“Purchase the game once and you can use it on both the PS3 and PS Vita.”

This is something I have been wanting on every game to come in the future that is related to cross play. I really wish MGS HD Collection for PS3 would be free on PS Vita as well but its a shame we have to buy two separate games for two separate platforms. But MGS HD Collection is an exception & it will be the only game I am willing to pay for both platforms. I don’t own a PS Vita yet, I am waiting for a price cut because its not worth paying $250 for. As much as I love the PSV & am loyal to SONY games only, I just don’t think PSV is enough to satisfy me at $250/$300. It doesn’t have 720p & 8MP for both front & rear camera, doesn’t have internal memory with at least 32GB/64GB or so, is only limited to one PSN account per memory card, there is only 32GB for memory card & its at least $100 bucks, & there is so much more reasons why I wouldn’t get it at this time for $250. I love the PSV but its just not for me right now for such a high price. If it came out 2 or 3 years ago as it should’ve then I would’ve probably bought it. As much as I would like to get this game & PSV, I am just gonna wait it out until the time is right.

Minis are different, because there is only one version of a minis game, that is native to PSP, and that runs within an emulator on PS3 and Vita.
So, if minis ever had trophies (they won’t), it would be just one trophy set.

I definitely like the sound of implenting everything to make the 2 versions behave like 1 game. And I hope a lot more PSN games follow your lead!

However, if this becomes the standard for PSN (which I really hope it does) I’ll still hold on to hope that Sony thinks of something down the line that addresses double trophies, half of which will feel undeserved to me. (Probably not though I can’t see too many people complaining about double trophies).

If minis had trophies, would we earn them twice by playing through on the PS3 and then on Vita?

@29: Variety is the spice of life. Maybe you should try it sometime.

And you realize that many games are in development at the same time right? Because… there are many different developers out there… it’s not like these guys are in charge of providing every single PS Vita game ever created and instead of making something YOU view as “worthy” they’re making this.

Come back down to reality.

Whether there will be the buy-one-get-one-free offer always depends on the developer or publisher. We are a 3rd party as well, as Foosball 2012 is self-published by Grip Games. The fact that we will offer the PS3 and PS Vita versions for one price was our decision and every other developer/ publisher who publishes the same game for PS3 and PS Vita can do the same thing.
If you see a game on the PSN that has both PS3 and PS Vita versions and you need to pay for both, you only need to do that because the publisher of the game decided so.
