    No online play confirmed, what the the hell are they thinking?

    http://vita.ign.com/articles/121/1216411p1.html Sorry for not linking, I'm on an iPad. Seriously I was really hyped for this game, big fan of the PS3 version that I still pop in from time to time, but this has completely changed my mind and I cancelled my pre-order. How can you launch a game like this in 2012 with no head to head online? I thought this was going to satisfy my portable kart racing needs but I guess I'll pick up Mario Kart 7.

    I only posted the link because I couldn't write anything else.
     
    It's completely messed up that they have taken out online play. That was kind of the point to the game, wasn't it?

    There are strong complaints about the lack of co-op in the Vita Rayman game, too. I wonder if developers just haven't had enough time to incorporate these features or if it's a sign of something more problematic.

    @PenguinDust I think it's the typical launch rush development bullshit. We've seen a couple stand outs on the 3DS, like Star Fox's lack of online multiplayer, and Modnation, along with your example of Rayman, seem to be the standouts of games that should have standard features but don't. Seriously this was probably my most anticipated game and now there is no way in hell I'm buying it. I guess Wipeout will be my Vita racing game, at least that is confirmed to have online play between Vita and even PS3 players.
