Acceptable. They don't sound like my Ear Force Deltas, but they will get the job done. The only time I will be using them is if I'm playing in bed and my wife is sleeping.

Yeah I actually flipflopped my preorders back and forth between all 3 of those LOL, but I finally settled on the big travel case because I reckon the Vita will fit in there with a silicone protector on, and I dont think it would fit in the others.
the front protector looks great and nope i never hit the edges. it seems like the whole face of the vita is made of the same plastic, so if the screen can scratch, so could the rest of it i suppose. i only really care about the screen so i'd rather not put one over the whole thing.
you could still cut it, but yeah it's not going to fit unless you alter it.

How difficult was the process of applying it the OLED screen?
I'm trying to convince a friend to get a Vita at launch, and the thing keeping him on the fence is his worry that there won't be any titles with rich multiplayer content on Day 1. He's interested in Unit 13, but he wants something that he can play with me right away. For those more in the know than I, what game is the most likely to get him off the fence and a Vita in his hands? No genre is out, though I have to exclude Wipeout because we both suck horribly at it.
i hear there is no english in it. and the comic cutscenes have a lot of writing. this may or may not be true i am just doing my best to talk you out of it.
Can people stop complaining about the PSP games not all being playable on the PSVita day one....wait and be patient good things happen for those who WAIT! Also quit complaining about load times just play the dam game and enjoy it.....you people ask for way too much coming from a portable system that really is giving you every dam thing out there.

No you are right, there are NO other language options.
I really want it too, but I understand the game is very story centric, which makes it kinda pointless to import if you cant understand it.
Will be downloading the moment GAF tells me its up though.
Edit: I will be downloading the LOCALISED version.

I bought them because they have a mute switch. Perfect for party chat

No English option?
if yelling into a microphone earned you awesome bucks, this guy would still be poor, and talking like a douche.. because he is a douche.

Is Wipeout the free game that you get if you purchase a data plan in the US? How does all of that work? I'm considering cancelling my Wipeout preorder if that is the case.
you get a free $15 game, so no

Escape Plan is definitely one of the main Vita titles that has my attention. Since I read it's mainly touch controls though, I'm a little weary - but for $15, I'll definitely get it right away.
I'm still debating launch titles in my mind.
I'm going between Lumines + Rayman Origins, or Fifa, or Ninja Gaiden...
I have fond memories of Ninja Gaiden kicking my ass on the XBOX
wipeout's is a lot easier because you take screenshots in the pause menu. all you to do is press pause instead of two buttons at once.
How is the framerate? I canceled my preorder for modnations because the demo had crappy frame rate.
it plays great, but yeah...the framerate is a bit choppy. i was pretty annoyed during the first race, BUT i didn't really notice it at all in the second. i think it's something you can get used to.

Thanks for the info! I got two rear protectors from eBay (certainly knockoffs, but it's kinda ok for the rear pad; nothing but official Hori for the front screen for me) so I'm good, but now I save $10.

Can someone tell me if I made the right choice by selecting Wipeout 2048, Rayman Origins, and Army Corps of Hell for my launch titles?
I'm interested in Uncharted and Hotshots, but am turned off by the sub-HD resolution and price of Uncharted and will probably pick up Hotshots a little later down the line.
Am I making any glaring mistakes, or is my logic seemingly sound here?

rayman is fantastic on ps3. the trailer made it look identical so i'd say it's a great choice. it's not a short game either.
i have been playing wipeout tonight and it's awesome. you won't regret it.
i know nothing about army corps of hell.

Great, thank you.
Army Corps looks right up my alley, I'm just afraid it may be illogical not to get Uncharted when buying a PSVita, and have heard a lot of good things about Hotshots.
I think I'll remain confident in my launch choices, and I'll be picking up Gravity Rush the moment it launches.
One good thing I can say about the Vita is that the software is definitely compelling for a launch, better than any in recent memory.

I just double dipped on that one on PSN. I know it's been noted that it's not on the list's but I'm patient to wait for it to work if it doesn't already. I have it downloaded on my PS3 alongside 4 total games waiting for the Vita.

In regards to the free PSN game you earn by signing up for 1 paid month of 3G abd 1 free month, No one knows yet. It's incredibly vague.
But you'll get a physical copy of Little Deviants.

Isn't it just Little Deviants?
I was excited for the game since it has an awesome art style, but playing the demo at Gamestop today, I don't know, I just couldn't really get into it.

You get a $15 DL game off of PSN too.

Oh, wow. Had no idea about that. Awesome.
3G Launch pack is still better if you're not impatient then lol
I believe the verbiage implies that you must subscribe a month of AT&T DataConnect, to get a free PSN network game, which is up to a $15 value. The free included month doesn't count... We haven't seen a USA released system in the wild yet to confirm, right?

Just finished getting all my non-Vita-downloadable PSP games across to my JP Vita using my PS3.
Another game I hadn't seen mentioned yet is Gran Turismo PSP - works fine. Looks pretty decent on the Vita screen, although the aliasing is pretty pronounced. Playing with the analog stick instead of the nub is a joy.
Can't wait for the PS1 support to hit so I can pull all my RPGs across.

Transferred from my PS3
Peace Walker
GT PSP
Killzone Liberation
Pursuit Force
From the Vita PSN store I re-downloaded
Tactics Ogre
FFT : War of the Lions
Disgaea
FF : Dissidia
Pinball Dreams & Fantasies (which look pretty damn nice in vertical orientation)
On the Vita front I have JP Uncharted, RR and UMvC retail cards.
Going to buy all my Western games on DD - will pick up Wipeout 2048 first, then Gravity Rush whenever that comes out (JP demo was excellent, but I am too lazy too keep switching accounts now that the US store is up).
