hmm from what im seeing it doesnt look as much of a MH Clone as i thought. Maybe when more info is released? It looks like a hybrid hunting/RPG?

3G itself is a pointless feature and a 4GB card is completely worthless, but the 3G SKU is still the better deal, since you get 1 year of Plus and a game, which are worth more than the price difference with the basic SKU.
Not sure really, it just sound like a MonHun game inspired by Attack on Titan (as in kill the monsters and rescue civilians/save town) and that still a MonHun game.
still need to see/know more about it.
there was a retail games only lineup with games covers for 2013 (not sure if anyone was updating it) now that was really depressing.

It doesn't include what could be revealed at the presser tho. Isn't that just from the floor plan code or w/e? If the giant third party game Shahid and his boss were teasing really is that big, you can bet Sony is holding that card VERY close to their chest.

Rumor: Folklore 2 is in the works for Vita.

I really had hard time to finish Space Invaders knock off. And some timed trial zones are very difficult as well.

This is what has me excited. I wish there was more of a dedicated/not Toro app that was like a "lounge" or "hangout" app, I feel like one of the hardest things on Vita is getting everyone together at one time to get a party chat going.
There's something about having an avatar and just kind of hanging out, chatting with random people. Maybe I'm the only person who likes that, lolol. I really like what PS Home is trying to do, but my main gripe is basically the limits of the PS3 OS, i.e. making it harder to load any game from Home and such, although that may also be on the Home end of things.
Maybe we'll all start using the Toro app from now on to round everyone up before hopping into a party chat. My main issue is not having a regular gaming schedule, some days I'm way too busy and can't play at night after work.
Misread that as Toto's Friend Network. I'd play that game. Yeah, this one just looks kinda like Home. Someone once compared it to an Animal Crossing RPG (I think?), but it doesn't really look anything like that to me so I dunno. :/

Needs a breakout success of some sort in the West so that he can officially become the international mascot of Sony.
That was spot on LOL

So I wanted to see how often you guys are using NEAR, if at all. I used to use it a lot more frequently, I want to get back into the habit of checking in with it wherever I go. This was my biggest check in with NEAR, flying from USA to China with my wife:
So Vitagaf, what are some of your impressive/memorable NEAR check ins?
(southeast China, a few hours away from Shanghai)

The only Monster Hunter clone I know of is that one game that stole the HUD from the Monster Hunter series straight up. And even then, it looks like it one ups Monster Hunter since the combat seemed to have some variation to it.
What's a Velocity Ultra?
Game of the month is Disgaea? I think I'll stay away, I played a bit of the first Disgaea (a dozen hours or so) and some ZHP and NIS is always the same: "Here's a cool setting! Here are some cool characters! Now go on a content-free grind for hours before we develop any of those any further!" Hell, Disgaea's item levels are a feature Xzibit would love, it lets you grind while you grind!

Yo dawg, I heard you like grinding...

I love the idea of Near, but has anyone ever figured out how the hell to interpret it? The number in the "Out and About Chart" seeems to bear no relation to anything. For example, I have 166 people 'playing' Youtube but if I select the app for more details it says players "47/99".
That's three numbers it's firing at me for one app - 166, 47 and 99. What do they represent?

You poor poor thing, still nothing in NA? How come?

I think I heard about it several months ago. Must be vaporware.
corrosivefrost

There's a lot of that for Vita -- I seem to recall the Flying Hamster HD developers telling me that it would release in NA during the month of May.
Here it is, June, and nothing.
Hotline Miami and Terarria? Also vaporware, I'd wager.

I wonder if they are saving them for e3 so they can have a "bigger" line up for the rest of the year. ie, We have 40 games planed for the rest of the year instead of 30 games, etc.
SCEA QA is very effective at blocking releases. Unless it's from a big publisher, like Bethesda for example, that managed to release a game that would crash your PS3 upon receiving a PSN message.
corrosivefrost

Vaporware.
SCEA QA is a miserable failure.
Like you say, I remember Skyrim -- the wonderful game that turned into a slideshow if you put any time into it. (And I somehow stuck with it and got a platinum too!)
Yet there are games like Frobisher and Flying Hamster (etc.) that could be released quickly and people would buy them, yet it takes months and months.
I wonder if SCEA QA is the reason our PSOne/PSP support kind of sucks...
YES! Really awesome news for me! Handhelds are the perfect place for a game like this. I loved the first Runner on Steam but Vita is so much better suited for it.

Already played it on wii u, fantastic game though
Me too, but I'm probably going to get it again on Vita.

Knock it off Uncharted 3 wasn't as great as 2, but it wasn't a disaster.

It's a piece of shit that no one likes. Avoid it even if it's free. In fact, if someone pays you to take one, just call the police immediately.
Don't feed the troll.

Yes, I can play VLR!
American PS Plus?
Yes, I can play VLR!
Yessir + 2 more PlayStation 3 titles.
Seriously, "ignore Toto by all costs" should be in the OP.
On another note, I've been grinding non-stop in P4G so I can get a Black Frost. Should have spent more time in the TV...

Ah nice! I forgot to post my overall stats on NEAR, here they are:
Anyone else care to share their NEAR stats?
AWESOME! I can't wait for it ... just wish we had release dates for these indie games. As long as that and Terraria hit this summer... HYPE!
Frobisher Says took like.... 6 months+ to come stateside from EU. It was already in English, so yes that is an example but other games have been timely as well. Although I did lose it over Farm Simulator taking an extra few months to come to the states :\
Also about June PS+, SO EXITED! The only game there that I've played/own is Deus Ex. My birthday is next week so it's like Sony knew!
Mine got deleted after I had been around Europe, Colombia and Puerto Rico. Broke my heart...even if it doesn't give anything. It should give us trophies.

Yeah after seeing several of you guys saying it gets wiped if your system is formatted (right?) .... that really worries me. Sony REALLY needs to fix that, NEAR is a core part of Vita's functionality and if it can all be wiped, that's a major issue.

Which troll? Cause from where I'm sitting, Uncharted 2 is still the worst of the bunch while Uncharted 3 is near or equal to the best put forth from that series.

Wake Up Club. And Treasure Park. And the Gift Box one. And Flying Hamster HD. And Rolling Octopus HD. And Velocity Ultra. And Frobisher Says. And the Frobisher Says DLC. And beyond all that, it could very well be the reason the NA store sucks for PSOne compared to EU/JP.
When I contacted the developers/publishers of Flying Hamster HD, I was told on 3/20 that the game should be out in the beginning of May. May has come and gone. Why is it still having problems if it's already working and released in Europe?
I've just emailed them back again to find out.
