To All Doubting Vita's Future, 4 Words: PORTABLE....CALL...OF.... DUTY

No one is going to migrate from consoles to vita to play CoD when the biggest aspect of CoD is online and the Vita doesn't support 3G network online gaming.

Dear God NO!!!!

Why play CoD Portable on the Vita when you can play MW3 on your 50" LED PS3/Xbox?

The main thing about Monster Hunter is its exclusivity. You either buy a 3DS to play Monster Hunter, or you don't play it at all. CoD is released on so many systems that the chances of you having a system that can play CoD is high. Who would shell out another $300 just to play CoD when you already have CoD on PS3/Xbox

and you'll be playing with a Wifi Connection.

You might as well be playing Call of Duty on a PS3 or Xbox 360.

It's irrelevant to talk about DS/PSP CoD because they're experience differ so much from the console. Lack of 2nd Analog killed it on the PSP. In IGN's preview of Resistance Burning Skies, they talk about how it is the nearest FPS handheld that duplicates consoles.

Also, unless the dev messes it up, the superior version will always be on the Vita than on 3DS.

A big problem they'll have is convincing people to pay 50$ for the same game twice.

They should bundle the ps3/VITA versions for an extra 10$, with cloud saving, earning prestige on the go, etc... and really show this in a commercial.

Hmmm... Thinking about it, I could see all those damn rascals runnig around with their Vitas, playing COD online with eachother during recess breaks. It could be the new Pokemon.

im really surprised SONY didn't get on this sooner.

Instead they have Hot Shots Golf? A game that looks and plays the same on PSP? and a bunch of touch-based games that don't showcase the true advantage of the VITA, the dual-analog sticks.

They need to have games like COD, Skyrim, AC, BF3, etc on day 1 to shake the image that portable playstations are just consoles with gimped controls.

If one was in the desire to play Call of Duty such systems already exist and it is deemed unnecessary to waste more money on a new system

p.s Does anyone know if vita games will be on disks or if it will be UMDS ect? I know that the PSP used UMDS.actionjunkie10

no something more efficient than disk or UMDs, cartridges

If 3G could be used for the game on the Vita you might have had a point (Keyword might) since it cannot you will be forced to play COD on a wireless network anyway so now explain why anyone would chose to play a handheld version of COD at home (Unless they actively search out a free Wireless network or tether their Vita/Carry around pocket wifi for the Vita) when the console version is sitting right there to use on a bigger screen????????

COD is not played for the single player experience (It barely has one to begin with) so being on a handheld means nothing if you can't easily and comfortably get online with it anywhere. You cannot honestly expect your average player to call up his buddies on any random day and tell them to get their Vita's for an online COD session -_- the obvious response to that would be what's the point if were at home we might as well play the console version.

I know you can get a 3G PSV but the 3G can't be used for gaming

I think they got that part nailed already

MW3 sold millions even after MW1 and MW2

Only $10 extra? when did Activision become so generous?

The 3g thing does limit the COD factor considerably.

But Sony should still push games like Skyrim in the US, and Final Fantasy 15 or whatever in Japan, where you can continue leveling up your characters when you leave the house.
