Vita PSN Game & Service Thread | November 2013 | Tearaway into a new world

Just got my first ps vita in from radioshack. The fedex box was closed but the ps vita blue box tags were open. Like the stickers weren't closed, hopefully this isn't a used or defective one. Its charging up currently. Is it suppose to be dead and needs a charge before using it.
 
Happy to get Guacamelee, but between it having been spoiled by that leak, the rest of the December lineup not particularly impressive (two games per console again, don't have a PS4, one of the Vita games is a PSP one, two of the other games for systems I own are racing games) and, let's be frank, mad jealousy at that US Soul Sacrifice, I'm not exactly ecstatic.

Oh, and not getting new yearly games sucks too. I hope this doesn't become the start of a trend of EU PS+ getting the US PS+ treatment.

I'm glad to see a bunch of other folks jumping in because of that deal, too. I dunno, what you describe would concern me too. Personally, I just went to a Best Buy brick and mortar and they price matched the Radio Shack online deal.

Looking through my download list and finding games I tagged in PS+ without really thinking about, stuff I bought with crossbuy without ever caring before, and stuff I've had on PSP and PS1 that I forgot I could play on this thing, last night felt like finding buried treasure.

Glad there was a good deal before Tearaway, really hoping that ends up being good.

theres been some whispers of impressions in this thread that it's incredible...so heres to hoping!!
 
the motion controls for flower don't seem to really work for me. it's definitely accurate, possibly more than the dualshock 3 was, but the screen being attached to the controller makes it annoying. you're twisting the vita to control the game, but that often positions the screen so that it is more difficult to see.

i tried the touch controls for a bit and they actually worked pretty good. they really should patch in stick controls though.
 
i am way more excited for Tearaway reviews than launch title reviews.

part of me wants to but a physical copy... wish there was an LE to cop.
 
I think someone mentioned it in this thread, but I hadn't been able to confirm. Just found this though, which confirms it. Sucks, but at least I know before spending too much time in the higher difficulties.

Seems you found it, but they don't stack.

New Vitas have enough juice out of the box to use it for a bit.
 
I can't believe i was so hesitant to buy a Vita, it's the best thing i've bought in ages. It's made me fall back in love with gaming, just in time for the PS4.

I also can't believe i never played Jak and Daxter before, it's so fun. Which is the generally considered the best in the HD collection? I can tell the first is pretty old, but i'm playing through them in order.
 
Tearaway is 1346MB according to my downloadlist.
Downloading it right now.

Now that I checked, I have it on my downloading list as well, but when I try to download it it says: "Could not download. The payment process for the pre order is not complete. Please try again alter if your wallet does not have enough funds add funds to your wallet NP-14246-7" I did pre-order it from the EU store few days ago, plus I have enough funds in the wallet. Any ideas?-

glad to hear you're liking it - i think people really like 2 - but i've heard there is some slowdown in the HD collection.


@Esoteric - added some time to the end

Apparantly the DL doesn't work yet. I didn't even notice until I looked at my Vita a few minutes later and saw that it didn't even start downloading.
It says that date for predownload is 19th.
 
I may be getting a 64 GB Vita memory card tomorrow
I will back up my save files and trade in my old 32 GB mem card but I want to know how I can remove my US PSN account from it before trading it in.

Just format it on your current vita. Although it doesn't matter either way even if you leave it on because once they insert it into their vita it'll force them to format it anyways if they don't have your PSN credentials

Perform a backup of your memory card through Content Manager, then format your memory card.

Worst case scenario if it's still somehow tied to your account, the next owner will need to format it again to use it anyway.

Oh OK thanks for the info.
 
Where do you find all this SSD stuff?


I learned that Phantom Breaker Battlegrounds is coming to Vita in Feburary, I suggest everyone check it out. It's actually a really fun 2D brawler that happens to be filled with undefined moe blobs.

I follow one of the devs on twitter.
 
EviLore's really gotta upgrade those GAF servers

Or stop tripping over them

What I don't get is if those servers are down due to outsiders coming to NeoGAF, or more than half NeoGAF members connecting at the same time... or both.

I'm gonna look stupid after I say this but I've just found that I have 75€ more than I thought... when I went today to close my old bank account. One that I haven't used since March or so.

Preording Tearaway now?
Yes!!!!

Last I checked it was only confirmed for Japan, did we get a Western announcement?

Weren't the servers down for the scheduled maintenance this morning?

Rightclick on it and "save url", then paste it in the image-tag, it's jsut a picture after all.
Sometimes the avatar fit the post very well or people just want to point out how funny, great or terrifying the avatar is.

Or you can rightclick and open the image in a new tab, so that you can copy and paste the url. That way you don't have to save the picture.
 
A particularly good day for me in Rayman Legends. I'm up for two diamond trophies, atm, in the only challenge type that I know how to play well enough to get diamonds in (the infinite tower ones). God I hope no one drops me from my spots. That would shave 5 days worth of Gold trophied challenges (what I'm mostly capable of in other types of challenges) from my long journey to Awesomeness level 11. Once the Invasion levels are hopefully patched in & I get all the trophies from them (I read someone say they might come during November?), that means I have less than a 1000 points to go until lvl 11, which is about 40+ days if I get gold from every challenge going forward (a bit less if I get the occasional diamond like so far).

Man I'm obsessed about this game. At first I didn't even want to bother trying to get the platinum trophy, but then I played the challenges for a couple of weeks and now it feels it would have been a huge waste if I don't go all the way through. I don't really play any other games atm because all of my (short-ish) game time goes to Rayman Legends.
 
Rayman for me is what Atoi is to corrosivefrost. I'd like to get into it but just can't stand the aesthetic.

Thought that was supposed to be a 15-20 minute thing? I've been getting rolling 504 errors for hours.

You can't stand the most beautiful 2d platformer artstyle ever? Granted, Rayman & friends themselves are goofy-looking, but the environmental art is pretty much the best ever.
 
You know - I could be very wrong here... but I *think* that bluemaxima likes Flower maybe just a little bit.

Just a hunch...

Guess I'll have to go buy it now.. thanks for the review Bluemaxima.

You don't have to save the picture by rightclicking. "save url" is differnt from "save picture", it just copy the url, so you don't even have to open a new tab.
