I wish Resistance Retribution would go down in price. Twenty is just a little too much for me. The game is way better than Burning Skies, though, in single player AND online (which is far more embarassing considering that was a PSP game).
 
Running through FFVI for the first time on Vita.

Love me some 2d sprites.

Those load time for random battles.

When I owned it back in the SNES days, I'd had every character learn every spell. I couldn't do that on the PSX version with the load times, I'd be 85 years old and insane.

RIP.

Speaking of. Ever think in a few years down the line they will port XIII on vita? Not that anyone would want that crap but lol
 
Do you guys just carry your Vita around in your pocket as well? I should probably buy a case...

The black Hori case is great for the Vita. I got the one from the P4 Golden edition that I use. It's like the old Logitech PSP case only nowhere near as much protection, this Hori one is super thin. Which is nice to put in your pocket not so nice for dropping.

The Club Nintendo string pouch is also amazing for holding a Vita.
 
Who carries a Vita in their pocket? That's nuts.

Edit-
Hmmm, I guess that is not so strange being that it is hand held device.

I actually carry my Vita in my pocket. Not too bad. Barely fits, but it's fine. The only problem is sometimes the sticks get stuck in my pocket, and I'm actually afraid one of these days I'm going to break my sticks by having it in my pocket.

I would use a carrying case, but then I really doubt it'd fit in my pockets.
 
Might have to give up trophy whoring in Dynasty Warriors thanks to this dumb conquest mode. Who's bright idea was it to implement levels on each territory that raise on their own? You can't attack a territory that's equal to or higher than yours that's next to it. Each turn an area of yours that's on a border will raise but you can't pick which one. So unless you're lucky you end up in my case where me and the 1 force remaining are playing tag with a few territories far away from where I need to be to take out the leader. At this rate it'll go on forever.

Need FF6 remake so bad... any platform will do :(

localization/glitches kill it on SNES; audio quality kills it on GBA; slow-ness kills it on PS1/PSP/etc.

arrrrrrrrg
 
Yea wtf at these load times. Is Chrono Trigger this bad as well? At least that game doesn't have random battles though.

Yes. Because this is what the load times were on the original release. PSX releases are straight .iso dumps to eboot.pbp format. WYSIWYG and all that.

Square badly ported it in 1997. Sorry, dude.
 
OMG!!!!! Ranked 36 out of over 250 000 players. holy shit balls. Jetpack Joyride is becoming an unhealthy obsession. This is the first "casual" game i've ever put more than one hour into it and holy shit, it's all i've played on my Vita for the last 3 weeks!! Must.........be.......first....


Add me!!!
 
I'll check it out. Hopefully it has a demo. If it doesn't then I guess I'll just buy it at BestBuy and hope for the best.

I don't own much for my Vita. Only own:

Call Of Duty Declassified
Uncharted Golden Abyss
Gravity Rush

I'm thinking of Need For Speed Most Wanted and maybe Assassin's Creed Liberation. Anything else I should get GAF?

NFS MW is amazing on Vita. Full open world and great graphics

^ Same for me also subbed to it.

I'm really enjoying EDF, steep price but lots of fun, music really suits the gameplay (feels pretty epic at times) and loving the way you can replay missions easily with different difficulties etc - is there a reload button at all?
 
yeah update for 2013, so we can link it in here... how often ahve you been updating it though? quarterly seems fine?

could jsut make a new thread?

I asked a mod to change it. I update the thread as soon as there's a game announced.

My friend. I LOVE that thread and re-visit it every month or so. It's just not the kind of thread that is going to get a lot of replies, but it's fantastic for referencing.

Awesome, true, as long as some VitaBros reading it, that what keep me updating it, lol.
 
No one in the media create seemed to acknowledge my short story, so I'll share it with you guys ^_^

The basics, relate to desperate wanting of immediate announcements, once fan-doom is proclaimed. I used the WiiU, as my example, but the message of silly fanboyness can float to any platform:

Its morning time in Japan. As the sun begins to rise, something (more than a mouse) is stirring from within the confines of Nintendo Co. limited. It seems Satoru Iwata has not been happy with the numbers of the Ultra Wii U2, which went on sale 16 minutes ago. To combat these low sales, Iwata has assembled a crack team of 5 Reggie Fils Ame clones, one Shigeru Miyamoto and a miniaturized, real life Nintendog.

As the 17th minute begins, murmurs of "Nintendoomed" are beginning their crescendo across the Internet, particularly within NeoGaf. You see, the sales are lower than expected (for a system that has been on sale for 17 minutes), especially from the perspective of many arm chair analysts.

Things feel so bad - so dirty, that the Nintendo elite core (a fun, colorful and loving bunch), are now beginning to soil themselves by the 18th minute. Their pleas for "panic mode", "release a trailer?!?" are not in vain. Iwata can hear them, for he has a magic pickle.

20 minutes have passed. Iwata and his sleuth team - clad in all black ninja attire, board their MarioPartyKart. The team, now desperate to prevent more fan soilings, are speeding at warp 5 through the many streets of Kyoto. They arrive by the 21st minute at an undisclosed developer compound. There is silence in the air, as everything inside is very top secret.

23 minutes have now passed, since the UltraWiiU2 has been on sale. Iwata can reassure all fans, that he and Nintendo has heard their cries, through use of his magic pickle. With great pride, Iwata takes the stage of a Nintendo Direct, proudly announcing an unprecedented partnership:

He will release a new game in 15 seconds, which was developed 12 seconds ago (in 12 seconds). Using the power of HD, this game will revolutionize the console world. You will use the new Gamepad to build Popsicle stick houses, while preventing fudge rain from destroying your creations. Think Jenga meets Minecraft, but developed in 12 seconds.

The world cheers! All is well! Everyone is pleased! (especially Hideki Kamiya, who can use his own brain)

The end.

It's so funny when people are hyperbolic about a system which launched 1-2 months ago. The trajectory can be changed. The Internet has a way of warping human perception of time and occurrence. It's not that bad. Enjoy the system, as stuff will unveil in due time.

Buy NGS+, anticipation rising for NGS2+ (which will apparently have improved graphics from NGS+)
 
So, I wanted a white one, but I saw that Target is selling the LEGO Batman bundle for $199 so I just ordered it with express delivery (total came out to just $221) and will be getting it tomorrow. Excited. Soul Sacrifice is a big reason why I wanted to get one, I just really hope that Sony does the Vita some justice at E3 even though it's probably going to be completely overshadowed by the PS4 showing.
