Sony Computer Entertainment Europe (SCEE) has today launched Invizimals: The Lost Tribes, a new PlayStation Portable (PSP) exclusive title. Developed by Novarama, Invizimals: The Lost Tribes is the third title in the popular Invizimals videogame series.
While the Nintendos 3DS hasnt had the best of starts, with poor sales, a terrible launch line-up and fears over 3Ds safety, one thing that gamers and critics have complemented is the handhelds augmented games but Invizimals developer Novarama thinks that Nintendo may have drawn on their game for ideas, and that the games have room for improvement.
The title of Sony Computer Entertainment Europe (SCEE) for PSP is an amazing bet that applies the technology known as 'augmente reality'. The game also features a platform as a trap, which is essential for players to capture more than a hundred beings created and included in the software through your PSP and the camera Go! Cam.
Following an impressive augmented reality presentation at gamescom last month which featured both EyePet and Invizimals, VideoGamer.com had the chance to fire some tough questions at Invizimals lead designer Daniel Sanchez-Crespo of developer Novarama. VideoGamer.com: Do you think the game could be as successful as Pokemon? Daniel Sanchez-Crespo: Yeah, why not.

Kotaku: In Invizimals, gamers will use the Playstation Portable and a camera attachment to scan their homes, yards, surroundings in the hunt for invisible creatures to capture, train and later fight. The augmented reality game uses the camera to place moving 3D creatures in a players real world, as seen through the PSP's screen. But because it relies on the camera to work, it won't be a game you play on the PSPGo when it's released.
Details on the upcoming PlayStation Portable game Invizimals reveals that a PSP/PSP Go Camera is likely coming to North America. A couple of game trailers for Invizimals also shows the augmented reality gameplay on the PSP Go system. Watch two trailers for Invizimals, one featuring the original PSP Camera and another one showing the game on the PSP Go system.
