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

do you guys know how often content manager assistant on your computer is supposed to check for new files? I added a few images a couple days ago to the watched folder that I wanted to use as wallpapers on the vita but they're not showing up on the list. I'm running it on a mac if that matters.
 
Like I said, it really is finely tuned for pick-up-and-play. There are save spots like every 5 minutes. That, and Vita save states, make it probably the only JRPG I'll ever be able to play for the foreseeable future. Take it in slowly and have fun!

You can't save while you're in a dungeon though, but you can bring along items that allow you to "exit" the dungeon, go save, and then return back to the beginning of the same dungeon level that you exited from. Also, with the Vita save states like mentioned above, its really not a big deal. When I'm playing P4G on Vita the game stays active on my handheld all week so "saving" all the time isn't a big deal.
 
commenter: "The poll says there’s a Borderlands sale and a Guacamelee launch week discount, but I don’t see any of that in the post "

mod: "You’re right! For the sake of this post, I’ve removed them from the voting options, but yes, Guacamelle! will feature a Plus discount. We have more news on this and other discounted content that we’ll get up in a separate post; which will have great benefits for Plus members, in addition to being applicable for the wider PlayStation audience as well. Stay tuned!"

Back from vacation and on the Vita front I am received by a new thread, a guacamelee discount and best of all my new digital copy of Persona the Golden.


And I hope everyone is doing great also...
 
I can help with this if anyone needs anything? I can't make threads and I don't really have any experience with photoshop or making custom images. The game deserves a bright and flashy OT.

Please message me if you want me to help put this together in some way (dig up videos, images, stories, box quotes etc). I get off work later this afternoon and will get back to you.

I particularly like the quote they used from Stephen Totilo in the most recent, launch trailer:

"Drinkbox Studios have dramatically improved their ability to name a video game"
-Stephen Totilo, Kotaku

I've never done an OT... but there's nothing like trying to do one for a highly anticipated game less than 12 hours away!

I hope i can count on you ( and anyone else who wants to help) because i'm only going to have 2 hrs tonight to do this.

if you have any suggestions/links/media/quotes etc feel free to PM me them or any tips you have on OTs.

uhm... i guess. now starts the official title suggesting...

|OT| Mexicovania seems to be leading right now..

.open the flood gates of ideas people.
 
i started playing sonic racing transformed yesterday. i have the wii u version, so for those interested, i wrote up a comparison.

i originally bought the wii u one thinking it would be the best of both worlds since i would be able to play on the couch with friends but also be able to play on the gamepad (with better graphics than vita) in bed. it was also supposed to be the best console version. well, i had zero willpower and bought the vita version when it was on sale anyway. now i've actually had a chance to really compare both versions. i've played the wii u version with friends on the couch, on the gamepad in bed, and now the vita version.

the wii u multiplayer experience was just fucking awful. i don't know if there is a way to alter the control scheme, but my friends and i struggled because the multiplayer forced us to use wiimote tilt controls for steering. it was bad, and not just because it used tilt controls. it just seemed to be really poorly implemented.

the wii u gamepad experience was ok. it obviously controls a million times better than the tilting wiimotes. the screen quality of the gamepad is so awful though. even though the wii u version has better graphics than the vita version, the vita version's clarity (IQ) as well as the actual screen itself made it look so much better than on the gamepad. i could have complained about the gamepad being more comfortable, but i was using the pdp grip for the vita and it was fine. also, somehow the vita analog sticks were better for flight than the gamepad's. it's like the gamepad analog stick sensitivity is way too high.

anyway, i really recommend the vita version. there is slowdown in certain segments of certain levels, but i experienced similar slowdowns in the wii u version. sooo, if you were fine with the console experience, it won't bother you here. for gamepad-only play, the vita version definitely beats out the wii u version. the wii u version looks better on the tv, but that's not really where i wanted to be playing the game (so that may be more specific to my needs than to others). i also truly felt the analog control for the flight segments were easier on the vita version.

i haven't dipped into the online multiplayer portion for either game (if it exists??), so if that's a big deal to others i would recommend reading more about it. it's not a huge interest of mine.
 
Got a vita coming in tomorrow, looking forward to it. I bought the call of duty bundle and also got persona 4 & wipeout 2048

perfect timing - do you have PS+? are you aware of guacamelee and soul sacrifice? both releasing this month. would love to hear your impressions whe nyou have some time with it.

No I dont have PS+ but Im going to get it when I get the vita. Do you get 1 month free if its a new PSN account? Haven't heard much about those games Im afraid
 
No free month of ps plus for new accounts. Still a great value for vita. I still have not bought any retail vita games thx to plus. Soul sacrifice will be the first purchase.

I don't believe your bundle gets a free month, but anyone here will tell you PS+ is a requirement for vita for all the deals and free games.

I actually think Wipeout is currently free...Gravity Rush, Uncharted:Golden Abyss, and Disgaea 3 are also free i think.

Guacamelee is a beautifully stylized metroidvania game releasing tomorrow. Done by DrinkBox studios who also made Mutant Blobs Attack ( a critically acclaimed game)

Soul Sacrifice is a highly anticipated game, that was released in Japan a few weeks ago. It's a "boss hunting" style game with some great depth and multiplayer that has reviewed really well so far.

welcome my man.
 
Found my Dynasty Warrior Next Card! Now I can finally free the world from the the yellow turbans!

Hope we get another one this year!
 
Space cleared on my card for Guacamelee. I am so bloody excited for this. It seems to be kicking off a wonderful run of games coming for the Vita.

$71 is still a lot of money for a memory card. It's a decent deal, but don't get it if you don't need it. I hope you enjoy P4G! :)

Yeah, pretty much.

It's like Nintendo first party titles. When most of the gamecube games hit like $20 or less, SSBB and NSMBWii and all that? Still $50.

If you want the memory, you're going to pay for it, simple as that.
So take whatever deal you can get.
 
So what was that SEGA 3/28 announcement?
