Vita PSN Game & Service Thread | August 2013 | Divekicks & Dragons

If Sony launch a 64 GB MC, how much the price is gonna be I wonder. I bought my 32GB MC for about... 80 bucks, so... double that? @_____@



[

Wouldn't surprise me.
Some Vitamuffin is going to get a good deal buying my 32gb off me.

Y'know, I don't even know my 3DS friend code (such a stupid system). What games might I have that would even use it? Maybe Mario Kart 7?
 
Lol, that hippo outfit got me laughing so hard.

Still, I'm not sure how this game will do. I always thought Vita gamers are more core than that.

But again, Miku and Kagura sold decently, although those appeal to the otaku audience.

I guess we'll see.

Core gamers are essentially video game otaku, lol
 
Well, finished the main portion of Rayman Origins. Few games I double dip on, even rare for me to finish it on both systems. But even though I had other games to finish I had to keep playing Rayman because it is too good. The platforming and running feels so right.


Just wish the sound glitches weren't there and framerate to be a little better in some sections of some levels. Still a great portable version.

Maybe I'll go and complete the Living Dead levels this time.

There's only the 1.
And if you've done it once, the 2nd run isn't so bad.
However, learning the timing and the patterns the first time? PAIN IN THE ASS. :lol

64 GB is tempting but I don't know if I have the heart to fork over around 160 bucks for it. I mean, that's just... asking too much :\

And yeah, friend-codes are silly, hahaha. Well, various multi-player enabled games use those, such as Animal Crossing and Mario Kart 7, although many also can connect to random players (such as you don't need to be friends with A to play online with A)

I was led astray by a positive review on a blog I trusted. :( Still hurts man.

Games like those... I just usually don't touch. Typically they can give maybe an amusement for one or two hours, but after that, "Why am I buying this" will start to creep up.

I understand feeling robbed by small stuff like that, actually. In fact, one of my biggest "WTF am I thinking" moments for Vita was purchasing the waterbrush+colors+paint pack for the new Paint Park app :(
 
I am legitimately annoyed by it. Like, "Insert my fist through the monitor to punch the other guy" kind of annoyed.

*Sigh* It's silly, I know.

Nah I know what you mean. I have just learned to walk away..some arguments are just not worth it. I remember in the early days I joined gaf, few people went ape shit on me saying I'm a Nintendo hater because I said they should do a eshop discount for games like sony. I was annoyed then but meh who cares. Not worth it.

Either way VitaGaf knows who you are. :D

If the 64gb is reasonable, I'll bite. I have some disposable income as I'm pretty good at keeping expenses down most of the time... and I'm soooo sick of having to juggle space. :D

As far as FCs go, that sounds totally useless then. :lol

And as far as the "dammit, that game is on sale now" feeling, I see it like this: It's only an issue for me if I (1) buy the game and haven't played it for some reason or (2) just bought the game at full price in the recent past and now it's dropped to crazy low prices.

For example: Am I pissed Soul Sacrifice is now $18 and I paid $36? Hell no, cause I got over 80+ hours of enjoyment out of it and played at the peak of the online community.
Now if I had bought Muramasa last week, as I almost did, and it was 1/2 off this week? I'd be livid.

So long as you get a good amount of play time out of it and it's not just sitting in your backlog, the fact that you got to play it at release and put a lot of time in it should offset the savings. :)

Thanks. This particular comment really warms me up :)

Yeah, I should know better than to be annoyed by comments such as those.

What's your 'reasonable' range?

And the FC, well, not really useless since you can play with your friends instead of random strangers, but yeahhhhh FC is so weird. I mean, saying my Nintendo ID is LaughingBanana just like my PSN is much, much easier than just 1234-5678-whatever numbers.

And... the bolded above: that is exactly the case with me for Dead or Alive 5+ and Muramasa Rebirth. Well, technically I did buy them a long while ago but I played it only for like, several hours combined soo.... I have a bad habit of buying games then not playing them, hahahaha (the same with Soul Sacrifice; I downloaded it at launch but I haven't even passed the 1st chapter yet, ouch!)

If 64gb is <$100... if I can get it for $85 or so, I'm in -- especially if I sell my 32 for like $40 or so (depending on what retail is for 32gb after 64 is available).

And yeah, that's the kind of stuff that would irk me, especially since there's no price matching on digital. :lol
Thank God I had a problem with the Muramasa translation originally and decided to wait for a bit. That paid off... I'm just hoping when I finish P4G platinum and pull the trigger on Dragon's Crown that I don't end up regretting that in the way some people are regrettin Muramasa. o_O
 
SLink MAX trophy is one playthrough (they don't carry) and sort of a pain, even with a guide -- I'm using one, but I'm already making several deviations and hoping they pay off (the guide was written for someone who hadn't maxed all the traits like courage, so I'm doing some things like skipping the jobs that increase those and trying to do nanako/dojima SLinks in their place... it's funny because I'm in June and nanako's SLink 7 was supposed to occur in October in the guide and I already have it. I've been holding off on reading books until I can get the hyper speed reading book again in August...)

Another side note I forgot to mention above -- since you carry money and Daidara's stock over to NG+, you can buy the same weapons/armor you had from the end of your last run IMMEDIATELY pretty much. I have MC/Chie/Yosuke/Yukiko all running with the top weapons i had and top armor. It's amusing like you wouldn't believe. Pretty much everything dies in 1 hit. ;)

--

This reminds me -- heckmanimation -- if you want to play P4G but don't feel the need to be challenged by the battles and don't like grinding, if you're not very far, start over and put it on easy or very easy. You'll thank me later -- then you too can be level 30 and flying through the dungeons in the blink of an eye.

Wait so if i already have one Slink maxed i'm fucked out of slinks trophy already ?
 
we need more details/source!

Whaaaa?

Make a thread about it in the front page, pronto, with all the juicy info! Seems like a rather big news--especially for Vita owners--to be announced in just a short post in this thread, don't you think? o_O

I hope for your sake that you are right.

Calm down guys , I just checked with a Sony insider on GAF and he said last time he checked, it was coming(unless his source got it wrong). Don't really feel like putting him on blast though but if a mod wants to know, they can.

Oh.

Well.

Sorry about that. But really, this is *big* news for Vita owners, so ah... forgive my excitement.
 
Famousmortimer told me that before E3. Honestly, given the wait an exclusive spinoff reusing console game assets would have been better.
 
Considering the scope of the game, I just wonder how well it would work on the vita.

Yeah, I wonder what kind of corner cuts we can expect, since there will be cutting corners, I assume. I can accept lower quality graphics, but hopefully they don't cut down areas or make the world smaller or like that, if that is possible.

Well yes, but honestly, at this point news like this is great nonetheless.
 
so... is there any solution to the annoying "vita turns on by itself" bug, that has happened to alot of vita´s (including mine), since the latest fw ..? it annoyes me alot because I just put my Vita on my nightstand every night after I´m finished playing (whatever game), and every night it lights up the entire bedroom (ok almost)..

how do I make it go away..?
 
I'm expecting it to look like shit tbh, isn't unreal garbo on vita?

Nope, unreal is just fine.

What....? Turning on by itself? You mean from an actual off condition, not sleep?

How is that even possible...?
 
Wow, seems like the firmware update (or Music Unlimited update?) deleted all my Music Unlimited settings, including all the offline music.
Sitting in a car for a 5-6 hour drive right now -.-
At least my 3G gets some usage now I guess.

Just wanted to warn other Music Unlimited subscribers.
By the way, it also stinks that I can't buy their new 1 year subscription sale because I am already subscribed...



Regarding Borderlands 2, I always wanted to try it although I had a dislike for Gearbox even before the whole Alien thing. A spin off would have been better though, port is gonna be very late.
But considering Borlderlands is a Take 2 property, if this rumor is true, there may be hope for Bioshock or even *gasp* a Rockstar game.
 
Shhh, it'll hear you!

I just... don't know how is it possible o_O

With the announcement for P4A2, why do I have a feeling Persona 3 _______ will be announced for the Vita soon?

If there is a persona title coming for Vita, I dearly wish it is gonna be an RPG. And at this point I don't even care if it's a port anymore. P3FES please! P3P was very disappointing.

Inb4 Toto "lo-reslands 2", amirite guys??
...guys? :(

Everyone plays around with Toto, hahaha.

How is that even possible...?

If I turn if off with the Power button (complete turn off) then it will not turn on by itself. But if you put it into sleep mode (or whatever you call pressing the power button once), then it will suddenly turn on the screen for 5-10 seconds. and there are no notfications happening at those times..
 
My Vita is hot, 3g has been disabled. WTF? Did anyone else had this happening to themselves?

Sitting in a car without AC and the sun is shinibg right ob the device. Still, it isn't that hot in the car, just warm.

Games still work.
 
That would be great! I'm still hesitated to buy P3P because of the lack of walking around and Anime cutscenes.

Yeah, precisely the reason why I found P3P to be disappointing. Many craved the inclusion of FeMC, and I can understand that, but I would honestly prefer for them to just scrap her in favor of being able to explore on foot and proper cutscenes--they set up the mood so greatly.

And it's not like FeMC is acknowledged by the series continuation anyways :P Hell, the event in the Answer already invalidates her presence :P

Ah. Huh, never had that happened to me. Weird.

It's funny that, it seems like with every firmware update, Vitas all around the world would sometimes act a little funky, with new funkiness introduced in new updates, hahaha.

Eh, can't say I have ever heard of this before. Maybe you just lost the 3G connection? Don't panic.
 
I don't have a Vita, but I just got into Shin Megami Tensei. Can you download the PSP versions of Persona 1/2/3 on the US PSN on Vita? If you can I might just buckle and buy a Vita with Persona 4 Golden and then download those games too...

Indeed you can.

A bit pricey though, for a team of old games.
