10 hours straight of FFX HD on the Vita. Its been long since a game gets me playing so long. IT is an Excelent port althou i never played the originals so for me everything is new. I just need a new metroidvania game and Vita is God right now.

Any news regarding the Sly cooper collection? ill be digging this day 1!

I played 20 hours the first weekend and haven't touches it since. Need to get back to it, but rpgs require more concentration than I have nowadays

i did that with MGS 2 in the vita first weekend i bought it. But im amazed with FF XHD becouse despite the awkward dialogue and robotic conversations , still a very good game with a nice story and all. And i love Riku!
 
Man, the Persona 3 movie is so damn good. This is how you adapt a Persona game to anime properly. Love how the fights more reflect the way they flow in game, with characters having to summon their Persona for each move.

Makes me want to replay Persona 3 again, it's been a couple of months since my last play through... I really wish there was an updated Vita version.

Have you seen it too? It's quite curious how little the MC talks lol. I guess they wanted to keep the game esence in that aspect.

But the animation is really, really great. Miles above the original Persona 4 series. And Yukari's design in the film is miles better than the character potrait in the game. She looks a lot better there.

It's nice how they're adding original stuff for further interaction between the party characters and all that.
 
Vita Gaf what up! Long time lurker first time poster. I jusft wanted to weigh in on the God of War collection port.
I dont care much for framerates in single player games but it was reasonably solid in GoW 1. Those cutscenes tho. Yikes. I'm finding it tough to go through the second game. I had only ever played Chains of Olympus which I thought was solid. I find myself wishing I was playing Spartan: Total Warrior. Anyone on the fence, please wait for a sale.
I'm looking forward to a port for Rachet and Clank but I'm going to wait for the reviews and the brave souls from Vita gaf. I'm in Taiwan for the minute. Psn is shockingly sparce. No Ys, Fez, Limited PSone + PSP classics selection.
Lots of questionable anime games from Japan tho

I look forward to seeing Vita gafs E3 reactions.

Im buying this collection this week , never played the original games , is GoW 2 good or bad in terms of playability? Take into account that i have the infamous Jak n Daxter collection and despite de horrible frame rate the game still enjoyable for me. i didnt finish it but im almost there i understand jak 2 and 3 are really unplayable. i didnt try them yet thou.

GOW2 is more playable than GOW1. It still has slowdown from time to time but waaay more stable than GOW1 which is weird since GOW2 has waay more effects and just looks alot better in general.
 
Not sure if it's already been mentioned but I just switched the PS4 on and WatchDogs started downloading automatically. I'm in the UK.
 
Wondering if anyone can help me, PSN on my PS4 seems to have problem displaying certain game pictures, and my own profile pic in the news feed. Anywhere it should have my profile picture it has the dark grey circle with a line though it, and where the game picture should be is just the generic controller pic. Everyone else's profile pic/game pictures seem to be coming through ok, except for some random trophy pictures.

Anyone got any ideas?
 
Monster Monpiece is coming this week.

Him: Do you think those girls want beef bowls too?
Me: Not in the way you think.

FeMC is truly the GOAT.
 
Does anyone know of any deals for Vita memory cards going on anywhere? So many things I wanna buy but I only got 8 GB :(

Superufo has Vita cards for a good price.

I got the 64GB card for $95 CAD. If I buy the 32GB card locally it's $79 before tax, so this was a deal IMO.
 
Quick, someone sell me on Mind Zero. I'm going to be in a moving van over the weekend and want something to tide me over. It's come down between that and Kirby 3D
 
I never thought trying to get a Platinum for Kingdom Hearts 1.5 would be this stressful. Trying to get this items for synthesis and doing the gummi missions make me want to chuck my PS3 out the window. After I platinum Final Mix, I don't think I'm going to play KH1 for a long time.

I had fun with Kirby. I can't recommend mind zero since I never played it. I thought it looked really cool before everyone started saying it was actually pretty bad.
 
Since the poster above complained about KH1, now is my turn.

My god, I fucking hate the Dragon on Boletaria 1-2. He is just screwing people throwing his fire. When you need to return to the entrace each time you die, having to avoid him is hateful.

I don't care if an enemy kills me. That's fine, my fault, I should have roll / use the shield / managed my stamina better. But when its fire kills me, even if it's my fault, it really pisses me off :(
 
You have to buy it from their website and then transfer it from a ps3. It's a pain in the ass, but I played through the entire game that way and it worked perfectly. Silent Hill as well.

Ahh thanks for reminding me that this was possible! I recently bought MGS 1 on PS3 after seeing it wasn't on the vita store, and after playing for an hour on PS3 really wished I had it on vita. You reminded me that it was possible, and now I can actually play this. Hopefully the controls map well, I have no memory of what L2/L3 and R2/R3 did in MGS 1.
 
Alright, I am an indecisive person so help me out. Resogun or Dead Nation: Apocalypse? or should I just save my money for The Witness (2014 lol) or the rumored Journey remaster?

Not a PS+ subscriber and don't really want to join.

MGS didn't use L3 or R3 at all, I don't believe. L2 and R2 were involved in switching equipped items and weapons.

Oh yea, I guess that was partially a pretty dumb question as didn't MGS come out before the PS1 controllers even had analog sticks or L3/R3 buttons? Thanks for the heads up!

Here is what I use. L2 & R2 on L & R button and L1 & R1 on bottom corner of touch screens like MGS Collection. Works flawlessly.

Resogun if you're a loner. Dead Nation if you're looking to co-op.
 
Interesting that PS+ will drop Resogun, Uncharted 3 and Little Big Planet Karting next week.

What would be the fix games of this year that will likely be announced in E3?
 
Yeah... Looks like they really won't be changing the "yearly" Vita games...

As for what will replace LBP Karting and Uncharted 3? GOW: A is one of my guesses. Maybe PS All-Stars?

I hope they change the Vita fixed games too, they have been there for ages now.

I recommend mapping l2 and r2 to the front touchscreen. The game pauses when you use them to pick inventory, so it isn't as awkward as it could be. L3 and r3 don't do anything, thank god.
 
Wolfenstein, a lot of indie titles, etc.

I meant full retail games, not digital indie titles. Sorry if my choice of words wasn't clear. I also only own a Vita so I don't pay as much attention to the PS3/PS4 release prices. But either way, word is out about Mind Zero so it doesn't bode well.
 
Also tempted. But since when does a full game get a day one PS+ discount? Its nice but they must know the bad reviews (or quality of the game in general?) are going to drag this one down.
They're trying to get as many sales as possible at a discounted price because they know that the game will get bad reviews.
 
If you've ever played Phoenix Wright, it's somewhat similar to it. If not, it's basically a mix of a visual novel and a mystery game.

The premise is that you are starting at a new high school, but things take a bizarre turn when you and 14 other students end up locked in said school and are trapped in there to live out the rest of your lives. The only way to get out is to murder someone without anyone finding out. You don't know who is behind this or why they're doing it, just that an annoying robotic toy bear called Monokuma is the one relaying all the info to you, and you need to watch your back since everyone has a motive to kill, since that's the only way to get out.

Gameplay plays out in three parts per chapter. First part is story/finding dead body, second part is investigation/point-and-click as you move around the school in 3D (very rudimentary), and the last part is the trial/mix of mini-games. During the trial, you try to uncover the truth by pointing out lies in statements. You do this by taking one of the facts (or "bullet" points) and "shooting" the part of the statement that's contradictory. There are some other mini-games during the trial like hangman and a rhythm game, but they essentially serve the same purpose.

I'd rate the game 7/10. It's fun and interesting. Nothing mindblowing, but I got what I expected, which was a suspense murder game.
How does it stack up to Virtue's Last Reward? That's like my favourite interactive-fictiony game ever.

Phoenix Wright is cool and all, but I think I prefer a bit more puzzle solving and exploration versus pointing out tiny inconsistencies in testimony.

Plus I felt the writing was far superior (or at least the English translation was). PW has the clown shoes on firmly, and I like that kind of humor, but VLR's storytelling was on a whole other level.
 
I'm going to get a 64gb card eventually. Just need to get a good estimate of how much space all the PS+ stuff I have will take up. I have about 5000 MB of space left on my 16gb card after buying Dynasty Warriors 8 the other day. Got a few plane rides coming up shortly so I may load up my card with things to play from my PS+ stash.
