Rayman Origins had great gameplay, great reviews, great visuals, great tech and great sound. It was, in a word, great. So, news that it’s coming to PlayStation is great, too.
Over on the official PlayStation Blog, Ubisoft rep Alex Monney says that the game’s coming to the portable fully intact. Even better, you’ll be able to use a pinch gesture on the touchscreen to zoom in on the details of the game’s hand-drawn graphics.
Origins on Vita will also feature a Ghost mode where you’ll be able to download the speed runs of other players and compete against them. The Vita version of Rayman Origins hits on February 14th.

Friday, January 27, 2012 at 10:52 AMCall me crazy, but I think it would be awesome to see this game running in 3D on the 3DS. Imagine all those zany backgrounds layered, kind of like a puppet show. I’d pick that over pinch to zoom on the Vita any day.

Friday, January 27, 2012 at 12:40 PMWhat kind of pricing on Vita games are we getting in Aus? Hell what kind of pricing are the Vita’s themselves? I know it’s $350 rrp but what’s the actual price stores will flog them for on launch? Hoping for $280 like the 3DS.

Is this correct release date? The Vita isn’t out until Feb 23rd in Aus and around and a day or 2 either side of that in the US.
