PlayStation Network Thread (Vita/PS3/PS4/PSP) | February 2014

You already hate it though :lol

I'm going to. Can't wait to throw my money at it.
I forgot about that. Gotta wake up for Women's Curling and Hockey. There's some dead time in there though because NBC sucks.
Honestly Sony, the longer they stay quiet on a Buzz/Singstar update, the closer I get to thinking it's not coming. Surely they won't just leave Singstar to die with all that DLC money available to them. I have a feeling that Buzz might be gone given that they closed down the PS3 servers though :(

Edit - Top of the page recommendation, only one this week, the one worth worrying about, TxK on the Vita, make sure you get it!
It'll happen. Singstar has too much work put into it and it's a cumulative thing. Sony London has been uber-quiet. They only thing they've put out is working with Firesprite and Double Fine for Playroom. SCE London is one of those big studios too. I wouldn't be surprised if they made a big AAA Core game. It'd be great.
 
You forgot that you hated it? wut.
Is the Hockey early Monday morning or something?
Well, I want to like it. I just don't. And it takes a lot of energy to hate. I just don't do it when it's not relevant.

Hockey is all the time. I'm just gonna try and catch the US and Russian ones though. And NBC is rub by some incompetent boob. It's in worse shape than the final season of 30 Rock portrays it as. So basically, random events air at random times on random networks. Sucks.

Just tell me when you play it plox. Need to hear dat reaction lol
Try not to do it Monday night between 7-10 PM PT. Have class :(
 
I normally don't buy any used/refurb'd games or consoles, but I'll definitely check that out.

Thanks for the info.
I've bought three Vitas from there - two grade 5s and a 6. The two 5s each had about three scratches total (nothing deep), and the 6 had exactly one tiny ding on the back. In short, anything 5 or better is probably going to pass muster unless you're very particular about the condition of your electronic devices.

If you can find one at Amazon Warehouse, their customer service is going to be better, but you're going to have to be patient and hunt for one.

Because it's getting pulled and replaced with a PSP game instead.

Sound like a good deal. I may dig into one eventually. Another used Vita. Or y'know, a V2K.
 
Aboust Dustforce. So there is a lot of people already on twitter commenting about the issues of the game , i did my part too , and all the responses from Hitbox are the same ("we are looking into it"). So to all the people complaining about the game you should do the same .

If Sony make SingStar an app and place it front and centre so I always land on it when I turn on my PS4 I'll scream at them.

Trying not to add to my backlog, but will make an exception for this.

Aren't Hitbox the original team as opposed to the ones responsible for the port?

Ok, change of plans.

I am getting Bravely Default and Toukiden. The latter would be physical instead of digital, since physical is cheaper here than digital.

I originally planned on getting it digital but ah well....
 
Well, you must buy that game anyway.
Absolutely will.

Nice! That's really good to hear. Thanks a lot for the info.

Ehh I'm kinda cynical about those indies generally.

Most of them look like something done on NDS and then they are asking 12-15 euro for them.


I can pay that price for Assault Android Cactus and Frozen Synapse but not for 8 bit era production values ;)

how much cheaper?
you can sell the physical once the digital goes on sale

They come from a mobile background, so I wouldn't expect to be gouged too much on the pricing. And I'm not sure I get the production values dig - graphics and production values aren't analogous.

EDIT: Here is the blog post I mentioned.

Not that the game itself is cheaper mind you, but rather I have to buy 50 bucks PSN if I want to get it digitally and in here it cost around... 63-ish bucks. Of course I will have extra 10 bucks in my wallet but eh, I don't know for what I am gonna use that since I just want Toukiden.

Going physical, I just need to fork around 48-ish bucks instead 63-ish. Not bad....

Can't you register fake american adress at amazon and get psn codes from there ?

I don't have a credit card and I don't intend to.

Perhaps one of these days I need to grab me one of those, huh, hahaha.

Although in the end I think it won't make that much of a difference. It's the monetary value of the currency of my country against US dollar that really screw things up, sigh.
 
Probably should have mentioned it before the week of release, but is anyone (US only) interested in a copy of Toukiden at 20% off shipped 2-day?

No PayPal? It wouldn't be hard to get US PSN credit at face value or at a discount that way.
 
Killzone Mercenary runs on native resolution on Vita, and it looks stunning!.
Having a really hard time thinking that MGS2 should be more taxing on the system then Killzone, so MGS2 is probably just down to a bad port.

It doesn't run at native res...
it goes to a lower res to preserve the framerate and when you stop moving the camera (to take a screenshot or look at a texture or w/e) it switches back to native res

it does have msaa which makes it have less jaggies than other non native res games

A few months ago, Idea Factory announced that they have signed a contract with Disgaea developer Yamamoto Masahiro. It will also be released for Vita on 2014 as a Compile Heart title. It will be announced on a game magazine this week.

Apparently the staff will have
Disgaea's Yamamoto Masahiro
Disgaea's Satou Tenpei
Neptune/Agarest producer Kochiwa Keiji
Monster Monpiece's Kitano Makoto
Mugen Souls' character designer NANAMEDAKEI.

Keywords:
One trillion souls
Blood-tie
A fight that risks one's life
Manner of death
Connect memories
A main character that's about to die from the start

It is thought to be the first title of Compile Heart's new brand "Makai 1 Bankan"(魔界1番館) that was announced today. (Coz CH mentioned that MK1BK's first title will be announced in this week's Dengeki PlayStation.)

P.S. The names here are how I think they are read. I am too lazy to wiki each and every one of them.

P.P.S. Not sure if this has been mentioned before and I'm too tired to skim more than 2 pages back. Just pretend this is the first time you're hearing it and bow down to me.
 
so overloaded by school that I can't even bring myself to enjoy a game.
ugh. was playing Tearaway @The Barn now.. but bleh. back to work

There are some good stuff in the 8-bit games though. Stuff like Hotline Miami makes it worthwhile to be interested in them.

Day 1.
 
Seeing as the PSM thread hasnt been lively and assuming its been absorbed into this thread, Imma just post this here. Its a short gameplay of a PS Mobile game that looks and sounds really good.
 
So uhh....anyone else get a Japanese email from Sony? I just got one a little while ago, I tried running it through an online translator, but it did not do a very good job. The only thing I have been able to find out is that it's about the PS4...

Figured I would ask if anyone else got one incase it's a fishing attempt.

Yeah I got one. Somethign about PSN/SEN - maybe they're migrating to SEN accounts finally?

No idea honestly, like I said I tried running it through a translator but it did jot work properly. I would post the contents here, but I have no idea if it has any personal information in it.

The game looks really good but is the video really like that? It feels like watching on a 70's TV.

I too want my party games on PS4. I hope by year's end we'll have more than just dance.

This Next PSM is looking badass, from the creator of Out of Mind and excellent retro platform game comes Console Saga! What do you think ? for me is a day 1 purchase.

A game like Life of a Pixel but without beyond terrible level design? I'm in, i just hope that the gameboy(or whatever it is) is not the only console in the game.

If you're referring to the scramble looking static thing, im assuming it's just part of the game's design, which personally, looks pretty cool to have in the background.

I failed to notice this was posted already. My bad but more exposure is good anyways.
 

I have to say this game looks worse with every new trailer they released. Is this game developed by Ubisoft?
__

I've played a couple of hours of FFVII
I just met Aeris
and I have to say those pre rendered backgrounds look amazing with the bilinear filtering. A lot better that I was expecting. The only thing that hasn't aged so well are the character models on the field. It's quite impressive for its time.

Does this game even need spoiler tags?
