Because PSN is separated by system rather than being one big collective. My guess is they had the Vita downloads more ready since they knew FFX-2 was not going retail. It will probably be up by Thursday.

Buy Vita version, sell voucher for 20 bucks. The voucher works on any system and does not require the card IIRC.
Go Vita. It's the same game but on the go. Can't you imagine putting in some good headphones and listening to the amazing soundtrack while on a bus? or in bed? or on the roof of some guy named Pablo's house?

Is this for certain? I might as well go to gamestop now to get it.
Holy crap. Just started the game and watched the intro CG cinematic. You guys weren't kidding when you said the CG looks a LOT better on Vita. Seriously, I'm surprised how good that opening CG was. Bravo Square. I applaud you
Glad you are enjoying it. I'll start playing in a few minutes!
Perhaps it's taking longer because of the size? (PS3 version is more than 20GB, while Vita is 'only' about 7GB).
Pablo does not condone trespassing.
What Pablo doesn't know wont hurt him.

Cannot say for certain. PSN maintenance for PS3 is Thursday. That is why I said it will be up by Thursday. I never bought a digital game off of PS3 before.

Thanks fellas. I know I'm being a siss but I just wish I could grab ffx vita for 20 and be done with it. Would be a no brainier. Guess I should just nut and get er done.

I'll second this. The support the Vita version is getting is fantastic

You are probably right. If the Vita versions are 3.5 GB each, and we know the PS3 retail disc is about 20 GB, the games might be 9-10 GB each on PSN. I would imagine that is why they are not on the store at the same time. The same file size differences happened with Sly: Thieves in Time. Although that game was better handled digitally.
Hell, I bought my Vita for this (also, Persona 4 Golden, but mostly this)
After the myriad of titles I've played over this year on it, I do not regret my purchase. Vita love represent!

Danganronpa has made be do an 180 opinion on the Vita. I cannot wait until the 2nd game comes this fall.

I bought my Vita at launch for this. I've waited over 2 years lol
And just did this! 
Redeemed the code...will download when I get home. Trade-in value was higher than expected at $16.50. The employee was nice enough to do everything in the same transaction. Usually you're supposed to pay first. Though I was getting a $20 PSN Card anyway for Metal Gear; so the savings was not as apparent but still there.
Got the 3 cards too!
...and now to work.The weird thing is that I'm probably the only one buying the retail version on Vita, getting the code for X-2 (and the 3 cards hopefully) and trading the X cart. I only wanted X-2. My favorite of the two. Asked around if anyone was willing to sell me X-2 only but no response, so ended doing that. Will use the credit towards Metal Gear Solid.

is the vita version 60 FPS???
Getting this on Vita for two reasons.
1. I don't really know how to explain. I just feel more compelled to play it when it's on there? More comfortable? Not really sure.
2. To show Square that people do in fact buy Vita games. Gotta show dat support yo to get more stuff like this in the future
Both versions are 30fps

sucks
It's an RPG. It's not like it has any effect on the game. It'll still look nice and smooth.

Anyone able to find the Vita version at Best Buy? Their site shows its not in stock at my local stores.

I purchased from Gamestop a few nights ago and chose pickup at store. Supposedly they give me a call when my order is ready, and I haven't gotten a call today. What the Hell? I'm tempted to just go in anyway.
What. Is. This.

Did you only get charged $40

It's not bad by any stretch of the imagination but the graphics seem a little inconsistent in the early areas of the game so far.
It isn't cross-buy. Either it glitched and you got both or you're paying $80

$42.49, to be exact.
As noted, all Vita games can be downloaded to the PS3 for backup/whatever. It is not cross-buy.
It's hard to say. For some, FFX was the beginning of the end, and for others, it's their top. FFX is rather linear, and the protagonist can be incredibly grating, but to me, FFX is my favourite of them all. The world just really engages me.
X -2 is kinda the weirdo, it plays like a fast paced, real time FF5, and compared to FFX 's more serious tone, is very poppy and Charlie's Angels like. But Yuna from...Chapter 3 onwards is amazing, I'm, and she has one really great speech which shows just how much she's grown since X. A lot of people slammed it for the tone change, so it's not as well received as X

Ohhhh, gotcha. Sorry for anyone I panicked.
Separate. 3.3+GB each.

If you like IX, you will enjoy X. X doesn't have the story IX did, but the gameplay is still in prime factor. You have to laugh at the goofy plot and enjoy the combat.
