Another PS3 title will be heading to the NGP – this time its Hustle Kings. When Hustle Kings came out for PS3 in late 2009, it was lauded for its visuals. And for good reason – it’s the finest looking billiards game ever created. This time, Hustle Kings for NGP will feature not only great visuals, but also the integration of touchscreen controls.

NGP Preview: Super Stardust Delta
Super Stardust makes it way to Sony’s upcoming portable console, and it’s going to be a blast thanks to the NGP’s dual analog sticks (a portable first!). Super Stardust Delta should feel instantly familiar to anyone who’s experienced Super Stardust HD on PS3. But it’s important to note – Delta is not a port of that 2007 classic. It’s an entirely new game.
NGP Will Be Backwards Compatible
Sony has confirmed that its upcoming next generation portable (or NGP) will offer full backwards compatibility support with all the PSP games available in the PlayStation Network library. Scott Rohde, SCEA’s VP of Product Development, revealed the news at Sony’s Press Event earlier today.
