sep, 2012

PlayStation All-Stars: Battle Royale Vita will be identical to the PS3 version, according to developer Bluepoint.

On a post on the PS Blog, the developer explained that the Vita version will incude an arcade mode, online modes, player progression system, unlockables and customization, all of which will also be released on the PS3.

?The connectivity and gameplay is a frame-perfect, seamless experience. The only separation between the versions is where players choose to play, not which platform,? said senior producer Daryl Allison.

?Bringing the very best out of this portable platform has led our team at Bluepoint to hit back with a combo of high-end math and old-school dev tricks. It hasn?t been easy, but we?re doing it, and all with the game blazing at 60 frames per second.?

Allison also said that gameplay will be consistent across both platforms, meaning that someone playing on one console won't have an advantage over the other.

?We regularly grab raw HD data and 240 FPS video to check that input latency, rendering fidelity and ?the awesome? remains tight. Running at 60 FPS is as much for the smoothness of the graphics as for the controls.

?It?s important that there are no advantages (or disadvantages) due to the different hardware ? no network lag, no input lag, so PlayStation All-Stars on PS Vita must be ? and is ? tuned to have the same tight gameplay responsiveness. From button press to character action, the quality of fighting is upheld to PS3 standards.?

The Vita and PS3 versions also keep track of player progress across both systems, while you can also use your Vita as a PS3 controller.

PlayStation All-Stars is out this October. Buy the PS3 version and you'll get the Vita version for free.

Thanks, VG247.

“ Interesting boast but it is a simple fighter and nothing less is expected. From a technical point of view using the same assets as the Vita is extremely interesting. Now if they could get something like Kill zone 3 to work on the Vita @ 60 FPS Sony would have something special to combat the Wii U. ”

“ They do. It's called the Playstation 3. Does everything the Wii U does at a much lower price and has an infinitely better catalogue of games available and forthcoming. ”

“ Well, from what I've played so far, it's already shaping up to be more fun than Smash Bros Brawl. Having a working online component really makes the difference in a game like this. When's the next Smash released then? ”

“ I wasn't aware there was any online fighting games in the 90's. Besides it's a lot more fun playing someone next to you, and they can't quit on you when you are winning either. ”

“ Also why is there a Big Daddy from Bioshock in there? Last time I checked Bioshock wasn't a Sony property. ”

“ Sounds good to me! The Vita (as long as more good games come out) is shaping up to be a great hand held. 60FPS should look really smooth on a small device such as that. Also, the game looks like it'll be great fun on both the Vita and the PS3. ”

“ Played a bit of this and it really is incredibly impressive. Plays very smoothly and is a lot of fun. The fact that the Vita version of the game is going to be free with the PS3 version is just an insanely awesome sounding deal. Day one buy. ”

“ Impressive if it's all true, I generally prefer playing games on my vita now so it's nice to see a lot of effort going in to making it equal with the ps3 version. Definitely interested in picking this game up at some point :). ”

“ I've only played a bit but I love the beta too! It's fantastic, I'm really glad it's identical to the PS3 version though, I can see me playing this a whole lot! I just want that Crash announcement to set my purchase in stone! Though I think that cross-buy already did that... ”

“ Can't wait for this game! Granted it's a SSB clone (kinda) but then again look at all other genre's of games. They all took ideas from other franchises, this being no different. Glad the Vita folks are getting some love. ”
