Earlier today, we saw Sony’s PlayStation Vita show off its AT&T cellular chops with Unit 13, and now we’ve got the quad-core handheld demonstrating another augmented reality title. In case you’re unaware, the US and European versions of the PlayStation Vita will come with six AR cards when they go on sale this February, and you can download a bunch of games: This one is Table Football, which turns the cards into goals, grandstands and a scoreboard. You can place them however you like, spreading them apart for a larger field, or closer in for a smaller one, and when you score a goal, the field gets re-rendered with fuller 3D graphics to show off the replay. Of course, you’d already know all that if you watched the video to begin with!
