Ah, apologies. I just saw a £ sign in a previous post and presumed you were. Don't you have a local sales site like it you can check? People receive them as unwanted presents quite a lot it seems, and they just sell them off without knowing their true value.

Thing is, if they put the bar too high they end up like Microsoft, getting lots of criticism for being unwelcoming to developers. And in this case, the developer certainly had a solid list of credits to point to:
Issues with the game probably stem more from the same place as other disappointing Kickstarter projects - the team promised too much, and asked for too little time and money.
Any word on what games will replace the "evergreen" Uncharted GA and Gravity rush, for the EU PSN?
The time they take to announce them is killing me. Not that I need the games now, but just that it's still unknown(to me at least, but there seems to be lots of comments under the blog posts, so there could be some hint about what's next)... I mean, it pretty big milestone, with 1 year of PS+ for the Vita and they immediately used two of the best games for the system to promote the service. And I really wonder what is there, that they have a good chance on putting it for free for a whole year and be at least as good as Uncharted and Gravity rush...

Everything here is more expensive. It's way cheaper to just import, and we never get any good deals. We actually had a Vita price drop but it still ends up being more expensive here.
A lot of people were wondering the same, but a reply on the PSN blog claimed they had no intention of changing the games any time soon

US PS Store Update is live:
http://blog.us.playstation.com/2013/10/22/playstation-store-update-308/
Only new stuff that was not announced yesterday is that both Corpse Party and Corpse Party BoS are on sale at half the price. Definitely worth it if you don't have them yet. Look great on the Vita.

Awesome, time to finally buy BoS!

Yeah, I figured that out eventually... but it didn't help so much once the transformation/replacement happened.
The defense one makes your defense go up and your attack go down.
BoS?

Corpse Party: Book of Shadows for PSP.

I kinda thought that but glossed over it in all the sale items.
Those are just kind of graphic novels without a lot of heavy gameplay, right?

Right! I haven't played BoS, but the first game is great and controls like a 16bit RPG without the battle system and menus. Killer sound design with headphones too.

I can't seem to find any information about a UK/Euro release
Guess i'll have to import. For some reason I really want that collectors edition with the bib, spoon and plate. Damn you impulsive urges!
Nice job!
I looked through the OT thread and didn't see anyone claim the Tearaway OT yet. Someone here is going to step up, right?

It's possible Aksys will do a surprise digital only release like they did with Muramasa.I can't seem to find any information about a UK/Euro release
Yup, anything with a 3.5mm jack will work fine - or you could get a bluetooth set if you want to spend. I use the Pulse Elite with the cable, or a pair of Bose in ear jobs that I use for my iPhone.

Maybe there will be a download release, who knows.
I can't see myself getting a collectors edition ;__; I don't think I want to stock up on baby stuff when I'm 20 and single. lol

Downloading Hotline Miami atm. Tell me VItaGaf is it good or is it just hype?

Gah. Screw you spirit prison. 
Just started playing hotline myself. Was afraid it was all hype or a really hard game (heard you'd die alot), but it really delivers imo. Nice pick up and play gameplay and it's fast too, so dieing doesn't really matter. Just press x (I think
) and run in a second time. Love it!Half minute hero 2 news coming soon!
Awesome, i guess i have to import :/Sorcery Saga: Curse of the Great Curry God comes out on December 10th!!!

Native res, 30 fps on both platforms. 1.3gb download on Vita.

For those of you who won't be able to play the beta, I'll be recording it from start to finish very soon.
Nothing was said, only to expect hmh2 news soon.
Ok, I'm in - just ordered an import Vita 2000 (blue/white model.) I have been playing my 3ds constantly, and leaving my PS3 to collect dust, so it was time for another portable gaming system! I have PS+, so I have a nice collection to start with (member since June.) I can't wait to get it and start playing - now maybe I can catch up on all those PSP j-rpgs I missed due to basically disliking the analog nubs on my PSP? Can't wait for the new Ys game as well. All my friends think I'm crazy, but I don't care - I think the Vita is going to make it, at least for the games I enjoy!

So Corpse Party and Book of Shadows is a series of horror adventure games? If so, I'm in 100%.
Who said that? Marvelous USA? If so, it's PC or 360 and likely not PSP.

They said on the PS Blog that they've included the bug-fixing patch Japan got.
Welcome! You will love VitaGAF, easily the best place on this great forum.
Vita is struggling in several aspects, but as for jrpgs, I think you won't find a better platform. Some of the best titles of this and past generations can be played on it and they look and play great for the most part. Also, if you like FF to some degree, Vita is the console to have.
The first one is horror adventure (like old school Zelda or 16bit jrpgs but without menus) while the second one is a visual novel. You should take a look at the trailers for both on YouTube to get a better feel for how each plays. Btw, both are extremely gruesome games. Not for everyone but great games still if you like the genre.
Edit: For those buying any of the Corpse Party Titles just now, you HAVE to play them with headphones. Easily on of the games with best sound effects of the PSP.
Been desperate for a Vita for a while but price was an issue. Thanks to the Argos sale that a kind GAFer posted on here I now am a proud owner of a Vita.
Early impressions are it's gorgeous and I'm enjoying it so far. Just downloaded all the PS+ games I've collected and now will look on the store for PSP games I've missed.
Looking forward to the recommendations from GAF for games and will visit this thread alot more now

Welcome!
You should be set with your PS+ games for a while, but let us know which kinds of games you like so we can give you better recommendations.
But regardless of what you like, get P4G. It is THAT awesome.

If you're not jonesing for any particular game, PS+ and P4G will be all you need for the first few months.

Does anyone else has a Starlight Inception code for Vita? Would love to try it out.
Has anyone bought Lego Marvel for Vita? Any impressions?
Watched a short gameplay video on Youtube, and this is what I got from it- graphics looked better than other Lego games on the Vita, but it is level based with an isometric view, it lacks character swapping, lacks an openworld, seems to lack a hub, and looks to pretty much be a Lego beat 'em up, which can be controlled entirely with the touch screen.
Here's the video in question- http://youtu.be/5JYprSjdPc4
