Had the privilege to check out a few of the Vita’s upcoming games, and one that definitely caught my eye was the new Street Fighter X Tekken Game for the Vita. It’s currently out for the major consoles like PS3 and XBox360.

There are a few things that make this game worth the extra dough.

First, the developer I spoke with, Seth Killian, said that players of the Vita version would be able to play with anyone playing the console version which means both games are virtually the same! Not only that, but there will be added characters for the Vita Version that will come standard who won’t be on the console version unless you purchase them as DLC.

Playing the Vita version took a little getting used to with the smaller buttons and D-Pad, however, after a couple of warm-ups, I was throwing Hadoukens with the best of ’em. Graphics were amazing so I can see how you could play vs. any using the console version of the game. Animations were very smooth and contiguous. Look out for it in the coming months.

I’m sure you’ve heard of Sony’s new handheld gaming system called the PS Vita. You know about the 5″ screen, and the front and rear facing cameras. You may also know about it’s wi-fi, 3G, and Bluetooth connectivity. However, have you actually handled one? Held it gently in your arms and played the day away? If not, then here’s your chance! Sony has set up 8 “Social Clubs” around the country for people to go to, to experience the Vita. The eight towns are: San Francisco, Los Angeles, Miami, Atlanta, New York, Boston, Chicago, and Austin. You can go here for more information. I went to the one in New York located at 154 Stanton Street, New York, NY. They hooked us up with free snacks and beverages as well as let us play as long as we wanted on the Vitas strewn across the many tables in the room. The hip decoration and trendy music made for a vibrant and cool experience. You also get to sign up for free which locks you in to the possibility of winning a Vita for yourself. If you haven’t gone yet, you better hurry as the promotion ends on the 22nd!

A couple of the games you’ll be able to play are listed below. There’s also some pretty cool footage of some of the games and their developers, so click the links below.
