Proteus’ Now Avaliable On The PlayStation 3 And Vita

‘Proteus’ Now Avaliable On The PlayStation 3 And Vita
Sony continues to show their support for the indies by releasing the PC hit, Proteus, on both the PS3 and PS Vita.

Chances are if you follow the indie scene Proteus should sound familiar to you. Proteus is an interesting exploration game which embraces the idea of simply exploring a beautiful landscape in which everything has its own sound as you interact with it.

Proteus contains no real goal and has for this reason often been criticised, and has raised the question of what is a game? As more games forgo the common gaming archetypes for more abstract ideas, the lines between art, games, and movies, blur ever more.

As the game is procedurally generated expect every play through to be something a little different as you walk around in amazement at the beautiful scenery that is unique to your experience.

Interestingly enough the PlayStation Vita version allows you to generate the worlds not only based on the current date but on your location as well adding a great deal of verity, and for the globetrotters amongst us the ability to see how the game changes from location to location.

Proteus is available from the PSN store at $13.99 (US), £9.99 (UK), and €12.99 (Mainland EU). The game is also running a 10% discount in all regions for the first two weeks, and if you’re a PlayStation Plus member you can add an extra 10% to that.
