Support NeoGAF

[dose]

No. But you have to wait for them to be available. The clue is in the title of the thread

Lol, makes sense A mate signed up today and told me he'd downloaded Gravity Rush, I guess he'd got the demo lol.

 

[kai3345]

What do you mean? If you activate plus for your psn account you can access those games with it on your ps3 :/.

Ok, I was just making sure this wasn't some promotion to try and get PS3 owners to tie a Vita to their account or something.

 

[MikeE21286]

So glad I went with the 32gb card at launch. Completely justified now.

 

[Frustrated_Grunt]

I'm probably going to find myself a Vita now because of this.

FW 2.00:

Email app coming to Vita 2.00

Improved content manager, connect wirelessly to PC and upload to online storage

1080p playback on videos, closed captioning. New browser update, upgraded rendering engine. Sounds like HTML5 improved

Heh heh, looks like a solid set of changes.

Sony, work closer with Apple... while other Android folks shun them. It would be beneficial to you.

 

[Einbroch]

Subbed for PS+. I don't even own a Vita but I've always wanted to replay inFamous 2 and try Outland.

 

[Kodiak]

edit: wrong thread

 

[BladeoftheImmortal]

Well, I already own Wipeout, GR, and MBA, but I'm stoked as shit for JSRF and Uncharted: GA

 

[GayForMaster]

Yeah Wipeout is one of the best games on Vita. And I don't know what you mean by Uncharted being too choppy to enjoy on Vita. That's another great game. Just shouldn't have been $50.

That's... pretty depressing to hear.

 

[Skilletor]

That's... pretty depressing to hear.

Wipeout HD is one of the best games on any system. So...yeah, no. It's awesome.

 

[Takao]

Wipeout HD is one of the best games on any system. So...yeah, no. It's awesome.

Maybe he means it's depressing because Studio Liverpool was shut down? Unfortunately, quality does not always mean sales.

 

[thuway]

That's... pretty depressing to hear.

Wipeout is one of the best games on the PS3 as well....?

 

[Fafalada]

Gaikai use Virtualisation iirc to run multiple games on a server at the same time, but that would be much much harder to do with PS3 games than a normal PC one without being able to emulate PS3 hardware

"Virtualization" in context of clouds generally IS emulation. That said I'm not convinced that's what Gaikai did, games aren't exactly the type of software that distributes well - the stuff that CAN distribute well is also the most latency sensitive, and then there's stuff where there's no way around the need for having exclusive hw-resources.

 

[pslayer666]

That's... pretty depressing to hear.

Why is it so depressing?

Wipeout HD is one of the best games on any system. So...yeah, no. It's awesome.

Indeed. I actually enjoyed Wipeout 2048 more than HD. It's a fucking great Vita game.

 

[Maxwood]

Man, i'm so happy with my Vita. Dat OLed!
The whole handheld feels so good! And next week, all those free PS+ games...

Yeah. I'm gonna enjoy this!

 

[Melchiah]

That's... pretty depressing to hear.

The only thing depressing about it is that it isn't available on PS3.

 

[Apath]

The only thing depressing about it is that it isn't available on PS3.

It would be pretty depressing for the Vitas outlook. It gets called a port machine enough as is.

 

[lantus]

I heard the load times in wipe out are very long, is this true?

 

[Tailer]

I heard the load times in wipe out are very long, is this true?

The original content yes, dlc nope.

 

[FireCloud]

I heard the load times in wipe out are very long, is this true?

The original content yes, dlc nope.

I believe there was an update that came out not too long after 2048's release that improved load times a little. I picked it up just before that update hit so I can't really remember how bad they were in comparison. The way I play the load times aren't that big of a deal anyway. If after a race you go back and race the same track, the load is very minimal. So I only take the long load hit once or twice every gaming session.

It's still a great game. One of the many on Vita now.

 

[Melchiah]

It would be pretty depressing for the Vitas outlook. It gets called a port machine enough as is.

True, but I don't really want to buy a gaming system just for one game, eventhough that game belongs to a franchise I love.

 

[BigTnaples]

Impressive. Especially since it is one sub for both systems.


Never thought I would bite on PS+ but this may do me in.

Especially since the only two games I own on that list are Uncharted and LBP2.

 

[jimmythepage]

Why no JSR Free for the PAL countries?
Oh yeah, they still actually make some money out of us...

let's hope Chronovolt will be good.

 

[hyp]

copped a COD bundle today just cause of this PS+ hotness. loving it so far. can't wait to try out all the games next week. anyone know where I could get a decent deal on a 32gb card?

$30 USD for a whole year? Goddamn, that's a nice price.

 

[Snapshot King]

Am I the only one who is continually apathetic to PS+? Every game they offer I either don't care about, don't like, or already own. Everybody keeps saying what a great value it is, but it's literally 0 for me. =\

It's certainly not for everyone. If you usually buy on launch it's not a good offer. Still, you can save a lot with the discounts.

I think I'll resub.

 

[Toki767]

HK made out pretty well. Unit 13 and first access to Rocketbirds. I feel so bad for Japan.

Nice. Hopefully that means we get Unit 13 soon as well.

 

[Deleted member 20920]

$30 USD for a whole year? Goddamn, that's a nice price.

I think it's only cheaper for Hong Kong. The Singapore PS+ charges S$6.99 per month ,which works out to be about US$5.60 or so. Asian Vita is also about US$75 dollars more expensive than the US set. It's S$399(US$325) for the wifi set here.

But I have to say that the games are usually slightly cheaper.

Looking forward to Vita PS+

 

[Andrefpvs]

So, I guess we can expect this in a few hours, no?

It sounds like the firmware will, but the Store update will be Tuesday as usual.

Yes, yes, I was talking about the firmware

Sorry guys about this question:

Is the Firmware tomorrow US? Store update Tuesday US?

 

[BomberMouse]

Sorry guys about this question:

Just pretend the store updates on Wednesday at 0:01 am. This update surely will be late.

 

[Iacobellis]

Subscribing so the Vitabros can keep me updated.

 

[foxmedik]

Can't wait. I think Email is kinda useless, but I'm pretty stoked about wireless content manager.

 

[Phoenician_Viking]

Just subscribed to PSNPlus. I need to make more space on my HDD.

[WonkyPanda]

Just to double-check: you lose access to the PS+ game if you end the sub., correct?
