I'm going to wait for Gravity Rush to go on sale. It doesn't seem like there's a reason this generation to buy day one when shit goes on sale two weeks after launch.
Vita games haven't really dropped in value much at all yet
I'm still waiting on some launch titles to drop in price that are still hovering above 30 quid
 
No. You don't need to format the memory card. I don't think you mean the system memory, as that does not include downloadable content. There is an extra prompt if you want to format the memory card. Just say no.

Memory card = Some save games, DLC, games, demos.
System mem = Wifi settings, what background images are selected, etc.

I did mean system memory, actually. What I was basically asking was, has anyone figured out a way to switch PSN accounts (or at least the active PSN account for downloaded data) that didn't involve a factory reset of the system?

Downloadable content seems to be tied to the account. I don't know about add-ons, but you can't buy a game on your japanese account and play it on your american account.

So just like the PSP then? Except you can't use a PS3 to manage the active PSN account for content like you could on a PSP?
 
Anyone have either/both of these games and wants to comment? I'm considering getting a vita + 4 gb + one of those two games bundle.

The games are resistance and fifa soccer. I just recently played resistance 3 on ps 3 and thought it was pretty fun. Too bad no disgaea 3 or Gravity rush bundle...

Buying the bundle is about the same price as a normal discounted vita + a 4gb card, so the game is a "bonus".

I bought FIFA day one and although I traded it in it is a really great game. If you like football at all then it could be worth getting. Aside from that if you aren't bothered about either game you could check which one has a better trade in value.

Haven't played a football game in many years, but I thought it might be fun for short spurts of gaming.

Good idea about the trade-in value of the games. I never considered that. Unfortunately you don't get physical games but download codes, apparently.

Ah yes, I forgot about that. FIFA is good for that, I don't usually play them but I will be getting FIFA 13 on the Vita because it is good like that. I think FIFA could be the better game since it is a download. I doubt Resistance has much, if any, replay value.
 
Forgot I had this. Don't want a lurker to get it, don't want someone who has it already to get it. Giving away a Unit 13 online pass. First to PM me. Though you have to sign an agreement in blood you'll play with me once online. I haven't had the chance to try out co-op yet.
 
Can I get a UK PSN price check on Rayman, Everybody's Golf, Disgaea 3 and Lumines?

And you can download games through your PC into the Vita right? I don't have Wifi.
 
I tried asking in another thread but maybe someone here will know, will P4 the golden Japanese release have English text? It's a long shot but it releases soon in Japan and I read that some Japanese vita games had full English text...

Unfortunately there are no PC based client to download content on your PC. However, if you own a PS3 you can transfer content.

Pretty much impossible I imagine. Atlus isn't going to spring for a cart big enough to fit 2 voice tracks, and text.

Rayman = £29.99
Disgaea 3 = £34.99
Everybody's Golf = £11.99
Lumines = £29.99


Edit:
It's not that much of a deal. They've been new on eBay for £160 for ages. I found one for £147 new...
eBay is very different to getting it from a store though.
 
Hey guys can you please give me advice on which case to buy for my Vita, I live in the UK, so please only links to places I can buy from in the UK, also I want this case to be really cheap, I've already spent enough on my vita. Thank you.

I picked it up yesterday, there is no English text or voice track (of course :p)
 
What game are you guys getting tomorrow? MGS or Gravity Rush?

I bought Modnation racers last week from BBY, but Best Buy is having a 100% extra trade in bonus, so Modnation will trade in for $22, so that helps a little bit, I'm still torn though, only played a little bit of MGS 2. I really liked Twin Snakes and then I played MGS2 on a Xbox and then it broke and I forgot MGS but everyone is raving about MGS.

and Gravity Rush...well its Gravity Rush

MGS even though I have played through both games more than any other game haha. I just know I'll get a lot of replay value out of it. Will get Gravity Rush a little later.

Gravity Rush. My hype. It is through the roof.

Metal Gear has already made its money. Gravity Rush is something new.

People complain about Vita not having exclusive (myself included) and here's a great one.

I'm bringing my Vita to work and I'll download Gravity Rush and hopefully have my copy of MGS when I get home soooo....both :D

For me, it's the other way around. I need to have MGS but I'm gonna wait it out. Gravity Rush is new and refreshing and I want this game to do as well as it possibly can given the install base.

I'm gonna get both. Gravity Rush as DD, MGS on cart.

Sweet. Just got my invite. Thanx for the heads up.
 
Guys, my MGS question is this.
I played a bit of MGS1 on pc once, years ago, and kinda liked it.
Then, not long ago, I completed MGS4 on PS3 and I HATED it.
My question is if the Vita version will be worth it for me?
 
More LBP Vita Beta invites going out it seems.

Mine is downloading now. I can't wait to check this out.

I should also note that my E-mail was in my Spam folder, despite the fact that the sender "Playstation Network" is never sent to my spam folder. I had 2 E-mails from that sender in my inbox, got dismayed, then found the invite in spam.

What did you hate about MGS4? As far as I'm concerned, MGS2 & 3 are two of the greatest games ever made, and they're generally favored over MGS4, but it all depends on what turned you off about MGS4. MGS2 & 3 are much better when it comes to story and gameplay, but they still have the long, crazy cutscenes and the somewhat convoluted control schemes that the series is known for.

Even if it's new and sealed?

Yes but I suppose not as much so. It's more of the fact that one can never be certain that something bought on eBay is legit until it is delivered. I'd personally rather go through a reputable retailer even if it means paying more. So far Zavvi is the best price, it's a very good price in its own right though. I'd recommend a Vita to anybody at that price.
