Vita PSN Game & Service Thread | April 2013 | Sacrifice your Independent Soul

Those stands look nice guys. Sound improvements make this a viable purchase.
The choice to mount the speakers under your thumbs baffle me on Vita.

Sony need to patent optical eye and mind control and sell these stands like hot cakes.
Steven Hawkin can join in the fun too.

Edit buy what ever the guy above me tells you to.
 
That looks so sexy, IMO, I love my Persona 4 skin but this is way smoother.

it's Cosmos Carbon Skin ($8)

and yeah I agree it look nice (kinda remind me of Xperia ZL back side)

FILE NOT FOUND!

lol. yeah seriously what is going on with that link.
 
Finally got a chance to build my Vita library as I got a few psn cards, so far I picked up

Strangers Wrath
Zen Pinball 2 (along with a few tables, and imported the originals)
Jet Set Radio
Big Sky Infinity
Sound Shapes +Dlc
Retro City Rampage
Machinarium
Silent Hill Book of memories
Sine Mora
LBP
And persona 4

All this combined with my ps1 and psp tranfers should give me plenty to play till more of those great looking indies, dragons crown, and some others come around. Also going to pick up guacamelee when it drops.

I really do wish Sony would announce larger memory cards though as it seems likely ill fill this card soon, and id love to get a 64g card....those prices though.
 
According to some game shop blog, the guy has talked with Sony ppl and heard that Soul Sacrifice is already reached 200K (shipped) and 160K (physical copies, double pack counted as 1 copy).
They said the shipment number already reached the goal but how far it could go beyond that is interesting.
 
Picked up Golden Abyss again just to see if I could complete it on Crushing. NOPE. What a headache. I just want to slam my Vita against the ground whenever I play that game. -___-

Really? I found golden abyss to be the easiest uncharted on crushing by far. Mainly due to the gyro aiming and how easy it was for me to pull off headshots.

QTE boss battles did suck tho
 
Well okay, I'll go for it. Is there a continuous story line between the Persona games or are the numbers something à la Final Fantasy/Dragon Quest?
3 and 4 are totally stand alone stories, there are not even references to the first 2 titles (although P4 has a very little reference to P3).

Persona 1 and 2 are loosely related story-wise afaik, and Persona 2 is actually divided into 2 different games. Persona 2 Innocent Sin came out first and it's the one revamped for the PSP, while Persona 2 Eternal Punishment's remake per PSP never got out of Japan. You can play it in its original PSOne form though if you're interested, it came out recently as a PSOne classic on PSN. The translation is old and it's different from the one used in Innocent Sin for PSP but with a guide you'll manage to understand which character is which.

It's a mess :P

I'm doing this right now! I'm at chapter 26 so far. My first Uncharted game and second shooter after the Half-Life games (well, I play some TF2). Still, I'm not finding it too difficult but I'm only now entering the endgame chapters... hmm. Wes-44, Desert-5 and Dragon Sniper are game-breaking.
 
Just curious as this hasnt been asked in awhile, but what is everyone's current vita game/s they are playing right now? Im interested to see what people are trying to get through before guacamelee and soul sacf come out...

I repicked up hotshots and am going thru crowns and trophies... Looking to chip away or beat ff9.

P4g and EDF :)

NGS2+
DOA5+
Totori+
PSASBR
EDF
Ragnarok Odyssey
and soon, Senran Kagura.
 
Playing Mutant Blobs and Hot Shots Golf right now. Planning on picking Gravity Rush up to finish again soon and probs Disgaea 3.

Fifa 13 and WRC 3.

After these will probably stop gaming until all my exams are over. Going to be jealous when all you guys are playing Soul Sacrifice but it's only a month and a half more until I'm able to play it too!
 
general concensus is that most people here are getting guacamelee day 1? i'm iffy on soul sacrifice only because i've never played a "boss hunting" game.

edit: velocity ultra is due out in may right? I recall them saying they are aiming tosubmit in april which would put it out on PSN in may....
 
Does anyone know if Tomb Raider 4 makes use of the Vita's other analog stick? It'd be nice if I could use it to adjust the camera.

Plan on grabbing that and Time Pilot when I get home.
 
Whew thats a lot. I couldnt handle that many games at once :). Are u nearing the end in some?

I've beaten the majority and Platinumed PSASBR (I just play it for fun).
I'm just going for trophies and higher difficulties now (except for DOA5+ and Totori+).

I play a different game each time. Helps keep things fresh.

Too many games to count, not enough time to play all of them at once:

1. MGSHD Collection (focusing on MGS2 VR missions, already completed story modes of both games on the PS2, so they are not a priority)
2. Everybody's Golf ( I somehow felt like returning to the game to grind for characters/clubs/balls again etc. Got reminded how awesome and deep the game is)
3. Ridge Racer (really done with the game, just grinding slowly now for the 4 remaining trophies)
4. Dead or Alive 5 plus (mostly messing around in modes that are quick to go through and training, haven't had time for story mode. Game is awesome)

Other games currently playing with but haven't touched in a while:

5. Sly Cooper (only did the demo section and one job quickly, really liked what I played)
6. Ragnorak Odyssey (starting on missions from chapter 2)
7. PSASBR (haven't touched this game in AGES, really miss it but I'm getting distracted with games here).

And that's while I haven't started on those games yet:

8. Touch My Katamari
9. A-men
10. Knytt Underground
11. Rayman Origins

I'm afraid this will affect future purchases with the amount of games I'm busy with while not having enough time for them (college). Games like Guacamelee and Velocity Ultra will have to wait, and possibly Soul Sacrifice as well.
 
Whoo-hoo, only two more hours left of grinding in Disgaea 3 for the 10 hours straight played trophy, hopefully. >_>
 
Doing daily Smart As... brain training and the occasional street smart challenges as well as semi-regular visits to Treasures of Montezuma Blitz.

I should start Stranger's Wrath or Rocketbirds soon, but have been trying to finish up the Let's Play March playthrough of Wild Arms.

I will pick up Guacamelee on Tuesday which will probably bump to the front of the queue and then Soul Sacrifice will consume everything at the end of the month.
 
I'm playing that Need for Speed game, Disgaea 3 or one of the 7 different platformer games I have. I wasn't planning to play Disgaea but I couldn't stop after playing it for a few hours.. have spent ages in item world

btw, how is the LittleBigPlanet Marvel DLC?

Ragnarok Odyssey, Hatsune Miku Project Diva f (fairly close to platinum in this), Persona 4 Golden (close to platinum in this too, but I'm not enough of a Hardcore Risette Fan).
 
there's a trophy for that? pretty awesome.

You can't turn the game off. You can put it in sleep mode or use some items (like trophies, options) but can't shut the game down. It's like the PS3 versions similar trophy but you can't idle as easy here.
 
OMG Gravity Rush is amazing!

SFxT was a silly purchase, worst handheld FG I've ever played. More so than GBA Tekken Tag.

I'd download MonHanPo3 if it were in the UK marketplace. Do they pull demos? I can't see Katamari or Shinobido.

I actually found that the PS3 trophy was easier to get as I played in one long 10+ hour session one day. The Vita one took me several days as I kept putting the system to sleep.

Everybody's Golf and Oddworld: Strangers Wrath at the moment. EG for the tourneys, running SW hard for the platinum.
 
Just wanted to post if your Canadian and are a G-Member with Tsilon.ca they are giving out a 10$ off coupon for SS! Grab it before the hoarders do!
 
I was considering downloading PSO2, but not sure how impenetrable it is.. has anyone else tried it out and if so, is it worth the effort?

If you've got a Vita tied to a JP account and have at least an 8 GB memory card for it, it's a no brainer. I'm well past a thousand hours logged into the game (counts both PC and Vita time, don't have separated stats unfortunately). See the threads for more info:

SFxT is pretty much the console game. o_O

Wish I was a Canadian then. :P
Though I still want it digitally. Hopefully it'll be $36 instead of $40.
 
Wifey loved Gravity Rush. At first she was saying "what's so different from the other PSPs?" and now she's like "oh".

I can't believe I only got this system for NG originally.

I'm currently installing CMA on the PC so I can move stuff around my small 8GB memory card.

So far I'm pretty happy with my purchase even though no games have arrived via the post yet. I might end up buying at least MonHan again for the Vita. I don't want to download PSP/PS1 games again for the Vita when I have them on my 2000 or Go.

My Vita is actually like-new second hand, but I just realised it's from the USA (has an AT&T card stuck in). =)
 
Is it just me or does the 3rd hubworld in Sly 4 has framerate issues? It doesn't even look better than the two before it so I can't really understand it.
Like the story behind the arrival in the 3rd episode.
