Just recently?
Are you talking about the backer poll? That was sent out a month or so ago.
If it's something else though... :O
EDIT:
Nope. I keep asking but in the end, only PC screens were posted for the updates. :/
:/
so if it's one of the announcements you are done? even if there are other Vita surprises you might want?
this mean if they announced it then it's over even if there are few megatons after it?
you really hate this IP I guess.

Debunked apparently. A bit surprised, it made sense and all.

Why would you expect him to confirm?
The onky Zipper game I liked is Unit 13.
I don't know. If they were going to actually announce it, I doubt it would be through a retailer leak and a twitter post.
there is also Shahid secret non port non indie game he was super hyping before E3.
Which he never said that it was going to be announced at E3 or Gamescom

I just hate the "one more shot" people always want to give the Vita. "E3 didn't deliver, Gamescom should be good. Gamescom had nothing, wait for TGS." It's a never ending cycle while others on the outside are either just laughing or shaking their heads at how awful the Vita really is doing. I have to draw the line somewhere and stop giving it the benefit of the doubt. If all Sony can do is get another Call of Duty out on the platform... that's it and make it a direct competitor of their own FPS(that's already competing with Killzone Shadow Fall), then I know Sony has given up.

I honestly don't understand the people that talk about being 'out.'
You obviously already own a Vita, how much harm is there in keeping it around? It's a nice and useful/handy piece of kit, and it has games, and it is slowly building up a library.
There WILL be games to play on it, even if it takes a while.

And I bet they have a huge backlog anyways!
With Atelier Meruru+, Curry RPG, Panopticon, Demon Gaze and Project Diva F2 (import), I'm pretty much set. It'd be nice to see more localizations though (like Mind=Zero and Chronos Materia, maybe)
I just died a little bit.
Can we have a little bony list in anticipation for Gamescom?
It would be fun to see whats on the plate...
Rumored Games:
*Borderlands 2
*The Amazing Spiderman
*CoD: Ghosts (Somewhat debunked)
*Sly Collection
*Ass Creed : Rising Phoenix
*Super Secret Shahid Non Port Game that will make us faint and lose a rib but wasn't ever confirmed to be shown at E3 or Gamescom so who knows when we'll ever see the shit
Possibly Likely:
*God Eater 2 Localization
*Gravity Rush 2
*Bend's New Game
All but Confirmed:
*Vita Price Drop
*New Vita Memory Card Tier
*Killzone Merc Info
*Tearaway Info
*Vita Pets Info (lmao)
*Freedom Wars Info
*New Indie Announcements
Please feel free to add more suggestions! I say as a little fun, we should print the full list and cross em out as Gamescom goes on this week!!

I don't particularly know the full context, but this post from the Crazy Buttocks thread seems to indicate a possible Borderlands Vita:
Not personally expecting anything, but that would be fucking sweet.
Edit: oh, you already mentioned that in your post haha.

I didn't say I was getting rid of it, it means "I'm done giving a shit about this thing everyone else has given up on."

Oi, I got a beta code for Killzone: Mercenary I can't use. First quote gets it.

i'm pretty sure borderlands is 100% happening... back in the spring didn't Famous say a "B" game was coming from a third party franchise....
i think everyone wrote that off once batman was announced but i think FM was referring to borderlands.

US code? If so, I'll take it
I just got home from vacation and I haven't been able to read the forums.
Question about the KZ:M beta...everyone that has PS+ will be able to download the beta when the store updates this week or would we still need a code?

So i brought Soul Sacrifice and Touch My Katamari. Katamari is pretty decent for me. The last one i played was on PS2. I haven't touched it on PS3/360. So it was kinda exciting to finally play a new entry after a long time.
I played the demo of Soul Sacrifice and found it a pretty decent game. Can't resist it at that price. Going to get New Little King Story and DOA5+ next week. Giant Bomb Quick Look for NLKS looked pretty fun to me and i haven't played the Wii original while DOA5+ demo had already sold me the game. Seems like a fun portable 3D fighter until we get Tekken on VITA.

I doubt we'll hear anything about it in the west until it's closer to release in Japan. Anyway, I have a faint hope we'll hear something about the whole #jrpgvita thing... Tales localization or somesuch. There's also San Diego's handheld team, who have been MIA since Modnation Racers Vita. They were supposed to take over Ruin, but apparently that never happened... so maybe we'll get lucky.
It's good, but not too different from the PS3 version at all, aside from portability and touch screen controls for changing weapons or items.
Yeah, you may be right. I see some localizations happening though, I really cant put my finger on which ones though. I can only hope its PSO2

MGS 2 = 60 FPS
MGS 3 = 30 FPS
Sadly, both are not native res VITA games.
I haven't played them but heard that they are pretty solid ports.

I tried playing MGS2 but that thing is so ancient in it's controls it's hardly playable.
Haven't checked MGS3 yet.

So damn good. Did you play the PS3/360 version? They took a few things out like the nightmare and The Snake vs. Monkey shit in Snake Eater, and the skateboarding is gone from MGS2(who honestly cares about those?), but you can still play the original Metal Gear and Metal Gear 2 in the Snake Eater menu, which is fucking awesome.
MGS2 and 3 look fantastic on the OLED. Aiming in first person view is kinda hard at first, especially in Snake Eater since everything is so small, but if it ever get's too difficult you can just use transfarring to play on the big screen (if you own the PS3 version) The touchscreen/pad implementation is pretty slick too.
Definitely worth buying.
Edit: Being able to take screenshots is also a huge plus for me
Those HD armpit Hairs
I don't get this. The collection was my first time playing both MGS2 and MGS3 and the controls felt fine to me. They felt pretty great for old games, actually. I know the touch screen selection is a new thing but everything else was fine.

It's no biggie, but I was sad about the loss of MGS3 Subsistence's disc 2 Demo Theater when the HD collection released. They were hilarious. What I assume happened, was that the cutscenes there were recorded into FMV after being run in-engine, so there was no real way to upscale them direct from the retail disc, as per Bluepoint's method.
Not me. I'd be overjoyed to get RE4 and mf'ing Revelations HD like we should have already.

RE: Revolution was supposed to be the handheld RE title and it was released on 3DS.Still waiting for Resident Evil PSP
I still can't understand why Capcom didn't release RE: R for VITA since it runs on MT Framework Mobile, which is already working perfectly fine on VITA with titles like UMVC 3 and SFxT. Their loss IMO.
Even though I don't give a damn about CoD, I'll concur that that Tweet is worth nothing. He's basically just saying "We haven't announced anything but Angry Birds Star Wars for Vita atm" which is hardly a 100% confirmation of "no CoD for Vita", in fact usually that kind of speak is used when something is coming but not officially announced yet.
At this point, it's on everything but the Vita.
What's the word on Rocketbirds? My backlog of Vita stuff has been whittled down to Persona 4, Muramasa, and Dragon's Crown, and I'm looking for something that's a little less involved to blow through in between heavy gaming sessions. Besides Machinarium, I think I've purchased and completed every other game I could possibly be interested in. Except, maybe, for Rocketbirds. Is it worth $10? Is it a GOOD game, or just sort of a tepid distraction?
