Whynot 5&6, TTT as well? I mean T6 had a PSP port that was supposed to be excellent.
I'd settle for a TTT2 port, though.
It's doable. Sacrifices will be made but they'd nail down the core game.

When Vikings Attack! is the new Mutant Blobs Attack!!
Charming game so far.
Charming game so far.
What do you like about it? Still not convinced.

Woah now lets not get hasty
You should Carl it up ... or does somebody else claim it?
Do you have it? hehe
I could buy either this, or a good and fun PSP game like Kenka Bancho or whatever I please. Would you suggest picking this over a good PSP game?

I found MBA kind of charming but pretty unremarkable. Surprised at the hype it was getting here.
I don't know. A good PSP game will probably be a bigger and more in depth game than this, but this is still great fun. It's not like it's a masterpiece or anything; just a really fun little game.
It has some pretty excellent level design in places. Not a 10/10 game by any means, but I think the perfect storm of being a launch title, being very reasonably priced, and having tons of charm makes it a very attractive purchase.

Agreed. Played the first 10-15 levels while the power was out last week and while it was charming, I didn't see much that makes me want to play more.
that's why i played monster tale on my ds instead

Hey that sounds like When Vikings Attack! Maybe FantasticMrFox was right.

Touché
It's native res right?
Yes it certainly is. Looks great. Nice self shadowing on the players, too.
I might make a video of it tonight while explaining a little about it.

My concern is that it looks pretty repetitive, like SCB or something. MBA was cool while I was trying to 100% it, because I was exploring or finding the blob friends... the core gameplay on WVA makes me think it'd be like SunFlowers to me, where I play it a bit and think it's fun, but never boot it up because I've played it enough that I got bored of the core mechanic.

Overall score was 80/100.

Oh jesus! Your new avi is terrifyingly creepy. Is that what you were going for?
Also, can't believe that thread was actually made. So many other people keep saying we have stockholm syndrome, being paranoid against anyone saying anything negative against the Vita but man... if you need evidence of an agenda against the Vita - that thread is perfect. Ipad 4 smashes Vita in benchmark ... but there's no benchmark against the Vita :|
Is it better than MBA?

I just got my press key for When Vikings Attack (thanks devs!) but since my router screwed itself yesterday I have to use my mobile net to download it 
I understand why they wouldn't understand some of our enthusiasm for the console and (perhaps) its potential, especially if they don't own one. The ability to jump into a game that has a similar experience to playing a proper console game, in an instant (standby) and completely in the palm of your hands as well as being displayed on the beautiful OLED is something you really only can understand after owning one (and having games you enjoy).
There was a draught and understandably some people got bored and sold theirs (due to a lack of patience or maybe fund shortage) but anyway there are enough (just about) impressive titles now that still have that same feeling I was talking about, and coupled with the convenience of portability, it just becomes the ideal gaming platform, especially for a busier/less patient gamer (or actually on the go) - and that makes me believe it has potential despite current sales, as well as making me appreciate games that comes out on it that I wouldn't usually play. It should be appealing enough, broke gamers are resisting/waiting it out...flood them with ads
Tbh the vita is more my hostage these days, not without it long and I'm permanently in fairhaven - loving the Lamborghini Aventador. Think it might just beat the Porsche Spyder 918. Some beautiful cars in this game, just missing ferraris really (licensing I think)..Another audi would have been nice too, but good selection overall, and the nicer R8 is there. Cars do look quite good in NFS:MW.
And about not everyone sharing that same feeling...I'm hoping they at least sense it. Ads SCEA...

Nice, looking forward to your video thoughts
On the Carlometer, it ranks about the same
I'll add it to my list of games to buy during the winter Vita drought.
Is it like Swords and Soldiers? If so then I might share corrosivefrost's feelings on gameplay, might save it for a rainy day like ZeroAKA but would love to see a video vanwinkle if you get to it.. doesn't sound like S&S..
Some gameplay footage from ps3 sp here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A5nOrnIfnYA&t=3m
It's nothing like S&S..seems pretty enough for the price but is the gameplay fun enough that you'll want to replay it later on? I don't like throwaways much, especially digital..Decent that it has MP, it's set up for replay...but do you feel like it?

My local Walmart has Dynasty Warriors Next, Mortal Kombat, and LEGO Harry Potter for $20 a piece. Yay/nay on any of those?
I'd say MK is probably worth $20..would help kill the wait on a sfxt price drop, if you don't have that or aren't interested in it.
Decent content (a lot of mini-games too), a word of warning about the graphics but a lot of people say it's still a lot of fun (don't own it myself but read a lot about it) and doesn't look too bad in-motion (60fps) except when they do the closeup camera stuff for some moves - character textures don't look so hot. Check a video..
Check out the demo for Dynasty Warriors....there's one in the UK store anyway.
Ah yep as ZeroAKA says, MK has gone on sale for $10.

Yes to Dynasty Warriors. Mortal Kombat has been on sale for $10 multiple times and will go on sale again during Black Friday, so I'd wait on that. I'm not a fan of the Lego games.

i like how you gave up on me ):
Yep!
I wanted an avatar to represent my love for Onepunch-Man, and this one was my favorite out of the few(though the gorilla came close.)MK Vita has been cheaper before and will probably go for less again, and Lego Harry Potter is, I believe, a whatever 3DS port. Dumb gimmicks aside, Dynasty Warriors Next is a REALLY solid DW title that's definitely worth picking up, especially if you're a fan of the other titles.

I've never played a DW game, so I've got nothing to compare it to. I'll keep an eye out for the others at a cheaper price, but I may go grab DW tomorrow. Thanks guys.
Thanks guys.The Grim Heaper

I think there is, but it doesn't really grasp the full version as much, given how huge it really is. You only get to use one or two of the touch stuff and only Zhao Yun and Zhenji are playable. Still though, give it a whirl.
There is a demo.
Ah okay thanks guys, yeah I wasn't blown away by the demo.. full version is better? Seemed really chaotic and button mashy - was worried about my vita at the time. Also, I've never played a DW before either so don't think I knew what I was doing -it's being sold for pretty much nothing here sometimes (retail).

Yeah :S and quality demos help sell..
Off-topic but I was watching some tv today and they did this special news bit on new gaming stuff (can't remember the channel ..but remember telling my family to shush hah) and it revealed halo 4 which surprisingly looks quite good, nothing from nintendo iirc and then the Sony Wonderbook :/ Which actually impressed my sister and mum - nothing else.
Is that actually the brutal truth of the full game too..?

Sounds rather standard for DW/Sengoku Basara titles

I picked up Hot Shots Golf today. I was going to get a $20 PSN card, and buy Persona 3 Portable, and FF Tactics, but decided to get an actual Vita game. HSG will be a great time killer tomorrow, while I am stuck waiting in the car for an hour.
Edit: Oh, I'm top of the page. Does that mean I recommend Mutant Blobs Attack?
Buy it!
