Vita PSN Game & Service Thread | May 2013 | Lovecraftian Wasteland

I wish I had a PC to make more gifs of Vita clips in games like UC, Wipeout, GR, Unit 13 etc. That gifcam program makes it super easy. Soon.

I don't think people really know what the games are like going by how shocked many were by a wipeout gif I made a while back that was way too much effort without the program.

I WANT TO SEE DEM GIFS :O
 
Click download, then cancel when it starts downloading. It will be tied. I think you can do it through the site too. With the PS3 you don't need to download I don't think.

Thanks. I figured it was just the download click but wanted to make sure. I downloaded Uncharted and then realized i wasn't in the mood for that type of game right now but also didn't want to keep it on my Vita taking up space.

I get horrible frame rates on the gifs I make with gifcam for some reason.
 
I have a video of Jacob Jones going up on my channel in about an hour and a half so if you want to see the game in action, check me out. (Also, still saving for a capture Vita. D:)

But there's something else I wanna draw attention to...

http://www.shacknews.com/article/79...confusing-console-exclusive-pre-order-bonuses

Pre-ordering the game at GameStop will entitle you to get a console-specific bonus costume for use in the game. ... However, on Wii U, you'll get Barbara dressed in an Assassin's Creed 3: Liberation costume--a game that's a Vita exclusive.

...seriously, Ubisoft. The fuck? This doesn't make ANYONE happy. You're pissing off Vita fans who want the game, and you're pissing off Wii U fans who can't play the game you're promoting with the costume.

This is... really weird. If Legends comes to Vita I'll get it in a heartbeat. I can't imagine them not putting it on Vita, you know?

Also - Vita gaf, am I missing out on stuff from PSM? I've never really played the games, Kotaku's vid about that weird named game RYMDKAPSEL has me intrigued - it looks awesome, simple and fun. Worth 5$?

I think the prompt "Thank you for buying!" bla bla bla is enough to tied your purchase to your account.

I know because yesterday I have numerous failed attempt to start downloading (after my wallet got cut already >___>) but I don't have to repurchase them (thankfully, otherwise I'd rage like a raging Zeus)

Anyways: Soul Sacrifice! Surprisingly very nice music! Though I only tried it for around 15 minutes or so.
 
moar #portbegging...

I really, really hope Fez comes to vita. What a delight it would be on this screen.

Its already pretty much been confirmed to be coming from phish himself, we are just waiting for the announcement since he just released the PC version we may have to wait abit. Maybe E3.

The menu music with the chanting lady gets on my nerves. I thought it was cute and all at first but now it makes me want to mute the game whenever it plays.
 
How do I cut the pizza in Jacob?

The way it works out is that there are 2 pieces with one anchovy on each, the piece on the right with 3 pieces of pepperoni, a bigger piece on the left with only vegetables, a single tomato in the middle, and a mixture of stuff on the top slice (the one for Jacob). Make sure the cuts don't go through an ingredient, I got busted a couple times for having a sliver of mushroom or something on the wrong slice.
 
you guys are really making me want to get this game. i guess the fun/cutesy look is deceiving.

I'm about six puzzles in and I'm enjoying it. I think I saw it described as a puzzle and adventure game, but the only "adventure game" stuff so far is being able to swipe the camera views around to find cans and birds scattered around. The cans act as hint tokens, not sure what the birds do other than get you a couple trophies. I don't usually play puzzle games, but I have a feeling some of these puzzles are things that would be familiar to a person who has played other games.

i haven't really played much of anything like this so everything will probably feel new to me. i was going to wait for some sort of bundle, but i'll grab it tomorrow.

i really like this announcement and quick release. i certainly wouldn't mind if more did it.
 
Just finished Jacob Jones. Took 4 hours. I didn't 100% everything. I may go back (I got 52% of the trophies in the playthrough). REALLY enjoyable game and I'm excited for episode 2. Can't believe it was only $2.99 really.

Thank you so much! This game is getting aggravating ><

There are some really good games on there. Not tried rymdkapsel myself but heard good things. If you grab it, get another PSM game with the change. Nunnageddon, Rebel, one of FuturLab's games ...all good bets
 
So Carl, when are you going to make the OT for Velocity Ultra?

How long does it take to get to the good part of Knytt Underground? I remember the demo being pretty boring.

All the game is like that, the first two chapters are the tutorials and the third chapter is the actual game. I really need to get back to that game. The world is huge.

You can rush through the first couple of chapters, takes less than an hour if memory serves.
 
So I missed the trophy for the Note of Friendship puzzle in Jacob Jones and it won't let me retry that puzzle. In the whole list of puzzles, that's the only one that's greyed out. Is it greyed out because it has a trophy tied to it and they don't want you to just redo it to get the trophy? I can redo the other trophy related puzzles, but I did get those trophies on the first try.
 
I didn't notice, that Valkyria Chronicles 2 is available on EU Vita PSN store. Bought it in a heartbeat. I have waited over 2 years to play this game.

Honestly? Nothing super-great.

Life of Pixel, Rock Boshers DX, rymdkapsel, Switch Galaxy are all pretty good. Terrortown is kind of interesting.

And if you like puzzle games Tractor Trails, Word Blocked, and Penguin Party are fun enough.

But if you were never to play them, I don't think you would be too remorseful on your deathbed. But if you have nothing else to play, they are probably worth your time.
 
Say, does multiplayer games typically require much bandwith? Can tethering be used as a reliable method to play online games on Vita where no Wi-Fi is available?

I've been curious about this as well. I always figured it wouldn't work well since 3g is pretty slow (haven't tried 4g).
 
No! No no no no no!
This thing reminds me of the dice puzzles in VLR. I do enjoy a challenge, but those particular puzzles were a pain!
What options for movement are available in that puzzle? I assume you can flip/rotate the log as well? Quite looking forward to picking it up now. :)

A friend of mine plays SS on his 3G connection without too many problems. I guess it'll depend on the game (I tried WO and it struggled, and that was on an incredibly good connection as well).
 
Nah, I'm just saying he should make the OT.

Oh I see good idea. Can't wait to check out the game myself! Won't get a chance to play it too long though, if at all actually lol with the way the touchscreen is working...and work...!

Hmm sucks to hear that about Gifcam VW, will try it myself later but seems like it works well for some people? Maybe they're using a different program..

Good to know about the confirmation window being enough Laughing Banana, thanks.
 
Don't know if it was mentioned (too damn hard to keep up), but Assassin's Creed Liberation is on sale for US $26.99 and Hot Shots is $17.99.

Bought Jacob Jones and is quite a pleasant surprise. Having a lot of fun with it. I finally got Liberation with the sale. Haven't tried it yet... having that freezing issue when downloading. Any tips to fix the freezing?
 
Finally the day we've all been waiting for ;)


Make sure you grab it when it goes up at some point today, EUbros.

So Carl, when are you going to make the OT for Velocity Ultra?

You guys think there should be one? If no one else wants to make one i'm sure i can throw something simple together. Nothing fancy though.

A bug, I think. I had to redo at least one trophy puzzle.

Yeah, I don't see why not. It's a Vita game and Jacob has an OT so why not Velocity Ultra?
