I still have literally no idea what Steins;Gate is even about (and I'd like to keep it that way until the game is out). Somehow I managed to miss everything about it all this time. Quite excited

MGS HD is good, right? Though it's $20 physical I might just get it that way. ...much to my shame I played Twin Snakes and not the original. Yeah I know.
"Buy now before we delist this one too!"
Interested too. Wyrdwad said he genuinely liked it and that picked my interest.
Considering getting it for PS4, it's not like I imagine the game would be night and day on PC.
The title you mentioned is the PS2 game localized by Atlus USA, I've played the PS3 game localized by XSEED.

Damn, I look good in print.
Seriously though, feels surreal.
I know, sorry if I wasn't clear. Not dismissing you post in any way, the fact that you talked about Wizardry lead me to ask this question, that's all.
I need a physical copy of the first edition so bad.
Game of the Month voting is starting! You may vote for one Vita/PS4/PS3 game that was released between March 31

Woah. What's with the torrent of PS2 games? Not that I mind. IT seemed like they were pretty rare when announced but it's like every week now.

What Star Wars PS2 games are there? I already have Battlefront 2 on PSP (works on Vita) and Xbox (works on 360) but I would probably buy it yet again because I'm stupid.

Incoming HD emulation on PS4
I wouldn't know, unfortunately. It's definitely one of the older titles I'd check in the future, though.

I shall let you know when we do the reprint.
Except for the first mission, you can co-op the entire campaign. Two players for each mission and four for boss fights. Game is so much fun in co-op too.

Does the earlier Golden Week needed a PS+ sub to get the maximum discount on games? I'm not subscribed right now and I just want to spend everything on games considering my budget for this (20 bucks).

I played it and enjoyed it for what it was, though the game is fairly basic and the dungeon designs are generally very simple and not much to look at. Unless one is really into DRPGs and does not care too much about graphics, then yes they are not going to have a good time with the title. Its not exactly a mainstream title basically. The first version was not the best either but unfortunately the US never got the second title in the series I think which was the better one.
If the game is cheap enough and you are a fan of DRPGs its still worth picking up. Its just too bad there never was a portable version of it instead of just being PS3 only. Never messed with the iOS version.
The game was midlined in Japan also, with folks saying its a "good" title for starting to mid skill range players, but as like an actual title with the Wizardry name on it, its missing a lot of things which makes Wizardry what it is. Other issue was the first version had some serious bugs in it, but am unsure if the US version does also.
Have all of the versions of the game here somewhere, but have not played them since their initial launch period in Japan.
Just dont expect something super awesome out of it basically, but seeing as there are not exactly a lot of DRPGs on the PS3 thats about all you are stuck with for the most part. Also the Class of Heroes2G PS3 version Gaijinworks is doing, am not sure if its out yet you might have to go and look that up.

Played Dark Forces, Racer Revenge and Starfighter. They were all good at the time. Not sure if they hold up. Starfighter is probably a better 3D space shooter than anything that has come out in the last 10 years for consoles. Will bite if there is a good discount. Almost thought I wasn't going to buy something this week which would be the first in about a year.

Just to be clear when I talk about wanting wizardry on vita I'm talking about the western pc games from the eighties and nineties, not the newer ones requiring localizations once the franchise died in the west and regained life in Japan. I guess I'll take both, obviously, but gimme the early ones.

$12 is a good price for Battle Princess of Arcadias, RPG beat 'em up with strategy elements, battles come in normal beat 'em up style, boss fight and "team" fights that are more strategic. Pretty fun, I found it less..."fussy" than Dragon's Crown which I just couldn't get into. Art style is adorable and squooshy

Thing is the West does not seem to give a general shit about the Wizardry series let alone the older ones. Which is odd considering its a Western series to begin with. Its weird since we get "reboots" of other series, but wizardry in general seems to be left forgotten. Id imagine part of the issue too is the rights holder and such. :/
Japan for the most part has been the only place that has really kept it going for a long while including doing a bunch of mainline stuff. Though that trend has died off for the most part. Even Starfish who was basically the last remaining company to do a lot of the Wizardry titles seemed to have stopped. Along with their more core series Elminage and instead recently went and remade the shitty spinoff psp game that everyone hated on the 3ds. The biggest time for Wizardry in general with Japan was the PS1 / PS2 days which also included some of the titles brought over to the PSP / DS. From there its kinda fallen off / series in general has gotten heavily diluted.
It just goes to show the times are changing and the genre itself for the mainline hardcore stuff is not as popular as it used to be.
In the US apparently the following below owns the IP.
No idea in regards to the companies IPM Inc. and Gamepot Inc.
At least on the PC there are a bunch of good traditional Western RPGs available for purchase the Legend of Grimrock series being one of them. Though most of those have little to no reason to bother bringing those titles to the Vita at this point in the game. Besides newer indie devs that already have working with the Sony platform as part of their plans. Which we already have a good number of still it seems.
While all the following below is in Japanese heres a list of a bunch of titles.
Am pretty sure there are a few more than this also.
On the subject of fucked IPs Im still pissed that Ubi is sitting on the panzer generals IP doing literally nothing with it. At least it was Ubi the last time I remember a friend and I were talking about this a few years back when Allied Assault came out.
Its unfortunate that there is pretty much a non-existent mil strategy genre for the Vita in the West. Im surprised too that Koei has not brought out the Nobunagas Ambition series on the PS4, though I know first hand that those mainline strategy games are a localization nightmare. Then all of the crap you need to have looked at with all of the historical events etc. But would have made a nice re-introduction to a long lost and loved series. Then the West could have gotten the Vita version too as there is one for the same game.

Ugh it's 500 MB though....
Ah well I can always delete when I'm done playing it and don't wanna replay it again~
It is. It also takes up less than 500 MB of space in your memory card (one of the smallest Vita games in terms of size), so there should be no excuses.
Only got $10 though
People owe me money though so i'm about to go loan shark to get the funds before the sale ends.

Half the games I'm looking at buying I already have but swapping carts is too annoying.
Raiden IV is pretty cool, way worth that $8
WTF that's tiny. Ugh I guess I might get it

Yeah, I'd say it's about $25 too high still.

Tentacles? Sold.
Seriously though, that the presentation style looked really neat when I first saw preview screens. Glad that...uh...whatever it's called game is doing that but better. Ray Gigant maybe?
