Vita PSN Game & Service Thread | October 2013 | Ver 2000, Batman and some Angry Birds

It's not the visual aesthetic that bothers me; I actually think the game looks very endearing. It's more the fact that it's about an hour long, and requires nothing more of the player than walking around and taking in the sights. I like walking around and taking in the sights in video games (Journey, Unfinished Swan, Dear Esther), but ten quid is a bit extortionate!

Did you play the original Proteus? It's quite a different experience than Dear Esther, especially on Vita.
 
Maaaan Skyzard... you just had to mention Mario 64 in that Tearaway thread of yours huh. Now all we get is just bickering back and forth instead of real discussions about the game... what a shame :\

I couldn't imagine it any other way.

More people will want to give it a chance, maybe the Vita a chance too. The comparisons are pretty obvious too, just hellbent fans voicing their annoyance at memories from their side being used to promote a fantastic game, which really did strike me hard with the m64 vibe. Worth the tradeoff for me, sorry if you were a casualty :'( .

Off the top of my head...
- A-Men 2 (Nov. 5)
- Castlestorm (Nov. 5)
- Injustice (Nov. 12)
- Flower (Nov. 15)
- Amazing Spider-man (Nov. 19)
- Tearaway (Nov. 22)

Possibly Minecraft as well? It's coming, but I don't know if it coincides with its PS4 release or not.

That's a good memory.
 
come on, it's expensive to make those graphics that look like something I made in MS Paint when I was 6
I'm going to assume you're being facetious here.

I still don't understand the appeal of the PS4 at launch. Your Vita deserves better... but hey, have fun. :P
Shiny new stuff, along with a new Killzone and Resogun are enough for me. The Vita will still see plenty of love though of course. :)
 
Is the online in Divekick still horrible? Stopped playing fairly quickly because of how long it took to find matches. Such a shame because the actual gameplay is so damn good!

There was a patch and when I tried it, it was better. I am not really sure though, haven't really played it for a while because of all the fall releases.

Going for Blackgate, I hope it's good/decent.

I think for many people PS4 lineup is just bad but the weird thing about PS4(and Xbox One) is there is nothing at all that say "next gen experience" like at all, even PS3 got Motorstorm which was kinda unique and did stuff never before seen on PS2 (like the mud tech abd huge tracks), it just feel weird as every new gen used to have that new game that clearly do new stuff but there is nothing like that this time.
 
i thought sine mora was free this month...

pending today's update

speaking of which - anyone got a nice textless sine mora vita wallpaper??

edit: this one is sick:

Well Resogun and the things it's doing is certainly a next gen experience. Also Sony took the opportunity of a next gen jump to reboot their franchises. Killzone SF looks and plays much differently to the previous installments and it seems Infamous SS will be the same, in fact Infamous is pretty much the first real next gen title.

Knack is meant to be.
I don't think it is, but it's meant to be. :P

I understand it, it's like the hype surrounding every single new piece of tech.

Still, the launch line up didn't appeal to me at all and the PS3 will have some exclusives I want + blacklog. That and my Vita are more than enough for next year.
 
How is Killzone Mercenaries for just the single player? I'm not much of a multiplayer lately

Single player campaign is really good. Not that long but there are definitely incentives for multiple playthroughs.

I'm like you, and I never play multiplayer but I actually have really gotten into the multiplayer in Mercenaries and have spent quite a few hours with it. Good stuff.

It's fun and has a lot of re-playability if you want to go for the contracts. I've played through the campaign and put an hour or two into multiplayer (I exhausted that interest with the beta) and I'm definitely pleased with the purchase.

Also, I think GameStop has it for $19.99 on Black Friday in the US if I remember correctly.
 
their very limited shipping options is beyond bad.
I prefer fedex to their EMS but for newly released games their prices easily match amazon jp's at below msrp, whereas other import shops like PA and nipponyasan gouge for over msrp.

For games that have been out a while or bulk orders of 2+ items amazon jp and a forwarding service is much cheaper though.

yall are forgetting Ys on the 26th in NA ( or so claims joystiq)
 
For what it's worth I've never had a problem with SAL or EMS from them.

for NA/EU people it might be fine, but someone from nowhere island of poop like me not having DHL or Fedex options just render Amiami complete useless as EMS is beyond slow and not reliable.

I don't think it is, but it's meant to be. :P

not sure why Cerny didn't make a true platformers instead he made bland looking brawler.

so far it seems like Vita might got the better game (Tearaway)

No Gurumin 2 = Falcom guys are non-overlords.

CDJapan (Neowing) charges exactly MSRP and offers FedEx.
It's not discounted (except occasional clearance sales) but it's not higher than MSRP.
CDJapan has a higher percentage of points-back than Amiami (looks to be 3% on Vita games, as opposed to 1% at Amiami) + bonus points at certain order total thresholds, so it's a little cheaper than it looks, assuming you shop there more than just once.

Amiami is still cheaper than CDJapan overall, but CDJapan may be a good choice for people who want FedEx.
 
I'll be getting a Vita soon, but I'm going to wait for Black Friday and/or Christmas deals first. Do you believe this to be a wise decision or will the bundles/sales likely be lame?
 
Wait... Invizimals: The Alliance will be out tomorrow in UK/Europe?

we didn't get any info for the game like since the trailer.

anyone here will be getting it?
 
Oh god... the rush is starting. There's going to be too little games to keep up with and I think it started last week. I don't have money for all this, you guys!! Guess I'll hold off buying Golden a second time for a digital licenses and do other things.
 
how's proteus?


Some people may be put off by its length and the lack of things to do in Proteus, and I can see that -- especially given the $10 price tag. There's no physical interaction with the surroundings or objectives to accomplish. Hell, there's not even a jump button. While playing through Proteus, however, all of those concerns melt away under the shining soundtrack and visual design.

If you don't have PS+, wait for a mega price drop. Even $11.99 is asking a lot. It's a great experience, but short.
