The much-anticipated Xperia Play has been going down a storm with gaming fans, who can now experience PSP gaming on the go with the first ever Playstation certified smartphone. Two devices in one, the handset is also proving popular with retro gamers who are enjoying the opportunity to play classic Playstation games legally with the use of an emulator.
Here’s a handy round-up from PocketGamer of the best classic games for the Xperia Play & how they perform.
Of course, there’s a downside to gaming with a handheld device rather than from the comfort of your own sofa. Anyone who spends a lot of time glued to their controller knows that those things need to be able to take a lot of wear and tear, and it’s easy to envisage how a few hours a day jabbing away at your poor Xperia Play could lead to knocks and scratches.
Luckily it’s not too hard to protect your handset whilst you’re gaming with an Xperia Play screen protector, and our favourite is the InvisibleShield.
Invisible Shield Screen Protector for Xperia Play
The InvisibleShield Screen Protector for Xperia Play is made to measure, so it fits perfectly over the device’s screen, and provides completely invisible and scratch-proof protection whilst you game, text or surf the web. InvisibleShield film is the toughest available on the planet, too; originally designed by the military for use on the edges of helicopter blades, and it’s more than a match for a spot of Assassins Creed or FIFA 2010.
You can also grab an Xperia Play case via the Mobile Fun website to keep your new favourite toy safe whilst you’re on the go.
Launch of the Xperia Play and the equally-anticipated Xperia Arc got off to a bumpy start as production was severely impaired by the recent geological disasters in Japan, leading to major shipping problems and most UK networks delaying the launch of the phones.
The SIM free Xperia Play is available now via the Mobile Fun website.
