PlayStation Blog reveals free to download PS Vita games

Frobisher Says and t@g both part of the PlayStation Vita Discovery Apps program.

The EU PlayStation Blog has revealed that two upcoming PlayStation Vita titles, Frobisher Says and t@g, will be free to download in May.

Discovery Apps are designed to showcase the Vita's unique control options and hardware. Frobisher Says is a collection of 50 mini-games that uses the front and rear touch, motion, camera, and face recognition. t@g uses GPS (and therefore requires a 3G model Vita) to let users place graffiti onto real life buildings using augmented reality - tag high-profile targets to earn points and see where you rank on the online leaderboard.

While both titles will be free to download in May, Frobisher Says will be available on February 22 for those of you who took part in a Vita pre-order promotion.

PS Vita launches in the UK on February 22 - Amazon currently has the best pre-order deal, which includes a free 8GB memory card and the option to buy a launch game for £15.

Oh, and Game and Gamestation now both have the 8GB deal in place of 4GB, good deals if you use trade ins as well.

I'm the opposite, everywhere I go I get 3DS Streetpass hits. I'm sure Vita will be the same, but Tag just relies on 3G so I won't be Ble to use that with the Wifi only version.

t@g and other similar games sounds kinda interesting, but it's gonna suffer from the same problem as the 3DS's streetpass feature I'd say. In smaller areas or places with less owners of the consoles, there's gonna be less people using the features - so much less people to the point where the feature kinda just become useless.

The 3DS for example - I carry it with me daily, and even when I visit the busiest part of town where I am I rarely get any hits. I have had the 3DS pretty much since launch, and I've had maybe 20 hits total.
