Some fun features, but nothing I couldn't already do with my Vita. If I am able to actually play Watch_Dogs using my phone as Aiden though I will totally be a bit more impressed. Hells, I'll be impressed once developers start using the PS App to allow for cool gameplay features in their games. Until then though I see this as being just an extension to their website for those who don't have a PS Vita yet. I could be wrong though, so we'll see when it hits iOS and Android devices in the coming month.
