Potential Cross-Play for Sony Players?

Arrowhead Game Studios CEO confirmed today that Helljumpers will have Cross-Play (PS3/PS4/VITA). [b]What could this mean for Destiny and Sony players? Do you think we may see cross-play in Destiny as well?[/b] http://gamingbolt.com/helldivers-interview-gameplay-mechanics-stratagems-ps4-development-and-more [quote][b]Pramath Parijat: Helldiver is, by nature, a social game. Will it utilize any of the unique and powerful social capabilities that the PS4 offers developers and gamers?[/b] Johan Pilestedt: The PS4 has a lot of social features that are built-in to the machine which hardly requires any effort by the developers, such as screenshots and video (we even use the screenshot to capture any bugs we encounter while developing). The game is cross-play between the PS4/PS3/Vita – which means that you can have your friends over with their vitas and have them join you while you play. Voice is another key feature and we’re encouraging players to use the capability to coordinate with everyone for the best experience possible. [b]Pramath Parijat: Helldiver will be cross play on all three platforms that it is coming to. Can you give us some insider info on how that works? [/b] Johan Pilestedt: The game is cross-play between PS4, PS3 and PS-Vita. Basically we try to make the integration as seamless as possible, so joining someone won’t necessarily tell you which platform they’re on – this shouldn’t matter as the players will just match up with other players that are about the same rank as they are.[/quote]

    Somehow I don't see how PS Vita is logically included in the cross play there... The lack of flexibility in the vita controls seem too much of an outlier unless they've added bigger analog sticks to the design. Edit: left out the "bigger" o.o
