I wish i had known fez was coming to vita, i may have waited. I bought it during the steam summer sale. Its a good game with a great soundtrack, those who havent played it should get it when it comes out. Really hope fez 2 truly isnt canceled.

Games galore. Will be broke
PC game port. They probably want to keep the original's resolution without mucking with it too much.
That's a shame.
Not sure if there's anyone else out there like me, but after SCEE got Velocity Ultra put on ps+ on release day and SCEA bumbled around with approving the release of the game for about 8 weeks, my interest had waned and I figured I'd wait for it to show up on NA PS+.
Luckily I won a code though.
that was one code I really wanted to win meh :/
but hmm it would be nice if SCEA released Ultra with a PS+ discount :/ I don't remember that happening :/

I love playing Jamestown co-op w/ friends on my PC. It's a difficult game; I'd love it on the Vita.

My Vita's been acting funny lately -- sometimes I don't get them until much later... I did see the party invite too... the last one I remember seeing though was "stop playing P4G and hop on Killzone!" :lol
Alright nerds, it's time to play the voting game again.
From today until the 29th, anyone interested in voting for next month's Game of the Month must PM me with their top 5 choices, in order of preference. If you don't provide an order, I'll assume that the order you list them in is the preference. Each game gets points in order of preference, from 5 to 1, and the game with the most points is the winner. Once a game has been chosen, I'll randomly ask someone who voted for the game as #1 to provide a short write-up for it like the one in this and the previous threads.
Criteria for voting:
CHOOSE WISELY.

Criteria for voting:
- Games voted for must have been released at any time prior to the month the thread is for, including previous months.
- Only games released up to the 27th, the last PSN update day in August, will count for this round of voting.
- Retail, Digital only and PlayStation Mobile games are all valid.
CHOOSE WISELY.
I always have a lingering fear that mashing Vita buttons too hard/often while playing fighting games would cause my buttons to die faster. It's probably the result of having the shoulder buttons of three DSes breaking on me. Only reason why I don't buy fighting games on the Vita.

What the hell do you do to your DS3s?
I can't remember the last time anything other than an analog stick started acting up on me...

Three DSses, not DS3s. :v
Not as bad as that Everybody's Gone To Rapture thread.

I can't imagine that touching doors/chests, treasure, runes, the food minigame, and some of the other stuff in Dragon's Crown would be as intuitive and enjoyable with an r stick cursor. I'd never wanna see anybody denied the game, but it could have been an exclusive to end all exclusives had it gone that way.
what's happening there? what are people so unhappy about?
the only reason why I hesitate getting fighters for my Vita is that they have a trend/tendency to be added to the PS+ IGC :/
Go to settings and check if your notifications are on.

Also Vanwinkle I sent you one too for Killzone. I did sent Noi once but he never took it.

Still.
Besides, the #1 rule of fighting games:
DO NOT MASH. NEVER MASH. Unless it's UMvC3 and you're trying for that bit of extra damage on a super move.
My notifications were off for awhile, I was hoping that the screen-on bug would go away...

People are mad that indies are "betraying their fanbases" by making PS4 games even though they made games that were popular on PC in the past.
From PC to PS4 exclusive. http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=658373
Check out post 16, it's worth a laugh.
I actually use the right stick more than I do touching things in Dragon's Crown, partially because my hand is already in a position to move the stick naturally where I have to move the whole hand if I want to touch the screen. Plus with the new patch that automatically uncovers treasure just by "hovering" over it with the cursor rather than click, it's even easier to use.

Never happened to me personally just turn off your notifications for when friends are online and your set.
I'm going to set up another game tonight and zero do you want to come?

Yeah, I'll play... what time?

Do we have any clue how big Spelunky is going to be? I'm trying to play musical bubbles on my card...

First, they should launch TTT2...and then show Tekken Revolution on it. I played the fuck out of the Tekken games on the PSP, I'd do the same for TTT2.
Also, fighting games are meant to be played on the stick.
However, fighting games is great on the go for practice and training. I could just spent hours fighting a dummy just to perfect combos.That practice really isn't going to transfer back over to the console/pc if you go from pad to stick though since bnbs should be mapped to muscle memory.Also, fighting games are meant to be played on the stick.
The vita fighter that made the worst transition from stick -> pad though IMO is DoA5+. The game is filled with diagonals in all 4 directions, which are pretty finicky on the vita's clicky dpad.

Sure, but that thread is about the same developers making a new game on a different platform, right?
That kind of thing happens all the time.

Years of practicing on the PSP and moving back to the stick have trained me well on the timing of the combos. Double tapping helps on the stick buttons.
UMvC3 actually happens to be my favorite fighting game despite how awful I am at it. The weird thing is that the DSes were in perfect condition except for the shoulder buttons.
...Nintendo handhelds made me paranoid. D:
I'm running a 90/10 build and still not completely sure about my internet connection, but send me an invite if you see me on SS later.

So happy to see people finally getting in. Almost like getting in again for me too. Dragon's Crown, Guacamelee and the Killzone beta has reinvigorated my love for this handheld.

...Since when we can't write Animal Crossing: New Leaf in this thread? who made that rule? Noi? I've always know he will take our freedom.
anyway yeah Atelier Totori plus is good but really short compared to other games in the genre(unless you are going for all ending and everything).
also Totooria is an awesome name.

best. decision. ever.

P4G platinum attained. What a pain in the ass that last trophy was.
Game was great, but I've definitely had my fill of it... off the memory card it goes.
Caved and bought DoA5+ on a whim -- hopefully it's worth $10 to screw around with.
Also kicked MGS HD and UMvC3 off my card (Esoteric is going to hate me) so I could more comfortably fit DoA5+ and make some room for DJMAX.
Worst case, I can kick MK9 or NGS+ off to make room for Killzone. Hoping I have over 1gb free after this so I can cave and buy Dragon's Crown (and maybe still have enough room for Spelunky on Tuesday... really hoping it's small).
