Why the hell Valkyrie Profile Lenneth is not on the store? I was so ready to buy it :(

Because Square Enix ;)

They are worst offender when it comes to games not being released on psn

Crisis Core, Star Ocean 1&2, VP Lenneth PS1/PSP, Kingdom Hearts PSP

edit: Top of page not so random recomendation

Buy Motorstorm RC, Virtue Last Reward and God Eater Burst ;)
 
Bought MGS 3 HD ready for a 4 hour train journey later this week :)

Haven't played it since I had my ps2 so should be fun going back to it.

Does it still include the weird dream game?
 
Persona is a dating sim? I was wondering why a friend sent me a screenshot of one of the characters asking another to go out with them, on my twitter. Now I really have no interest in this game =/

I've been hooked on NFS Most Wanted, but it's a racing game, so the appeal lasts for only so long. Maybe I'll rebuy Unit 13, I did enjoy it a lot from what I played.
Crap, did I scare you away with the dating sim comparison? Lol.

The game is not focused on dating girls, but interacting and socializing with people is the main theme of yhe game, dating girls are just optional outcome from the girls, you can choose to become just friend with them if you choose.
 
Ordered Vococal stand from Amazon.

Are there any inexpensive screen only covers to slap on this thing? I don't want the big dumb whole console face bib that I've seen. Screen protection only is fine.
 
Yeah, a solid game is definitely in the cards, but (and I dislike repeating myself) considering how much better NGS2+ seems to look in comparison to NGS+, I'm doubting it. Unless it doesn't run at native res, which that was one of the things I loved about NGS+ - native res (98% of the time at least) and a solid framerate.
But maybe I'm more lenient toward handheld titles, since the hardware is weaker.

I just got my wife to ask (in Japanese) about 60FPS in NGS2+ via Twitter ... I haven't had much luck getting responses from other attempts at contacting devs via Twitter, but here's hoping for something.
 
Im planning to back-up a game on my PS3 later, what will happen to the save file? Will it transfer over or will I have the choice to back-up game + saves?
 
Picked up Lunar: Silver Star Harmony last night off PSN, 4 hours later I had to force myself to stop playing for fear of waking in a zombie like state this morning.

What a fantastic charming RPG it is, can't wait to get back to Lunar!

It's a straight copy of both. The only way of separating them (outside of the workaround that was posted earlier) is using Plus.

oh I see, I guess I don't mind that at all. Im trying to survive off my 4GB by installing only the game Im currently playing then make a back-up of it when Im finished playing it.
 
How is God Eater Burst's Single player campaign? I read the game resembles MH.

Very good - almost jrpg lite. Bots take place of missing players so you never have to fight alone against monster designed to be killed by full party.

And AI is quite good - they really help you and can put some dmg on Aragami.
 
Thanks for the Lumines advice on the last page.

Managed to make it further after a few runs then I had what I can only describe as a sensory overload sometime during into the 3rd track. Before I knew it, I had blocks stacked to the ceiling.

I could record myself playing Lumines and see if you can pick up technique from my tactics :P
 
why the f. can´t FFVII d-pad be remapped to left stick when in the PSP PS1 games emulator can be done?. Going in diagonal is a chore!.

By the way, FFVII + MGS + SOTN is gaming magic!.

its similar in the sense that you fight big monsters (sometimes more than one at once) and you dont lvl up you just get better gear (from monster parts and parts found in the levels.

However the feel of the gameplay is very different.
- Its much faster paced.
- The combat is much more close to something like phantasy star games (online and portable)
- 3 AI buddies to help you
- each lvl is one map not small segmets. Some maps are really small and some are resonably biggish.
- Story

I didnt like monster hunter but I loved God Eater. Put something like 75 hours into it.

There's a site somewhere that breaks down the mechanics of the Lumines games that's worth a read. Trying to find it at the moment...

EDIT: Here it is. :)
 
I picked up Lumines like every other Vita owner has at some point. Never played it before and I was wondering, what are you supposed to do with those diagonally aligned blocks? They guaranteed fuck me up every time

Best I've done on Voyage so far is the beginning of the second track :(

I actually like how you use the back touch screen to access the L2 R2 buttons in MGS.
Works great IMO. Never had a problem with it.
 
I know I'm an idiot for needing to ask this but how do I go about swapping memory cards for different region accounts? Planning on getting the Soul Sacrifice demo.

remove the us/eu memory
turn on the vita
reset everything in the options
turn off
insert the jap memory
turn on the vita and initialize it.

In the process you will lose all your settings like wallpapers to use, bubbles' positions, browser's favorites etc.

It's from before the firmware update, but it doesn't matter when you have two memory cards. When you want to switch accounts using one memory card, you need to backup everything on your PC/PS3 before you switch accounts.

Edit: already beaten:

One addition, during the reset the vita will ask you if you want to deactivate the account on this machine. You HAVE TO deactivate the currently active account!
 
2 things make switching regions a pain: losing all your background and bubble settings, and that unskippable intro movie. If you didn't have to deal with those, switching isn't actually that that bad.

Yes, this is right. Who knows how good it will turn out, but it looks fucking awesome.
