Hey all, sorry for the probably simple question but has it been confirmed if the Vita version of Cyber Sleuth is going to get any bonuses during the first week? I'm trying to decide if I want to pick up Final Fantasy Explorers but Cyber Sleuth comes out on Feb 2nd. I'm wondering if I should just wait on a sale for Cyber Sleuth Vita but i'd rather support a game like that made it over here by the hair of its chin.

Yes, we do get the assortment of themes and DLC items.
I'm not sure what the content will be but in JP, you got a Dark Agumon and another Digimon with early prints/day one buys of the game.
So I'm sure that will be the case with the NA and EU launches too
.Holy hell GAF
Thanks for the responses!
Gonna wait for PS+ sales going by some of your recommendations. I guess they happen pretty often?
Gonna start with P4G and Danganronpa 1 for now since they're on sale.
My wishlist is PACKED though
Start with Danganronpa because if you like it you can get the sequel while it's on sale.
Oh snap we get themes too. Wait, is the themes for PS4, because im getting the vita version. Because, you know, Vita means lifemon

You can check psprices.com for previous sales on the titles you're interested in, so you can see how much you might save and estimate about how long you might have to wait for the next sale.
I know I'm lttp, but if you've played 9,9,9 you MUST play VLR.
As others have already said, don't even think about it if you haven't.
Just got a vita (again) and I'm having an awful time, can't get through a quarter of my download list before getting np-2245-3 PSN errors, random errors when in the store, rubbish search results like final fantasy 50% off that lead to nowhere and freedom wars being under a massive pile of microtransactions. Starting to regret this purchase
Totally agree. After over 4 years, my cable is starting to break, and I couldn't find a new one at any electronics store in my city (neither original nor unofficial). I found a dupe in a Chinese store selling all sort of things, and this was the least place I expected to find it lol. I still haven't tried it, but from a first look, it already seems far more solid than Sony's
Been playing more of my backlog and a few games I got on sale, with the big one being Ar No Surge.
Ever since I saw this being hyped on Vita Gaf I wanted to play this, with the OST's for this & Ciel No Surge plus the latter games story being soo good pushing me to get the game. It was pricey and I didn't want to spend 40 bucks on a digital game (at the time, had no issue getting Ratchet Collection and Hollow Fragment at full price). Due to the Winter sale and this being 20 bucks, I had to get this!
Played a good bit of this before focusing on Summon Night but now that I'm back, I really like a lot of elements to the game.
You have the combat system, which I find to be great. Its like the Mario RPG games but with Battle Network like elements to them; you press buttons to do damage real-time but like Battle Network, you have X amount of a move. You an do 'breaks' which re-set your move amount and can do more attacks in addition to a powerful 'Song' attack which can kill entire waves of foes.
Wish the battle system was more common but you can re-do battles a lot if you like, so that's cool with me. One of the few times I look forward to fights in a JRPG, so that was a surprise !
The story is great and I love how much dialog the game has. It leads to the game world, well, feeling alive. I want to follow Delta and Casey's story and see where it goes, I want to talk to all the characters multiple times to see the new dialog options that open up and I want to do the Gemoetric's not just for powerful Song Magic, but to experience new story elements.
The amount of Story content here is massive and impressive. The fact most of the story is voiced in JP is impressive to me too.
Presentation is strong, with the game looking very clean at native res with the audio having great quality. Character models and animations look great too but the frame rate isn't the best; can dip a lot at points. Not a deal breaker at all, considering they more or less perfectly ported a PS3 game here, I had no issue.
Overall, really love this game so far and I can't wait to play more!
Also been playing Bastion, the Crash Trilogy, and latter some Plus games (Grim Fandango will be on my Vita when I'm done with a game....big game at 3GB XD!).

Thank you for doing this

? Hope so ; would love to play this on my Vita in the future.That's pretty much a confirmation for the Vita version, and thanks!

Here's hoping. If NISA are involved, then that pretty much means physical release too.
Gravity Rush 2 was originally in development for Vita.

And the first one started as a ps3 game, right?

Seems like a great port. I was pretty disappointed after playing it since they made some questionable design choices compared to the original, but I'll gladly replay it on Vita trying to get all the mudokons.

Never played the originals, so what is the issue with this version? Looking forward to playing this when it comes out on Vita, so very excited about the port looking so great
!Just wait for Gravity Rush 3 to move from the PS4 to the Vita 2.
If you didn't play it you're not gonna have most of my issues, then.Never played the originals, so what is the issue with this version? Looking forward to playing this when it comes out on Vita, so very excited about the port looking so great
It's summed up pretty well in this video (although some of his points are a little silly, like the ads for the indie games) but it's mostly about the fact that the original philosophy behind the aesthetics of the game is completely gone in the remake and they opted for a dumb "shiny and pretty is better" approach. And also the transition to 3D made the game worse in a lot of ways.
Watch it after you played it, obviously.
The only "bad" thing about the original is that it's absolutely brutal because it doesn't have the quick save function they added to the sequel so if you're gonna play it, it's recommended to do it on an emulator even if it's gonna look pretty bad compared to, for example, playing it on Vita.
Also, they fixed the stupid control scheme by making it similar to the original one so that's not a problem anymore.
Thank you for the heads up, as its always good to know the issues/flaws of games before you play them.
Never thought the original was bad, as it is a classic

It's just very hard.
Oh snap. Follow @LimitedRunGames if you didn't already.

Yes, the themes are for the vita, I assumed you meant the vita version in the first place
Edit: woohoo just got the notice that I'm getting my 64GB card in February
This is totally great do they ship worldwide?
They do.
Right. Toyama said something about it fitting a handheld better. I'm sure that will net us some "my eyesight is bad so big screen is better"-esque contradictions in the lead-up to 2's release.
So far, only Play-Asia that I know of.

PlayStation UK Support confirmed the issue and are investigating.

For anyone whos not aware, PlayStation Plus Automatic Uploads / Automatic Downloads / Automatic Trophy Sync have not been working on the PS3 since sometime in Mid-December.

Don't even care if it's a far worse version than PS4, still looked enjoyable enough for that Vita version to be on my radar.
Yeah I'm having problems as well. Hopefully they manage to solve the issues, I use it a lot especially for automatic cloud saves upload.

It pairs up with the daily cancelations
yes, I'm salty. I'll eventually get over it, unless other games I'm really looking forward to get axed. which is not unlikely at all

It has been a roller coaster ride more than usual lately, that's for sure
18 minutes of Grand Kingdom gameplay
The OST is going to be so good.
And here's what the game looks like:
New game for every cancellation!
It's rather unfortunate that the Vita versions of some indie games didn't pan out. Maybe devs shouldn't announce a Vita version until they know what they're getting themselves into.

Doesn't really matter to the point I was making. The likelihood of it ever coming out for vita was slim to none. They say they considered it but early in development decided the scope was too big...well, early in development could mean while they were still doing art mockups and coming up with the name. I find it doubtful it ever grew to any sort of life on Vita, since they've been pretty darn clear about their stance on creating content for Vita. In 2016, it was PS4 or nothing imo. It's a shame, sure, I guess... but it's not some sort of betrayal. It's got a better chance to have some sort of VR element than be for Vita.
