Call of Duty Black Ops Declassified.

I actually found grinding Luck to be way more tedious and time consuming. To fill 40 HP Sphere nodes you have to defeat a very easy guy (just 500,000 HP, no armor)
(Kottos)
with Overkill only once. On the other hand, to fill 40 Luck spheres you have to defeat a really tough foe (1,300,000 HP, armored against Overdrives)
(Earth Eater)
at least 20 times with Overkill.

You didn't pick one.

Who the heck were you battling for all the grinding, Amano?

- HP:
Ironclad
for HP+300 spheres. Needed about 333 of those.
Kottos
for farming power spheres (40 at a time, so quite easy).
- Luck:
Greater Sphere
for Luck+4 spheres. About 60 of those. Then the tedious part:
Earth Eater
for about 410+ Fortune Spheres.
- and tons of Gil to buy around 400 Clear Spheres to delete every non+4 node, every HP 200 node and every MP node that was not 40 from the grid, but the Gil came mostly from these same battles at the Monster Arena, since some foes dropped some very expensive armor that you can sell.

Those are the longest ones, the rest of +4 spheres are a joke to get. If you want more details just let me know.

Of course I did, I picked the Luck grinding, mostly at the (costly) expense of my productivity.



LOL. Good one.

Thanks!

Loving my new PS4 by the way, just wish it wouldn't try to download more than one thing at a time.. Oh and a pause download button would be great.
 
Umm I hope you know the Japanese version got all the updates.

I do know, that's why I said SCEA should remove it. The English version of the Vita app is stuck on 1.0. The Japanese version is well beyond that (3.xx IIRC). Due to some backend changes on Nico Nico, the English app doesn't even work anymore.

The fact that we didn't even get Twitch is shocking..
 
Got my account approved, so I'm finally a part of vitaGAF! I've had my Vita for 2 years now, and it's an awesome piece of hardware. It pretty much surpassed the PSP as my all time favorite handheld. I picked up some of the games you guys have been recommending, and can't thank ya'll enough. Tearaway being one of them, was a breath of fresh air. Just beat it, and what a great game it was. Knew it was going to be amazing, but the gimmicks kinda threw me off when I first tried the demo. After playing the full game though, I think they were implemented decently. Damn fine game, and it's a damn shame not too many people bought it.
 
So I have a flight tomorrow. Is there anything wonky that can happen while playing a game in airplane mode? I'll have to sync trophies when I'm done right?

killatopak got banned for not buying it. Tru story
They were going to ban the both of us but then I unexpectedly finished it.

Nah, but if I may say, LocoRoco 2 is a perfect airplane game. It always has been.

My Vita has been on flight mode since I got it, mostly because I got annoyed at the "No SIM" text. It doesn't affect games at all. In fact, some people in the BL2 thread posted that the game might actually perform better with flight mode on.
 
Think I'm going to redownload God of War Vita and play either that or Dynasty Warriors 8 for ultimate frame rate hell. Or maybe Limbo so I can be scared of a video game while I'm scared of dying.

Also will have that other handheld with me to maybe play a few rounds of Mascot Golf.

And saves battery too.

Hope you enjoy your stay here on Gaf; its a great place :D! I got a Vita mainly due to the consistent glowing praise the system got on here and am very happy with my purchase (own my Vita since June of last year :D).

Glad you enjoy Tearaway; it was easily my GOTY last year due to its great controls, wonderful story, charming characters, and just inventive gameplay :).

Some games I recommend are Persona 4 Golden, Sly Collection, and Gucamelee. The first game is so recommend here that you must own it by now, but if you don't its a great value; characters that really stick with you, almost perfect pacing, great story, tons of content to play through, really fun combat system and all around solid presentation.

The second is by far the BEST PS3 to Vita port from Sony; great controls, native resolution for all three games, easily trophies for the first two games, and a very stable performance across all three games. The Sly games rock and they still do on Vita :D.

Lastly, Guacamelee is by far my favorite Indie game on Vita and its due to many reasons. Firstly, the game looks great on the Vita's OLED screen and has a awesome soundtrack. Secondly, the gameplay is great; wonderful mix of combat and platforming that is paced out very well. Lastly, the 'Metroidvaina' aspect of the game really gives it a lot of replay value. It is overall a great game and a must own if you own a Vita or PS3 (as it is on both platforms).

Hope this helps :).
 
Haha I put over 100 hours into my vita between Ys and Demon Gaze, getting the platinum in both so I can certainly recommend those two.

Heard great things about both games, so I will look into them latter on :). Ys I feel I may enjoy more due to its more action-focus combat system; loved the KH games and it may be close to those. Besides, Gaf finds it a great game too; seen lots of praise about it when it launched here :).

Don't know too much about Demon Gaze though; I know it is a dungeon crawler and that it is a good one, so that might be nice :).

Thanks for the recommendations :D.

You really love that game, don't you? Well....it IS Call of Duty on Vita, so....it is at least SOME form of Call of Duty on Vita :l.

Surprised you don't recommend Killzone Mercenary or Unit 13; the former is a great shooter while the latter is a good third person shooter (it even fits well on Vita; missions only take about...3-6 minutes to get through :)).

Then again, you could just be trolling or something :l.

Just turn off the mobile data toggle and that no Sim text should vanish. At least I think that is what you do.


That said, my Vita pretty much stays in flight mode to save battery life

Flandy likes (almost) all AAA dudebro quality first person shooters. It's just that he especially likes CoD Vita, especially compared to first-party games such as Sleepaway and Time Sacrificed.

I don't think that option existed until a later firmware update. In any case, I still keep it in flight mode to save battery life too.

Is the Borderlands 2 dlc cross buy for the vita version?
No.
 
Persona 4 Golden and FFX/X-2 HD are probably what most people would recommend. I also really like Ys, Dragon's Crown, Disgaea, and Demon Gaze.

I can emulate my versions on pcsx2 and i dont like some of the design changes/audio changes so not really down for ffx.

That being said, what about Ateiler? those look rad, never touched them before.

More of a turn based rpg fan, but i like dark souls
 
Know what games we still don't know the release dates of? Helldivers, Velocity 2X, Hohokum, and Volume. I'd put money down on that being the PS4/Vita PLAY Summer Sale Extravaganza Line-Up. Substitute with surprise games like Android Assault Cactus as needed.

Savefile Bonus with story finished = Outfit for Tenko (!?!?!?!)

Pick one

I laughed more than I should with this.

Borderlands 2 Vita patch incoming! It's supposed to improve some "performance & control issues & various crashes" from Gio Corsi. Per his twitter:

https://twitter.com/giocorsi/statuses/472506533029216256

(Is this an okay GAF link??)

Nice. I'm getting this game and I'll probably convince a friend to get it when he gets a Vita so we can have some co-op fun together.

Speaking of Persona 5 I honestly wonder where direction they are going with it; love playing through P4G and I wonder if the core gameplay/design is going to remain the same or drastically change.... I do remember reading somewhere that the producers of the game will have the setting still take place in a high school and that "people will have to carry their chains (representing by the ball-and-chains attached to the chairs in the teaser picture they showed off) though...

That has to be the game I'm the most excited about :D; if the game is a lot like P4G and P3P then I know I will love the game :).

I am thinking though, is this going to be a whole new cast or are they going to use the P3 & P4 cast. Both groups are heavily featured in both the Arena games and Persona Q, so maybe they will continue their story? But I guess that is what the spin-offs are for; expanding the stories of those great characters :).

Either way I am excited about this and I wonder if they will have something at E3 about Persona 5 :).

I'm very excited for Persona 5 too. 7th gen doesn't end until Atlus says so.

I think they'll keep the core untouched and they'll keep polishing stuff. The jump from 3 to 4 was impresive. The jump from P4 to P4Golden was nice too, especially the changes in the combat system. If they can improve things from that point, I'll be happy. That means:

- Better graphics (if it looks like Catherine... wow)
- I'd like if Social Links could affect the outside world / plot a little more (this already happened in both P3P and P4)
- Better dungeon design (this is the most important thing to improve). From P3 to P4 there already was a improvement.

The Naginata really looks like my future main weapon :)

Nice release date. I was expecting something around September so it wouldn't overlap with Phantasy Star Nova.

Now those games are >60 days apart from each other.

For Toukiden Kiwami, I expect we'll get it on February like last year. It's a solid release date for this kind of game. Niche games should release outside March/Fall madness if they can.
 
Considering the deluge of T-K games coming this year, I expect Toukiden Extreme (Kiwani) next year. Unless this becomes a holiday 2014 title.

TK's Vita support is amazing. Toukiden in February, Deception in March, DW8 in April, Atelier Ayesha (June?) and Rorona (Summer?) are coming. Then in Fall there is Samurai and Orochi Warriors and probably Toukiden Kiwami early next year.

It's amazing how many games they're able to release a year when you compare them to the rest of Japan.

Ayesha isn't happening yet, rorona is in June and its only digital, shows how much they care for ps vita.

Most Atelier games on Vita are ports. Userbase is limited. Serie is really niche. Considering those 3 factors, the fact that they are coming is enough for me.

Would love if Tecmo released a "Limited Edition" pack with the full trilogy. I'd like to have a box.

The Asia version don't have english subs.Right?

My phone betrayed me and post the comment before I finished lol
