Can someone point out the major differences between LoadRunner and Performance Center? My little research shows that both can be used for load testing and performance monitoring. What additional features are provided by Performance Center? Is VUGen a part of Performance Center?

Performance Center (also known as LoadRunner Enterprise) is a cross-enterprise tool for planning and running multiple performance test projects. It enables you to remotely monitor concurrent tests across different geographic locations.
LoadRunner Cloud allows you to lever- age existing scripts—created in best-of-breed scripting applications such as LoadRunner Developer, VuGen, TruClient, and DevWeb— while also supporting third-party open-source tools such as JMeter, Gatling, and Selenium.
LoadRunner is a software testing tool from Micro Focus. It is used to test applications, measuring system behaviour and performance under load. LoadRunner can simulate thousands of users concurrently using application software, recording and later analyzing the performance of key components of the application.
Let me try to give a little less sales-oriented and more technical slant (without the rant).
Performance Center runs multiple copies of LoadRunner.
Performance Center adds a web app to schedules time on the various LoadRunner machines. Allocating time also implies allocating the number of "vusers" that has been purchased.
