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

Terrible choices.
Buy it.

There's no point if you already know the whole story.. The game is mostly visual novel. Not going to buy it just to play the mini-games.
The anime came out before the game got localized anyways so already knew the plot.
Didn't have a vita and wasn't interested in buying one so just watched someone play it.

Danganronpa 2 is what actually pushed me to buy a vita though.
 
Getting the 64 gb card might not have been a good idea. I feel compelled to play catch up with all the content I couldn't fit on my system over the last 2 years. During this weeks sales I picked up..

Murasaki Baby
Mega man Mav Hunter X
Mega man X4
Street Fighter Alpha 3
Driver 76
Asphalt Injection
MotoGP 13 vita
Mud
WRC 3 vita
WRC 3 PS3
WRC 4 vita
NFS Most Wanted vita
NFS The Run

I think it's time to put my credit card to rest for a while.

To support the game.
I played it first on the PSP before they announced the localization but I bought it and played it again. And the anime is so bad that doesn't even count as a valid exprerience of the game, if anything, it ruins it.

School mode is awesome btw.

Maybe, but the anime is REALLY bad compared to the game, it skips lots of things and ruin others, i'm not saying you should buy DR1, but looking at the anime(or looking someone else playing the game) instead of playing the game was a very terrible idea.

How was I supposed to know the game was getting localized? The anime came out first before it was even announced for the west. I like anime, so I watched it.
I wouldn't even have known about this series without the anime.. and like I said, I wasn't interested in buying a vita so I just watched someone play it.
 
Is Titan Attacks worth the $6? I'd likely play on my vita though I have a ps4 too. I like games like TxK, Luftrausers, etc.

Also -- can someone talk me down from NFS Carbon (psp) for Vita? I'm about to spend around $30 on racing games for my vita, and I really don't need a psp one I'll likely never get to but it's NFS (I already have NFS:MW).

Yea, honestly I almost did the same. I enjoy watching anime, so when it came out it was on my list to watch. Didn't even know the game was getting localized as the anime started before any localization announcement happened. The only thing that prevented me from watching the anime was simply running out of time due to other shows out that season, and I never got to it.

People giving you a hard time, but how were you supposed to know the anime would be bad/the game would get localized/you would eventually get a vita? (I thought the anime was fine personally, not nearly as amazing as the game was, but passable for an anime)

Agree 100%. Had alot of fun playing it. Has Danganronpa 2 something like this too?
 
let me just post this gif to get the ugly mood out of the way

Oh killatopak, thank you for calling me the new Vita king/queen. I don't think I'd ever get that high one people's regards, but I love this community from long before I was an actual member.
 
Glorious! Prepare to never see the light of day again. Congrats on the Vita.

Does playing with it outside count? I mean.. its portable for a reason
:p

I am addicted already though, wish I had gotten one sooner. I'm so overwhelmed with all these games I've missed.
Got DR2 to start off with, but looking to get 3 more by Monday. Probably Demon Gaze, SAO Hollow Fragment and one other that I'm not sure about yet.

I already pre-ordered Senran Kagura and Freedom Wars as well.

I've had my 3DS for a year now but my vita is about to have more games than it does :lol

You have Persona 4:Golden, right?
 
Oh right, that.. I already have Persona 4 on PS2. But its been years since I've played it.. hmm

Are the changes/features in Golden worth it if I already played the PS2 one?

Yeah, two new social links, an extra dungeon, a new epilogue + more. It goes on sale all the time in the US as well

You're not the only here ;). Watched the anime when it was released + have seen gameplays/walkthroughs of DR1(because I was hyped about DR :/). A month ago, I've got DR2 and played the game. Have seen some DR2 gameplay before the English release, but meh. I wanted to play the game :P(couldn't wait for it). I'm still going to get DR1. Perhaps digitally(because I have DR2 digitally :/). It was on sale 2 weeks ago. But my limit for discounted games on the PSN Store is €20(DR1 was discounted for €22,50. Still too much for me :/).

And congrats with the Vita :P. Next thing on the list is the 64GB card(which I also need to buy, but Sony keeps giving sales with the games I want to have :'( . So I have to spend my money on PSN cards :X).
 
Just a heads up for anyone who didn't check out the sales yet, Sonic All Stars Racing is on sale for both PS3 and Vita :). Both versions are very solid games with really fun gameplay, great track designs and lots of single player content. The best part is that both versions run solid (PS3 version runs well and so does Vita, some slowdowns aside), so they complement each other perfectly. Really wish they had cross-buy though :( (would made unlocking stuff faster in both versions X().

Great flash sale I think :).

Best kart racer ever. Even better than CTR.

You got a 64GB card?! Congrats man :D! You can hold well over 100 games in one spot now XD! Must feel awesome I would imagine :').

And the large spending on games? Ah, the Vita curse in full effect I see XD! When I first got mine up till early this year I AWAYS got stuff on Vita when sale got into effect :D; made me now look back on my 160+ backlog and say "I got a lot of games!" XD!

Either way, great picks from the sale; Mega Man MHX and MMX4 are great games, NFS Most Wanted has a ton of content, and the rest of the sale filles the Vita racing itch well I think :).

Gotta say, Racing Transformed brought me more fun then any Mario Kart I've ever played (the closest had to be Mario Kart DS, but that was largely due to the mission mode and the DS being my only handheld at that point). The transformations really felt unique and different, with each mode offering slightly different but not radically different gameplay (where's the the 'transformations' in Mario Kart 7 and 8 were just 'skins' so to speak; same gameplay with the visuals of what is happening making it feel different).

Will say this though, Mario Kart 8 did a solid job mixing things up; the anit-gravity makes the other modes, I guess 'click' more then they did in Mario Kart 7.
 
Just started my review of Natural Doctrine (capitalization be damned) last night. This game is absolutely perfect for the Vita.

Can't wait to see some of you guys online for the multiplayer modes when it goes live!

You deserve it man. Some of my posts when I was considered at the top were just filler so to say. I haven't seen you post something like that at least. And yeah, VitaGAF is the best community that I've experienced. All the people here are willing to help each other out.

Wait. There's multiplayer? First I've heard of it. :o
 
is playing first light before second son a dumb idea?
want something new to play over the weekend, but second son is a bit too expensive atm :/

I've heard Last Light is mostly a nod to characters you will remember from Second Son, so despite it being a prequel you will miss out on basically all story and background in FL because you will be confused. Pretty much not recommended to play it first unless you only care about gameplay. But I haven't played FL myself so this is only what others have told me. I guess comparable to playing FFX-2 before FFX, the gameplay in FFX-2 is better so if that is all you care about go for it, but you will miss the whole story and character development aspect playing them out of order.
 
Hmm, to avoid having a penny as my PSN wallet balance I am looking to get a cheap game in addition to the $4.99 game in my cart. Right now Pandemonium, Gex: Enter the Gecko and Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver are all under $2. Any of these worth getting? Didn't play any pack in the PS1 days, so no nostalgia. Or is there something else for under $2 that is a better use of my money.

Day 1. So looking forward to this. Glad to hear your loved it because every time I look at any vid of the game I get excited for it, though I know reviews were mixed. Difficultly doesn't scare me though.

Soul Reaver is the best game in your pickings there. It's dated, visually, but was still a great game. Great atmosphere, gameplay, world design, story and voice acting. Nice puzzles and interesting combat choices. Was the next best thing to Ocarina of Time back in the day, as a 3d Zeldalike, and helped pioneer streaming loadtimes, so you never see any loading screens after starting. The way it switches dimensions on the fly, with all the architecture morphing and changing, is still pretty impressive.

Thank you, that's very nice. Great to see you back, too.

On a side note, I started Danganronpa 2 today after sorting out my life and bought a $10 PSN card for Murasaki Baby.

Tempted to get it on Vita. I have it on Steam, but I would love to play on the go. The only negative is that All Stars Vita isn't Vita/PSTV compatible. Which really sucks because I plan to ad-hoc a lot of multi-player games between it and my Vita when I get one.
 
I'm picked up some good stuff from the Capcom sale. Got myself Street Fighter II Turbo, Street Fighter III Third Strike, and Okami HD. If anyone else bought Third Strike and wants to play just shoot me a pm, I'll probably suck btw.
