Shown at Sony’s gamescom press conference, the PlayStation Vita will serve as an extra screen and controller for LittleBigPlanet 2 with this newly announced cross-controller DLC pack. With this, you’ll use the Vita as a controller while you play the PS3 game on your television. Confused?
The Vita can show a unique view of the game in single-player, but can do so much more for you in four-player multiplayer, Media Molecule says. We saw an obstacle block on a stage moved through the Vita’s screen using touch features. Puzzles in the demo all seem to mix Vita touchpad play with standard LBP-style platforming, though some segments will have Sackboy moving from the PS3 screen to the Vita screen, and will have you moving the standard controls for that.
