If your choice is between Sonic Allstars Racing Transformed and Mod Nation Racers, then there isn't a choice to be made.

It's not that Mod Nation Racers: Road Trip is bad, it's just so mediocre in every way that I just can't care about it at all. At least bad games also stir a bit of passion.
 
So this came out of nowhere. Minecraft is releasing on PS3 tomorrow. Vita/PS4 version coming sometime next year. http://blog.us.playstation.com/2013/12/16/minecraft-hits-ps3-december-17th-in-north-america/

There's already a thread for it Flandy. :P

Anyways, good news. Hopefully it's early next year that they decide to release it on the Vita.
I hate you.

I've now bought the game TWICE. And one popular theory says I don't even have a soul...
Can I count your earlier purcha-

And no, none of you heathens who haven't bought it can count my double sale as your own.
Oh...

Haven't played it since launch but why not? Some Vitagaf mp is always nice. Also open for other games like Dragon's Crown, Everybody's Golf, EDF, LBP and Terraria.

I'd play. You just need to set a time so I know when you want to play. :)

Send me a PM on GAF, it's the easiest way to make sure I see it...
"Hey Frost, want to play <whatever> later? How about <time>?"

And if you're really nice, like I know nampad is, you'll tell me what time in GMT-5 (for EST). :P

Dragon's Crown, Killzone, LBP (we still need to do this), EDF, etc.

I imagine they will later in the systems life if the system manages to start selling in japan.

the first thing they would need to do is do something like release the vita 3k with 64gb of on board memory that still takes memory cards to expand it farther.



*whistles innocently* :P

Y'know, I'd probably import a Vita 3000 with 64gb of onboard memory that allows me to use a memory card. Even if the LCD screen is worse than the OLED...

1. You redeemed yourself with buying the game twice, we are all proud of you :)

2. I have time now. Thought you are playing TLOU?

Yeah, I'm probably not available until later tonight -- I need to leave in like 15-20 minutes... was playing TLOU and got distracted.
 
Is Sony ever going to make a larger game card? 4GB isn't enough. :\

That ain't gonna happen.
 
That ain't gonna happen.

It's a lot cheaper to expand the memory via on board memory to support bigger games than it would be to force their goofy format on a memory card bigger than 64gb. I mean if you allow games to go up to 8gb, even a 64gb won't hold many.

The alternative choice would be to allow the vita to take SD cards since they are much cheaper, but there is no way that will happen, thus to me it seems more likely to have a decent sized amount of on board memory to make larger games feasible.
 
I want a vita 3000 w OLED, better sticks, on board memory, and a bigger screen with 720p resolution. Basically, I want a better remote play experience.
 
So, I bought a physical copy of Tearaway at launch. I was just looking through my download list on the webstore and noticed Tearaway is in it. Hmmm?

If you downloaded the demo then it will show up as "Tearaway" in your PSN downloads list (and not "Tearaway Demo"). That's how it shows up for me anyway.
 
I think more people need to make use of Content Manager. I'm deployed and can't buy physical games and don't even own a single physical copy of any game. I have a 32gb memory card and just rotate out games when I'm done with them or want to play them. It's been working fine for me, honestly.

The OLED is likely gone for good, and if they are designing a system for a remote play experiance on board memory doesn't make much sense at all.

I'd likely use content manager more if it wasn't faster for me to just redownload stuff than it is to slowly transfer things lol.

You could buy another digital copy and give it to me :)
lol don't kill me

TLoU is amazing. This your first run or were you playing the MP?
 
I realize I am starting to repeat myself but damnit if Spelunky isn't like some digitized form of concentrated crystal meth laced with a side of crack cocaine. It is so addicting and so abusive, but just so enjoyable that I keep going back for more. And I friggin' *HATED* the demo when I first played it and sneered (literally) when I read people going on and on about how great Spelunky was in this thread. Holy crap I was wrong. I'm now at the
jungle levels and unlocked the direct route with the Tunnel Man
. This game just keeps on giving. Thanks VitaGAF - you were right...
 
ModNation is great. The only real issue is no online. Baffling, and stupid decision. But the core game of Road Trip is more fun than the original on PS3.

Especially stupid was the 'justification' being because no one played the horrible PSP game online. I wonder why, because it was a very shitty port of the PS3 version. Not it's own game (though it had a new mode). And the PSP's online was terrible by comparison to Vita.

I also really liked modnation Vita too. While the frame rate dropped during the last races, it was still worth a play through. It was pretty balanced too, which is rare in kart racers.

Thanks everyone! I'd been intending to pick up Persona cus that's the game everyone always talks about and I've never played. Looks like that'll be my first buy then...

I'm not a big JRPG guys and it's one of my favorite games I've played this year along with hotline Miami.
 
Damnit. Bought a hard copy yesterday since it didn't seem like Amazon was going to discount the digital version. :(

Oh well, it being the only game I own physically means I don't have to switch cards at least.

it will be free on PS+ sooner rather than later anyways so you can just get your digital copy then :P
 
Well... have 9 more days before I can play my Vita, and I've already downloaded the Spelunky & Terraria demos so they'll download as soon as I boot it up.

Premature? Maybe...

"Hey Frost, want to play <valhalla knights 3> later? How about <2 AM EST>?"

Do like me and play only the daily challenge, that restricts you to a single play per day. Keeps the crack to safe levels, and makes it more intense because you really don't want to die.
 
Haven't played it since launch but why not? Some Vitagaf mp is always nice. Also open for other games like Dragon's Crown, Everybody's Golf, EDF, LBP and Terraria.

what timezone are you?

i know frost and I are eastern.

I'd play Killzone and Hot Shots Golf. I don't think i'm far enough for dragons crown yet.

i'll try to organize something official. maybe tues or weds night ( thinking in US time right now) but lets try to coord when's best for everyone.

I know RedNnumberFive is into Hot Shots and Killzone too.

discussing MP makes me wish Tearaway had it :(
 
so if you had the demo for Tearaway and you entered the redemption code does it just unlock the full game?
kinda hope you say no cause I just deleted it
 
Im looking forward to tomorrow, Runner 2 and hopefully a good "12 Deals of Christmas"* sale title :excited:

*I don't know why I get excited....

loved runner 2 when it was on ps+ for ps3 and was convinced it would be perfect for vita... time to pony up for it. would gladly "double" dip.
 
Not a he! So your photos (despite being pretty funny) are INVALID.
I'll make sure to make an appropriate content next time. :P

Count me in on Dragon's Crown MP. I let my friend borrow it for a while so it's not on me currently but if this becomes official, I'll take it from him. What level are you guys? I haven't played much due to P4G so I'm just 32 Amazon.

I live in Southern California so Pacific Time.
 
Anyone else pick up Sorcery Saga and progress a decent ways into it yet? I'm curious if there's much to do in terms of extra dungeons once you finally beat the game and make that legendary curry.

As a UK PS+ subscriber, we didnt get it. I only played the demo of Runner 2 (enjoyed it but decided to wait for the Vita version), but i owned and loved the original to pieces on my Wii so this has been on my "must buy" list for quite some time!
 
of course it does. smh. One more question: Is the download continuously pausing a known issue? Or could it be my current connection.

hmm, not sure...I start the downloads before I go to sleep, so they are ready when I wake up. I haven't noticed any pausing issues from what downloads I have watched though

I am from Europe, so GMT+1. If you guys don't start too late, I can squeeze in some time.
My DC dwarf is at level 49 right now, so still not that far into the game. I suck at Everybody's Golf but it is still fun and I have already played with you and some other gaffer before. I also still need to get some KZ trophies.
 
Guess what's the best selling game on Gamestop.com right now?

Warms my heart. Picked up a copy at GS yesterday for $20 and played around an hour and a half last night...smiled the whole. damn. time.

I wish more games went for the charming and whimsical feel. It's so refreshing to play something like Tearaway...especially when it's this well crafted. Bravo on Media Molecule & SCE.
 
I hope they sold 12k copies in 27 minutes!


probably only 12 copies in 27 minutes :(

It likely did decently. $20 is much closer to the price that the general gamer population is willing to spend on cartoony non mario/sonic platformers, so a number of people likely picked it up if they had vitas.
