Foursquare, Skype to be supported in Playstation VitaAugust 17, 2011 - 13:23 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - Sony announced a few new features for their new handheld console, the Vita. Among them was support for Foursquare and Skype, TechChrunch reported. The references were made at the Gamescom gaming conference in Cologne while talking about the 3G capabilities. More powerful than most phones and sporting a large, bright touchscreen and dual cameras, the Vita should be able to handle these services perfectly well. Sony has a system-wide voice chat and friends list, and Twitter is already integrated to some extent, but these new services may also reach into games. Becoming the mayor of an in-game location could become a new source of points for check-in addicts. In addition to these announcements, it was confirmed that all Vita games will be downloadable. But an unconditional promise of downloadability is a smart one to make, it’s very “next-gen.” The Vita will be hitting the U.S. market some time in early 2012.
