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

Still loving my Vita.

Love MGS3 - started playing it before bed last night and just wanted to get the Save codec.

It's like I had almost forgot the patented Kojima talk-a-thon. "But wait - there's more!"

EDIT - top o' page

Guacamelee has been the most fun 2D game I've played in ages. Buy it. Cherish it. 100% it. I think it plays much better on Vita.
 
this might be a bit of a stretch buuuuutt.....

since so many people are disappointed with XboxOne and the direction MS is taking it...i'm thinking more people will go PS4 which in turn... wait for it.... leads to more vita sales!!

hahahaha. yeah. ok back to HSG crowns ;___;
 
What on earth is up with the rubbish/garbage section of chapter II on Sine Mora? Can get there without any real danger of losing lives then haemorrhage all of them in that one tiny section. :(
 
Welp, that One conference should sure make it easy to go PS4 next-gen. Dat remote play.

Any opinions on Men's Room yet? Stinks I have to add $5 to buy it.

I just downloaded it and played it for about 10 minutes. It's a lot of fun and really charming. The music and the art style are pretty cool and the game actually seems to ramp up the challenge fairly quickly. I certainly don't regret spending that one measly dollar on the game. Clear recommendation from my side!

I had some real problems with it ... but you need to hide among the garbage. and use the time thingum to your benefit

I've never seen a Sony game release in this state (referring to R&C: FFA). I think I'm going to delete it now.

and I was looking forward to this game ugh
 
R&C has a variable framerate, ranging from around 5-10fps to 45-60fps . Also seems to be sub-native res. I haven't tried multiplayer. It could be different.

Edit: It has an update which I did NOT use. That could change things.

Wow. That update had better be amazing.

FAKE EDIT:

So I take it the update didn't work?
 
Screens plz

Past that spaceship part at the beginning, the framerate seems to be closer to the 15-30fps range, but rarely seems to be at 30fps.

Also level of detail is reeeeally bad. You can see the detail coming in about 5 feet in front of Ratchet:

That point in front of Ratchet where the grass texture ends is pretty consistent with the distance in front of the character the detail pops in.

Damn... But I can't wait to hear toto opinion on this...
 
Oh my gawd. Those can't be real.
Post the real pics, not those badly photoshopped jpegs.

What's with the UI? Is the text really like that?

Wow.
 
Men's room mayhem is pretty fun. I don't really play these kinds of phone games very often I'm sure its nothing special but still fun
 
I guess this FFA disaster will prepare people for the horror that will be the Jak Collection. Because the framerate in that trailer looked worse than 15fps.
 
Damn I want Revelations Vita I would have scooped that up early.


What were they doing with the game all this time if it was delayed? Probably deciding to release it or trash it but figured we needed mo gaemz, so they said here have at it.
 
Wow. FFA is a slideshow. Thank god I have the ps3 version. Thus far, this is the worst port I have in my collection.

Finally someone else that's played it, lol. I was worrying that it was only me since I hadn't heard a word from anyone else. Apparently it's just that hardly anybody has it.
 
obviously Nihilistic
No, it's an unknown dev called Tin Giant with some former Insomniac employees. And I guess the delays were because TG was having problems, and ultimately wasn't up to the task. At one point they just had to either cancel it or go f**k it and push it out there. Sony handing out Deadlocked/Gladiator as compensation to PS3 cross-buyers seems less like charitable action and more a necessity now.

Man, I'd take another delay if it improved the performance.
I'd guess Sony figures the game is as good as it's going to get without a complete overhaul. Inexperienced dev + heavily PS3 optimized engine probably didn't work out.
 
Am I the only one that gets a C2-12383-7 error when I try to install PS+ Pinball Arcade?

Suppose I'll pick up Jacob Jones if I need to charge $5 to pick up Men's Room.

Nope. Something is busted with Pinball Arcade right now. People have been bringing it up on the PS blog.
 
I suck at the platforming. The stuff where you have to switch between dimensions and have to time the jumps. I am horrible at it and I just wanted to destroy my Vita last night. :P

That's exactly where I was stuck too. :) What helped me was pressing jump + dimension switch at the same time, then uppercut.

Also, doing a headbutt in mid-air will delay your fall in case you mistimed your dimension switch.

That's the thing though. Last night it would let me jump after I had hit the dimension switch.
 
Should I buy BB or GG on Vita for local play? Which one is "easier" to get into? And how well does GG play with Vita controls?
 
Guess I'll just....cancel my FFA download for Vita :|

at least we got Deadlocked, which I never played.

Pray for the Jak collection, people

I think BB is easier to get into, though I wouldn't call it easy to be good. Looks and runs fantastic on Vita. Free next week on PS+ (US).

Holy shit! And that has sub-10fps drops? Ouch.
 
Oh lordie Dragons Crown cant come soon enough. Im getting a stomach ache from all this filler. The screens shown from that Jak n Daxter collection do not look that great also especially for HD remake on such a beautiful small screen. Currently GG has the best looking and probably the most complete console experience next to UGA. FFA should have not been released in its state, burn that shit with fire.
