Lumines Heading To PS Vita

Lumines was the PSP launch game that kept me and my Japanese PSP very, very happy for months.  That, alongside Ridge Racer, very much defined the whole portable until it appeared on European shelves.

[drop2]So, it’s with huge delight that Ubisoft are pushing the game out for PS Vita, and although it’s currently only being listed as “currently in development” I’ve personally got high hopes that the publisher won’t screw this one up.

“With its processing power, dual tactile screens and cameras, PS Vita allows creators like Ubisoft new and unique opportunities to develop innovative games,”said Yves Guillemot, chief executive officer of Ubisoft in a press release.

“We’ve got a strong and varied line-up that will offer fun and immersion to all audiences of the PS Vita.”

That line-up?  Asphalt, Assassin’s Creed, Dungeon Hunter Alliance, Lumines, Michael Jackson the Experience and Rayman Origins.  Rayman looks lovely, Asphalt I’m a little tired of, Dungeon Hunter was nice on the PS3 and I’ve little time for Assassin’s Creed.

It’s all about Lumines.  Please be good.

  1. Alien Spidey is also looking like a good game :)

    • It does! And it’s refreshing to see a fearful spider after playing LIMBO :)

  2. Hehe, yup, the party hasn’t started until Lumines arrives.

  3. Lumines in some form or another is pretty much a staple of my gaming diet. If I buy a Vita, Lumines is a done deal.

  4. Lumines is awesome. Love the music and the way it’s affected by combos.

  5. Assassin’s Creed. That’s all I need to know from Ubisoft for Vita. If Sony price Vita right, it’s day one for me along with AC.

    • I doubt AC will be a launch title but I can’t wait for it either. Apparently it’s a new assassin too (my iPod managed to cut out just before the announcement)!

  6. Wow, their line-up is actually decent, unlike their 3DS offerings…. LUMINES :OOOOOOO

    • I agree. That is a pretty strong line-up of games from them. Really hope other third parties follow suit.

  7. Lumines? Day one purchase now.
