Sweet, just sent you an FR. If you see me online feel free to send an invite/message

Same. Or PM me here and let me know if you want to try to set up a time. :) I have a good # of mine done, but wouldn't mind playing some co-op and getting some more missions done in multi anyway. We'll make sure both of us get the trophies.
 
Why is there a pokemon in the Vita thread title.

I loved retro city rampage and completed it, people who don't like it are just bad at it :^p
 
Really excited for rainbow moon no matter how medicore I need another jrpg for my vita after P4 was amazing and disgaea was a shit show.
 
My Vita has been dispatched, should be here midweek! :o

I'm in the process of signing up for a PSN account, but I'm stuck for a username. I use "duckthatbites" for all my gaming usernames, but it won't allow it, I guess because of the word "bite" :(
 
Rainbow Moon generally got good reviews, though there were a few bad ones. I only just started it on PS3, but it seems pretty good so far, but as mentioned further up there is some grinding.
 
Is rainbow moon bad? The review I read of it got an 8 - ign, colin moriarty.


Not from what I've heard. Colin said he'll be playing it on Vita once again. He's also a hardcore retro gamer so the game might have some things that don't agree with newer gamers. (Archaic game design in some ways). I'm still excited for it though.


As for the disgaea discussion above, I still can't fathom how that game is loved so much. Story is abhorrent and gameplay feels really sloppy.
 
So now Vita Gaf I have officially joined you and already need to upgrade my 16gb Memory card -_-

Is their anyone on here wanting or doing Uncharted black market trades if so please let me know as i have yet to find anyone on near doing it. Plus I am gonna need me some Vita friends and where better to get them than Gaf.

I uninstalled that game and I think I don't have 3.3gb free in my mem card, sorry dude... I farmed those bounties too :(

Thanks. I like Colin Moriarty; he's smart, he "gets" the vita and like you say - has an oldschool, 'core gaming background.

you could use bytes instead of bites...
 
For anyone in Europe wanting to get Rainbow Moon on Vita, it is currently on sale on PS3, by buying that thus getting 50% off the Vita version you'll save a bit of money compared to just buying the Vita version
 
people speak of a tearaway patch - i still dont think i have the patch installed...but i don't see the orange download orb on the home page...any idea how i can check to see if i have the latest update or how another way to download it?
 
Alright, my Vita just shipped out and should be here Tuesday!

I'm gonna need some Vita friends to play coop/multi, so add me on PSN please.

ID is DemonFang343. Just mention you're from gaf. Thanks. :D
 
I am hopelessly in love with this little VITA loveliness.

And this is just from the PS+ games, Flower, and Oath from the Ys sale, not to mention Remote Play goodness. Shit works so well!

The backlog of games for me to get is insane!

Do we know how much the Vita version will cost?

It is for min/maxing. Collecting a bunch of different characters and making them as epic as you can possibly make them while dealing the largest numbers you have ever seen.

My bias is clear, I really enjoy the Disgaea series and SRPGs in general. The stories are there for comic relief and getting to know (somewhat) the characters at your disposal. The fun for me is making the best party possible, and Disgaea holds enough challenging fights along the way.

EDIT: No idea how the newer iterations of Disgaea fall under sloppy, but I have no idea what you are referring too.
 
How long is Tearaway? I'm curious to know how many hours it'll last me since I haven't gotten around to buying Killzone or Pokemon yet.
 
Guys is Orgarhythm any good?

I thought it was quite a good concept, but then the actual game turned out to be a bit too meh. I think the timing for the tapping is unforgiving and the RTS tactics elements too simplistic, which wasn't the best match. It's stupid cheap at the moment though, right?
 
It should be the same as the PS3 version

Also when I asked them on twitter about the sale price and still getting half off the Vita version they said this:

Thanks.
Just saw the blogpost where they said they are aiming for a similar price.
I probably pass this time. I don't like the artstyle and many reviews criticize the story. I still have to play FFT: WoTL and Tactics Ogre so I can get my SRPG fix there. Only the trophies would speak for this game but I don't really care about that.
I normally like to support indie games and this is even a german game but this game looks so uninteresting.
 
I just downloaded Flower, and I can't control it. The wind is blowing in the same direction no matter how much I waggle the sticks and tilt the Vita. Am I doing something wrong, or is there something wrong with my Vita?

The rear touch pad stopped working in Tearaway a couple of times too, so I'm a bit worried.

The sticks don't work in Flower. Did you select the right control mode for Flower? Maybe you choosed touch controls.
To turn, you need to tilt the Vita like a steering wheel.

My Vita sometimes has touchscreen issues which are gone after a restart. I guess OS has some problems. Happens pretty rarely though.

edit:

Nevermind, I'm stupid.

:D
 
I really liked the Flower demo, does the rest of the game hold up on the Vita?

It might just break my Spelunky addiction.
 
Wooooow, I had never played a Ys game before but playing Oath on the Vita (about 3 hours in) and it's hard to put down.

Thanks VitaGaf!

Oh yes. It's glorious, you haven't seen anything yet. It's also a 3-way cross buy with PS3 & PS4, and you can re-get the trophies on each version.

Took me about 8 but that is without COMPLETELY trying to 100% stuff. That was just the first playthrough but I did try to collect all I could during that playthrough. As such, at the end I'm about 80% complete and now trying to get 100%.
 
:/ black market made it sound more exciting

Yeah it does

I uninstalled that game and I think I don't have 3.3gb free in my mem card, sorry dude... I farmed those bounties too :(

No worries Im a fan of all the uncharted games but like you really need the space so am trying to get it finished then I shall quickly be onto Gravity Rush and Tearaway ^_^

people speak of a tearaway patch - i still dont think i have the patch installed...but i don't see the orange download orb on the home page...any idea how i can check to see if i have the latest update or how another way to download it?

If you press the little blue refresh button on the top of the live screen for tearaway it will show the Orange update button if their is one.
Alternatively if you go into it as you would do for deleting it there is an option that says version history click that and it will let you know what version you are using

I did exactly the same. Tried to collect everything I could but without being too worried about it. Just letting the game flow. It was like 8h and 75-80% completed.

BTW, I've started playing P3FES and... it feels kinda rough after playing P3P. Sure, having anime cutscenes and full 3D enviroments is good, but the UI in general feels quite old compared to Portable and P4.

It's weird to explain. I just feel like the game is just not polished especially character movement in the overworld and all that. I realize I'm in the minority though. I kinda wish I could sit down with one of you guys so you could explain the game to me XD

Thanks VitaGaf!


This is very exciting to hear. I picked up 7 and Oath yesterday.

hmmm the refresh didn't bring up any updates...whats the latest version for tearaway?

i'm on 1.0
 
Wondering if you guys could help me with this. I just noticed a weird blotch on the screen that I could've sworn wasn't there before, but I can't help not seeing now. It's best seen against a dark background like here:

caCZ2zo.png

I'm pretty sure it's not a mura effect blotch. I've had a look at the mura thing on my screen and it doesn't match up with this pattern that I can see under any lighting condition as well.

Got my Vita like two weeks ago and thinking about returning it while I can.

Side note: hope those Christmas PSN deals get better than 50% FIFA. Maybe Steam has spoiled me d:

edit: there's also black line like that at the bottom, perfectly horizontally. Is this burn-in? I've kept my brightness down and only played in super short sessions :/

No that is actually a fair point. Jumping in the overworld takes some getting used to; sloppy might be a good word for it.
