I don't think that I can make it to $100, to have $20 back. So far I spend about 8 dollars so far, and I plan to renew my plus, but with the delays of Jet Set Radio and GGXX^C+ (for the PS3), I don't know what to spend.

Maybe FF3 and Dokuro, but I don't know...

How about the three big games that release on the 30th?

Edit: buy NFS and AC:L
 
Not sure if this is the right thread but:

The Near app has stopped working on my Vita and is displaying "an error has occurred" when I try and update my location. It says it's found my location but gives me an error when trying to send it to the server.

Any ideas?

It's been doing that for me ever since the 1.8 update. No idea why. It used to work perfectly.

Buy a bunch of Montezuma Blitz dlc.

With all the recent sales still going on, all the new releases out and coming out tues if you cant hit $100 id say pack it in.
 
I know I'm really reaching here, but are there any reviews out yet for AC:L, RO, or NFS? Particularly video reviews? I'd especially like to see some decent footage of NFS on Vita, as all of the clips I've seen on Youtube were over the shoulder, and of poor quality.

It was always like that for me (3G model but I do not use a simcard). If I try to connect using my home wi-fi I have to try at least 10 times before it can detect my location. But if I use my smartphone hotspot it always get my location at the first time. Maybe it is related to the way the location is determined over wi-fi networks.

Cross buy ?
 
MW: So, if you play the single-player game, and then play muliplayer, any Speed Points you earn in SP also drive your MP progression, and that’s true when you play the game on PS Vita too. Anything you earn on PS Vita carries across to the console version. It’s a unified scoring system.
Everything you do in the game earns Speed Points. Speed Points determine your position on the Most Wanted list. Am I outscoring my friends; have I reached the necessary score threshold to take on one of the Most Wanted drivers in the solo game; what speed level am I at in MP; what have I unlocked, and so on. I can push up my Speed Point level on PS3 multiplayer when I’m mobile with PS Vita, and vice versa.

...

I think it will turn out to be something that PS Vita owners didn’t realize was possible on that machine – it is quite a significant achievement to do an open world game to the level of quality that we’ve managed. And then to have something as highly connected as it is – that’s something fresh and new. I think it will find a really good home on PS Vita.
PSB: What kind of exclusive PS Vita content have you included?
MW: There are some exclusive PS Vita races and events in there for players to discover. It’s another way for players to earn exclusive SP – it’s an extra reward for having the game on multiple devices and it allows us to do something specifically tuned to that device.
PSB: Have you used the PS Vita’s unique features in any way?
MW: We’ll use the touch screen for changing music tracks and in some parts of the interface but the rest of it… you have to use those things where they serve a purpose, otherwise they’re just a gimmick. You run the risk of it not being taken seriously. We’ll absolutely use it when it makes sense to use it.

Oh man, this is gonna be good.
 
Presumably you’ll be supporting the PS3 version post launch with DLC. Will that also apply to the PS Vita version?
Matt Webster: Well, we’ll clarify that when the time comes.
Click to expand...
I don't like the sound of that bit though. Sounds like there won't be any DLC.
 
Wait, is NFS really $60 on Vita?

As soon as I finish up a few titles, this is getting bought. I need to create a list of "must buys" so that I can keep up with my huge library of Vita games.

Oh sorry, i thought you were a US'er. Apologies. Yeah it's well worth £5 :)

Monkey Ball being £29.99 on PSN makes me sad when it's £15 in shops. What the hell, Sega? I might have picked it up digitally for £15, but i certainly won't for £29.99. Not now, not ever.
Click to expand...

Arse. It's not the sort of game I'd want a physical copy of, but that price is crazy. Even GAME have it for £14.99
 
Ugh... My Vita is cracked and the screen is dead. Now I gotta ask myself if I should send it in to repair or just get the AssCred Bundle.

Earth Defense Force 2017 Portable...so bought. Thie is Earth Defense Force 3 in Japan right?

Mostly because of Pale Wing.

You do know it's coming to the West in Q1 of next year right? It's way sooner than I thought but yeah :) So excited!

Damn, you are on a roll! You have the same taste in games as me :) I know the price of NLKS is a bit steep, especially if you're doing digital, but it's such a great game. It has flaws (mostly only in the framerate dropping here and there) but it's so rewarding. Tons of content.

Damn, sorry to hear that man :\ I've gotten into multiple arguments with my wife over mine, she's threatened to throw it out the window multiple times.. I'm so happy she hasn't ;(
did your significant other throw your vita out the window?

I'm getting sucked more and more into RCR. I barely had time to work on the OT for RO last night, and I got a little bit of time to play RCR and play through story mode some more. Since I should have a lot of down time at work today I'll get all the body text done and then all I'll need to do is finish up the headers for each section. I was also touching up some of the character class renders, I want to have the bios for all of them as well. I'll definitely be able to finish the OT before the weekend is over but man, so little time lately :\

Maybe. I took as meaning "if that were the case, we'd have said so" lol. But i'm a pessimist, so.

Yeah it's stupid. When your price is double GAME's you know you've got a problem

That's the PS3 version. In North America the max a Vita game can go is $50. Only two games have done that price point - Uncharted: Golden Abyss and Call of Duty: Black Ops - Declassified ...

It's funny because here in the UK some Vita games are the same price as PS3 games.

Whoa, I had no idea the games were linked in that way. Now I have a another game to buy. I'm glad there's no nonsense use of touch just for the sake of it.

How is it broke already?!
Click to expand...

I have it in my pocket with the soft fabric case around it (I buy pants with big pockets just for this :P). I turned a corner and smashed the screen on the edge of the desk at work. :( The system functions and there's a small crack on the screen but like the Knowledge Center says:

Unlike the PSP system where the screen will have spiderweb-like cracks and the screen will still turn on; when the PS Vita screen is cracked, no image will appear on the screen at all making it harder to see if the screen is damaged.

Damn makes me wish it had a clam shell design now!

Heh. Well that's the thing against buying the AssCred bundle. It's white so there's no hiding the fact that I bought another Vita.

I keep mine in the VIP case if im not using it. I really like it. Its a snug fit and it can even fit in my jeans pocket which is handy at times.

Talking of UK prices - I didn't realise that ACL was £40. No thank you.
Click to expand...

For big games like this i expect it for Vita now, i mean i paid £42.99 i think for Uncharted: GA. Doesnt make it right but if the game deserves it i dont mind so much

Luckily for me i managed to pre order AC3:L on SHopto for just over £30 ages ago, plus i have about £1.80 in points so quite a cheap pick up in the end :)
 
^ Ah crap, really? I should've checked earlier. For me, more than say, £35 is just beyond the entry point unless it's something special or I have to import to get it. :)

Carl said:
Yeah it's kind of weird that it's the same price as AC3 here, but it's cheaper than AC3 in the US. Makes no sense.

I'm still buying it though...
Click to expand...

That's a crazy price on AC3 for US customers, then. When ACL is down to £30 I'm probably sold. It does look great.

Also - the deed is done. Mutant Blobs get! Now, where's my occult identification card and plush robe?
