No please no one should waste his money on one of the most overrated game i have ever played.
Do really some line of text cover how mediocre the game really is? It's really short, easy, annoying and repetitive, the only good segments are some with the green square and even them are not that good.
A very mediocre game with blatantly "artistic" coat of paint.

I don't agree - i've dozens of shitty artistic critically aclaimed indie platformers on pc bough at 1$ per 5 in bundles and none of them made me spend few hours playing them.
Actual most of them were turned off in less than 5 minutes.

Top of page - so buy Valkyria Chronicles 2 from todays sale in EU.

MarvelousAQL posted their financials and called out strong sales of Vita software (Muramasa Rebirth, Valhalla Knights 3 and Senran Kagura Shinovi Versus).

Valhalla Knights 3 is coming over to the West later this year.

Deathmatch Village? Yes or no

I was about to ask about it. It's available on the webstore. Apparently it's a F2P MOBA in a western universe. Any news about it?

There was a post on the EU blog but not screens or media, none on the Vita page either... suspicious.

 

[FDC1]

Well, it's free, we'll see.

If you're in a PSM country you should give Shuttle Quest a download. You can play the first mission for free and it's actually pretty good.

Also, hi!

Hi Carl!!!

 

[jon bones]

Got a little taste of Dragon's Crown last nite. Didn't get to complete the first mission.

The game looks PHENOMENAL on Vita's OLED. I mean this in every sense of the word, no usual GAF hyperbole here.

Colors have intense warmth and saturation, The clarity in the lines is visible. The backgrounds and forground scenes have a nice sense of depth. The artstyle really shines well on the screen. I started as a Dwarf. Can't wait to play more later during my lunch.


I think Im gonna be stuck playing this and Soul Sacrifice for right now. My PSP games will get shoved in the closet. Top tier handheld gaming here folks. Vita hasn't let me down since Day One.

Pretty freakin awesome firmware update we just got. So random too!!!

yeahh baby! can't wait to get out of work and play more DC.

[VindictiveGnome]

Is it possible to share the digital version of Dragon's Crown? I'd like to split it with my friend, if possible. Would I just buy it, then use the transfer tool on the PS3 to put it on his Vita?

 

[FDC1]

new releases this week in Europe:

Floating Cloud God Saves The Pilgrims In HD!: 3,59€
Deathmatch Village: free
Breakquest Extra Evolution: free
Die!Die!Die!: 5,99€

+ some DLC including a free one for Soul Sacrifice

Hi Carl!

Does anyone knows if Muramasa Rebirth is getting a European release?

 

[Aytrial]

No publisher has been confirmed yet. Only Dragon's Crown has been announced for release.

 

[SovanJedi]

I just bought the Super House of Dead Ninjas DLC on Steam and gifted a copy of the game to a buddy, all with the intent of convincing the dev to bring it to Vita....that's how this works right?

You got that right! The game will look swell on the Vita OLED! Are you gonna tweet them or something?

Make sure to ask Adult Swim Games about it as it's ultimately their decision. We'd love to see it come out on Vita, though!

Well, you'll have to connect with your PSN account on its Vita, but yes it's possible.

I don't believe it's possible unless they use your account specifically on their Vita.

Edit: Floating Cloud God HD is up on the Aussie (and probably EU) store now. PixelJunk Monsters: Ultimate HD is also now up on the Australian store.

 

[Darkangus]

No publisher has been confirmed yet. Only Dragon's Crown has been announced for release.

Thanks Aytrial.

And no rumours right? I would by the US version but not getting the DLC is a big no no....

Still no date for Dragon´s Crown in Europe?

 

[OmegaTreeFish]

It's only got a release window, but the Australian date was apparently confirmed for October 17th and Zavvi listed the date as October 13th for Europe, so it seems like October is likely. There is a brilliant iOS remake/remaster in 16:9 that even adds Knuckles and Tails as playable characters. I wish it would get a Vita release but it probably wont

Oh damn. Still I got enough to keep me going. Wife pre-ordered my PS4 today and I have missed the first batch window now. So unless some people cancel or what ever I prob wont get it till after xmas. So hopefully DC and killzone will keep me busy until then and Soul Sac will tidy me over till those 2.

 

[FDC1]

I don't think we have more precise info than "this fall". Bet on October.

Hope we can get a nice Edition for Dragon's Crown because of the time difference. ^_^

 

[EsotericManiac]

Holy crap the cross-save feature in DC is amazing. I wish Monster Hunter did it that smart.

You upload your save to their server and download it on any machine. You can then copy that save to any of your 3 save files. It's a very quick process.

 

[OmegaTreeFish]

So still no spelunky this week then. Ho Hum.

whats the soul sacrifice DLC? still got tons of stuff to do on that games desipite doing all the main story bar kill mag. More free DLC is always welcome.

2 more bosses, I think -- the usual, MO, it seems.

And now Grand Knight History and Shinovi Versus Burst plz.

 

[Napalm_Frank]

Yay got my sixth Vita Platinum from Velocity Ultra :3 (would have 7 if it wasn't for the damn HC Risette Fan >_<)

Next up I'll start either Lumines, Unit 13 or Ninja Gaiden. Dat PS+ <3. Tho NG plat would prolly be hard as balls so might just do a normal playtrough.

 

[ZeroAKA]

I would by the US version but not getting the DLC is a big no no....

Just as a FYI, the only DLC available right now for Dragon's Crown is a narrator voice pack unlock, all of which can be unlocked by playing through the game normally if the official site is anything to go by.

 

[michaelius]

That's the definition of meh DLC for me.

Instead of throwing more bosses like that they shoud put 1 or 2 more companion sorcerers with stories and some new monsters.
Or a new side story chapter

Seeing as its free I am more than happy with it.

They could easily sell DLC for like £5 that had 3 new monsters within 3 new companion quests I think though.

(1) It's free.
(2) It's quality.
(3) At some point, they gave out a brand new companion quest for free as well.

 

[Baron Von Beans]

Yes even though I have yet to beat all of it, the amount of free DLC for SS is just pure win. So great seeing the support that was given to the game be paid off in that facet.

The DLC comment was for Muramasa Rebirth, because there isn't a date for Europe.
For Dragon´s Crown I will wait for the European release. I have patience and a lot of games to play... ^_^

 

[Lovegooder]

Is the Vita version of Dragon’s Crown the exact same as the PS3 version?

 

[Sid]

What are the chances that Demon's Souls and Dark Souls will get ported to the Vita? at least Sony can make the former happen.

 

[Autofokus]

After 10min. of Google-Fu, I still don't know what Die!Die!Die! (the game, from todays EU update) is.

 

[Moobabe]

0 chance? At the very most a 2D metroidvania Souls like game - which now I mention it sounds pretty cool.

Is the Vita version of Dragon&#8217;s Crown the exact same as the PS3 version?

yeah from what i know - the vita version makes use of the touch screen to pick up loot etc. where as the ps3 version has a clunky cursor. the PS3 version of course has more screen space and a TINY TINY bit more stable framerate.

i think the vita ver is the definitive one, unless you're concerned with the art being clustered on a tiny screen.

 

[eliochip]

- Theres slowdown when it gets chaotic

+ The touch screen allows for better controls when selecting things on screen (ps3 gets a little cursor that you move around that isn't as natural)

Gamescom rumors were flying around about - something. Nothing concrete though, just that main staff involved in the series were not primarily involved in work on Dark Souls 2.

I saw this yesterday actually, didn't know it was made by a GAFfer - someone tweet this to Shahid!

Verendus was teasing something along those lines - though he never mentioned the Vita.

That is for the PS4 game.

Nope! I got a Vita last Saturday—the more gaming I can do on it, the better.

Oh hell yeah! September will belong to KZ M,GTA V and Kickbeat. So the PS3 version is whats been holding the game back :L eh whatever, its finally releasing!

 

[EsotericManiac]

the vita gets the same cursor, but you can elect to use the touch screen. the click by touch is nice but i don't prefer all the fingerprints

Woo! Looking forward to having another rhythm game to mess around with.

 

[Moobabe]

Why?

Well Japan studios so far have offered us... some monster hunter type games? I can't think of much else from them for the Vita.

 

[gragy10]

How's the Vita version of Sly: Thieves in Time?
Seriously tempted by the EU £10 cross play sale but I'll be spending 90% of my time playing it on Vita

What is he about to say?

Yeah, how's that working out by the way? I know the WiiU is getting a lot more of indie announcements even though it's newer than Vita and it's doing just as poorly, sales wise.
