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

Was looking foward to picking up Little King's story, yet the sale is NA only, seven hells! does Europe ever get good sales on this thing?

Missed out on Persona 4 sale aswell.
 
Something really weird happened when I DLed the Orgarhythm demo. "XSEED" flashes on my screen and ... this is the English language version of my game. Does it auto detect region and use the localized version if you're in the US? Really crazy.
 
Might be a dumb question, but does anyone move their memory stick between tow Vitas? I have a Red and blue Vita and want to make use of both. Just need to figure out the best way to do that.
 
Hello fellow GAFfers and Vita-Bros, I've been out of town for the last 10-12 days so I have no idea if there was some Vita-News, need to catch up.

I took my Vita and it's funny to see how much I can progress when I don't have a Internet Connection.

I finished:

- Call of Duty Declassified. A family friend had it so I borrow it. The game is very short, you also have Time Trials and some Wave Maps. Didn't try the Multiplayer since it was Impossible.

- Resistance Burning Skies. This is game is a little better than I was expecting to be honest, but it also felt very short. It seems I have only one Trophy to get them all but I need an Online Pass which means It's impossible to have 100% so far. That's a shame.

- Unit 13. The missions are interesting but once you get to see you are repeating the maps with little variation gets a bit boring. I didn't like at all those missions with the Timer, because, I like to take my time with my games.

My most wanted games on the Vita right now are the FF HD Versions for nostalgia sake but I guess there was no news and if there was, I need to catch up!

Spelunky gets a release next week (in Europe too) and not much else happened...I got my Dragons Crown Import today. ;)

Big news should come this evening from Gamescom.

some new indies, multis, ports
A pair of big exclusive games
one of them will be open world

for the moment I'm blocked at the first box (outside of tutorial) because I'm not able to tap my screen 99 times in 30s (not sut if it's really good for screen too lol)

Hahaha, same here. When the 90 taps appear i was wtf xDD
My gf could only laugh at me tapping furiously and then quit myself. XD

I don't have the game, but you know that the screen is multitouch so you can use 4 fingers right? ;)
 
I'll channel some good old gaf pessimism:
  • Indie montage of PC ports
  • On stage PlayStation Vita pets demo
  • No new memory card sizes
  • Finish with Killzone Mercenary trailer
  • Price increase on current memory cards

The thing is you really have to keep your Vita stable to not "lose" the box. It's hard to do by holding the big Vita with 1 hand and tapping it like a crazy man with the other one lol. IMO the game would have been 10 times better without the AR aspect.

Keep vita with one hand on its back(two finger on the left of the camera and other two on the right, the thumb down) and then use four finger of the other hand, it should be stable enough.
 
Five and a half hours until the megaton Vita news we've all been waiting for:


Rick Dangerous 2 qHD remake. Complete with 'space shit' typo in the digital manual.

That'd be like 9 PM over here. I'll take visual novels and bigger memory card announcements please~

I had trouble with that box initially, but I zoomed right in (by taking the vita as close as I could) and held in it my left hand while I spammed as fast as I could with the fingers on my rights hand in a finger drumming fashion. I was so close at points that I cut through the surface graphic but the touches were still counting
 
HOLY SHIT YES

One of the codes I had lying around in my PS Home code sheet was a KZ:M code. It wasn't labeled and I mistook 6s for Gs but after some trial and error it went though. I shot out of my chair I was so happy haha

Also, the second I redeemed the code my PS3 turned itself on. I didn't know that was a thing.

One big port for 2013 annouced (Borderlands or Cod or Bioshock)
New yearly PSN+ games (AC3 liberation+ LBP)
some more ps3 sony ports
PSM going to cover more countries
 
Think it depends on when your console is set to auto-update/install.

I had no idea I had my PS3 set to do that lol. I rarely even use the thing

I hope they announce a 64GB or 128GB card today. I'm still using a 4GB and I just had to delete Jet Set Radio to make room for Killzone.
 
I just got an email saying that HD Adventures of Rotating Octopus Character and Floating Cloud God Saves the Pilgrims are both coming to North America next week! They should be $2.99 and $3.49, respectively.

We had better be getting larger memory cards today...I'm really not liking the constant deleting and game-juggling I have to do in order to handle all the games.

  • Indie montage of PC ports

Haha, that would be the ultimate act of trolling. :D Like "Screw you guys, the Vita's too awesome, you don't even deserve it - here's a price hike".

I'll be doing the same with Gravity Rush, I'm never going play it but I can always re-download it again should the desire take me
 
I really don't think we'll see that much Vita stuff. I think it'll stay at the same price but it will now come bundled with a memory card, and they will announce a few new games but not a lot.

First four points could actually happen. In fact, if they did, I wouldn't be surprised. My expectations are as low as this right now.
 
My vita expectations for E3 were at an all time low, was expecting one new game (not port) we got GOW HD.

I think I'd be happy with bigger memory cards announced.
 
Are we certain they have a dedicated handheld team, and not a kart racer team? The people that did Modnation Racers: Road Trip could have easily been the people that made Modnation Racers on PSP, and helped United Front Games make the PS3 game. Which means they could have then become the people that helped UFG with LittleBigPlanet Karting.
Having just looked up the credits, San Diego's contribution to LBP Karting was a small team and the majority seemed to be online/networking guys (and the studio has done support work on a bunch of Move titles in the past in addition to their internally developed titles)... So, I dare say we're back at my basic point - San Diego has a full development team unaccounted for. Their most recent title was for the Vita, and I don't think it's unreasonable to hope they're working on another one for the platform and that we might hear about it soon.
 
Phew, just got done typing up the KickBeat OT. Learned a few extra tidbits about the game that I didn't know about before (like that it has multiplayer!) along the way. My body is ready.
 
-Price cut, 199 with 8GB memory card.
-8/16/32/64 memory cards. $15/30/45/60 are new prices, unsure of conversion for Euro/GBP/
-KZM Bundle, Tearaway Bundle. Each with 8/16 memory card
-CoD Ghosts
-Big push for remote play w/ PS4
-A few new game announcements, including probably Shahid's big game he saw (probs Ubisoft something)

So is this rumour, wishes or fact?

EDIT: Guessing speculation, as I scrolled up to see similar fun.
