Nah man that's like the only reason I ever took an interest in the Vita. Sadly it's not going to pan out except for a couple of games from Sony every year and I doubt they'll put much more into it than that. I'm actually glad I got rid of my AC:Liberation game because I just happened to notice the AC vita bundle was trading in for $195 on amazon when I only paid $180 for it, and I'm pretty sure I would have caved if I still had the game. The lack of support, which to be honest I did see coming last year, still hurts.

YES
What!? So bubbles settings now stay based on the memory card?
"Kawano suggests there could be more F2P games in future – with Social Games, being an influence in this switch of focus."
Allows Japan's biggest F2P game go to Nintendo platforms even though SCE publishes that company's games internationally.

Agreed, Gravity Rush is one of those games that has a lot of potential and could really benefit from a sequel. Imagine how much better GR could have been if it had tighter controls (gravity slide) and ran at native resolution...
Do you mean Puzzles & Dragons Z? Typical Sony.

Sony should load up a stack of F2P games on bundles that have a memory card (or a future Vita with some storage built in)
Then advertise it like a huge value bonus.
Savvy people would realise all they're saving you is the hassle of downloading, but to casuals, seeing that buying a system gets them a bunch of shit "free" could be a big motivator.
Like the PSO2 bundle, why is it limited? Chuck that shit on every bundle!
Speaking of social games: Where's that Toro app? RABBLE RABBLE RABBLE. I want it NAO. :|
Anyway, got past Amature rank in MNG/EG/HSG6 now. Hoorah, Pro ranked tournaments unlocked. But I gotta play some matches to get points for some clubs and the characters to unlock. :/ Ugh. Grinding. D:
You aren't: It's what I bought the PSP2 for: A continuation of the PSP library. Unfortunately it seems Sony doesn't care about that and wants to pump no1currs indies out. :/
Oh well, at least I have DOA5 on the go, so it isn't a total wash.

I'm pretty sure it will come to the Vita too. They already made a f2p title on the Vita.
I know that feel, bro. Put over 300 hours into MHP3rd, yet I still want it on my Vita.
May end up just buying an extra card to dedicate to my Japanese account. With PSO2 for free and things like Soul Sacrifice on the scene, it doesn't seem like a bad investment...

Indeed. Once PSO2 comes out, that's all I'll need for Vita to be worth what I paid for it.
It's like Monster Hunter, the damage is done on the first strike.
tweet @yosp. give them some ideas.

Gravity Rush was my GotY
You're not alone. I too want this despite some people just being vehemently opposed to the idea. Some of the best experiences I've had in gaming in recent memory (Super Mario 3DLand, Stranger's WrathVita) where on a handheld. Having them on a TV wouldn't have any difference.
So yeah, crazy excited for Killzone but am scarred that it's pretty much the beginning of the end and then the Vita turns into the Indie/PSN darling

I guess people can only get hyped up for what's actually coming, and there's surely a lot of indie stuff coming.
Console or handheld style doesn't make much difference to me if the game's good. Nintendo has for a long time strongly advocated that portable games must be tailored to being played portable. The reality now though is that portables truly are capable of delivering console style games, and suspend features mean almost anything can be "bite sized".
Given the spread of console style games on portables, i've been having less enjoyment with portable focused entries (like Super Mario 3D Land) than those games deserve, because i find myself wanting more when i know there's no reason why they couldn't have made an expansive console style game.
I personally think these days it's more accurate to say that console owners don't want to play portable style games on their consoles (puzzlers, short games) rather than the opposite. I wouldn't want to play Pushmo on the TV but i'd have no problem playing console Batman Arkham Origins on Vita.
I guess from the developer/publisher point of view, it's a lot quicker to make a port, but they risk scathing for being too downgraded and people are less likely to buy 2 versions of the same game if they have both machines. A dedicated handheld game takes longer to make, but they'd have more people buying both versions, and they get praised for the extra effort.
In a perfect world, if they were both good games i'd want the port AND the dedicated handheld game on Vita!

I'm pretty sure MS has console exclusivity locked up for the Trials games.
Looks like Hotline Miami just entered QA

Just received SFxT (US Version) from Play-Asia. Nice price.
Tried to redeem the DLC Code on my EU account, didn't work. Had to redeem it on my US Account. Will I be able to use it with my EU account in one way or another ? ( I know that paid content doesn't work on other accounts, but free content does ... what of the redeemed DLC ? ).

Ooo new dragons crown trailer
Speaking of Dragon's Crown, am I the only one who doesn't like the comically huge knockers?
Trust me, I'm hyped. I'm playing through it on the PC to get ready. Do we have confirmation of Cross-Stuff for Hotline Miami?
I see a disturbing lack of a Virtua Tennis bubble on there, my friend. I think you should fix that
Im convinced those things will never come.Will that referral voucher come in email? Im locked out my psn email...

Oh... I'll give it a go right away.
That's for the "spend $50 in march" stuff.
Good, soldier! But seriously, that game has LOADS of content and is a lot of fun. I'm no a tennis fan at all and I've racked up 96 hrs in the game. Just going through the campaign over and over and still unlocking things is entertaining.
Spreadsheet?
Just trying to document all global Vita releases. It's a work in progress.
Well, all NA and other region exclusives.
Why are you documenting them?

Boooo
Oh I just like to. And I plan to collect them all eventually so it makes a quick checklist.

Same here. Haven't fully checked, but while playing PSM it's true.
Nah, I've had it like that from day one. Pretty sure it's a setting you can switch on/off.
At least you spent $50 last month. I didn't buy anything. I usually can spend that much easy but March was pretty dry on games.Boooo
That's a good idea. I remember I wanted to collect all the Vita games in the US when it was going through the "no games" phase...that idea quickly vanished after I figured out how much i'd be spending.Oh I just like to. And I plan to collect them all eventually so it makes a quick checklist.
You're a good man! VT4 is one of my favorite Vita games. Anybody know if we'll get a follow-up to VT4? I tried playing the Android game but it just wasn't fun.
Hmmm, I haven't noticed that. I'll have to check. Is that with the new update? Or did it happen before you updated?
Hopefully we'll get a PlayStation Plus discount or at least another "spend X and get Y back"
deal.
I'm on the latest update. I don't recall it signing in automatically before then.

Yeah, I've noticed that too. You don't have to go to your friends list or sign on PSN, yet you get progress update constantly with who's online now. Not sure wether you're always connected online or just for a short period of time in specific moments?
Not directly. You can quote the text or upload them as a screenshot.
Yeah, it's pretty cool, although there always was an option in the Settings for it to update your PSN status automatically. That never really seemed to do the proper job though. However I'm still not getting messages turning up very quickly? Group messaging still seems bent on only updating every 15 minutes.
Still, if it is part of the update, it's an appreciated improvement.

Will the Vita ever be able to play PS2 classics? Is it something Sony has acknowledged?
Yoshida said it's not likely.

Why bother with the classic when you can buy HD remakes with cut content DLC?

What HD collections have cut content as dlc? Are there even any with dlc?

Well that's disappointing. I'd probably consider a Vita purchase at some point if they made it possible. Playing Fatal Frame on it at night would be pretty cool.
Oh well.
