Neptunia Re;Birth 1 |OT| Now For The Lastation Vita (this one actually might work if we ever get the Noire game in NA)

I wouldn't recommend Cel Damage. It's a pretty fun game on PS3/4, but it's a multiplayer game at heart and unfortunately the Vita version is singleplayer only.

Neptunia Re;Birth 1 |OT| Vita Sneaks into the Console Wars

^^Ooo, I like this one.
 
Suggestion for OP: Include links to previous monthly psn threads
 
After many hours of downloading:

I will never be productive again.
 
Nope golems plight quest is pretty short and you eventually get a stronger party member instead. I thought about getting the skins for the extra spells but I don't think it warrants that price.

Not exactly required as detailed above, but definitely worth considering is Golem's Plight because it does add a character and subsequently some unique dialogue between characters during the game.

Thanks for the replies. I think I'll get the Golem DLC at least. Seems interesting and it's cheap enough.

Now, if they would offer a hi-res downloadable version of this even as paid DLC...

I know that never happens, even less so when it comes to Amano's art :(
 
Resogun. Holy shit, this game just keeps on giving.

A coworker and I jammed out the co-op trophy earlier and I realized I needed more of this game, so $8 was an easy price for the rest of the coming content. I grabbed the season pass and spent a few hours enjoying the new modes. Already platinumed the game, but I wonder if I can 100% it with the current trophy list.

Damn. Did not realise this had co-op haha. Local? I'll definitely need to get a friend on this with me.
 
Hey, are any of you guys PlayStation MVPs? And if so, do you remember how the application went? Do you recall how long you had to wait to hear back from Sony after applying? Was there any sort of confirmation email after you submitted your application?

I submitted my MVP application last Wednesday, but I'm worried that it might not have gone through and that I'm waiting for nothing. It feels like there should have been a submission confirmation or something.

MVP here. I submitted my application right after e3 2013 and didn't become one till around late October. They tend to accept MVPs in waves so you'll likely have to wait for the next wave to happen before you're accepted. I don't remember/know if you get a confirmed e-mail after you submit it. You do get an e-mail if you are accepted.

All right, cool. I guess I'll just sit tight and stop worrying then. :)

If I got accepted I'm sure you'll get accepted.
My application basicly consisted of
  • Active in some forum nobody cares about
  • lurks gaf (wasn't a member at the time)
  • I used to play runescape
  • I've been playing Minecraft since Alpha
I shit you not. I don't even know how I got accepted
 
Should I get Gravity Crash 2 for Vita? I fondly remember games with that mechanic on Amiga, like Gravity Force. But since nobody is talking about this one I've let it slide.

It is ace. But if you already have gravity crash on PSP, then whether you double dip is questionable IMO. But if you don't already, then definitely grab it. Also a likely sequel coming out based on their twitter hints

What's the point of having playstation mvps if they basically accept all applications? Then there's nothing special about being one
 
were the following R&C games on sale before?
- R&CF A Crack in Time
- R&CF Into the Nexus
- R&C HD Collection

Europe or NA? I can tell for sure that HD collection was on sale in Europe as I got it the week before Vita version hit for 18€. Into the Nexus wasn't, but I suggest getting it retail as the price is lower(in europe, the official PSN price is still 25€ while the official retail price has been lowered to 20€)
 
EDIT: Guys, if you loved Velocity/Velocity Ultra(or if you're one of those lucky with a promo code of V2X), take a look at this thread and help the devs of the game

http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=881759


If you've never played any Velocity game, then, go buy Ultra right now. it's available on Vita, PS3 and Steam. I suggest playing it on Vita but it's currently on sale on PS3.

EDIT: Thought it was an edit. shit.
 
So I just got myself a PS Vita :D

Now I'm looking foward again to the PS Plus announcement this week, already had games from the IGC, Gravity Rush, Golden Abyss, wipeout, limbo, stealth inc, etc. but I hope they make another good offering this month.


I've got Borderlands 2 and Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3, the latter looks so good! Borderlands 2 is still Borderlands, and that is good, but the control is a litte hard to get used to.


Any elemental and cheap accesory you reccomend?
 
Three/Four months. It's a white/lime ed. that a friend brought for me from Japan so going to the store is pretty much a no-no :( I've had rotten luck with my electronics lately, with my PS4 controller basically exploding by itself, my HTC One mic malfunctioning and my connection not being compatible with the Shield Tablet's gamestream (admitedly my fault) Now this. First world problems indeed!

I've already contacted Sony, let's hope they can do something.

Update: I've resetted the Vita to factory defaults and the problem has improved a LOT. Still happens sometimes, but not nearly as much. I'm pretty sure it's somehow software-related... so I'm wary to send it now. If it keeps working like it's working now I think I won't - I've heard horror histories about sending imported vitas for services and receiving exhorbitant bills.
 
Holy shit is it not even possible to earn trophies offline on PS4? It's bad enough you cant even check them offline, but not even being able to earn them is another level of bullshit. I was playing Watch Dogs yesterday when psn was down and completed a side activity that should have unlocked a trophy. Finally got to check today and it never popped despite the game itself saying I earned it. This new generation sucks.
 
I had this weird thing when I bought my PS4. You know you need PS Plus to play multiplayer,however, I played BF4 online for a long time without any subscription (didn't have the tiny Plus icon next to my profile).

Well as soon as I created a US account to buy Diablo 3 cheaper (I'm in the UK and it's really expensive) I'm not able to do that anymore.

It was fun till it lasted I guess.

Someone post that you got a Vita gif quick!

great choice on both the Vita and PS+!

on Borderlands,
map the controls to something you find more comfortable. I didn't have to use the rear touchpad much after that.

on accessories,
if you want a grip and extra battery life, Nyko Power Grip is awesome.
if you want a screen protector that maintains the awesome screen, the original glass touch surface and offers protection, get a tempered glass screen protector.

and if u got the moolah,
get the best accessory for the Vita, the $399 accessory known as the PS4.

What are you talking about ? I earned a few Hotline Miami trophies when PSN was down last night.
