Vita PSN Game & Service Thread | March 2013 | Carving an Independent niche

I'm having what you might call a problem.

Back in the day, when I bought my PSPGo, there was an action through which I could get 10 PSP Games, digitally, with my purchase. Assassins Creed: Bloodlines was one of them. Tried it, found the controls to make the game unplayable, never looked back at it again.

But now, with the vita, there's a second mappable stick and more. So I thought, lets try Assassin's Creed again...
...but the Store doesn't want me to.

When searching on the Vita's store it say's I have to buy it for 9,99.
Downloadlist, scrolling like a maniac. Finally found it, "can't download this on Vita"
Allright, that can happen. Let's try the PS3 store then! Searching; 9,99. Back to the scrolling then. Found it; can't hit the download button:

WTF
So, uh, help? :P
On the PS3 try Account Management -> Transaction Management -> Download List

Did that, didn't work.
Called Customer Support this morning, they had to contact they're office in London. They still haven't called back though. :P
 
vita with a 4gb stick sucks. I have to keep dropping and adding games I want to play on the system. Right now I got:

Super Crate Box
Plants vs Zombies
Guilty Gear Accent Core
Final Fantasy VIII
Wild Arms
Megaman Maverick Hunter X
Persona 4 Golden(disc)

This will probably be my lineup for a while, until GG accent core plus R or Soul Sacrifice comes out. I wish I has a 32gb stick :(

Why wont Sony release bigger sticks? And why did they have to use their own proprietary bullshit for the vita? I know its to get more money but still!

The only other thing I can think of is to launch a game that has the old PS Store embedded in it like Mass Effect 3 or Burnout Paradise and try to use the download list from there. For some reason that seems to solve download list issues for some.

Is it possible it's on a different account?
Oh also, while I'm here, DO NOT buy Prince of Persia: Rival Swords even on sale. Awful game and I don't want others to have to experience it. I bought it at full price months back. Hate to be a Toto, but it's terrible.

EDIT: Sorry I got PoP: Revelations, not Rival Swords. Weirdly though, revelations isn't on sale. Either way I can't speak for Rival Swords, but don't get revelations.

It has a pretty steep learning curve, but that game is sooo much fun. What songs did you play? Be sure to check in on the Technika Tune OT ; http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=509998

I've been a bit guilty of not posting there as much as I could have but the more the merrier. :3

Lupin, some jungle beat one, and one with mechinical cars and gears and stuff. I seriously only played it for 8 minutes and walked back to work :P. Loved what I played!

On easy btw. Its not hard at all on that difficulty.
 
Hey Kassatsu, how come when you interviewed with them for ps blog, you didn't tell them that their cover of PSM was a failure and the lack of updates since launch on here, the lack of coverage on here, and the fact that if you scroll over "games" you don't see psm option here is a complete joke?

They promised trophies and psn integration a long time ago, where is it? Where are the non game apps? Is that thing still in beta? Real question

I promoted my site as a place for psm news but it was cut from the final edit that went on the blog.

Answer: not in beta but you will have to ask devs why they are only making games. The last app released was a 2ch reader for Japan only.

nope this is what has been happening with me...

would have bought dynasty warriors, strangers wrath, dokuro, knytt, rayman origins, unit 13, and some others....but since i couldnt put them on my memory card i opt'd that by the time i did have enough room to add that backlog to it there would be another sale or free.
 
You know, it dawned on me as I was playing Persona 4 finally that if it weren't for the omission of Crisis Core, Kingdom Hearts BbS, Valkyrie Profile: Lenneth, Star Ocean 2, and Brave Story on the PSN Store, the Vita would be a dream RPG device.

Sigh. Square-Enix. Why must you hate us so?

Uncharted is free, but I wont download it because it would take up too much space. Also the reason why I don't play blazblue anymore. With that game being 3.6gb, I can only add a game like super crate box or Final Fantasy Tactics and that's it.

The funny thing is each one of those titles would push 100K sold, easy in a 2-3 month period. I guess Square doesn't like money.

It kills me too because I can't imagine the process of packaging a PSP game up as the Store-capable ISO is hard. It must be some kind of licensing issue.

CC is licensing issues with music. KH is likely a hangup with Disney.

The rest though? Yup, SE dun care.

that is not a SE game.

and it was on PSN but got removed because SCEJ/Xseed didn't bother to renew the license.
 
Vita game related query here guys. Regarding MLB 13 the show.

I'm a noob to the show. A quick question if I may.

You can select beginner mode which apparently is a dynamic setting, this setting takes away aids as you progress.

After my first game a pop up announced changes to my settings and would I like to save them and use them as default, which I did.

I assume when I play again those settings will load and I will get a further option to save over them, then further aids are removed ? Reason I'm asking is that it didn't explain what aids or aids it removed for me.

One other question, I also made a manual change in the settings, umpire calls to variable. Now because I made a manual change have Iost the dynamic save option?

Anyone know?

Thanks Vita muffins.

considering ff7 ps1 sold like crazy on psn, I can't believe SE couldn't just resolve the damn issue and sell CC on psn, unless whoever hold the music license is asking unreasonable amount of money for it.
 
Anyone have tips for a noob to Ninja Gaiden, I am getting butt wooped all the time. I am really good at these kind of games but man Ninja Gaiden...

This is going to sound blunt, but... use block and dodge. Also, it really does help to memorize the combos, most games I don't care to even bother.
 
Block a lot,Izuna drop everyone.

Thanks!

Yeah I have been doing so but those ranged mage like guys are annoying as all hell since apparently I can't block there ranged attack. Just gotta dodge more I suppose.

I have to say the game is decent but it feels...off on the vita. I don't know what it is but there's just something weird with the game, like it feels a little sluggish. Maybe its just me.
 
I like this thread. Coming in here is like taking a nice warm shower after reading through that spite filled media create thread. Refreshing

Oh and as much as a flawed game it might be, Patchwork Heroes is such an awesome title. Art style and concept are great. Wonder if they would ever consider making a sequel. I will buy it for sure
 
I'm now a Lumines convert. Damn the game is proper crack. Played for like 4 hours straight and it felt like an hour. And now I keep seeing blocks in my head. lol

And this is exactly why I am not buying DJMax right now. I have a super addictive personality. Tthe same exact thing happened with me in Lumines, and would certainly happen with DJMax.

The first time I entered the February thread last month, I felt like I had arrived home for the first time after being away for a decade. So refreshing. I had been looking for a proper Vita community. Last months Vita thread prompted me to make a GAF account when previously, I had just come here to lurkmoar.
 
guys, i cant find silent hill 1 on the vita store

can i play sh1 on my vita?

Not sure if you are in North America, but I think you have to copy it from PS3.

I have it on my Vita, but from what I remember that's how it had to be done. I don't recall downloading directly from the Vita store anyway.
 
How do you save game in MGS2? After missions? Really can't be bothered to complete the mission but if I have to in order to save I guess I will.
 
I am in the same position with SFxT and Marvel. I barely can get myself to play games that aren't SFxT and DOA doesn't hype me up that much.

What's your PSN? I can't imagine I'd play much SFxT today but I wouldn't mind playing you some games, especially if we get a good connection.

I'm A+, but I'm sure I could teach you some things
