Cut the Rope is awesome! My brother got that when he was in China. This is the first time I hear anyone else talk about it. I'd say it's right up there with World of Goo and in a way Angry Birds.

Anyway, I touched a PS Vita. Even its rear. The screen is really nice. Sharp and vibrant. I played a level of Little Deviants, which was ok.
But it really got me thinking... what's new here? We've had touch screens for a while, we've had this "I can do everything at once!" thing with the PSP... I was missing the selling feature.

It has rear touch!

But honestly, it seems to be Sony selling it on being wonderful tech... which it is.

The problem is in a world of smart phones and tablets, you're going to need something a bit more alluring than that.

Yeah, I love Cute the Rope. It's cute, quirky, and the gameplay is amazingly intuitive.

Angry Birds has so many levels (I'm not complaining) that it feels more like a never-ending quest: so a good time killer. Cut the Rope has a ton of levels, but it is more reasonably sized.
