Why buy a PS Vita in what’s quickly becoming a smartphone/tablet world? Because you want to play serious, console-style games (with console-style controls) on the go. That’s the Vita’s promise, anyway — a souped-up, dedicated games handheld that’s as comfortable letting you tap out rhythmic dance moves on the touchscreen in something like Michael Jackson: The Experience as it is handing you a ballistically sophisticated weapon and chucking you at the bad guys in games like Metal Gear Solid HD Collection and Uncharted: Golden Abyss.
