Just saw that they updated the EU store, saw CoD and NFSMW there, and downloaded Super Stardust PSP (free for PS+ users).

I purchased Alien Breed from PSM, a port of the iOS remake of the Amiga classic with new additional content. Feels great with dual analog controls! Nice to see a new and cool Team 17 logo!

I also got Darkstalkers Chronicles, had the UMD and was awesome because featured all the content from the series plus a new mission based Tower game mode. I'm downloading it, can't wait to see how it looks in the OLED and how it plays with this great dpad.

Why is PS+ getting free PSP games in EU already? I thought PS+ for Vita started next week?
 
In regards to the pocket gamer review I'd like to point out that they re the site that ran a review of NFS which had false information in it, took it down the put up an edited version with the same score and also scored NFS iOS a 9 while vita got 7 so...

Don't trust pocket gamer reviews
 
hey guys so i have managed to track down one review of COD BOD. Its not looking good 8) Its also the only review currently linked on metacritic

http://www.pocketgamer.co.uk/r/PS+Vita/Call+of+Duty:+Black+Ops+-+Declassified/review.asp?c=46568

Ugh, all the reviewers are going to bang on like whiny little bitches about how butt hurt they are because they didn't receive the game then post useless reviews like that.

The retards don't get that they aren't getting the games because they so fucking stupid they give shit cut down mobile phone versions of the games HIGHER scores than the Vita version.

lol.
 
Anyone have the AC3:L bundle with the white Vita?

Interested in the game but the thought of visible dirt and discoloured nubs has me worried

I have the white Vita bundle and it's awesome. The colored nubs actually makes a nice contrast. No dirt or grime is showing, but I don't know if it will stay that way in a year or two. My friend just got done playing it for 3 hours and he has really sweaty hands and all that dirt just wiped off, so I can't see it ever making a difference.
 
I think PSM games should be included on the live area for the Store, at least if it's a big ish release.

Just downloaded Alien Breed. No button support in the Menu is REALLY annoying.

Seems to carry a save over between Classic and Enhanced mode. Classic mode has shooting in just the old 8 directions, Enhanced is ...many directions. Looks like it should be good for whiling away a few minutes here and there!

I'm disappointed because i wanted to play the real classic alien breed without the second analog like the original and no visible standard shots, that was difficult!
Other than that it looks good, even tha original graphics looks better than many indie games.
Now i really hope for a remake of superfrog and assassin.
 
So, do we know if the white Vita is getting launched in the UK? Pretty much ready to pull the trigger, but I REALLY want the white one.

Relax dude. Maybe the game just isn't very good.
 
Downloaded the Ragnarok demo and darn if it doesn't make me wish the Vita had a good loot RPG, or a Phantasy Star: Portable Game.

Its the best on-line shooter any mobile device has, and the score does not reflect that.

The score and the text reflects the fact the whiny little shit did not get his usual basket of bribes....

The shit cut down iOS version of NFSMW got a 9 on the very same site, I mean fucking come on.... They gave the Vita version an 8.
 
Yeah everyone was saying how the Ubisoft games would drop in price in no time, and they ended up not dropping at all. I already have Rayman on PS3, but I would like it on my Vita, too. Just not full price want.
I was waiting on it too - picked it up for £10 not too long ago, which is pretty sweet.

I'm dying here.



Btw: any of y'all not using a screen protector? Been using a hori one... but I feel it's hurting visuals a bit... not sure, or maybe recent vita games all look crappy :S
 
Pocket Gamer are awful.

In other news, this was in the EU blog comments on Vita PS+:

Are the 20% off titles likely to appear for free in the service any time soon? Wouldn’t want to buy at a discount and then get burned!

Posted on 13 November, 2012 at 5:00 pm by Chris Howe
No I will avoid having them in the service so we don’t meet that situation!

Those 20% titles:

Escape Plan
Unit 13
Hustle Kings
MotorStorm RC
Super Stardust Delta and Advanced Star Fighter Pack Bundle
Top Darts
Little Deviants
Modnation Racers: Road Trip
Reality Fighters

They also say in a separate comment that the refresh rate for Vita PS+ games is two games a month. While it's good that they're ensuring people don't feel burned by not offering the sale games, that rules out a lot of games, so in future months it'll be interesting to see what they do.
 
Is it possible to use two memory card on the same account, i mean one time i use one meomory card, one time the other, with no annoying operations or problems?

yeah sure, just keep in mind, that icons will be rearranged by their BLES/BLUS/etc. codes when switching.

Yup, no problems at all.

EDIT: Aside from above! Icon organisation is a mess anyway. :(
Ok thanks, the icon order is not a problem, i alread gave up(sometimes i switch between eu and jap accounts, and everytime the icon order return to the default one)
So i guess there's no real need for a 32 gb card, i already have a 16gb and a 4gb(used for the jp account) memory cards, so if i have a space problem with ps+ content the 4gb mc could help me or at least i could buy another 16gb memory card.
 
I'm on a 16 GB. Don't see me jumping on a 32 GB anytime soon.

Same here, I can juggle it just fine. All my Vita games are physical except MBA. The rest is PSP/PSX stuff that I have yet to really get into or wouldn't feel bad about removing while I play U:GA
 
I'm on an 8GB at the moment, it's full but it does have quite a few PSP, PS1 and PSN games on. For now I'll just remove them while I play the Vita games, and hope they eventually bring out a 64GB for the current price of the 32GB (yeah, wishful thinking).
 
Aabs Animals is coming out on November 29 on Japan PS Store. The price is 1,000yen.

From the description, it says that this is an AR game with no objectives whatsoever other than for you to admire the animals. You can take pictures too. The developers hope that it'll encourage users to adore and love real animals as well. More than 1% from the sales will be donated to the Headquarters for the Relief of Animals.
 
Relax dude. Maybe the game just isn't very good.

Its pretty good. Single player is pretty lacking in content and it could do with 2 more multiplayer maps but the online feels like a cod thats half way between MW1 and BlOps. Its really fun.

Review sites are gonna hate it though lol.

So anyway between CoD and Need for speed I think my vita gaming is sorted for a while. Both have great online modes and il prob get RO when it arrives in EU as well.

So il prob be getting a 32gb card and PS+ and play the free games and then go back to the online on those 3 games. Pretty sweet.

Im really loving need for speed by the way. The game is so damn fast and so damn fun. Power slidering round a huge bend in a lamborghini countach narrowly missing 3 on coming cars in the process at breakneck speeds is quite the rush. All with my music playing at the same time.

The traffic seems just right to be enough to be an obstacle and not to much to drive you nuts during races to me. How do other people feel on this issue? is more traffic in the console version a good or a bad thing?

Had a multiplayer game on it as well and I like the set up of racing about doing different events and just generally dicking about having fun.

Good to know

I went through with the purchase. If I get iffy about it I'll slap a cover on
 
Meijer will have 40% off all Vita titles and 50% off all accessories on Black Friday. Maybe memory cards are included. Would be a steal for people near one.
 
So gonna impulse buy a game I think (Even though i'm still playing RO and have AC:L to finish, god help me!) and I'm not too sure what to get between NFS:MW or CoD. I've read up on both and i'm usually more of a FPS player than a racer fan but NFS:MW does sound very good.

Tough one. NFS: has a LOT more offline content and a great online side as well. Also in the single player it will show you your friends jump distances, speed camera speeds etc etc for you to keep trying to beat. Its a really well made game I feel.

CoDs online feels like CoD to me. Only 6 maps but people tend to just vote for the same few maps anyway. If you are really craving an online shooter its worth it. Otherwise go for need for speed. Offline is REALLY barebones. You can blast through it in an hour aparently but its designed to be replayed on harder difficulties and to beat your old scores. Not an issue for me as I only bought it for the online (played a good 3-4 hours last night and had a blast) but its worth considering.
 
Oh, they finally updated the adverts at the bottom of the notXMB. They had been pretty much unchanged for months ;P

They need to find some way to automate most of that stuff, like the store LiveArea background and the icons on it. It seems they have to do everything manually so it takes forever and defeats the whole purpose of all the ads.
