- Buy BlazBlue if you enjoy awful, stiff fighting with terrible characters, music, and presentation.
How can anyone even BE this wrong. Awesome characters that are all very different to play, the gameplay is some of the most fast-paced and.. well, NON-STIFF kind you can find in the fighting genre. Music I can kind of give you, don't like the kind of stuff that's in BlazBlue & Guilty Gear games.
 
Oh man. The team I am working on got disbanded a few minutes ago. I might be able keep a job... somewhere for my company (even after finishing the translation project I am working on atm), but man. This sucks. Not actually laid off... yet. Hopefully they'll use me for something else. Needed to tell someone >_>

Guess doing an awesome job at this translation could be the difference between a new job here or not.

Man. Good luck vitabro :-(
 
OMG OMG OMG!!!!

I just ordered

PS Vita CoD Bundle
Virtue's Last Reward (free!)
Uncharted: Golden Abyss

For Vita. I was gonna get GR but the site had it with 3-5 weeks shipping and using a third party with $4 shipping was too much for my amazon gift cards, so I got Uncharted instead. Can still play GR via PS+ (I just rather get physical games for any retail games I get via PS+, hence Uncharted even that its technically wasting money. I'm kinda sad like that lol.)

But I can't wait! Was able to get the Vita and VLR with 1 day shipping barely since VLR had free 1 day shipping. Uncharted will come later.

Can't wait to finally get this awesome system and play some games! Been wanting one since they were announced but never really got a chance due to it being so much money and me getting other things. But I finally got to a point were I had enough money and didn't want anything else so I jumped on it.

Its estimated delivery is TOMORROW. I never ordered 1day shipping but I have to wonder if such a thing is even possible. I hope it is because I wants it.

Also feels weird ordering a system online. Never done that before but with tax and no VLR at GS it was a easy decision.
 
Blazeblue is terrible, sorry dude. It's not Guilty Gear or P4U.

And P4U isn't that good since half the characters are broken in their own ways and one that should be fundamentally different is broken because he can't stand up to the rest of the cast.

That doesn't mean it's a bad game, but it's not worth the time investment.

wish you the best of luck... haven't a clue what you do, or what you are translating, but more things need to be translated so I don't like seeing translators out of work ^^;
 
The director of Knytt Underground just posted a blog about it:

http://blog.eu.playstation.com/2012/12/18/introducing-knytt-underground-your-next-ps-plus-title/

I'm still not remotely sold on it. I think this will go on the no-thank-you pile with Big Sky and Chronovolt.

And P4U isn't that good since half the characters are broken in their own ways and one that should be fundamentally different is broken because he can't stand up to the rest of the cast.

It also has a crappy, overrated and redundant story mode.

Wow, sorry to hear that man. One of the reasons why I decided to focus on IT and not Game Design, although my degree is in Game Design. Layoffs in the industry really scare me :\
 
Big Sky doesn't even deserve to be in the same sentence as Chronovolt. It's so much better than that. I really love it, actually. Knytt looks great too

To each their own, I guess. I really don't like it, but I know you're not interested in MK.

I suppose that's the glory of PS Plus's mostly varied lineup. :P

Congrats and welcome to the bro-hood. You already have quite a few decent stuff to play between what you got and PS+.

Yeah, Guilty Gear Midnight Carnival was so good on PSP - it was the first game I ever imported for the system.

Never got around to playing BlazBlue until they slashed the price on PSN, and man, what a disappointment. It's just not fun to play, at all.

Such a shame, too. It has like 30974 modes, but it's all wasted on terrible fighting mechanics.

It's $20. Good luck, btw.

EDIT: And... a price drop, apparently?
 
;)

Though you have to admit the Vita port doesn't look that hot. Since the Wii U version got patched, I think I'll be going for that (when the price drops).

True. In comparison to console versions but probably not compared to the 3DS version. I like Mario Kart but I also appreciate all the moving background geometry that's in the Sonic Racing title. It's probably the best kart racer on the Vita and it probably deserves a sale if the Vita is used 75% of the time in comparison to your 3DSXL.

Well, OF COURSE UGA has a lock opening minigame.

It's probably the best kart racer on the Vita and it probably deserves a sale if the Vita is used 75% of the time in comparison to your 3DSXL.

Haha yeah I'm sure it's lightyears above the 3DS version. But that's why I love the Wii U! It's a handheld when you need it to be, and a console otherwise.
 
Sorry about your job, Toma.
If I get you in Secret Santa, Santa might be extra nice. ;)

Haha, how nice of you :)
Whining wont do me any good, but my gf is already asleep so I needed to tell someone else, haha.

Best of luck, Vitabro--sending you positive thoughts!
 
My Vita's screen is now cracked and scratched to death. I was getting out of the bus when this teenager pushed me out and my Vita flew out of my bag and onto the icy cement. It still sorta works but the screen is hard to use/see and the back touch sensor is fucked.

Guess I'm picking up a new Vita then. Are there any good bundles/sales out right now (I'm from Canada)? Which looks better in person, the black or white model? Oh and how do I transfer saves/games onto the new Vita? Can I just toss in my 32gb card and log onto my PSN or something?

Ouchies!

No idea on sales I'm afraid, I'm UK VitaGaf.

You should just be able to put your 32GB into your new Vita and log in with your account. You'll have to sort out any settings like WiFi passwords and the like though.
 
Just noticed your post Toma :C, I hope you make it out okay.

Woah woah woah, where is this teenager now and why isn't he/she paying for it?

Because he is cemented to the floor of a lake in the suburbs of Yaceka-Village.
 
oh god... *braces self*

edit: lord have mercy, I just had to do an artefact cleaning minigame. That makes the charcoal rubbing seem entertaining by comparison.
Am I the only one that actually liked that stuff? Pretty interesting use of the Vita features, I thought. But it was also the first thing I played back in February, so maybe the whole newness of it made me more forgiving.
 
Best of luck, Toma! Hope you get to keep your job, buddy.

Do we know what time PS Plus EU games go up? I seem to think Big Sky went up at like 10 or 11am.

I've only just finished playing U:GA and I enjoyed all of the mini games and touch screen stuff. Different strokes for different folks I guess.

Nope I liked most of the rubbing stuff and some of the other touch stuff. Not a fan of the swiping during fights or vine cutting.

Did you know I absolutely adored the touch screen stuff in this game. It felt so immersive when rubbing charcoal, and when cleaning helmets and stuff, it was like I was holding it my hands. Isn't that amazing? And when dragging the touch screen down on difficult jumps, it was as if I was pulling myself up! When balancing on logs I liked to get up and balance on one leg since it felt so surreal. And I love jigsaw puzzles! Dragging and twirling bits of paper is so awesome. Sometimes when playing games and it gets too dark, I always wished I could shine a light in at the screen to make it light up. It works! Maybe it's magic. And the boss fights are the best I've ever played in any game ever. It was awesome feeling like I was actually there in the game controlling my character in a way that's never been possible. So much excitement everywhere, playing a game like this just felt so natural. I would absolutely love it if they did the same in the sequel. Just love it.

I don't think I've ever seen anybody remotely that into it. Some of us like it, but we don't think it's incredible or anything.
