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

I appreciate you doing this and sharing the wealth. Only thing I'd note, if possible, next time, to make everyone run for the same code, and let Modbot draw five from everyone. I dont know if it's possible.

TOTP: Buy Danganronpa (on sale for NA and Play-Asia) and Danganronpa 2 (out next tuesday).

Well, the way it works is, you give modbot your serial code, and he then encrypts it (that is what the MB code is that you guys paste in your PM to him). It would be nice to just have a way for people to just have to enter once, and then randomly it draws 5 winners from the overall pool. It would eliminate any confusion or hassle.

I'll have to look into it and see if that is possible. But I don't think you can do it based on the MB/encryption method, since it's based on each serial code you send modbot. But maybe there is like a group option (that groups the keys). That would be sweet!

EDIT: Also I want to apologize to everyone, I promise the next giveaways won't take up as much of the thread as this one did. By then, more people will already know what it is, and how to apply. And on my end, there will be less confusion. So I'm sorry for mucking the thread up (I did not mean for it to de-rail). Giveaway is over in like 8 hours now anyways. So I'm sure once winners are announced, it will go back to a month of business as usual.
 
I bought it only for the Kara songs, as I can do all controls but one. I can't nail that one, even after watching the tutorial several times.
I loved the PSP game, but those touchscreen controls made me hesitant to buy Technika Tune. In the end, I only bought the game because I like Kara and because the retail version was in stock for the first time in forever.

My man. We buy $50 games to play a couple of songs.
 
The CG in the Chaos Rings III trailer is freaking me out:

Notsora looks considerably older than he does in-game

this is uncanny valley stuff
 
I just bought Demon Gaze. I hope this game is doable for jrpg starters...

It is. Just save before the first boss battles, some people might find them hard. The later ones are easier, though.

Compared to something like EO the game is easier too, but very fun to play. One of my favorites Vita games so far, not even joking. I hope DG2 comes stateside.

I bought it thinking it would be a not-that-difficult dungeon crawler. I can't even beat the first boss on the easiest setting. I have no idea what I'm doing wrong.
I had less trouble with what I played of Etrian Odyssey 4.

And I've been thinking, is it possible to transfer a Vita game to a computer, remove the .psvimg game file, and then transfer it back with only the save? In case I'd want to make space for something but still have the bubble.

Mars, right? She's a bitch in the beginning, when you still don't have ways to upgrade your gear and stuff. Get more party members, a paladin and a healer if you can (or a paladin and a ranger), and try to just tank with the paladin and rain hell with the MC. I managed to clear her with just a paladin and MC, but I grinded a bit.

Off topic: I would kill for a Demon Gaze anime. Damn, so much potential, haha.

Demon Gaze can be tough if you don't have the right party composition or demons leveled, especially for end game/post game bosses. In general a paladin and a healer should be staples of every party, then the other two can be w/e but I recommend a ranger (learns most useful skill in the game), and then either an assassin or mage for the last party member.

Also spreading your stats too thin could make things pretty difficult. In general each class only has one or two stats that you should be pumping.

Yep. And I do have a healer and a paladin in addition to the main character (using a bow iirc).
If I manage to stay alive she will only keep summoning her minions that will take damage for her constantly, and if she doesn't do that she uses some attack that does like half damage on everyone in my party, and I can't keep up with the healing. My party is around level 6-7.

And the Sony conference is going to be Vitas 10th coffin or so at this point.

Following on from other people's advice, make sure you aren't wearing leather gear. Its earth attribute is weak to Mars' element, which can make the fight harder than it needs to be.
I will keep that in mind next time I feel like playing it. Thanks!

For Djmax technika I use this... thing that comes with European version of Kid Icarus, it made the game easier and more enjoyable to play if you put the vita on it.
That Waifu Bartender sounds promising, I like what I see.
And I have been playing SSD lately, I still do not get many options (it's so vast!), but such a great game. Solely the gameplay makes this game worth buying.
 
Can't wait for Don't Starve on September 2nd! I haven't played my Vita all that much lately, though I'd have killed for being able to Remote Play some Tales of Xillia 2 :(

That guy face looks really, really weird. Those eyes are just ugh. I can't stand them. The game tries to use a "kind of realistic" style but those eyes just break everything. I haven't played SO4 but some character models creep me out due to the same reason.

He'd look better with actual eyebrows that didn't look penciled in. Maybe some face chub too.

This too.
 
I've been playing the demo on and off since it was released in the Japanese PSN store. No luck so far. :/

Yeah, I bought DJ Max for collecting, and once I tried it, I couldn't get a grip on it at all. The small tutorial info went right over my head, and it was just not something I can play, sadly.

Still glad to have it, Vita et al.
 
Welp, the right stick of my vita officially crapped out and it works like 10% of the time... just the day after I purchased the three Atelier Plus games. Sony EU won't help me because my console is imported, so I ordered a replacement stick, a spudger, a Philips 00 screwdriver and I'm gonna dig into some innards when I receive the stuff.

I've got like 300€ in Vita games so if I can't fix it I'll have to buy a new one. My wife gotta love that.
 
I'm just baffled by the amount of people hating the vita and repeating "it hazz no gamezzzz" port begging every single exclusive it has.

Sorry to hear that man, be careful pulling it apart as mine was stuck and I had to apply some force.

"It has no games!"
"Listen, there are many games. Gravity Rush, KZ:M, Teraway, Oreishika, Freedom Wars, Soul Sacrifice..."
"Give me all your games!"
"Wait, what?"

Alright, I decided to start my Sept Giveaway a couple days early! This is my first time using modbot, so I honestly have no idea how this will work. I set the rules for a 24 hour raffle. Meaning, it should select a winner within 24 hours. I decided to make it 24 hours, so people have a chance to see this (since I'm posting it late at night). Plus it would suck if it was only open for 3 hours and people missed out on entering.

I apologize to everyone that I could only make this United States only. You can apply if you are in a different region, but you will need a US account in order to use the PSN serial as the serial code will NOT work for your region (this includes Canada). There are FIVE PSN codes. In order to enter, randomly choose one of the PSN codes you want to try for (Copy PSN $10 Code #3 -- MB-C33A71D0B4BA5B21 - Taken by ieptbarakat. 8 entrants total. for example, and paste that into body of the message of your PM to Modbot). Or see the GIF in the instructions if that doesn't make sense).

You can ONLY enter ONCE. Only your first entry will be counted.

As this is a raffle, just randomly pick a code you want to go for and enter. As such, try to pick at random so it's not like 100 + people all picking PSN Code #1 for instance. There is no way of telling which PSN code will have the most people choosing. Each unique code has it's own raffle between the people that applied for that code (the code you sent to mod bot). So 5 raffles will be done separately but you may only apply for one of the 5 raffles. Which one you choose is up to you.

That thread sure is fun. I had to doube check if I wasn't on gamefaqs or something.
Which thread is that?
"It has no games!"
"Listen, there are many games. Gravity Rush, KZ:M, Teraway, Oreishika, Freedom Wars, Soul Sacrifice..."
"Give me all your games!"
"Wait, what?"
"But it just has ports...
And indie games...
And too many Japanese games...
And perverted rubbing games...
And I don't like any of its library because reasons."
