Outside of America! Seriously, Japanese games usually have something there whether it's a full manual or just a foldout similar to the reversible cover, and even Europe apparently has Rayman Origins with a manual. From the company that was the first to publically announce they'd be dumping manuals.
I have a feeling this might be retailers putting pressure to make packaging as cheap and lightweight as possible, and America IS more spread out, but since we're not talking about $5 DVDs it's exasperating.

most of them have digital manuals " that pink option" on the top of the screen.
Amazon shipped my copy so i'll get it soon

Game is everything I expected. The graphics are amazing! The story seems fairly interesting. I actually care about Kat. Lot's of OCD in this game. I think I'll take the advice of my fellow gafers and leave the challenge missions (golds anyway) until I'm fully leveled.
The controls took me a while to get a grip of. The sliding in particular

In the Japanese version, the quick start guide came on a separate piece of paper slipped into the game case.

I truly hate you all
You mean touching to dodge? That was the one thing I didn't like about the demo. It seemed like something that would have been preferable as a button input, and it's not like triangle or circle are being used for anything. In situations like that we should be able to choose between touch and traditional buttons.
I really liked gyro aiming, though. It quickly became second nature to me.
He probably means gravity sliding, where you place both thumbs on the screen to activate it, and then use the gyro to control the direction.
Excellent, I like those prices. Will be buying all the DLC for sure

I'm having a really hard time adjusting to the analog sticks on this game. They seem almost too sensitive. Anyone else having this problem?

Then adjust the sensitivity. Lol. There's an option in the menu. And yes I found them very sensitive as well.

I know that feeling, Amazon also hasn't shipped my copy yet
Though I'm glad to hear that most impressions are positive so far!

Ah! I have only played the demo. Planning on buying the game tonight.
There was a sensitivity option in the demo as well.

Turn down camera sensitivity to about 25%, feels much better to me.
I LOVE the traversal in this game, makes exploring the world a pleasure.
Regarding the swipe to dodge mechanic I was worried I would hate it, but its implemented very well. It only takes a tiny swipe in the corner to activate, works well so far.
And the soundtrack - Pure Bliss.
Still waiting for Amazon to ship my copy. I'm bummed I won't be getting it today (i paid for release date shipping, but it was my fault that they didn't ship it last night, as they processed MGSHD first, which I didn't expect).
I've waited this long, however, so I can wait one more day, and it'll also give me a chance to play some more of the many PSP games I still have on my Vita that I need to get through (most of them are RPGs, like Ys Seven, FFIV Complete, Corpse Party, and Gengka Bancho).
So many amazing Vita games are either out, or on the way. After Gravity Rush, it's Retro City Rampage and Ragnarok Odyssey as my next big purchases (well, I'll get MGSHD next week or something).
But then, LEGO Batman 2 releases, and I'll be getting that for PS3 so me and my wife can play...
*sigh* so many games...

I think it's a problem with the Vita in general. The sticks have much less give than those on a pad, so they're far more sensitive to small movements. Every time I pick up the machine, I have to make a conscious effort to keep my thumb movements minuscule for like the first 5 minutes while I get used to it all over again.
With the demo for this being so short, I just compensated by dialling the sensitivity to the minimum, while putting the gyro to the max, but I think I'll be fine on the default when playing the full game.

Don't feel bad I missed out on the Lego Batman 2 for $30 AND a $10 credit.
On your Vita, click on the PS store icon. Before launching it look up and you should see a little calender button of some sort. Click on it and redeem!

Doesn't really matter. No release-day shipping or DLC, afaik.

Geez what an attitude.
That background image looks great. Is there a wallpaper version of this somewhere?
Sucks, that I still have to wait until Friday to get the game.

I'm not sure I have a bigger version. Hope it helps.

Thanks!
Thanks Gravity Rush and to Amazon's "Buy Vita Get $50 Credit" I just - just a few mins from now bought a Vita from them (so technically didn't break my $200 or nor buy rule I was going with all over the Vita threads before..so I am still good on that) or maybe I just couldn't miss the Folklore of Vita
