Picked up the white ACL vita bundle today - its supremely gorgeous! (2 Vitas now, lol)

Also picked up NFS:MW on Vita, preordered PSASBR Vita too ^_^

I'm thinking about COD:BLOPS2:D, I know it won't be stellar - but R:BS had marvelous controls and the game was a notch above mediocre...hmmmm

Really liking the Vikings attack demo they had at GameStop - when does that hit PSN?

Foshy and other peeps, add me on PSN : pacificsun0481

(need to have some NFS battles :P
 
PSPgo was a flop, but probably the best flop Sony ever made. Just thinking about it today made me realize this. Before the Go came out PSP on PSN was pretty much non-existent. There were some grossly over priced SCEA PSP releases, but far from their full catalog at the time. Hell, for the longest time the PSN Store wasn't even available on PSP. You had to download content via a PC, or PS3. PSPgo pushed Sony and third parties to dump tonnes of content on the Store, and by doing so it created an ecosystem. An ecosystem that then harvested the Minis platform, as well as the Digital Comics service. Both of which have seemingly evolved onto Vita via PlayStation Mobile, and eReader. Of course, this is GAF and without PSPgo I don't think we'd have day and date PSN/retail releases for every Vita game. I absolutely don't think we'd still have PSP games being released in English in 2012/2013 if PSPgo didn't exist.

I'm not sure why I'm posting this here, but I felt like it, lol.
 
I LOVED my PSPgo. I went through a total of four PSPs, with my fourth and final being the PSPgo. I wish I still had it for no other reason than to play PSP2 or even some pocket emulators (not sure if that was CFW-able...I never bothered if it was). It was such a fantastic little device.
 
What did you do to that thing?

I've had a white DS3 since they came out in Japan and mine doesn't look yellowed at all!

Maybe its piss yellow for a reason x_x

Also the PSP will never die off. I'm expecting PSP localization announcements to like 2020 at this point.

Completely agree.
 
Heard Virtue's Last Reward has only Japanese language for the EU release which is £24.99 around online, anyone got a similar price to that for an american import version? looked on ebay and its around £35

Yeah exactly, i agree. There was a lot of talk about PSPGo being an experiment, and i definitely think it worked for them in terms of that. I agree that it was probably PSPGo which made them enforce day 1 digital versions of every game, and take the PSP/Vita seriously as a digital platform. Good stuff.
 
I wonder if anyone in the world ever bought that PSP Go racing wheel thing?

You can buy it from Video Games Plus for a similar price before shipping. Dunno how much that costs with shipping though.

Neat.

Now what to play first...
 
Picked it up this morning. It's another 3DS port from TT Fusion. But on the flip side, it's a fun game. I'll play through it, but won't bother with the platinum, then I'll trade/sell it in for at least $20.


Thanks.

I was wondering if they (rather than open world), were porting the areas/missions from the console versions. In the 3DS demo, when you fought Harley, the same area/battle, but far better looking in the 360 version. I was hoping the Vita version would be like that:

Console arena/areas ported, but not open world. If its identical to 3DS, well.....I'd rather have it in 3D.

I appreciate your feedback ^_^
 
Guys, I am now a Vitabro. Apparently, Futureshop had the damn bundle for the last two weeks. I went there this morning, and was told it hadn't arrived, due to the truck being delayed. Seems they thought I meant AC: Liberation itself, which they don't have. Even though my receipt states the bundle.

Ah well, just happy to finally have my Vita.

Besides AC3: Liberation, are there any other games with bad audio? How is NFS: MW?

Audio in NFS:MW is good. I have spent the last couple of minutes just trying to take control of billboards and speedzones from Foshy. This game is an absolute blast to play.

Welcome to the Vita-Brotherhood!

Go buy Mutant Blobs Attack.
 
NFS MW is a blast to play. Really fun. Runs smooth, looks really great once you get past the sub-native res, and sounds good too. Custom soundtracks work like you'd hope (the in-game music gets disabled and it will lower your music's volume if the commentator speaks and what-not). Uploading a short but clear video now (using my good camera). Unfortunately, I forgot to turn on my microphone so there's no audio :-( Makes me sad. I'll probably upload another with sound soon.
 
Seems like a lot of Alternative Rock. You are not able to go in and select which tracks play or see the number of tracks so I don't know for sure how large or diverse the selection is.

What's your PSN ID, W1SSY? Mine us the same as my GAF tag. Please add me for Autolog stuff, I'll be downloading my copy tonight.

Yea mine is W1SSY. Going to post again on this page that anyone looking for NFS:MW friends for autolog send me an invite.

I tried sending you a friends invite but said it could not be delivered because of recipient's settings.
 
Thank you for the welcomes!

As for MBA, it will have to wait until after ACIII:L, VLR, P4, Silent Hill, Ragnarok Odyssey, Gravity Rush, Uncharted, Little King's Story, Everybody's Golf... That's all that comes to mind right now.
 
Time to buy a new 32GB card! :P

I did that, though OCD kicked in when my bubbles went everywhere every time I changed to the other memory card :( Decided to stick with the one card and moved some games to my PS3 to free up some space :/

Hurry up Sony, we want bigger cards!

Pfft, you need to get your priorities right, sir :P

Big mistake. It's currently on sale, a small download, and absolutely fantastic! You couldn't spend $5 in a better purchase! :D

I have them mostly right with P4 and VLR! *Maybe* New Little King's Story. As a fan of the original, I wonder how I will take to the changes.

Big mistake. It's currently on sale, a small download, and absolutely fantastic! You couldn't spend $5 in a better purchase! :D

Haha, in that case I'll look into it. Can't really go wrong for $5.

They speak the truth. MBA is easily one of the best games on the platform and isn't real long. Bundle that with the fact it is on sale right now and every Vita owner should buy it if they do not already own it.
 
i don't own it, but a gaffer posted a video of the game and it had a drum & bass song playing. i seriously doubt there is drum & bass in the official soundtrack. it's not angsty enough.

Considering the very first trailer had firestarter as the sound track it wouldn't surprise me!

Top of the page : buy
me
AC:L and need for speed!

Yeah they really need to sort that out :( I have all of mine organised by format so i'd probably cry if they were re-arranged every time i changed memory cards. I'm really OCD about that kind of thing
