Yeah, that's been happening to me more frequently as well. Is there a way to turn off the prompt asking if I want to share that I purchased/downloaded a specific item? I think that may be the problem. I click no, nothing happens. I click no again, still nothing. Then the prompt disappears, but the background is slightly greyed out and I can't do anything except a reboot.

Actually, if you get into a long 4 player match with lots of cards, it starts being a real pain to play even in full console resolution.

Yes, it's been doing that for the last few months. I thought one update fixed it for a while, but apparently not.

damn! I just installed gods eater burst and holy shit this opening cinematic is great! The music and art style is amazing. Its giving me a persona vibe for some reason.
I just bought my (used) Vita like 2 days ago and this kept happening to me. I thought my Vita might just be messed up. Relieved to see it's PSN.

Does anyone know if Jonah Lomu's Rugby Challenge was released in the US for Vita? The reason why i ask is because i see a few sellers from USA on Play.com that sells the Vita version. However, i've only seen the european version of (with PEGI age-rating, not with ESRB age-rating). I sent a mail to one of the sellers, but they couldnt check the items personally due to different locations of the warehouses.
quick look around online suggests the 360 version is the only version released in NA, ps3 and vita only seem to have PEGI on

Jak Collection Vita
Played about an hour so far of Jak 1. The game runs at like 25fps. Its not terrible, and perfectly playable, but you can definitely tell. If you rotate the camera slowly, you get a jitter to the image. Its sort of like the jitter on PSX games. During regular gameplay, you can tell it is just under native resolution. Cutscenes in engine look really nice. In the options menu, there is a toggle for rumble so I think they did a straight PS3 to Vita port job here.
In the end, I think it's worth a purchase, even with these problems. The gameplay is enjoyable, and I'm really digging the atmosphere so far. This will be my first Jak game and I am impressed.

This made me go into a hysterical cackling fit.
EDIT: Oh, Epic Mickey 2's out? When did that happen lol
Loving the lack of demos for these new releases...

Yup still just a generic summer date.
I can't wait for it. It'll be my most played Vita game by dozens and dozens of hours.
Pubs probably running with the "demos cut your sales in half" belief.
Want to download Burst so bad but 4GB and Blazblue ;_;
I'll have to wait it till like Sunday
I did they seem to fix a lot of problems

Well, when your game's going to sell approximately seven copies regardless, I guess a demo is unnecessary. But all these framerate concerns leave me wary, so too bad, I guess - not getting a sale from me.

Nope. :/
These indies always creep up on us. We'll hear little to nothing and then one day there'll be a post on the PS Blog along the lines of "*Indie Game* releases on PS3/PS Vita this week/month!"
Expecting a post about Hotline Miami very soon, haha.

Couple things caught my eye:
Fieldrunners 2
Dragon's Crown
Hotline Miami
Killzone: Mercenary
Luftrausers
Spelunky
Tearaway
Walking Dead
Ys: Memories of Celceta
Ok maybe more than just a couple.

It's been happening to me as well. Who do we tell at Sony so they can look into it?
Wow.. Im so effing torn on this... I have the HD Collection for PS3, But I keep thinking it would get more burn from me on Vita...
So the game plays fine? It just has visible port jankiness? Damn I need more media to decide
If we get no decent size Vita game announcements at Gamescom I will be sufficiently able to say the Vita is dead. Sales are terrible, retailers around the country aren't even carrying Vita games, and we got nothing substantial at E3. I guess we will see. But yeah, two major conferences in a row without any substantial announcements in the second year of a console would definitely be a death sign.

yeah, they designed dotp for 1024x768 and above. it's possible considering wagic (psp homebrew) runs in 320x240 but it would require interface redesign and they have a hard enough time just supporting the game as is. they do a poor job scaling the cards, would look terrible in 960x544
You want my opinion man?
Move the goalpost to Gamescon in August. If we see no new Vita titles there... then I hope you're getting a PS4 bruh. It was a fun ride...
You left too soon Vita...
After PS4 has been on the market for a year, Those Vita titles will start POURING IN... All devs/Sony care about is install base

Is there a guide for using adhoc party on Vita?
--
Anyone got any tips to speed up this multiplayer level grinding in AC3:L? I'm level 9 -- it seems like it's going to take FOREVER to reach 15. :\
yup just happened to me with god eater

Yes and when i restart it, the second attempt always works. Odd
Just enter ad hoc mode like on PSP.
Game seems alright but DEM PIXELY BLOWN UP GRAPHICS. *bites lip so hard it bleeds*
The game is one of the PSP has to offer imo. The story after the main story arc is pretty good

I never owned a PSP. How do I enter ad-hoc mode? Do I need to do something on PS3 too?
Start up the Ad-hoc Party application:
"Listen for signals" or something like that in the triangle menu.
Start ad-hoc mode for the game (depends on the game so this isn't universal) ad-hoc mode should start (it should auto-switch on this system and the menu bar will be A instead of the blue-tooth/wifi logo for ad-hoc signals), PS3 should find it and list rooms for God Eater Burst automatically.
Otherwise host room and then do similar for it to pick you up.
My exact face when I saw the character creation close-ups. Just why would you blow up the pixels by 4, Sony? WHY? WHY!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
I am not going to pretend its encouraging, but I wouldn't call it dead. I can see why people are freaking out. It could stop releasing games today though and I would be loaded up with enough gaming to be happy for several years.

Do you have to install the PSP ad-hoc application?
I think I tried that once and it wouldn't install?
Man I'm tired. I meant Gamescom. But yeah, I'm getting PS4 so at least there will be that.

Gunpoint is going to take a while: it's developed on a three-year-old version of Game Maker, so an external studio will have to come in and do a remake, effectively.
You have to install the app on PS3, yes. There is no PSP version.
It's pretty easy to use, man. And since God Eater 2 won't have infrastructure despite it being 2013 but will have support for both handhelds to be using ad-hoc party, you might as well learn it now if you're going that route/picking that up.

Would I enjoy Gods Eater by myself or would it be a pain in the ass to play that way like Monster Hunter is?
AI allies are amazing don't worry.
Press select it should be in the first or second area you entered.
Happens everytime for me.
I also bought it and think Jak 1 plays fine. Frame rate does not bother me at all. The worst part is the camera control. If you want these games on the go, pick it up.
Yeah, game looks SUPER cool. The whole E3 demo looked awesome.
There's AI allies that seem decent. I haven't gotten above Difficulty 2 yet but there's 5 (with 3 more?) difficulty levels. If you are renting it, I don't see why you wouldn't download it just to try it out. There's no trophies since it's a PSP game so no harm to you?
Wait, the blinking blue light is a bad sign?! I get it whenever I put my Vita to sleep. It blinks for a while and then turns off. Is that normal? Or is it related to the problem you had?
It is normal. Relax.
