Has Sony posted any more videos/screenshots of BL2 Vita since their first batch? The game is supposed to be out in a week and a half, and I'm trying to finish up the OT by Tuesday, but that might be delayed a few days.

Edit: Top of the page, buy Demon Gaze and Soul Sacrifice Delta. Maybe Borderlands 2 Vita if it still exists.

 

[Freedom = $1.05]

Are all those PSP/PS1 games that became compatible for NA vita earlier this week now unavailable again? I can't check because I'm at work and my friend just texted me. That's fucking awful!

When it let you download PSP themes, most people figured it was a glitch and got in on it while the going was good. It sucks that they undid it but maybe the positive reception from that error will end up helping out in the long run.

How awesome is Vita? I really disliked Dead Nation on PS3, it took an eternity to arrive at level 4 and leaving it while on Vita i find it way more bearable and after few play i'm already at level 6.
I still think that the enemy encounter design is extremely predictable and cheap, a container? enemies will come from there, a box? When i'll open it enemies will appear and so on. What irritates me the most though is that i spend a lot of time to clean a zone and search for everything and then when i go on hordes of enemies come from there :\

Still a junior so can't make a topic but can say my impressions on the Oreshika 2 demo.

The demo of Sen no Kiseki ( 閃の軌跡 ) is released on PS3 et PS VITA.

I'm happy to see that more developers are finally trying to make good graphics on Vita...

Crossposting from the Starlight Inception thread:

First impression: it's a space dogfighting game on my Vita.

...I talked too early lol.

Looks like my Starlight Inception demo download also turned out to be the full game because I earned a trophy. Thanks EU store team.

Awesome, i really wanted a space game but apparently it's not good(but i can close an eye if i really want something), i'm downloading it(i had no space on the memory before)

Too much to play and there's a lot more i want to buy

Flying Hamster II Kickstarter Cancelled
Backers to get free Steam Key if they do certain tasks (check your emails)

They found a publisher FDG Games
hope we still get a Vita version

Too bad, i hope for the best.

Not sure if these are placeholders also but Danganronpa 2 and Blazblue Chronophatasma for Vita got some Cover updates for what they might look like when they finally come over to the west.

For some reason i find all the Blazblue covers totally bland and uninspired...

 

[wilflare]

anyone apply anything on the rear touchpad on the Vita?

I have just seen this video of Putty Squad for PS4
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hbMeg4exR6U

Maybe the thirst for some Amiga platformer makes me blind but honestly i don't see what's so bad about it, i mean ok the price is high, the artstyle is ugly and sometimes it looks chaotic(but i like chaotic things lol), but does it really deserve all the hate or it's just one of those easy targets that people like to hate? It looks like it could be a fun game.

 

[NoSkillz187]

Been playing Hearthstone on the IPAD, and I think it would be awesome on the Vita. Probably won't happen, but I would love to see it.

 

[vagabondarts]

I can't believe how much I'm playing Vita over PS4, it just amazes me.

It's so small, convenient, doesn't take up your TV, and the screen is so freak'n clear. I'm not sure why this system has had bad rap pre-PS4's existence, I have a back-log of Plus games to play, and P4G is eating up so much of my time.

Whenever I'm not gaming, I watch Hulu Plus or Netflix and the video really stands out, much more so than watching videos on WiiU's device.

That's how I felt when I first got mine too! Welcome to VitaGAF!
(My Vita is my only gaming device now. Feelsgoodman)

It's how the game is designed. I usually try and clear areas as well, but the enemy release points are scripted so you have to deal with them as they intend you to.

I'd like to apply something that disables it entirely.

It runs on Unity, so anything is possible

Spoiler

if Blizzard does it before telling Activision.

 

[netguy503]

Putty Squad just came out for Vita and it's cross-buy for the PS4 version too!

Except, only if you buy it now for £19.99 instead of the £24.99 I paid for it. That's slightly annoying.

Can anyone confirm if putty squad is cross buy from ps4 to vita in the US as well? I might bite for two plats at $25.

Also, as another poster said, I want to take part in the Batman sale but the games don't show ps+ prices (at least on my Vita). WTF is going on?

 

[HowardRoark]

What do the trends/analyses say about Heart Forth, Alicia hitting the Vita stretch? I will back it if it has a high chance.

EDIT:
Kicktraq claims it is trending towards :

Not sure if I buy it, but I'll likely back it.

amazon updated me with a delivery date after it went OOS again (for the hundredth time) and the physical release is actually in stock

color me surprised

hopefully whatever i get in the mail is actually a vita game

 

[Dugna]

Really nice covers. I might break my digital streak and buy physical copies of Danganronpa 1/2. What are the chances of NISA releasing a combo pack?

Might be high if Danganronpa 2 sells even better then 1, Since they already translated the 2 vita versions just put them back into the standard two pack that Japan got.

I'm into Heartforth Alicia, been following the dev on twitter for screens for awhile. Didn't even expect it to come to Vita.

The kickstarter bubble seeming to be popping is disheartening, though... 3 cool "Vita" games that aren't going to happen this month, sadly.

Also, I'm a proud 2d sprite whore that defends against indie hate to death, but it's even kind of annoying to me that the only Vita tiered kickstarter succeeding right now is almost a cliche formula for success. It almost (barely) makes me see what AAA-only haters see in the "oversaturation" when an admittedly cool looking 3d game like Cult County can't make a blip, and 2D that's not pixels in Flying Hamster is dead in the water.

These could have been great things to look forward to even well into 2015, or even 2016, regardless of Vita's futures.

 

[jon bones]

Somebody's living right

Or should I say, Vita-ing right

yeah life sure is swell when you've got a Vita!

 

[kiriin]

Sen 2 is still too far off for a demo. Releasing this now is probably to get more people interested in the budget rerelease of Sen coming out in June since save data is transferable to the full game.

They mention Sen II is about 65% done. A short demo similar Ao no Kiseki Evo wouldn't be incredibly difficult to do. Wasn't expecting a demo now but just assuming one will come out eventually. Later on in the summer maybe.

 

[I Wanna Be The Guy]

So it turns out MotoGP 13 is a sim racer, not an arcade racer. Oh. Well I guess at least I know what the first game I'll be deleting is once my new 64gb card fills up.

Oh my heavens, yes. I've been trying to get those elusice sunsabitches for a while.

Spoiler

40 stars, 31 crowns, and I'm stuck.

. Took me ages to get get some. Oddly enough, I have a few mid range tournaments to crown, and all the special VS modes to crown. Everything else is done though, I got lucky on a lot of the top level tournaments -_-

Amazing game though. Was my first Vita game I bought at launch, and I still play it regularly to this day.

i was finally on such a roll with my impact/power/wind/putting and then lost my vita going to be SO rusty when I get back into it. I feel like the only thing holding me back from a platinum in that game is the double eagle/HIO

Why did they change it to general PSN?

To keep the good Vita down.

 

[Wynnebeck]

Sigh. I have the worst luck with PSN. Now I got this stupid 80028EA1 error right as I'm trying to play Rock Band 3. I go to play and songs I was just playing yesterday now have this weird "song not loaded, skipping song" error message and it's pissing me off. I know it's a dumb question, but is PSN down for anyone else?

 

[Flandy]

We were enjoying ourselves too much

Something about encouraging more Vita talk in other places of the forum

2D that's not pixels in Flying Hamster is dead in the water.

The kickstarter got cancelled, but the game got funding from an actual publisher, in case you haven't heard. It will probably make its way to vita eventually.

 

[Prelude.]

Anyone know when the Vita Slim hits the rest of EU?

Nobody knows and they're still using the 1000 model in their PAL videos on youtube so... not soon, I guess?
It's not too pricey on Amazon UK considering it'll probably be 189/199€.

Man, I remember you saying that about your Vita, that's awful You'll get the feeling back in no time. Those timings for the swings and the course layouts will come flooding back once you start getting in to it. I feel I can be close to the Plat if I want, my hurdles are the double eagle, and collecting all the crowns + stars. Stars won't be an issue, but them crowns...I only have 32% of the trophies, but a ton are just for buying parts and other easy crap. Still need to do a homing shot and spiral in an offical tourney...got my HIO several months back, and it was easily the greatest HIO I've made in my manymany years of playing HSG (10+). Bounced right in to the cup. Legacy of Golf links, hitting from one "island" to another "island"...never again will I get that good of a shot. Glad I have it on youtube to enjoy more easily than the replay in game

Any chance HSG on Vita goes free for PS+ users? NA specifically.

Sadly no, NA is getting a bunch of other games. The list was posted a page or two back, assuming you are on the 100ppp master race. Though, HSG is roughly 12-15 smackers, depending on where you get it from. I just ordered a copy two weeks ago for a coworker, it's a great deal at that price.

Oh god, it's that time of the year again. The moment when I inexplicably think I could possibly learn Japanese.
Remembering Zillions of Enemy X triggered my 'why didn't you learn the language again ?' mood. So much legacy games to discover, never having to hope for localization.

Problem is freaking kanji - I've learned for two years and it was enough for some talking/listening but for games you have to read them

thanks for letting me know... 'sgood, I guess. Hopefully they can be a little free to make what they wanted to still. I don't know what publisher picked it up, so hopefully it's not one that says "how can we monetize/mutilate your iOS game and make it more like Candy Crush?"

 

[18-Volt]

Is there a some kind of glitch on PSN? Batman 75th anniversary sale is supposed to last for one week but they ended sale of Vita games (Injustice and Blackgate) early (just for 3 days). Also they seem to have taken Lone Survivor off the PS Plus without notice. They have done a similiar thing couple of weeks ago: They have taken Monster Hunter off of PSN plus for a week and put it back. No reason. Just weird.

Don't worry, they mentioned that they won't turn it into a freemium game.
