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

Phil Fish was tweeting about how much he dislikes 3DS and how he prefers Vita (I know this because geams journalism considers this news) so.... Fez Vita confirmed?

I wouldn't be surprised if we got Fez at all. And it seems Terraria may get an announcement next week which would be pretty awesome!
 
A few more from last weekend:

Wait did they turn this into some sort of sidescrolling adventure game?

I'm okay with that.

Yeah it looks like a Pixel Junk game at the moment.

I've got the original game on my phone now anyway, works ok on the Note II (nice big screen like the Vita has). Still looking forward to trying out this though, anything by the same guys.
 
a friend just reblogged a photo of for Game Informer trolling Vita(top 10 list..was empty list with #3 for the setting)..I mean this "Vita has no games" bullshit in a real magazine in 2013? really? that what people pay money for?

I've been of the opinion that GI is a trash rag, but that's just me.

And ech, at Fish, not sure if want support.
 
So how is Totori MoeVita-GAF? Should I keep my plans to get it or make other arrangements? I was going to get Totori and EDF but I can only get one now, I have to us the other money to sustain another hobby/habit of mine.

As a new-comer to the series, I have to say that it is polished and very charming. The visuals look great due to the IQ (native res and AA!) and the music fits the theme of the game well. I can't speak on the quality of the English dub, as I switched to Japanese immediately. :b
The gameplay revolves around interactions with the characters and crafting items more then combat, but everything that is there works well. Whether or not the game will start getting repetitive remains to be seen, as I just finished the introductory sequence.

As for EDF, it's basically a portable B-movie, in both production values and premise. Very cheesy, campy, and fun. Especially with friends.

The games in this series do a great job never over staying their welcome.

Sweet, thanks that helps alot. I've played EDF on consoles so I know what to expect there, thats why I have a hard time swallowing anything more then $20 for it.

I am going into the Atelier series fresh and new though. I've wanted to play pretty much all of them on ps3 but backlog/etc could never pull the plug. Like most games though Vita gives me a bigger chance to play games I otherwise wouldn't get around to. The positive impressions and quality i'm hearing back is excellent to hear. Can't wait till friday.
 
I need a game to bring to jury duty on tuesday. Thinking NGS2+ but not sure.

Too demanding. If you aren't picked, you have to be there for at least 6 hrs. I'd honestly play some Persona or download a couple of quick games like Stardust or Dokuro. Maybe take a fighting game since they'll probably have wifi. Hope you don't get picked. Worst 7 days I ever spent.

I want to get picked to get out of my job. :)
 
I've been gaming for nearly 3 decades and I just bought my first Sony console...

Kind of ironic that I jump in on the least popular Sony gaming system. I haven't had a chance to play anything yet because I've just started a 2 hour update... 😠

I have P4G on order, a $50 PSN card, and 3 month of PS+. I got the 16GB card from BB for $30.

I can't wait to start playing something!!!

Can I buy stuff on Sony's site while I wait?
 
I'd love to be able to play other games as there are quite a few I feel like playing...but nothing can take me away from PSASBR at the moment, loving how OP Zeus feels in medium-close combat. Isaac is hella fun as well.

@jedimike - welcome! And yes pretty sure you can start downloading if it is available in your region. Take care setting up your PSN if you haven't already as it's unlikely you'll be able to change it.

Oh wow I just found at that going idle regens health!

Also I wish they would make it known why someone gets a ban. I am not seeing anything wrong in his post history, unless I didn't go back far enough.

I wish the same....and yeah heheh...I was going to mention that regen thing.... :P

Yes, google sen store.

Mostly play Xbox... but I bought the Vita for something different. Some of my favorite games are XBLA games. I love the Trials games. Most of my gaming needs to be quick in, quick out but I'm not afraid of diving in to something like Uncharted. And I do like FPS's.

Welcome! I assume you like RPGs, then you should buy Persona 3 and play it FIRST... it's a great game, better story than P4G in my opinion, but overall P4G it's a better game. Besides, this week it has a discount...

And considering you have PS Plus, you'll enjoy great games: Uncharted, Gravity Rush and Disgaea 3 for starting. You'll have for months... believe me.

There's a poor mans trials on the vita, Urban Trial Freestyle.

If you don't mind asian pop/techno, DJMAX technika tune is one of the best music rhythm games out there.

Oddworld Stranger's Wrath has been getting a lot of praise in this thread.


I'm probably not one to recommend games on vita since I bought it for my JRPG fix :p.

If you like Trials, then give Urban Trial Freestyle a chance (10 bucks)... and DON'T BUY the Call of Duty Vita version... it sucks. You should wait for Killzone. And if you want, try the demo of Unit 13 for now...

Thanks... I'll give it a shot. I've been lurking the thread for quite some time as I mulled over my decision so I have a pretty good understanding of which games are worthy. It's the logistics that I have to find out... things like where to redeem my point cards (couldn't find on site)

You should like Urban Trials Freestyle. It's not as good as Trials, but it's good. There aren't any good FPS's yet but Killzone's coming up, and right now Unit 13 is a great TPS with a quick in quick out mission structure. There's all kinds of great games for you to play honestly. Give the web store a glance and check them out.

It's great that you got PS+. There's a bunch of awesome games you'll already have!

Log into the SEN website and click on Redeem Prepaid Card.
 
I'm almost at the end of New Game Plus in P4G and getting close to the platinum. I've already
defeated Margaret
, but I'm going to have to grind quite a bit for the Hardcore Risette Fan and Thorough Bookkeeper trophies. Hopefully I don't have to go into another NG+ just for Rise. :/
 
been on Rocketbirds.
It's pretty fun (made by a studio from Singapore <3)

somehow feel something is missing.. but can't quite put a word to it.
but the native res.. is really <3
 
Not really Vita related but my friend let me borrow Persona 4 Arena. :D

I probably won't get to it til Monday since I work all day tomorrow but I'm excited to see what happens since I finished P4G.
 
P4 Arena.. is a fighting game right?

I'll be really happy if publishers made all the HD Collections Cross-Buy..
games like
Ico/SotC
DMC
Ratchet&Clank
Jax&Daxter
maybe not Killzone and GoW..

So would you recommend the game cause it looks decent I am just not sure, especially from the trailer. The amount of shots needed to put those penguins down and the quick reaction time of some of the enemies had me questioning if it was right for me.

Yep. But there's a lot of story involved.

Can we get a Crash HD collection? Please? I want to play Warped again. :(
 
So hey, WRC 3: FIA World Rally Championship! I'm enjoying it a fair bit. I mean, I haven't played a rally game since like... V-Rally and Top Gear Rally, so for all I know it might actually be terrible, but whatever! It's fun just dicking around and rolling the car to navigate a simple corner. Also I think I got a trophy for trying to kill the people in the crowd.

The cartridge itself is absolutely incredible though. So much detail!

I would say it's worth the $6 if you have PS+
I really like how the "view" changes as you tilt your Vita around, creating a kind of pseudo 3D effect.

I'm not feeling the gameplay much, there's alot of moving back and forth. but the story is pretty interesting (it's not some mega omg brain psyching story.. but it gets you interested somewhat)
