Why the low ratings for Motorstorm complete? I just bought it and an downloading stuff now. Is there a way to download all the included cars quicker?


when they first put out the Motorstorm RC Complete it was missing a whole bunch of the DLC that was suppose to be included so it got bombarded with terrible ratings. However, they have resolved the issue since then.
 
Is anyone around here still playing EDF? I need help on 57/58/60 as Pale Wing, I don't have the time to grind her Stamina up (currently 3600) to a level where I can beat Inferno by myself.
 
Bought this week Persona 4 Golden (34€) and Virtua Tennis 4 (10€)
Persona 4 is always an awesome game! And Virtua Tennis has an INSANE image quality o_o

Only a question: there's a quick guide on how to manage the various hits? There's not a good tutorial in the game that explains you how to make effects on shots.
 
Good news everyone!

Sony sent the $10 Voucher Code to my email address so I'm able to redeem it without a PS3.

Thanks Obama!

if by effects you mean the special shots its O iirc when your guage filled. the load screens tell you basically how and when todo regular shots and the live screen manual should have the rest.

Hum ok because i've seen that the CPU can do some shots in where the ball curves and I was wondering if I can do the same.

square+lanalog for direction

all shots will improve with the training and you will be able to tweak a bit more to your playstyle when you unlock them.

I wish i could find VT for cheap in US
 
I talk about PlayStation Mobile DRM:

BEZlYq6CEAEkryw.jpg+large.jpg


I did some Googling recently, and was startled to find that no one was talking about PlayStation Mobile's DRM. You would think that since the service launched in October, someone somewhere would've been inconvenienced by Sony's protection. Then again, looking at the sales figures for some of these games, maybe I am the only one ... A few weeks back I found myself in a situation where WiFi was no longer something I could use on my Vita. I hadn't realized that without regular WiFi access my PlayStation Mobile purchases would become useless. I suppose it makes sense, when booting up a PlayStation Mobile game you're usually required to connect via WiFi to Sony's servers to authenticate the game. It appears Sony gives users about a 30 day grace period between needing a WiFi check up. What happens if you don't boot up a PSM game with WiFi running after 30 days? You get the message above, and are unable to play any PlayStation Mobile game at all. Thankfully, connecting to WiFi while playing one game will set your entire PSM catalog back to a playable status. You don't need to go through each individual title and boot them while connected to the internet.

Do we still not have a release date for Guacamelee? Feels like that has been around forever

April most likely

I ask in the previous thread but Project Discovery became vaporware? It was annouce at the gaming heaven and I think was slated for 2012. It’s a collaboration between Sony Computer Entertainment and Kadokawa Games. Animation studios Robot and Ufotable are involved, somehow.

It's a development suite to make visual novels. Vita's got visual novels. There's even visual novels on PSM, lol.
 
Two more weeks of sales, so maybe later on.

Or not - Marvel (the only other Capcom game) is one of only a few that hasn't gone on sale since launch.
I'll wait for next week, if its not in the sales then I will buy it, I need something for 10 hours flight. XD
 
But apparently it's even worse for games with in app purchases. Which I guess is just that Hot Shots thing from Sony. From what Jasper said, it needs to connect every time you play.

I wasn't giving that thing any of my money, lol. Already owned Hot Shots Shorties anyways.
 
So has anyone played Smart As? I just bought it using the $10 promotion and I'm waiting for it to download. Does it use any Near functions?
 
Any news/guesses on next week's sales? If Dynasty Warriors and Disgaea 3 drop down to <$20, I'll probably double dip on both.
 
Is SFxTK good ? I want to buy it if it's good, but maybe there's a sale or something, it's 40$.

I love it, I'm not a hardcore 2D fighter fan so take my opinion with a pillar of salt but I find the game really fun.

Also MGS:HD on Aus PS+ this month, stoked, I had this in my Amazon cart and was about to pull the trigger on it soon.

PlayStation Plus Content
Entering PS Plus in March:
7th March: Mass Effect 3
7th March: Dead or Alive 5
7th March: Joe Danger 2
14th March: Metal Gear Solid HD Collection (PS VIta)
21st March: Puddle (PS Vita)

Leaving PS Plus in March:
7th March: Sleeping Dogs
7th March: Vanquish
7th March: LIMBO
14th March: Wipeout 2048 (PS Vita)
21st March: Lumines Electronic Symphony (PS Vita)

Never heard of Puddle. Great timing with DOA5 if there's any benefit to having the PS3 version and the Vita version.
 
Smart As's input accuracy (or lack of) is completely ruining it for me. I still haven't been able to get the system to register "D" or "P", and its total hell for it to recognize the difference between 4 and 9. The second I have to write either of them, I may as well quit. So infuriating...I would be blazing through spelling/math games otherwise. Not happy :/

Edit: turns you need to draw D with a downward stroke, then a stroke coming back to complete the letter. Retarded. L needs to be drawn with a downward stroke too.

Now I'm having trouble with B! It keeps thinking its O...ugh!

Oh thanks a lot! It's my first Tennis game and I'm a real noob xD
 
So I bought Persona 4 and am loving it.

Just started downloading Ragnarok Odyssey.

I hope Vita starts to sell well, hopefully it has a long lifespan with a nice library of games like PSP
 
Thinking of getting a Vita just for P4G, but if I don't have to I'd rather not. GAF, has there been any mumblings from the developer alluding to a possible HD console port of the game/3DS port?

That's how I write D and L. You do it wrong. :P

Heh that sadly is another reason I'm hesitant about getting it XP.

...BUT FOR the #4 why not just write it like an umm upside down 'h'? then again it might confuse the 4 and 9 still...
 
.

I think like 50% of ppl got a vita because of P4G including me lol it needs more sales tho tbh

EDIT: congrats on the plat

Thanks Kyon, took a while thanks to all the social links.

Yeah, but... I know. That wasn't my question =P Unless that "no" was seriously informed? Haha.

No as in there hasn't been any talk about possible ports. :) Seeing as no Persona game was ported to the DS/3DS the chances P4G is getting ported are slim. Maybe later to PS3/PS4 as part of upscaled Vita ports?

Haha, thanks for clarifying. Yeah, the latter is what I would have expected most. I just wish devs wouldn't be so coy about stuff like this! Would be good to know in advance so I know what to buy, although I guess the Vita needs all the help it can get in the interim if there was another version of P4G in the works.

A port of a port? Seems unlikely, and even more unlikely to come to less powerful hardware, as the whole reason for choosing the Vita for the handheld version was to avoid having to make compromises with the experience like they did for Persona 3 Portable.
