Minimalist platformer Thomas Was Alone comes to PS3 and Vita

Thomas Was Alone on PC, but now he'll have company on PS3 and PS Vita. Developer Mike Bithell is bringing his minimalist platformer, about the coordinated escape of a rectangle and his new friends the, um, other rectangles, to Sony platforms with Cross Buy this spring.

As you go through the levels, using different quadrilateral characters' different properties together, " you'll hear an awesome story narrated by Danny Wallace (Assassin's Creed) and scored by the epically talented David Housden," Bithell explains. "On PS Vita, you can use the touchscreens to select characters, or to control the camera."

The new console version of the game will include "creator's commentary," and will be the first version to receive a DLC prologue "about a square who is given a jetpack."

I saw a tweet about that last night and had no clue what they were talking about.

Best Buy has the memory cards on "sale". Don't remember all the prices but the 32 gb is at the lowest prices it's been in the past....$75.

I am playing my Vita more lately...

[Twigg4075]

Oh, by the way, FUCK AT&T. I I think most of us already know what a shitty company they are but last week took the cake. For those that aren't aware they had a big sale on ALL Vita games and accessories, including memory cards. I believe everything was 50% off. It was pretty obvious they were trying to get rid of stock. At first I had no clue why they would even be sling the stuff but then I remembered they have the exclusive 3G provider contract so it made sense. Well, several days later, it looks like they canceled everyone's orders citing a "computer glitch" even though the cancellation emails stated they ran out of stock. The best part was that they still charged everyone and the credit won't be refunded for a few more days.

Fuck that company.

How is the battery life in the Vita? I'm tempted to get one so I can play MLB The Show on work breaks.

the battery life is quite good David.

[Twigg4075]

Yeah, I would say you get a solid six hours or so on a single charge. And that is solid gaming time.

THANKS BILL.

[Twigg4075]

Yeah, I'm guessing not even Bill could do anything to fix that cluster fuck.

Bill could get you a lunch with Tim Duncan and Tony Parker, but wouldn't be able to fix that mess.
