I'd probably read the Wiki as well. I've been playing it off and on since it was released and it just never sticks with me despite liking the story. When I do eventually beat it I seriously doubt I'll go through it again and again despite being the point.
It's not possible to get the best ending the first playthrough.
It's what makes 999 and VLR interesting. If you play through either one once for one ending, it's like playing the first third of a regular game.

I just completed my second playthrough of 999 in anticipation of VLR on Plus. I really liked the "second/true" ending and how it made sense with the rest of the story. I'm hoping that VLR offers similar gripping drama.
You have my axe and my knife!

just started VLR last night and it's really cool so far.
I decided to team up with luna to tackle the magenta room
with phi.
I was surprised at how long the introduction took lol I was so tired and it was hard to get through. My tired brain couldn't comprehend the color system and everything lol.
anyway,
I wonder when plus will get pinball arcade

Vanquish is a damn good game.

VLR is absolutely fantastic. One of the few vita games I have finished. Truly an engrossing experience.

It's much more streamlined. You won't have to replay stuff like you did in 999.
The US version is better than the EU purely because you can just sit and listen to all the talking as opposed to mashing X when reading the text.

sooooo damn happy about VLR being free right now.
It keeps a flowchart and lets you jump around in it. You don't have to do any puzzle rooms more than once.
It still might. They haven't announced July's games yet.

That's too bad, unfortunately the Zero Escape games take quite a long time to hit their payoff, but once they do it's a doozy.

I'm very happy VLR is free, but also sad so many are playing it without having played 999 ffirst.
I'm sure they can still enjoy it, it just does so much more for the overall experience. Hopefully it gets them to go back and pick up the first one, I still feel it's a little better than VLR.

Don't worry, you don't need to comprehend the color system, the other characters will list who will go through each door. All you need to do is check the flowchart to see which one you want to go through.
Pinball Arcade should be up in US PS+, and I thought EU already had it a while ago.
Selection is still pretty poor though.
I've found it to be decent overall, but there's some weird holes for sure. Plus a surprising amount of incorrect metadata.

PLEASE NO ONE READ WIKI TO SOLEY FIND OUT ABOUT 999 FOR THE LOVE OF CHRIST
Play once. Use a guide to help you from there one.
NO WIKI
People are robbing themselves of so much.if they read a Wiki.
Read the Wiki once your done - YOU WILL WANT TO THEN!
No one post the "Something is wrong on the internet" meme now, as there is something wrong this time, and I need to fix it!!

For a Let's Play sort of deal, This one's not too bad. Although it's really an experience worth having yourself, especially if you're enjoying VLR now.
The best thing VLR has over 999 is the Flow Chart, however the replays on 999 aren't too bad.
I'm sorry, but I really really hate replaying games. Don't do it (discounting a couple classics like FFIX, which I have done a couple times during, oh, the last 13 years or whatever).
Forcing a player to replay the game over and over, including all those damn puzzles, is a fucking retarded and frustrating mechanic. Do I want to find out more about the story? Sure. Do I want to go through all the puzzles and all that stuff over again? Uh, no thanks.
If there was something that fast forwarded you to the decision forks in the game, then yeah, I'd give it a shot. But I don't have time to be playing through one game ad nauseum.

But the game does allow you to fast forward to the decision forks....
Except for the puzzles, but you can get puzzles you have not done before.

Wonder how many GB BF3 will be, hopefully they only include MP part of it but i doubt it

Will they announce the games for July next Monday? Because I just bought BF3 used from Gamestop, and have 7 days to return just in case.
kevcampbell

I think only EU is getting BF3
I also hate replaying games. That's why I aimed for the True End in 999. But VLR makes it so you can skip anything that you've already done, and you don't actually repeat any puzzle. Every decision leads to different puzzles.

I think the first ending I got, I'd only seen about 25% of the game. It's built on the idea of checking out the different routes through the game's rooms, and experiencing the different conversations that might happen depending on who you're with. To that end they have that fast-forward feature, to let you skip over the conversations that you've seen before.
I strongly recommend trying to see more endings. I mean, use a wiki if you're stuck trying to find what you've missed, but you can't really get the game's story otherwise

All this talk about 999, multiple endings and "required" playthroughs made me think of Konami's Shadow of Destiny (Shadow of Memories), a PS2/PC game which I absolutely love. I wish we had more games like that on consoles.
Interest piqued on 999 and VLR.

Never, ever play Astro Boy GBA.
AFAIK you can only use those trials if it's the first time you're on PS+?
