I have a $10 off Soul Sacrifice code up for grabs (Future Shop/Canada). PM if you wannit.

 

[zulux21]

I can see people hating it and people loving it even among the fans of Monster Hunter because while it's still one of the Monster Hunting games it's not like Ragnarok Odyssey (as in a bland boring clone of a freaking bland boring series)and is faster and the pacing is better with little grinding so not the same core structure and framework of MonHun.

for me I liked the Japanese demo,the combat was fun and the summoning idea remind me of other game,but oh well still that was just a demo and the full game might have problems.

is there any TV ads for it yet? I'm curious to see if SCEA will market it as a MonHun game (a will be a huge mistake to do so in the west) or just as a dark fantasy game.

on paper the game sounds solid to me, i was never really able to get into MH but SS sounds interesting.

it's a new IP though and I wasn't willing to jump in with out trying it out due to my backlog, plus not all things that sounds great on paper actually turn out to be something I enjoy. My best example is demon's souls. on paper I like pretty much everything about demon's souls, in reality everything rubbed me the wrong way and I hated the game lol.

Negative Nancy calling out Debbie Downer! Love it.

It actually does describe them both perfectly lol.

Takao is just a realist.

Toto is a negative downer

Im going to get an Ys game with the money I get back. 7 or Oath to F. ?

I'm leaning towards 7. I really enjoyed Origins.

 

[dEvAnGeL]

so, has anyone got their $10 dollars back from the expend $50 promotion?

Well I can't login to PSN store so maybe they are pushing the big red rebate button.

 

[Takao]

Yes it was, when Lords of Shadow 2 was announced, it was announced with a Vita port aswell. The 3DS got its own game though with mirror of fate.

Okay so this is driving me crazy.

Whenever I'm using Music Unlimited now with my Vita it will turn off after 10 minutes or so, going into sleep mode. This is a total pain in the ass as I mainly use it while commuting on the bus and dozing off a bit.

It wasn't doing this before it would just keep playing. This didn't happen until the patch updated.

So I have no idea if I messed something up in settings either on the Vita or through the app or if Music Unlimited is just completely useless now.

Has anybody else had this problem recently?

so you have it standby (screen off) and after ten minutes the music just stops? I never had the problem but i never had it playing 10 minutes without going and manually changing the song, i guess i will try to replicate it and see what happens.

A guy on kijiji wants to sell me a vita for 150$ I am wondering if it turns out to be stolen (he said it was a gift and doesn't have a receipt) can I get in any sort of trouble?

Yep thats exactly the problem I have. If I just turn the screen off and don't touch any of the buttons while listening it will just shut itself off until I turn my Vita back on.

I've never had this issue before until the new patch. I don't know why its doing this but it sucks.

 

[LuchaShaq]

Yeah,NLKS is good..shame that the end for the IP tho(this was the 2nd chance for the IP and Vita owners failed it).

I may have figured it out. I tried twice and it went out at 6 minutes and at 14 minutes. I noticed each time i had a notification. The last one i looked at the time the notification came and it said 1 minute (so it just happened). So i think that might be the problem. So when it happens again look to see if you just got a notification. Have no clue if its due to the update or not but i think that is what is causing it.

 

[corrosivefrost]

I think SS will end up being a very disappointing game compared to most peoples expectations.

Don't think it could fall short of my expectations unless it's an absolute piece of shit.
Based off the gameplay videos, impressions from the demo (JPN) that people have put up and everything else? I somehow thing I'm not capable of really comprehending the awesome until I play it.

You forgot Framerate Issues.

I'm logged in on PS3. No email/message yet. Don't expect it until 3am.

Depends on where you live, but if you are in the US, you could be charged with receiving stolen goods. I personally know of nobody who has ever been charged with that, but whenever I see somebody ask this question, my answer is always given.

Sounds like EDF2017 and Atelier Totori Plus, except those games actually made it to number 1 in the monthly NA PSN charts.

Yep it turned off again so i turn the vita on and no notification, turn it off and then back on immediately and sure enough it then was there. When ever you get a notification it turns off.

So I grinded a bit for the Hardcore Risette Fan trophy in Persona 4 Golden today, but my grinding session ended up taking much longer than expected. Here is the result of my efforts (potential late December spoilers): http://i5.minus.com/iY5lPhu7nfkjE.jpg

I still don't have the trophy.

Releasing it in September was stupid,a niche handheld like Vita mean you have hardcore owners that have other systems too and as a publisher you should think about that before releasing your game.

well there is the asia version I used to have

isn't it a retail release in Europe too? is it a full price in the european PS stores too?

NLKS needs a sale, a patch.. + the clout of NeoGAF to get it to No. 1

now it's more than 6 months since the release and it's still on full price, the people who cared enough to rate it are like 520 or something which mean the sales were abysmal,it's crazy that it's still in full price.

I think the DLCs put some people off too,that crap is insane.

NLKS is great... until the massive slow down hits.

even a patch won't resolve that?
I have yet to play it. at $20 I might bite. (with PS+ discounts... definitely)

well we don't know ,it's possible (Sonic got framerate fix via patch,other games on other platforms too)but honestly I don't think Konami/MrvAQL care enough to made a patch because of the sales.

Only solution for now (and maybe ever) to keep playable framerate going is to have less than 20 followers, have anymore and go to town and you'll know why we call this game New Little Framerate's Story.

Gun Commando is f****** terrible.

Was it really that hard for the designer of that to made an actual classic style maps,like just copy one from Doom and one from Quake and mix them.

 

[eddfromtheriver]

Thanks guys, i was about to buy Gun Commando, Nun Attack it is then.

I still don't have the trophy.

The trophy popped up for me at the very last dungeon during my first playthrough but I think the problem for some is going for the trophy late in the game when your party's already quite powerful. Some of Rise's easily missed lines are during situations when the enemy's much stronger than you (which won't happen often if you're efficient at levelling up your party.)

Dude I don't even know. The controls suck, weapons suck, enemies...everything. I just wanted skmething on that Doom engine running on Vita. Give me Chex Quest for all I care.

I'm on my second playthrough and set EXP to low during the whole game. I don't think I've missed out on any of the strong enemy lines.

 

[TheSeks]

Are all the lines audio or are they like Fuuka's where it's "*GASP* AN ENEMY?"

Do you also go on auto-battle mode a lot? She has a few unique lines for that. Otherwise, I guess just keep mixing up your party and keep scanning obsessively. You're probably just one or two lines away from the trophy at this point.

Are all the lines audio or are they like Fuuka's where it's "*GASP* AN ENEMY?"

All audio, I think.

Virtue's Last Reward free this month? Fuck yeah.

Oh, well, that certainly makes it harder. Maybe doing it on Extreme would work?

Really liking that the card you have in your Vita is shown in the menu bar now.

Got Persona 4 Golden from mail a couple of days ago and ordered Virtua Tennis yesterday. Vita collection keeps on growing. Can't wait to try out the Soul Sacrifice demo, but there's so many good games coming to handhelds that I'm not sure if I'll preorder it.

 

[omg_mjd]

XMB or email?

 

[ReaperXL7]

well I dont remember spending 100bucks on psn last month but I just got 20 back, awesome stuff. Now if only they would tell us when some of these indies are dropping I could decide what to do. hopefully Hotline, Spelunky, or terraria will drop soonish. Id spend it on Rainbow moon aswell,but thats not coming until the fall I believe.

 

[corrosivefrost]

XMB or email?

XMB only (didn't show up as a message on Vita); showed up at 2am EDT (11pm PDT) on the dot.

Wait for Thomas was Alone in two weeks
I've heard great things about that game.

Or that rpg game coming out next week. Personally I'm waiting on reviews for this one

Both games are cross buy and under $10
