Sony showing off Vita and PlayStation TV at EGX

While the big shows are over for the year, Sony and developers are still turning up to try and make an impact, with London's EGX kicking off today, later in Manchester, Paris Games Week next month, one in spain and a series of more indie events. 

At EGX, Sony will be showing off a bunch of indies for the Vita (no Freedom Wars though) and there will be a new announcement from OlliOlli maker Roll 7. You should get to play Minecraft on Vita and see PlayStation TV in action. 

Other games on the list include Bigfest, recently announced Shu, Super Exploding Zoo, Oddworld and others. If anyone's at any of these events, let us know the vibe and any interest in Vita?
