Hahaha, indeed! I'm sorry, everyone. Move along, nothing to see here...

Unless there are a couple people who will make the plunge with me. I'd like some assurance I'll have good people to party up with.

Holy crap, top of the page! Uh, uh...! The pressure's on... What should I recommend??

The Facebook app! It's awesome!

Doh.

Why anybody here talks about Need for Speed Most Wanted? Is it jut an average game? I've heard some good word of mouth about the game, any GAF advice?

NFS: Most Wanted is actually a really good game, more than Average. If you have any interest at all in Racing as a genre then you'll probably find a lot of joy there. I personally haven't played a racing game in earnest since Gran Turismo 3 and yet I found myself sucked into NFS: Most Wanted.

It's especially good if you have a lot of people on your PSN friends list who have played it already. Because the autolog populates high scores in game based on your friends.
 
I was looking for something to play on my Vita that is quick and easy to pick up in small increments, so I decided to see what the fuss was over and picked up Lumines: Electronic Symphony and man was I missing out! The game is addictive and I LOVE the music!

How's the game graphically? Does it runs at native resolution, is aliasing an issue, framerate drops...?

It looks good but its not native rez. The thing that bothered me the most was headlights coming at you are really pixelated. But its really playable and the same exact game as the PS3 (minus the DLC) its great and pretty damn fun. I loved it but did trade it in after beating it as I got it from PS+ on PS3.

There is zero framerate issues. However textures have a problem sometimes. Most especially concerning tread marks your tires make. Otherwise it's what you'd expect from a console port. It's not native rez (though it could be) and you'll see jaggies. But all in all it looks surprisingly good and is a direct port from the console version.
 
Rayman Origins so good!

Pretty much completed the first world. Got all electoons, passed all time trials, and did the tricky treasure level. So much fun!

Try Sound Shapes (with headphones). You are going to be amazed.
 
It sucks I can't by from Amazon due to region restrictions and best buy doesn't have codes

you just need to input a US Billing Address (just use Google's and you are set)
I've been doing that and it works :D

if not I guess I can help with if you PayPal me? XD

hahaha ok I definitely came in on the tail end of the conversation and was shocked that you would have been using a 4GB card. Also give me dat white vita

I somehow want a Black Vita instead
 
i was one level off from reaching hell today.

oh the humanity!

Man first time I got there I had 1 heart left, and it was a dark level. I twitch threw my torch down a chasm by accident 10 seconds in. Didn't last long and didn't make it back until the next time I made it all the way through and beat the game on a daily challenge.
Jetpack + Shotgun is insanely imba.

How are the controls for UMVC3 for the Vita?

Very good. The d-pad on the Vita is one of the best d-pads ever made. Beats out Neo Geo controllers but only because it's quiet. The controls are really responsive.
 
Has anyone heard about the new Rayman for vita?

Only article I've read on it was on el33tonline and it mentioned you couldn't zoom in or out and there were minor frame rate issues.
:(

Hopefully just a bad demo.

Edit: oh snaps! I'm a member now!
 
KZ Mercenary beta is just mindblowing. Been playing for a few days now and I'm hooked. Can't get over that I'm playing what basically amounts to portable KZ2.

It's my top 2 Vita racer after Wipeout 2048. The game has a great sense of speed and it controls really well. The open world is really fun to mess around in with lots of variety in the environment and a day/night cycle. It's completely sold me on picking up the PC version when it goes on sale again (and as I understand my progress will carry over thanks to Autolog).

Edit: oh snaps! I'm a member now!

Congrats man!
 
I'm not surprised. When I had a white PSP Go, I always thought the white looked better. But after a while of owning it, I wanted a black one. We're just unsatisfied bastards, I guess.

Where are all the tacky housing mixtures from the PSP days?
I've yet to see a white vita with black buttons or vice versa.
(it'll be great when custom housings come out should the Vita be an easy reassemble though)

That's really helpful I'll give it a try if not I'll maybe take you up on your PayPal offer haha

I've taken apart a Vita and it's really easy except for one thing: the OLED is fused to the front panel.

The rear touch pad is also held on with adhesive, but it's pretty easy to take off.
 
I love takin screen shots on the Vita.

Random internet dude - Vitahasnogames
Drizzt519 - /Uses Vita to snap screenshots of games on Vita, posts them
RID - well, vita sucks
Drizzt519 - Hmhmhm
 
So, I'm about to buy PSO2 through Play-Asia. But before I do it, let me get this straight. I can go online and earn trophies and everything with the Japanese version on a US PSN account, it'll just tie my Japanese PSO2 account to my US PSN account? Because if that's all there is to it, eff this noise. I'm sick of waiting for SEGA. I didn't get my degree in Japanese fo' nothin'. Although it's been five years since I've used the language. :

Anyone interested in getting it with me and doing a GAF quest crew? Let me know!
You have a degree in Japanese?
damn, mad respect for that.
 
is Dragons Crown fun solo? I know Soul Sacrifice isn't as good solo as it is multi, what about DC?
 
Is there a list of the best PSP games to download and play on my Vita?

Only issue is, I'm stuck with the Australia PS Store, I'm not sure if it differs too much from EU/US stores at all.

But I'd like some more PSP stuff.

What I have so far:

- Monster Hunter Freedom Unite
- YS Seven
- The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky
- Final Fantasy IV: The Complete Edition
- Lunar: Silver Star Harmony
- Power Stone Collection

Any recommendations - RPG, Racing, Fighting etc. As long as they're good! :D

One of the main reasons I ditched my Australian PSN ID was the store missing quite a few PSP titles I wanted to play on my Vita, namely God Eater Burst and Fate/Extra.

It's also missing the other Ys games. :\
 
Growlanser Wayfarer of Time
Persona 2: Innocent Sin
Riviera
Ys Oath in Felghana
Tekken 5 DR and Street Fighter 3 Alpha Max have good SP content.

No clue if they are AUS store.
 
Cod bundle used + 32gb for 199$ good deal? What games will i get on psn +

That is a very good deal, despite COD not being great. PS+ varies, but be sure to try out the Killzone beta that's on there right now!

How does Peacewalker look and play on the vita?

It looks okay, and plays better thanks to dual sticks.

The framerate is still super low though. It's hard for me to play it for that reason, honestly.

Whats the best way to get a non-aus id? And what are the drawbacks?

Will have a look. Pretty short Oath of Felghana isn't on the Aus store, but I know Growlanser is and looks ok.
