Report: PlayStation Vita memory 'about ten times' that of PSP [update]
Sony hasn't officially shared the PlayStation Vita's technical specifications, and rumors insist that the amount of memory in the system has been cut since developers originally got on board. Daniel S?nchez-Crespo, CEO of Invizimals Novarama developer who recently delivered some soothing setting for these claims in an interview with Develop and said that his studio was "untouched" of a rumor, RAM reduction.
"It 's really good for developers who are working under duress," he said. "In general, for Vita, we still have a lot of leeway in terms of GPU performance, CPU power and RAM, in fact." According to S?nchez-Crespo, bests the Life 's amount of RAM (Random ". times" access memory) that the PSP by the \ with the first PSP to do with 32MB - yes, really - that would be the Vita somewhere in the range of at least 256 MB.

Here 's the first of our (hopefully) weekly roundup of some games that slipped under the radar can - like Hello Kitty & Friends, The First Templar and Esoterica America
Ape Escape ... 
PS3 (Move Compatible) ? 24.99, cert 3 +, Sony
The Ape Escape series is not without its charms. On previous PlayStations this cartoony catch-em-up was a minor joy, inviting players to hop around a 3D platform world apprehending simian lags with an oversized butterfly net. But this time the whole shebang has been revamped specially for PlayStation Move, meaning a switch to a first-person perspective for an on-rails shooting-gallery affair: you shoot at the apes with your slingshot, lightgun-style; the apes get angry; they run straight for you; you swing the controller to swing your net and catch them when they get close. If catching an ape felt brilliant and funny and satisfying every time which to an extent it did in the old games the game might have more lasting appeal, but since it's more or less whack-a-mole with no actual whacking, it all pales pretty quickly. Jolly enough for a quick blast, and a surprisingly stiff challenge in the later levels, but this is not the reboot Ape Escape deserves.

What the strange timing of this release: it was exhibited in Tokyo and thus time for Japan but ... Japan is one of the three places that isn 't affected by this news. Just something to think about as you're reading this at like 1 AM.
