Guys, Luftrausers is fucking incredible. Utterly perfect on Vita, making the most of its beautiful d-pad and controls. I was semi-interested in this game when I'd seen previews of it. It looked like it had potential, but seemed to be too chaotic. No need to worry. You have complete visual clarity on the Vita screen.

It's also home to the best tutorial in recent years. A tutorial that lasts a few seconds. The core game mechanics are simple, but refined to complete perfection. Games last a couple of minutes tops. I've only had it for 20 minutes or so, but this game has clicked with me big time.

Could be the best indie game yet on the Vita.

That honor belongs to hotline miami by a landslide

 

[corrosivefrost]

It looks cool but the trailer is kind of confusing to me....it kind of looks like a rhythm shooter? Like the music is tied to shooting the colored orbs to some extent. Will keep an eye on it for sure.

If you want to know about Savant Ascent, look at the PC release:

Spelunky would like a word with you.
Though Hotline Miami is fantastic on Vita.

Bwahahahahahahahahahahahaaaaaa XD XD XD XD

One of their best efforts yet in terms of quality products and yet it must be paired up with this kind of utter stupidity.

Hooooooooooooooooooooooooooollllly crap.

WTF is this. Expires today. So the retail FFX, X-2 HD Vita version are just codes?

Luftrausers is up there with Hotline Miami, Spulunky and TxK. It's fucking sweet.

Dammit Square

whoever wins that raffle I did and their code doesn't work cause of this nonsense, PM me ASAP.

I'll reimburse you with a PSN card.

 

[Flandy]

I really REALLY shouldn't be getting that Dinosaur game I REALLY REALLY want to lol. Still have a few more hours to decide on what to get at least

I feel Square is looking like your avatar right now. Hahahaha

My purchase of the separate retail carts has been vindicated.

Get Muramasa.

shit wrong thread

 

[Laughing Banana]

Thank God I am getting both digitally.

Man,

That's gotta be up there in the list of the Stupidest Things Game Makers Do In The History of Video Gaming.

X or Y?

shit wrong thread

X, no question.

 

[ZeroAKA]

X or Y?

Z.

Spoiler

X for superior Charizard, Y if you don't care about Charizard.

 

[Diebuster]

Well this app is off to a good start.

 

[cardinalmind]

Well this app is off to a good start.

That two year devt time...LOL

Spoiler

Like they would commit significant time for this.

 

[purpletentacle]

just bought 19 dollars worth of GTA games. pretty happy about it.

 

[Tygamr]

I know I shouldn't buy FFX HD right now (inFAMOUS comes out in a few days, have a bunch of games to play, still playing P4G), but I'm soooo tempted. I'll get $10 back, and I feel like I should support the Vita version ASAP in the hopes that it will make a difference to Square Enix's Vita apathy (it probably... Definitely won't).

 

[kassatsu]

WTF Square-Enix? SE gonna SE, I guess?

The store hasn't fully updated. My press code for Steamworld Dig doesnt work yet.

 

[vagabondarts]

I'm one of the people whose ffx2 code is borked.
Gonna try again later, but you've got to wonder how something this widespread happens. Really disappointing.

Edit: just tried it again and it magically worked. Hopefully everyone's is working now

 

[Shengar]

Another late update?

Kinda late, but not as worse as last week. It seems Grace Chen stopped snoozing her alarm.

shit wrong thread

Superior X version is superior.

 

[cafemomo]

fyi you guys, stop redeeming the codes now as after a certain amount of "errors" they will lock your account for 1 day (you won't be able to redeem any codes)

 

[HowardRoark]

So... I have FFXHD, Luftrausers, and Steamworld Dig in my cart, but it is only 55.97. What else should I get to bump it up to 60?

I love Towerfall but it's 15 bucks now and if you don't have a PS4 kinda unplayable .

 

[theac4]

My code just worked after not working when I tried it twice an hour ago.

 

[HowardRoark]

Thanks for the reminder! I did buy Towerfall last week. Looking at my Gmail, my receipt is from 03/13/2014. That counts towards the 60, right? Or does it need to all be in one transaction?

 

[Tygamr]

Welp, bought FFX HD. VitaGAF, why am I so weak?

Seriously, the Vita is less of a gaming machine and more of a game hoarding machine.

 

[VanWinkle]

Steamworld Dig is so fun, you guys. I'm enjoying it so much more than on 3DS with its miserable screen quality and poopy circle pad.

Thanks for the reminder! I did buy Towerfall last week. Looking at my Gmail, my receipt is from 03/13/2014. That counts towards the 60, right? Or does it need to all be in one transaction?

Should count cumulatively.

 

[ZeroAKA]

It could be a lot worse. I think I've only played about 10% of my Steam library.

I have enough Vita games to fill up a 64 GB card.
How many of those have I finished?
3.

 

[corrosivefrost]

what's free for PS+ today?

Nope, that should count. So you should be all set.

 

[VanWinkle]

Unit 13. I think Thomas Was Alone, too.

 

[LiquidMetal14]

Please be excited

Holy shit.

Oh my God. Classic.

They seem to be working and mine redeemed with no issue about 5 hours ago.

 

[cardinalmind]

Good for you guys, another product of GCT with love.

Don't worry bro, You are not alone. My completion rate before Vita stands near 60%, now its near 20%. I really have to stop buying games too.

It could be a lot worse. I think I've only played about 10% of my Steam library.

I still have to finish Ethan there and I haven't started playing ANY of the games I acquired during the Winter Sale. It's just too much.

 

[Wolf Akela]

At least you actually spend time with other games.

 

[e_i]

Redeemed my FFX-2 code. No problems here.

 

[corrosivefrost]

Unit 13. I think Thomas Was Alone, too.

Thank you, ser.
Oh wow, It's not cross-buy?
I'm glad I played it on PC then. :lol

Any opinions on if Chinatown Wars is worth the $4.79?
I played a little bit on 3DS before giving up on it and deciding it sucked... but maybe it controls better as the PSP version?
I remember reviewers were harsh that the 3DS touch/stylus type activities were just mapped to analogs or something?

 

[Tygamr]

Dude, don't even remind me of Steam. Haha... I've got sooo many unplayed Steam games.

 

[outunderthestars]

Any word on what games are on sale this week?

Sorry ZeroAKA. I'm getting me my Dinosaur Hunting Simulator. I'll regret this in a few days but w/e I need something to get along with Luftrausers

 

[co1onel]

Surprisingly I actually end up playing my Vita games. I've pretty much stopped buying games for any other system because I never get the motivation to actually play them.

 

[Tal Shiar Agent]

Has the US blog not been posting update lists when the store actually updates? How else can I tell what is new each week?

Yes, Yes so you can contrast a Great game with a Mediocre one huh?

Someone should make weekly PSN threads or something.....

Sigh.

A few days? You'll regret it as soon as you click the buy button.

Sigh.

This is a great idea. I wonder why nobody has thought of it before.

Spoiler

;_;

 

[Flandy]

Gaf is anything in this bundle (other than The Impossible Game) actually good?
https://store.sonyentertainmentnetw...pack/cid=UP4151-NPUB50090_00-B000000000000221
I was going to get The Impossible Game which is 74 cents on it's own but then i saw the above.
https://store.sonyentertainmentnetw...game/cid=UP4151-NPUZ00254_00-IMPOSSIBLEGAMEUS

Wondering which I should pick up to boost me into the $60 range
edit: Just realized I don't actually need it but fuck it. Getting the mini game bundle anyway

Built for the DS so the PSP port was kind of ass.

 

[kassatsu]

I know right?

 

[corrosivefrost]

I know it looked better and had better controls, or so most of the reviews said... I always liked that it was a throwback to the GTA, GTA2 games. Watching some gameplay it looks like a pass for me.

Thanks.

I know right?

Bravo.
