PlayStation Network Thread (Vita/PS3/PS4) | August 2014

Is zone of the enders 2 on PSNow the patched version or the gimped original 1.0 port.

How does it look and sound.

psnow says it doesn't do surround. Only stereo. How is the experience?

I want to play this but the effort to hook up a ps3 and reconnect my whole setup is something I dont want to do. Halp.
 
First month for me as well: Dragon's Crown. At least with DC, I've got physical. That's what I'm telling myself :-/

PSP-compatibility is probably not just up to the marketing team. Last week on the store update blog post someone asked in the comments if the Silent Hill PSP games will get Vita compatibility any time soon and Jawad Ashraf answered:
"With a sweeping answer – No, or not yet. For SH, Konami would need to discuss Vita compatibility with our teams and take it from there."

I'm not saying I don't believe Jawad, but Konami clearly wanted those SH games to be Vita compatible. They advertised them as such. It's also bizarre to think that any publisher would put out PSP content in 2014 and not want it Vita compatible.
 
First month there's been a PS+ free game I already own (FEZ), didn't think I'd be this annoyed >:-(

It's probably because I buy so few games.

Oh my goodness man. I've had literally 80% of the Vita games that have gone up on Plus since Plus CAME to Vita. I don't want to hear it, lol.

Having subbed for 2 years it is something I'm used to now. But whenever I buy a game and a week later it is available on PS Plus I feel like a right idiot.
 
What is a good site to buy US PSN cards for us Eurotrash? Preferably to be sent through email so i can use it immediately?

I need only 2 dollars to purchase Fire Pro Rasslin which we dont have on our store.

How reliable is pcgamesupply.com ?

I get mine from Amazon US and just use a US address as my billing address. Works great.
 
I saw a Vita in public for the first time. Some guy was playing it while standing in a Hong Kong subway. Couldn't tell what game it was though.

Yes, I don't think that it's all on Konami either. There's certainly more to the story. Otherwise it wouldn't make any sense that Konami advertises the games for Vita and then releases them as PSP-only.
Just a curious quote "Konami would need to discuss Vita compatibility with our teams". You would think that compatibility is pretty much straightforward. If it works it works, else it's not compatible.
I would like to know what there needs to be discussed. Probably some behind the scenes licensing/sales agreement for a PSN re-release shenanigans.
 
The anime killed any interest I had in the series, sadly.

Don't let the anime stop you from playing the VN, I'd be tempted to say I prefer Chaos;Head to Steins;Gate personally. Robotics;Notes on the other hand is incredibly mundane.
Go all red delusions and then secret/true ending
 
Anyone have impressions of Rogue Legacy?
There's a lot of impressions here and there since it's a year old game.
But it's a 2D "platform action"-ish game where you explore a castle with randomly generated room layouts, defeat monsters, collect money, blueprints for equipment and ability modifying runes. When you die you select one out of three successors which are randomly generated with different classes and traits. Then you can use your acqired money to invest in stat upgrades, unlockable classes, new equipment and if you want to equip your runes. The goal is to defeat the bosses of each area to unlock the final boss.
I've apparently played it for around 21 hours since Wednesday, can't stop playing it once I start. Beat it today and
started playing the New Game +.
Really fun game and it plays excellently.

Did you play the Elite version? Apparently they changed some stuff story-wise.

Amazon.com
Use a random US billing address like say Google's California office address.
 
I really need to get a bigger memory card for my vita esp with a few japanese games coming out in the near future, I only have a 4GB card now and its stopping me from buying any further games on it.

Nope, English only. But judging R;N by the anime, the gap in excitement/tension from R;N to S;G is similar to the gap between S;G and C;H.

Steins;Gate gets very close to matching Chaos;Head's atmosphere in the
grocery text scene, to my dismay when that was it..
. Praying Noah will get localized with Chaos;Child on the horizon.
 
i am in the uk, and have set-up a us psn account.
i'm just wondering if i will always have to purchase US Dollor PSN cards from Amazon.com for every purchase I make on the PS Store, or if i can add my UK Debit Card to my US PSN Profile. Or if I used a UK Credit Card if that would work also.

But the C;H anime is trash and the VN is, according to you, even better than S;G's, so I wouldn't assume the VN's quality judging the anime. R;N had some serious pacing issues, I don't think it's particularly faithful to the VN.

And I mean, look at these 3D models. They're sogood.gif.

Entwined looks interesting...but the gameplay pretty slow and boring from what I saw in a short video, can anyone recommend it? I kind of still want to get it since no Dyad [on vita].

Rogue Legacy looks well designed, will pick it up to support dev.

Edit: I'll take a chance on entwined.
 
Guys, if I get an UK imported version of FFXIV:ARR for my PS3 will it work on my Spanish account? Me and two friends are thinking about getting it and it's on 11€ on Amazon.

I haven't had any luck with using a UK debit or credit on my US account. Always go with Amazon.com for PSN cards or download codes.
 
How fast is NISA's shipping?
I just wanna know if I'll get Disgaea 4 the day it releases.

It really depends...some people get their orders from NISA day one or heck a day before, but others have to wait days to get theirs...I had to wait 4 extra days to get my Danganronpa LE =/
 
Rogue Legacy is so awesome. It's actually kind of crazy: this is the first indie game I've ever shown my friend and brother that has made them buy it at full price. I've shown them so many of them. My friend will play indies fairly often but he only gets them via Plus or cheap discount, and my brother NEVER plays indies; even the free Plus ones. They both bought them game and love it.

tired it on PC but couldn't really get into it.
loving every moment of it on the Vita <3
 
Rogue Legacy feels perfect on Vita.
I'm kind of scared of booting it up on PS4 as I'm afraid my cross-saves will get messed up.. the PS4 version never sends me notices that it has updated the cross-save, like the Vita version does.

It's good -- very Journey-esque (though not as deep as Journey). It's really short, though -- you could probably beat the game in one afternoon, if you wanted to. I think it's still worth a purchase, since it's gorgeous.

Still waiting on the Vita version of Journey to give it a go :P

Played the first 3 levels, with head phones and I am really enjoying it. I'm also in the mood for it though. I agree and think it is worth a purchase if you enjoy these kind of games. I like the bonus levels at the ends too.

Visuals are pretty cool, fun to play in.
Gameplay is quite simple but enough to keep you engaged and entertained but you may need to be in the mood for it. It's not punishing at all really so far - more enjoyable that way imo, will try challenge mode in a bit. - 3 lives, levels seem different.
Music is good and interesting to listen to - especially at the bonus stages. I'm messing up sometimes during the normal level and the miss tones can be pretty loud.
Running well so far, no issues. Initial loading time when starting up a level could be a second or two shorter but otherwise they're not bad, pretty good even.


The only thing I don't like that much is when you bring the two creatures together, they just turn green. Which sort of seems a tad cheap. Would be nice if there were at least some sparks when it happens or something. I know they saved the combined model for the bonus stages but something more would be nice. Maybe just a cool tail wave or something.

859mb with the patch.
