Is the Hori PS vita elite pack worthwhile? It comes with a pouch and screen protector and stuff and is only 16 on amazon. The regular Hori screen protectors are out of stock so I was thinking of just grabbing this

Having only played P3P and not the vanilla and FES versions, I know I could never go back to them. Sure I missed the movement, cutscenes and adventure aspect compared to when I played P4, but not being able to control characters in battle would be aggravating. The most I could (and did) do was view the scenes on YouTube.
Besides Female side was awesome. Preferred it over Male side
Jesus had to suffer in the desert for 40 days and he didn't even have shoes... P3P may be the devil, but I'll show up the Jesus chump by playing through it again.
So he should do a 3rd playthrough of p3p?

The characters have some fun one liners and there is a funny encyclopedia for the monsters and heroes, but there isnt exactly much of a "story" other than "GO RULE THE WORLD". As you said, gameplay is king. Besides, Mario games have the disadvantage of being super easy most of the time. If you are looking for a challenge, No Heroes Allowed should be on your to buy list at one point. You'll never be "bored" since there is always stuff to do in the dungeon. If anything, people complain that its too challenging (which is pretty much the only complaint I've heard so far).

Well it's spiritual sequel Kamisama to Unmei Kakumei no Paradox will probably get a Vita port a while after the PS3 version.I thought it was an upcoming Vita game
That looks really, really, good. Not only in the graphics department, but the gameplay as well. Leagues above Ragnarok Odyssey and hopefully as polished as Monster Hunter.

I can't tell jack from that video, as the person who was playing did not seem to have a good idea of the game mechanics for a large majority of the video -- I want to see a demo from one of the QA testers or something to give me an idea of any variety/depth that can come from spending time with the game. There were a couple good things in it though (as far as demonstrating a bit of variety) and it looks great visually.
Hopefully it's nothing like that awful overhyped boring-fest called Monster Hunter,what SS need is to take this genre-which sadly is stuck in the past- forward, they need to not copy any of the MH crap (the boring combat system,horrible grinding,quests style,segmented areas,lack of story) and take advantage of Vita hardware to give the players "modern" and fun experience, not just copying a bad game like what Ragnarok Odyssey did.
I was amazed at how fast you learn the controls after playing the demo twice. There should be a demo out this month its worth switching to japanese account in my opinion.
Hurrah.
It's a bug that they are working on. Not sure how the fuck it got past QA.
This SOUL SACRIFICE VIDEO needs to be seen by more people
felt nothing like monster hunter to me it felt like a straight up action game where you customize your character. As soon as i chose and connected to the other player, there was a book and you went from the book straight into combat. Monster hunter is boring after downloading freedom unite I couldnt see what was so popular about it at all. Sorry my monster hunter vitabros.
Man, I don't get how people can call Monster Hunter boring. Sure, the gathering materials part of the game is boring, but you barely even have to do that. The majority of the game is fighting bosses that can demolish you if you aren't careful. Having to be on your toes at all times is what makes the game so exciting.
Since we are talking about bugs, I really want them to get that stupid Near bug sorted out. In case anyone wondered why you didnt receive any Near goods in the past few days -> You need to manually update Near atm to get trade goods.
I agree with you. If I hadnt played it to death already, I'd probably pick up the PSP MonHun for Vita atm. Maybe I'll give God Eater Burst a try at some point.

There will be no international demo?
Yeah, I've considered buying Unite again for Vita multiple times, but I've already played it so much, and I have so many other games to play too. I still haven't played God Eater Burst yet either, so maybe I'll get to that at some point. But by the time that happens, Monster Hunter 3DS will be out so I'll be playing that, lol.

I don't think you'll get rid of your segmented areas, as I think each fight is a chapter in the book; this means, at best, it might be a little like demon souls, but I think it'll be more like monster hunter in the regard that you'll be put in an area with the battle/boss that corresponds with that chapter... not sure if spannicus can comment more, since he's played the demo.
I agree entirely. MHFU didn't do much for me. I tried and played a lot of the tutorials and such, but it just isn't my type of game.
If I had a spare memory card, sure. But I'm not formatting my 32gb card to play the demo. :\
Glad to hear it's easy to pick up... the way the demos make it look when you get random floor footage like that is repetitive to me. That guy just kept dodging, running away, and throwing the same projectile for the most part. At least that's what I took away from it all.
Hey man, I love boss battles. I just don't love all the stuff you have to do to get to them I guess. Plus the combat on the PSP version, at least, doesn't seem deep enough for me as an action game fan...
Near bug sounds annoying... glad I don't really use it.
And God Eater Burst looks a lot more fun to me than Monster Hunter, though I'm not sure why? Not willing to plunk down $20 for it though.
Probably once it's localized... but since the only release date set right now is like March 2013 for Japan, I don't see it coming anytime soon.
I like getting treasure park maps
And Uncharted + AC trade offers dont hurt either, but at least AC, most people just "look" for stuff, instead of "sending" stuff out, which kinda defeats the purpose since that is what everybody seems to be doing.I like getting treasure park maps
I'm still not getting the whole 'trading' part of Near. I try to send stuff out but there is no visual indication that I'm actually doing it, and I try to get stuff but stuff pops in and out in what seems like a buggy process. I'm trying to figure out the quirks, but it seems impenetrable to me.
Now I know how annoying I sound to other people when I rant about "Charlie Tunoku".
I agree with the visual indication thing. Try using Treasure Park. You get a message when others pick up what you sent out via Near and others sending you stuff actually gives you something to do. Its a free app anyway, and I think the best integration of Near so far (since the whole game is based around it).
Ya, I've got Treasure Park, but I've never opened it since it requires me to close whatever other game I'm playing. I've actually exited out of AC3: Lib now (Because of that black screen bug) so I may boot up Treasure Park first thing and futz around with that.
Well, I can confirm that DLC will NOT work if you're getting it from a different country, even if it is from the same region
Thanks for verifying. I'll make sure to let others know. Which DLC did you buy in which region?
Its just a small thing that you are supposed to check like once daily, though. Just a fair warning
(I want more maps though! People on my friends list: Make some maps!)Thanks for verifying. I'll make sure to let others know. Which DLC did you buy in which region?

I bought the Maid Pack for Gravity Rush from the Irish PSN, where I still had some credit left over, and tried to transfer it to my UK PSN Vita. It said that the content 'belonged to another user'. Thank god I tested this before getting Wipeout, which has an online pass (which I assume has the same problem)

Damn this thread!!! I was almos forgot the hype i have for Soul Sacrifice, I want this game right now!!!
Isnt the release date set for Spring 2013 (march 21- June21)? I dont belive they will release this game in the same month as MH4.
I thought you were buying a retail Irish game and using it on your UK account and wanted UK DLC.
You've bought DLC on a Irish account which means of course you can't transfer it to a UK account. You can't transfer content between PSN accounts and since the Vita can only access one at a time what you have attempted will not work.
If you were going to buy Wipeout 2048 at RETAIL and use it on your UK account then I'm still confident that you'll be able to download UK DLC.
Ah damn, I totally misread his post. Yeah, you are right. The problem he enountered wasnt region specific, but because it was content from a different account.
Oh ok, yeah that would make sense then. Yeah other people told me that it wouldn't work as well, but I thought I would try it anyway. In any case, it's only 4 euros, so I don't really mind. I think I might get some UK PSN cards from Amazon.
Still not sure if the online pass will work for wipeout though - not sure if i'll be able to input the code into the UK PSN, as they are usually shorter here in Ireland. Man, I wish Sony didn't have to make things so difficult... Ah well. At least the games are great.
On a different note, how difficult is it to get 100% trophies in Travel Bug?
Odd, are all codes for PSN not 12 digits?
EDIt: I'd be stunned if they put different length codes in different countries boxes that are in the same region.
Pretty sure the Irish ones are 9 digits, gonna check now
EDIT: yeah, nine digits. pretty funny, cause the text on the little card that has the code printed on it says "please enter your 12 digit code" in the instructions
Hmm.. what is that code from?
Have you tried just typing a 12 digit random code into the Ireland store to see if it will even let you put that many characters in?
Code are always xxxx-xxxx-xxxx from what I can tell.
Just a code for regular PSN credit. And I don't think so... In any case, there wouldn't be much point in doing that, cause the Irish PSN doesn't work with my UK account. What would be great is if I could use my Irish PSN credit and use it in the UK store, but there's no way of doing that from what I can see... They probably do this cause of currency conversion
EDIT: My brain must be completely malfunctioning today, because I just counted 12 digits as 9... I think it's time for me to take a break
so no Spy Hunter for me today it seems.
It's pretty damn funny it says out for out for delivery in the morning but then they put it on hold.
That Sony for you.
they either overhype and overexpose their shit till the point people get sick of the game before the actual release(examples Uncharted 3,All Stars)or just hide it completely so people forget about it.
Again, Sony is messed up in the head, just look at how they release small games next to the biggest AAA.

Lol.
No PSN ID I've read in this thread at least.
Was it ever up for debate? All PSN purchases are locked the their region of origin, and that naturally includes online passes. Why would a UK game come with a code for the US Store?
That thread is just confirming that you can't use a US online pass on a UK account. We knew that anyway. You want to use an EU pass on an EU account.
A region is not country specific, it is determined by which branch of SCE oversees it.
How do you pronounce that?
He is not talking about UK-> US, but UK->Ireland which should be the same region (EU).
hmmm
HmmMMmmMm
HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
Dammit I guess I'll wait a day or two before I decide if I want to open this or not. Too damn indecisive! Why you gotta make it so hard to purchase your stuff, Sony? Complete opposite of the (relatively) open nature of PS3.
Well I didn't know that online passes were also region locked. Sorry guys, only got my Vita like two weeks ago, and didn't know that you were only allowed one account per system. My bad

Yep, you can't cross regions for downloaded content. That's the case on the PS3 as well.
You can always change the account by formatting the system. You just can't share digital content.
Now you're turning down secret admirers? Cold.
