I don't mean to blow all of your minds here, but Hot Shots Golf: World Invitational is pretty great. Favorite Vita game so far (I don't have many though, so take that as you will)

Edit: Is MotorStorm RC worth $5? I'm a bit confused looking at the store, looks like its loaded with micro transactions?

All the microtransactions are just cosmetic apart from a few track packs IIRC. It's worth the money if you enjoy games like Micro Machines.

Motorstorm is my most played game on Vita, its a fantastic RC game with tons of content. And yeah, there are 250 cars ingame, but you can buy like 40 or so other ones. Just skins though, they dont really matter.

On top of what spats said. The micro transactions are really just for different car skins and a couple unique cars. They also added in packs to unlock all the unlockables right away (races/car skins). Some of the DLC cars are not unlockable in the main game. There are plenty to unlock without paying money.

The base game is worth $5, i downloaded the base when it was free and it's probably my most played vita game currently. I'm not sure how good of a deal it is to buy the base with the 2 DLC tracks (Pro-AM and Festival) that give you more races. Even without the dlc the base game is a good deal since they include a variety of tracks based off of the previous motorstorm games.

I bought hot shots around christmas myself. I played the original hot shots golf back on Ps1, series is still one of my favorite ones. I just kept missing opportunities to buy it on sale.
 
Man, all this Pokemon X & Y talk is making me crave a fullblown Digimon Vita game

Is such a thing in the works that I am unaware of

Also hi I'm a longtime lurker and bought a Vita because of GAF, sup Vitabros. Thanks for all the Mutant Blobs Attack recommendations too, wouldn't have even known it existed if not for this thread but I ended up getting every trophy I enjoyed it so much

I also got all the trophies for Mutant Blobs, it was one of my first Vita games and I did quite enjoy it but I felt it was lacking something, something I could not quite put my finger on. It may have been that I felt it was a little too short or something about the level design just felt a little off; it has been a little while since I've played it now though.

Definitely not saying it's a bad game because it certainly wasn't, it was just lacking a little something.
 
I've got a tech question (one that I won't be able to test for a while anyways). I know you can make a laptop become a wireless router if you have a LAN connection, so I'm wondering if you can do the same, but using a WiFi connection. I'm 99% certain you can't as the card would be acting as both a router, and a receiver at the same time but I just want to be sure. I ask this because my Vita's always had a hard time connecting to WiFi in my room as the router's on the other side of the house. My laptop has no issues connecting to the same router so if there was a way for me to connect my Vita online via the laptop's connection I'd be gold.

Funny you should mention that, as this month is the launch month for Digimon Adventure RPG for PSP. The Japanese will get to play that on Vita thanks to a PSN release. : / That game's made by Prope, Yuji Naka's (Sonic the Hedgehog) studio. There was an earlier PSP Digimon title developed by Tri-Crescendo (Fragile Dreams) called Digimon World Re:Digitize. It was a re-imagining of the first Digimon World title on PS1. It came out this past summer.

Neither have an English release announced. :(
 
So, new rookie here guys. My first post couldn't be anywhere but this topic. Really happy to be here.

My Vita games: Golden Abyss, Gravity Rush, Disgaea 3, Escape Plan, Mutant Blobs, Blazblue, SF x Tekken, VLR, P4G, LBP, Stranger's Wrath, DJMAX, PSABR, Rayman Origins, HGS 6, Sumioni, Sine Mora, Ragnarok Odyssey, AC3 Liberation, Dokuro, NLKS, Sun Flowers, VT4, Sound Shapes, Pure Chess, Lumines, a few psp games, a few minis and a few psone classics. Yeah, crazy stuff. Have a great backlog to play this month.

And wanna get frustrated at the stupid controls being like ice in dirt at high-speed on SPEED laps.

Silly Takao, no1currs about Digimon.
 
My account finally got activated and my first post had to be in here.
I've had my Vita since launch and it's worth every penny.

Currently addicted to PS All Stars, but I'm looking to find someone soon to plat VT4 and then start tackling the backlog.

You've tried the Soul Sacrifice demo?
 
Man Dynasty Warriors is fun but there are an exhausting amount of gimmicks in that game, and that's with me turning the motion stuff off. The forced touch duels in every single battle are the worst by far. It would be much more fun and difficult to manually fight them.

Probably going to trade this in when I'm done trophy whoring it and just stick to the upcoming DW Empires game on PS3.
 
Hello newbies, a small percentage of you will survive long enough to post comments about Sony's next portable (if they make one), post sensibly and be that small percentage.

Oh and have fun on VitaGAF
 
I got as far away from him as I could which would cause him to start throwing projectiles. When he is in the middle of an animation I'd warp behind him, give him an uppercut, and repeat.

I still can't do it ... :( I get a rare win, but never two (though I got real close once or twice). I am just not good enough yet at pulling off the warp, and perhaps I need to defend more. Usually its the zhunts that get me, or I teleport in a reflex when he's throwing a spear. I do get the impression I might get further if I master the push forward move, or the projectile attacks, but I am not pulling those off reliably yet.
 
Wow,lots of new people for VitaGAF. If anyone wants an addition to their friends list, my PSN is Omlagus. Although being a Vitadad I'm not on a whole lot, but I'd be good for an easy leaderboard score to beat if nothing else. Lol

Just say you're from GAF on the message.
 
Almost finished with Sound Shapes' campaign. Vitagaf is best gaf for convincing me into buying it.

I feel the best album is deadmou5's one (still have to start the last one though, Cities, featuring Beck, woo!) especially since it has been the most challenging so far, gameplay-wise.

I was never into editors but this one, I really want to get better at it. Right now I made only very small, simple levels but I think I'm starting to get the hang of it. Any of you vitabros ever published something? I'd really love to play your levels.

Saving the best for last. Smart decision.
 
don't forget to post your PSN names NewbieGaf! and welcome! gaf in general is a fun amazing place and this thread is incredibly addicting, knowledgeable, and friendly


Damn, want a Vita so bad. I feel like I waited this long that I should wait for some kind of deal on one though.


get on craigslist or ebay. people put up some great bundles.
 
Hi VitaGAF!

4 year GAF lurker-turned-member here. I'm old enough to have used to Nintendo Power maps to get through parts of Final Fantasy on NES, and my crowning Vita achievement so far is plat'ing Sound Shapes (though I ocasionally have nightmarish flashbacks to one of the Deadmau5 death mode levels).
 
How is the online for EDF? Is it hard to get games and/or are there connection problems? The p2p on a lot of games makes it impossible for me to connect but some seem better at it than others.


btw my psn name is vlazlo. add me for leaderboards etc.

Welcome old school gamer.
 
Currently trying to buy psp games as I've never owned one. What do you guys reccommend?


So far I got FF:Tactics, Knights in the Knightmare, Yggdra Union, Brain Challenge, Crush and Hexyz Force
 
Aww, I just found a used (1 week) copy of LittleBigPlanet for $20, as well as Resistance: Burning Skies all new for $20 as well. I'm really considering now.

Do Resistance have online multiplayer?
 
Man Crisis Core and BBS FM are awesome on my Vita! I will be so sad when they come out with 2.03 and I lose internet access, or backup access...

If there was a way for me to keep my trophies while in flight mode, I wouldn't update in a heartbeat... alas

Resitance has online multi.

CoDBLOPSD has better multi, but Resistance has a good SP campaign. I beat Resitance, traded it in...rebought it and am keeping it. Also achieved a platinum, which was easy enough.

Well, I have these games and I really like them: Tactics Ogre, Trails in the Sky, Valkyria Chronicles 2, Persona 3 Portable, Z.H.P., Corpse Party, Hot Shots Tennis.
 
Yes there is multiplayer.

It's not very good

It's barebones as hell.

But does it at least have people playing Deathmatch? I don't need much else if it has Deathmatch or Team Deathmatch.
