To those of you trying out this game tomorrow:

Please give gyro-aiming a try before turning it off!
Right stick for coarse aiming and gyro for fine fine-tuning your final aim work like a charm.

Thanks for the tip, my copy arrives today.

Sounds exactly like Uncharted.

What time do games show up on the Vita PSN Store?

Was hoping to play a bit before work, but alas, neither Gravity or MGS is up on the store yet.

Any time between 3PM - 9PM EDT.

so i finally got a way for my vita to connect to internet here in china. After 2 hrs to dl that ~500mb demo.. I think i might be sold.

Camera feels a bit wonky and the upscaled visuals really does hurt the presentation quite a bit. Will probably still give it a shot tomorrow.

Any confirmation if this will be 40 or 36 on psn?

$35.99 on PSN has been confirmed.

I'm wondering the same thing. When can I buy this?

Edit: 30 seconds too late!

Right, and people cried about it needlessly there even if it worked wonderfully.

 

[ULTROS!]

What I enjoy about this game is gem collecting. I've never been a fan if collecting gems but I had fun with it coz you get to explore the world a lot.

Regarding the camera I felt the camera moved too quickly for my taste, it felt like it accelerated very fast to the furthest point up or down. I adjusted the camera sensitivity and it helped a lot.

Mines the same status, they tend to dispatch it a day or 2 before release date. Happened with my Dragons Dogma and got it on release

Okie dokie, just checking it was normal and that it isn't going to be a week late, it is annoying already that we get it so many days later than everyone else, lol.

 

[Ragus]

Gyroscope works sooooooooooo well in this game. In my opinion it gives GR an aditional immersion.

Until you're trying to get high scores in the gravity slide challenges.

@DarkOne

The game is pretty easy, unfortunately.

 

[Returners]

To answer my own question:

The reverse of the cover is the quick start guide. Pretty cool if you ask me.

 

[Reclaimer]

I'm guessing I'm late to the party, but I had no idea PSN didn't operate on a stricter schedule. :/

Oh well, good thing I can just bring the Vita along with me and download

Spoiler

play

at work!

Am I silly for wanting to see more of the little in-game comics? They looked pretty neat in the demo.

 

[Mzo]

It does in other regions! The US PSN has been a source of hilarity for quite some time now.

 

[Darkone]

It's viciously easy. I died once in my import ersion

crap , now i don`t know if i will buy it.

 

[Defuser]

This game is good, Kouhei Tanaka music really adds to the atmosphere of the city and that recharge sound reminds me of FFVIII. Love the graphics and the comic book style cutscene.

 

[Ken]

crap , now i don`t know if i will buy it.

I think it's worth buying for the atmosphere (the BGM and cities are nice) and for the ability to fly around like a super hero and to feel like a super hero.

 

[RyougaSaotome]

It's viciously easy. I died once in my import ersion. Story also only took me a little over 5:10 to beat.

I still have no idea how you beat this in 5:10 hours. I played at a pretty brisk pace and managed 14 thinking that was fast.

I'm just going to assume you're some kind of AI or something.

Also, some of the later challenge missions can get ridiculously tough. Especially some of the DLC ones.

 

[Shadow2222]

My Amazon order is "shipping soon." This game looks to have an art style that truly draws you in. I can't wait to play it.

 

[Duane Cunningham]

I'm swinging by BB after work for it. I have a $5 voucher about to expire (and I want to see if that $10 Resistance 3 deal is still there).

 

[pelicansurf]

I skimmed a lot if not all challenges.

I remember playing the first few before deciding that, for me, they were mere fillers and dis not contribute at all. The gems collected in the stor mode and around the world were suffucient to max out all skills, i believe. At least the ones I was spamming.

This is definitely not what the average person will do, so you're probably the exception, not the rule. Kind of explains why you didn't think the game was all that.

 

[Skilletor]

This and MGS today!

I have way too many Vita games.

 

[KalBalboa]

This and MGS today!

I'm in the same boat with these two + the LittleBigPlanet beta.

 

[Pietepiet]

Was hoping I'd get the text today that my copy is in. Oh well, tomorrow it is!

Wtf, 5:10? Not to sound like a dick, but do you have a screenshot?

With 5:10 and no challenges there is no way in hell you would max out all skills, especially in 5:10 lol

 

[Mileena]

Does DLC have trophies?

 

[twentytwo22]

Does DLC have trophies?

Yes, there are a number of trophies for each of the three packs.

I imagine Sony will do the good old currency symbol switch to determine the European price.

 

[Elios83]

Just got the game yeasterday, it's like a game Team Ico would make on a portable console.
Really happy with it, great graphics, atmosphere, music, intriguing gameplay and open world+RPG elements, it has been really addicting so far.

 

[Luigi87]

Just picked up my copy, and am on the bus heading home. Looking forward to playing!

 

[Duane Cunningham]

So, there's no doubt that the military pack will be purchasable later, right?

Just this once Grace, just this once, update early please

 

[Pierre Levegh]

This is the game that sold me on the Vita. Just got my copy from Amazon to my office. It's my first physical Vita game and I know this has been said elsewhere but the opening a box and finding no manual is a little

Yeah... they're getting pretty close to Valve-levels of debasing the retail version. There's less reason to buy the physical copy than ever. That said, the ability to lend games to friends (or sell, etc) trumps the convenience of downloads for most games in my opinion.

 

[Eusis]

We've actually been seeing a few updates come at around 2, even 1 as of late I believe, though it'd figure if it were late this time.

Redeemed my code, so I just need the game to arrive from Amazon.

 

[bryehn]

Really wish there was a way to disable gyro for camera, that shit is annoying to me on handhelds :/

You can turn down the Motion Sensitivity all the way to turn it off, at least in the demo.

well, at least the manuals are (usually?) in color and more than eight pages! it kinda sucks that it's digital now, but with the way things were headed anyway it makes sense.

this game is really good btw. i'm not minding the difficulty at all, it just means i can get away with acting like a fool with the gyro aiming.

 

[Skilletor]

Mine just showed up.

 

[Eusis]

You're also saving space on your memory card by having it physical, so that's something.

But, yeah, I hate how there's no manual, and worse it seems like in general American packaging is being made ridiculously cheap compared to every other place on Earth. We JUST got double side printing for 3DS games, Europe and (last I checked) Japan don't have ridiculous holes in their Wii cases, and now Vita games don't come with physical manuals, perhaps FORCED not to by Sony. It's frustrating for people who have any care for attention to the physical package (or, uhh, want stronger cases to keep games safer for that matter.)

 

[The Elite]

Grabbed my copy. Won't be able to play it till tonight.

 

[Bullza2o]

My copy came. Off to play!

 

[BlazingDarkness]

amazon still not on dispatching

Does it release on the 13th in the uk on PSN? or will that not update til friday?

 

[darkjedi187]

Wonderful OT Takao, nice to have you back. Picked my copy up at lunch, so wish I could play now: (

 

[Wario64]

Nice reversible cover! No one will ever see this, lol

 

[Dead]

that is funny

 

[Eusis]

On the plus side, maybe that's recognition that it's nice to have SOMETHING in there, and the next step will be throwing things like that in the case, and likely keeping the door open for those that DO care to put in more effort for packaging so that, say, Persona 4 can get a nice manual.
