Vita PSN Game & Service Thread 2

Way too busy with my translation project atm, anything going on lately? Strangers Wrath guys are up to something secret apparently. Anything else/new media or whatever from the last 1-2 weeks?

Is there any sale going on atm?

Repost for a kind soul to enlighten me :p
 
Yeah both are stupid expensive at $35 anyway...or I could just get Origins for $30. I guess LBP and PSBR (wahtever) have a bigger chance of going on SALE SALE.
If you really want PSBR, check the buy/sell/trade thread. There might be a few copies floating around for 20

Haven't got a chance to play my vita lately. Farcry 3 is taking up most of my time. Yet my brother decided to take over my hot shots time and preceded to destroy all my scores. Damn him
 
Wow, so EDF really doesnt have much hype with Vitabros. Is it the price? PSN only release, usually value priced on consoles should it be $20? Would that be a more excitable price?
 
for a sale best buy has a few games on sale... I can't recall if you are from the us or not so I am not sure if it's relevant but w/e here is a link

What a monster URL, wow.
Thanks :) EU Gaffer, I meant more along the lines of a US PSN New Years sale or something.

It looks absolutely MEH in all ways. I know its a beloved game for many but....the trailers aren't doing it many favors lol

yeah the URL is crazy big lol.
I don't recall if anything interesting was on sale for the last sale update aside from tokyo jungle which is only remote play and not a vita game.
 
Don't care about the GFX, just want a stable framerate (Err well stable in EDF terms) and support for a shitton of bugs on screen!

Oh and a crazy amount of levels & gear.
 
EDF is going to be awesome. If I have to make an hour long video to impress people about it, so be it.

For me the impressive part for me is that its EDF on a portable. I know EDF wasnt pushing big graphics or some exciting gameplay. It was just really fun, mindless sandbox giant bug exploder simulator that was value priced. Pricing it as a full price Vita game is making me hesitate because that was the thing about EDF being value priced. I think thats whats going to make others hesitate and its a shame these companies are being greedy with their pricing. They would move more copies at an impulse price with word of mouth
 
There's fifty new weapons (230 from 171), seven new levels, new enemies, and another player type. So it's definitely expanded.

Still though, if it's mostly the same game as before and they're asking for a price higher than many AAA Vita titles on the PSN service, ehhhhh.

i was trying to sell my code for the past month and had no bites. i finally just redeemed it tonight.

bummer.
hhaha
 
So its a loot hoard mode meets rouge type?

With unfortunate art?

If you never played it. It's like cheap, greasy, delicious Chinese food.

It looks ugly, it sounds cheesy, but it's just constant fun. Buildings blow up with a single rocket, you fight monstrously huge creatures and hordes of ants that swarm the cities as if was a picnic basket, and you fight them with some fucking insane weapons and vehicles, and there's just constant loot picking up. Armor upgrades and weapon drops as far as the eye can see, and the weapons are huge in variety and have some very hilarious balancing (like a plasma shot that hits like a nuclear bomb but moves slower than your player.)

I'll stress that it must be played with a friend, with an album of your choice. But it's a very easy game to get into.
 
Just got FF4 Complete Collection and boy does it look nice. I did not have my brightness turned up all the way either, and when I turned it up my eyes were like "Ahhhhhhhh". Twenty is too expensive but I could not resist, since I had a 10 credit I went ahead with it. Was on sale once for 10 but I had missed it.
 
That would last for about 3 more months tops if we transfer everything..

Let's say 25 GB a year from now and say 5 years more support, plus the 50GB or so we already got from ps1, psp and vita games etc this year + previously = 175GB...gonna need a 256.

Currently a 256 will cost about £300, Sony's price would probably be £750.. but if they do make them eventually..I've no doubt they'll milk the upgrades. Digital will be really steep unless you eventually deal with switching out memory cards which is not only annoying to switch due to the wiping of customisation and stuff but also with their design..they are so tiny and fragile (not that is really Sony's fault hah but still, at least add profiles or something to save stuff.

I dunno. Will probably learn to live with more 32GB cards when they drop in price and look for a nice travel case for them..

Edit: Ok maybe 25GB/year is a but much and you could live without a few of the games (being on the card)..but still..I don't think I want to have to keep waiting to upgrade and then really feel it too.

I'm in the boat where I will probably fill a 64gb really quickly too, it didn't take me long to fill my 32gb card and unfortunately for me I'm going to be all digital for everything until June.

A 256gb card may cost £300 now but remember that the PSP originally came with a 32mb card and sizes were up to around 16-32gbs by the time the Vita released. Memory prices drop super quickly and I have no doubt that we'll keep getting bigger cards under the same pricing structure.


I always wondered this. If Touch My Katamari and Lumines on Vita are full retail games, why do they not have platinum trophies?

With Lumines Q Entertainment literally just forgot to put a Platinum in the game.

Yeah I mean graphics are what they are but if its really better with co op...I sure as hell dont see myself co oping on my vita anytime soon lol
 
really tempted to get "touch my katamari" for $12 on discount but i got a feeling it will be free on PS+ soon.


hmmmmmm

I believe they've said that if a game is on sale, they'll attempt not to place it in the IGC anytime soon (after the Just Cause 2 debacle). That said, I don't see something with as limited appeal as Katamari ever going free, lol, but you never know...
 
Huh? think your thinking of one of the console versions. been playing katamari since launch and only downloaded free requests. never ran into dlc levels.

Unlocking levels requires fan spirits. They are next to impossible to find enough of them in the game, but , surprise, namco is willing to sell them to you.
 
Hmmm, I found this partial list for Tuesday by googling, but not confirmed and seems to be a potentially iffy source (I've never seen GAF turn words to asterisks before...)

Life of Pixel is supposed to be a platformer game that changes graphical (maybe gameplay too?) styles while playing through it (from Atari to newer consoles). That could be cute.

These are all there on Tuesday, as confirmed by the PS Blogcast.

Life of Pixel looks cool from the post above me.

Yeah, platformers live and die due to the content and quality of the level layout though. On my watch list for now but I fear it could be very short.

High-Five!

It's probably happened before too, since it's the only two threads I really bother with on GAF most of the time. ;)

I wonder if that discount is really true for MK Vita -- I was so mad when I thought it would be on sale for the Holiday sale and I sold my physical copy in preparation of buying digital... maybe it'll be even cheaper than the $14.xx the other sale was supposed to put it at? That'd be a nice way to start the new year.

Life of Pixel sounds interesting from your description. We can only hope the price is right and it's solid... the description sort of reminds me of Crush, but I'm guessing it's not quite the same. :)

Excellent! I know it's not Vita related, but I'm curious to try out the GoW Acension MP.
Did they say what kind of discount on MK Vita?
 
Ugh I want to get the superior DS/iOS FFIV game on Vita ;_; I hate 2D FF they didnt age well for me at the slightest

No they didn't say for some reason. Guess we'll have to see.

Can't wait to try out the Sonic All-Stars demo after having played ModNation all day.

I'm also very tempted by MGS: HD Collection, even though i have it for 360, it's my favorite franchise after all.
