Vita PSN Game & Service Thread 2

Sorry I just can't commit now that it's not async. Cause sometimes I got time, other times I don't and suddenly something pops up one day and then another etc.

I'll hop online and check out the options tonight. If this is how most people want it to be, to hell with how I envisioned it initially. I just threw that out there because I am ignorant in terms of what we *can* do. As long as we can do it and the majority wants it, why not?

Edit for Top of Page Recommendation (my first one, better make it count)

I have heard tremendous things.
 
Playing Wipeout right now; you guys are making my times look so shabby! Probably will play SF X Tekken a bit later; anyone who has the game willing to play? PSN is oldyella for anyone interested in playing who hasn't added me yet.
 
I'm planning on getting a $50 PSN card later this month; do you guys have any recommendations for games I can buy? PS1,PSP or Vita, it doesn't matter.

Where do i "Sign up" is there a thread or something for this?

Just in here so far. I gotcha though.

Cool. I am going to start keeping a loose list together in my posts. No commitment yet, I just don't want to lose track of names. If we get enough people saying 'what the hell, I'll join in', then we can set something up. Reminder, this is just a casual tournament. Not looking to complete in a single day, maybe not even in a week. Just a chance for us to play some MP and have some fun with it.

I honestly thing people who say it has 3DS graphics have a massive misconception of what the Vita is capable of (and a great exaggeration of what the 3DS can do - we'll see when its neutered release comes around). Sonic Racing, in motion, is probably amongst the best the Vita is going to get. Rendering that much track (and they are massive tracks with crazy amounts of detail and full view distance), and 8 players at native resolution is taxing.

You have a couple people like TimmiT that can find some really nasty screenshots (like Wreck it Ralph's face), but you only ever see that post race.

People have very warped perceptions of things. There were complaints about the visuals on Need for Speed Most Wanted too. But its like, when you're actually playing the game, it's mind blowing how much is going on, on a hand held console!

The Sonic Racing levels turn from straight up go karting, to flight games with the full level visible. You just can't compare that to other games with very restricted views and tightly designed courses around a system's limitations.

I'm keen to see how the 3DS ver of Sonic Racing Transformed turns out as I understand they've had to put it on a different game engine. I wonder if it'll turn into a completely different game as a result.
 
I'm pretty sure I've never said this before but goddamn YouTube is so good on this thing.

Stops me from playing my games though D:
 
Hello then Vitabros! Just moved back into the dorms at college to start my second semester. Was worrying about all the classes I have signed myself up for when I saw my neogaf confirmation message. Night=made. Former lurker reporting for Vitabro duty!

Just finished Gravity Rush (freaking love it), just started Persona 4 Golden (ditto). Can't really add anyone on PSN cause my university's internet hates Vitas and I left my PS3 at home. Still, I look forward to wasting precious study hours here on gaf.

Wish me luck, all.


(PS: Also Have Corpse Party and Lunar: Silver Star Harmony downloaded, but God only knows when I will get to those.)

Book of Shadows comes out in two days, so you better hop to it! >:D
 
Just tried, nope doesn't work in the browser. I'll go look for the app.

EDIT
Seriously SCEE? There's no Youtube app on EU PSN... =/
Really? I didn't know the app wasn't on EU PSN. That's really stupid. I knew Netflix wasn't on there, but Youtube, too? Someone get in touch with SCEE. :|

Welcome.

flonne > etna-sama btw :3 just talking disgaea 1 though
 
Okay guys.

So Ghostlight is selling Persona 2 and 3 for like $80 on the Aus/PAL PSN store. That's a lot of goddamn money. Is there a way for me to get into the US store and get it cheaper?

Also, I'm playing Tomba. Good times

Not without another memory card and a willingness to format your Vita whenever you want to swap. Personally I sold out and am a US Store only guy now, despite being in New Zealand. While there's lots of moaning about the US PlayStation Plus games, the discounts you get with Plus (and the discounts that you get in general) are just too good to give up. It also saves you waiting for the PAL release (e.g. Corpse Party Book of Shadows). No regret.

ARGH

thanks for the help
 
These will be the last as I shouldn't flood the thread with my own photos.

Really stupid question:

The Motorstorm RC trophy list has one for getting less than 17 seconds on the course Wipe Out.
Wiped Out
Beat a time of 17 seconds on the event 'Wipe Out'.

I can't find this track.

I'm probably just overlooking it, but I have no idea where it's even supposed to be. I feel so dumb. :(

Huh -- I have 36/36 medals on the first two festivals, but it seems the guide on ps3t.org lists an additional 4 events that don't even show up in the festival for me (on both)... Wipe Out being one of them.
This is probably why my time is something like 40 minutes for the first two festivals... ugh.

Should these be missing? Do I have to unlock them or something? How the hell do I do that?! :(
