Can you sign up for PS+ from the PC or must I do it through the PS3/Vita?
Realized my PS3 is out of date and the Wifi card on it seems slow as hell getting the latest update.

You could buy a code card (and activate via SonyEntertainmentNetwork.com), but you might as well do it through your Vita/PS3 since that's the only way to download PS+ content.

I support their cause.

So does Kaz Hirai:

"Kazuo Hirai TOKYO, JAPAN

We need PSVita sales to get higher or else I might lose my job. Grand Theft Auto games were big sellers on PSP, so this could help."
 
Finished AC some days ago, started Uncharted. Uncharted feels like 60FPS compared to AC haha.

Kinda sad that EU doesn't have either Persona or DJ Max. Gotta import one of those two..
 
Just realized that you cannot buy the 12 month subscription for PS+ from Amazon unless you live in the US :(

Would it be possible if someone purchased it for me and I paypal the amount? Could be happy to send payment first.

Thanks

Change your address to somewhere in the US and it will work perfectly. I am thousands of miles away from US and buy them every month.

Do you use a US PSN account? Those cards are region sensitive.
 
Thanks tahsutify changing the address worked :D. Need to wait for my PS Vita to recharge before I can enter the code.

Also, Takao I switched to the US store as PS+ in Australia is like $80 which is ridiculous

DJ Max will never be available in EU, Persona 4 will be. Might as well import Technika and wait for Golden's European release in early 2013.
 
Anyone compile a list of 2013 releases with tentative dates?

We dont have any tentative dates, we dont even have a too long list of announced titles for 2013.
 
ALL of them?

The gyro aiming? The climbing trace a path? The zooming for sniper and camera?

Yes.

Even trying to select continue game from the start screen requires the use of the touch screen in the most awkward way. Swipe across and then touch. Why cant I use the D-Pad?
 
I predict Little Deviants and Unit 13. One for the kiddies this Christmas, one for the rest of us.

That would make sense :)

They've just launched a bundle with Unit 13 and a + sub, putting Unit 13 on there seems unlikely.

Pretty sure we'll get some smaller, non retail games for december. We still have UC and GR as retail games and the EU is getting Knytt and Big Sky as + goodies.

I bet we'll se at least one of those two in the US as well.

Yes.

Oh god this. I am actually rather fine with the touchscreen stuff ingame, but this is hugely annoying.
 
Erm, has anyone heard that this game is coming to the Vita? I'd never heard of it but apparentl it's on Android and iOS too.

I was idly perusing the PS website and under "coming soon" they had this

JAZZ : Trump's Journey

http://uk.playstation.com/psn/games/detail/item547363/JAZZ-Trumps-Journey/

"My name is Trump, I'm a jazzman and this is my story."

Experience the birth of jazz in New Orleans in a moving story that uses stylish visuals.
Overcome a variety of obstacles including boss characters, moving platforms and spikes
Use your trumpet to stop time and progress through the game.

Apparently coming out this month.

Gameplay

At first glance, it looks like a generic jump and run gameplaywise with a nice art style.
 
I nearly keeled over this morning when I saw an actual, honest-to-goodness Christmas Vita advert at a local bus stop. I guess Sony Ireland rustled up some ad money for it somewhere.

It was basically headed with 'Peace on Earth?' at the top with a picture of Vita and some games underneath, and then 'Man, just get me a Playstation Vita'.

(In before jokes about both peace on earth and vita being equally unlikely to succeed...)

Japan is shaping up. This doesn't include Western games with later releases (like Silent Hill (Feb) and Sony Smash Bros (Jan)), educational releases or games with a vague 2013 release date (like God Eater 2 and Toukiden). I'm sure I missed some stuff as well, haven't been following as closely lately.

I was just... making a joke about something along those lines to my gf a few days ago, and even realized myself how a bit of bad taste that is >_>

What else did I miss? .. Maybe some Sonic All-stars vita footage?

Nope.
 
^^^

Bleh ... shit's like 9 days away from coming out. Guess I'll have to take Toto's mindset on it and just accept a shitty port now rather than be disappointed :<
 
I've just got to Ace the last world in LBP Vita. Done the others!

Some are incredibly frustrating with the little fiddly bits right at the end that are easy to cock up.

Yep, those ads are everywhere here in Dublin. Vita has also started to be really heavily advertised on YouTube, as well
 
Just realized Fight for Fortune is out the day after tomorrow, yay!
 
Feeling Wipeout a lot more on handheld than console. PSASBR is surprisingly fun and the crossplay really helps keep the community a lot more active than it otherwise would be. Even though I still have some great games untouched, my first game purchase will likely be Unit 13. Had my eye on that game since it released and I can't wait to try the first true shooter experience on a handheld.
 
That just makes me sad, I hope we see those titles eventually.

Vita is in a very unenviable position. The device is selling poorly because the games that would make people buy it aren't there, and the games that would make people buy the device aren't being made because the device is selling poorly. The worst thing about it is that the platform doesn't deserve the hand it has been dealt. Yes, the memory cards are grossly over priced, the memory card fumbling for different accounts is completely daft, the near reliance to own a PS3 to get the full usage of the device is insulting, and the fact that Sony allowed something like Call of Duty: Black Ops Declassified to ship at $49.99 is a farce. But with all those faults it still remains the most capable handheld gaming hardware that has ever been made.
