I wish that they would allow you to emulate PSP games at the Vita's native resolution. PPSSPP does it just fine on my less powerful Android tablet. Won't ever happen though... Why don't any of the big three give more options for emulated games? Vulnerability maybe?
You can manually adjust the resolution yourself for PSP games.
No you can't. That's only for PS1 games.
The game reminds me a lot PSX/Saturn game Dragon Ball Z: Legends.
So it looks like atleast the PS4 version of Minecraft will be out come launch of the PS4. Im curious if they are planning a day, and date release for all three versions of the game. Having a date for it would be awesome, thats one of my only complaints about the indie side as most of the time it seems that dates just come up out of the blue.
I cant wait for Starbound, but who knows when it will come out. Just the PC version has taken quite along time. Kickbeat was announced for summer last year release, but is just now coming out in a few weeks.

No idea what im looking at, is this a MONHON DBZ semi clone?

Looks fun. It's basically like some of the 3D PS2 DBZ games just with more fighters at once. I dig. Any info on release date? Confirmed for 2013 at least?

My girlfriend has no desire to play Unit 13, so I have a code to give away.
Anyone want it?
(first reply gets it I guess)

it's yours! check your PM!
Got it, thanks!
Edit: I have a Killzone Mercenary (US) beta code for a non-PS+ subscriber who wants a head start before the beta goes public next Tuesday.

Strange. Very rarely do I fail to get in to a game. Every now and then it will say something about me being kicked because of a connection error or something, but it's rare and when it does happen I can get in a match the very next time I try.

I was playing my Vita and some dude asked me what game I was playing. He had never heard of Wipeout... :l
thats weird, NAT type?

Got it, thanks!

also, what's so great about Football Manager? Sounds like a chore.
Lol surprised he did not think it was a game based on the TV show. Wipeout has always been pretty nitch though so its difficult to fault him.
If you dont feel pasion for the sport dont bother

So much pessimism in Vita threads. It's like people are going out of their way to dismiss games that get announced for it :/
Many are good, but most are ports/indies. There's a lot of people not interested in either.
Yeah, you can tell some already have there minds made up. Without the huge "AAA" names, they will continue to dismiss.
But honestly, 98% of the time, I play my Vita in my house. WIth remote play, that is as good to me as basically anything. Just saying.
Taste has nothing to do with it, playing a fighting game with an analog stick is the wrong way to play, period. Sorry if it sounds harsh, but it's a fact, not an opinion.

I love soccer ('merica). I play it IRL and I play FIFA. I just don't understand why Football Manager is appealing; I wasn't being malicious.

Goal posts are always moved when it comes to this console. People do it with the Wii U too and they'll probably end up doing it with the Xbone as well.
Indie games and ports that are perfectly fine on other platforms "don't count" on Vita (and similar consoles). If it got AAA game announcements, they wouldn't "count" for some other reason, too. Literally cannot win.
That's GAF, bro. Some people here really can't give the Vita a lick of credit, for whatever reason.
I guess they want to have a console to bully out of insecurity or validation or whatever.

About to pick up my Vita tonight. What games should I get?
I love games like Bastion, Uncharted (getting golden abyss through PS+), old school games like Final Fantasy 9 and games like Sly Cooper. I'm a big adventure game fan, I like having a big world to explore. NOT a big fan of puzzle games or sports games.

No CAPCOM, No EA, No Activision, No SEGA, No Squenix, No Namco, Nor Bandai, people buy consoles for that companies games, not for "John Smith" indie developer who made that 16 bit game in their house funded with kickstarter and nobody cares about and spend high profile console that can run Killzone Mercenary level games.

The ridiculously good retail lineup in the Vita's first year proves this. Whilst the Vita may not be getting loads of big retail titles now, it sure as hell was in the Vita's first year but people still didn't want to know even back then. They didn't want to know back then and if Sony went all guns blazing with big retail Vita game now those people still wouldn't want to know.
Oh come on, the people disappointed in the indies on vita aren't the same people praising them on other platforms. Not everyone enjoys indies to the same extent and a console needs a balance of both indies and "AAA" games (that aren't ports).
I enjoy the vita as much as the next guy in here but you can't not understand why some people aren't satisfied with what they saw at gamescom.
How about 2D side-scrolling game?

good, make sure you grab gravity rush and wipeout from ps+ too.
you should get as large a memory card as you can afford -- Gamestop has a good deal on 32gb cards going on now, you'll need it with ps+.
Games off the top of my head:
P4G if you like JRPGs.
Rayman origins is a phenomenal 2D platformer.
Guacamelee is a fantastic Metroidvania style game.
Super Stardust Delta is a great twin stick shooter.
Muramasa Rebirth is a 2D platformer hack and slash (almost an action game but without some of the depth -- think the Dishwasher games from XBL)
Dragon's Crown get's good word of mouth as a 2D brawler RPG (like the old Mystara Capcom D&D games)
Sly 4 is a pretty good Sly game, much like Sly 3 (I think I liked it better) but it's best, IMO, if you can use the cross save function with PS3 for some stuff.
Hotline Miami is fantastic (top down twitch action game, very oldschool...)
Most of the fighting game ports are fantastic, UMvC3 and DoA5+ are on sale this week for PS+
Stealth, Inc. is a good 2D puzzle platformer (not a straight puzzle game though)
Spelunky is coming next week.

Hey VitaCats. Got $22 on my PSN to use, anything in particular you guys are feeling I should buy/save for?
What I'm looking at right now:
- Super Stardust
- Stealth Inc
- Mutant Blobs Attack
- Metal Gear Solid HD Collection
- Jak and Daxter maybe? I heard a lot of bad things, I've just never played the series.
Just looking for suggestions, maybe there was a gem I missed. I'm up for most things, looking to get a lot of content mostly I guess. Thanks!
(Oh yeah PS I know you guys are really into Spelunky, it just isn't interesting me too much)

Looking at the current sales, I'm interested in DOA5+ and Guacamelee. Is there a good chance that these games will become part of the ICG in the near future? Since getting PS+ I've been hesitant in getting games due to fear that they'll be the only free game for Vita for a month.
yeah, i play too irl and Pes haha
i do follow all the biggest European leagues so its fun to play football manager.
They said Muramasa is a little repetitive, you have to backtrack quite a lot. But I haven't played the game, is only available in the US. I didn't know anything about Sound Shapes.
I don't like Football so much, but i'm happy if you enjoy it. I know i won't like every game in the platform. Although I was a little disapointed. Not angry, but disapointed.
Well, let's change the subject. There are some new Vitabros here so they need a warm welcome! If we start discussing about the Vita doomed thing we will scare them!
So welcome new Vitabros. Seems the Walmart deal was huge.
Would not count because then people would bitch that the game should be a PS4 game.
Truth is outside of maybe Bastion, Mark of the Ninja, and a few WRPGs (other then Borderlands) just about every game I really wanted on Vita was announced yesterday, and few awesome looking surprises like HellDivers. Ill admit though that in my case when Sony said console quality on the go, what I really wanted to begin with was PSN games more then the stuff like Skyrim.
In some cases it could work well, I could see BL2 being good for quick burst gaming. I largely just feel that I find allot more time to spend on stuff like Hotline, Stealth Inc, Rogue Legacy etc on a handheld. Stuff like GOW, Uncharted, and the like I would rather have on my big screen.

Spel- DAMMIT.
Well first of all - DO NOT GET JAK AND DAXTER COLLECTION.
I have it and the first game runs decently well, but oh my GOD Jak 2 and 3 suck. I made a long post about it here.
Super Stardust is absolutely fantastic, get that for sure. Have you played Hotline Miami? If not get that too, absolutely awesome game. Mutant Blogs is on sale for like $2 right now isn't it? Good game, no reason not to get it at that price.
Metal Gear Solid HD Collection on Vita is a very good port too. I Recommend that, especially if you haven't played them before.

Ahh thank you for saving me from Jak and Daxter haha and of course I played Hotline Miami! Great game. Just discovered Super Stardust and it looks like a blast. No clue how it flew under my radar. Never played ANY MGS game so I kinda wanted to give it a try.

Does Super Stardust + MGS collection work then? Or does that go above what's in your PSN wallet?
JStein0222

I can add $5 haha no worries. The only other game I'm leaning towards is Stealth Inc right now I think. I'll have to check out some MGS reviews or something

Get on that. And if you don't plan to pick up 1 or 4 to play in release order, just play 3 first on the collection.
Some hands-on with Vita games.
