E3 2011: ModNation Races (PS Vita Gameplay)

Aside from the new easy / quick track creation option, this game looks pretty much the same as it's PS3 counterpart. But the new track creation is a really cool looking gimmick when you see how it works.

You draw on the field using the OLED touch screen infront to draw out the course, then you can start shaping mountains and tress using the back touchpanel. You can also share the courses you've made online and vice versa.

There's probably a bunch of other game improvements such as new weapons, tighter controls etc btu I haven't played the first game to really know the difference.

E3 2011: Sound Shapes

I love how some of these indie games can just go all out when it comes to innovation. They try to make the best out of what little they have and make it look awesome.

In Sound Shapes you control a little ball and try to make your way across a stage. Obstacles in the environment makes sounds as they interact with each other and you and when these sounds comes together they make a really cool little beat. Kinda reminds me of some of the Bit Trip games in that respect. This is going to be a PS Vita game and even though it doesn't boast the best graphics, this looks like a really good game on the go.
