Me too, but I doubt it.

I might sell off one of my physical copies of Dragon's Crown now that it's going on Plus.

Edit: the image changed! Oh my.

Now they're showing May PS+ games again lol.

The "leaked" June games are iirc:

PS4: Pixel Junk Shooter Ultimate (cross-buy with Vita)
PS3: NBA2k14, Lone Survivor (cross-buy?)
PSVita: Dragon's Crown

Considering my physical copy of Dragon's Crown was in my Vita when it got stolen last week, this makes me very happy if true.
 
If Shooter Ultimate isn't crossbuy I'll be pissed, because that would mean the 6th month in a row without a single plus vita game I'm interested in.(though we still don't know the other vita game)

Anyone else picking up the Sly Collection today?

I was that close to getting it for 8€ on EU day one, then Sony decided to fuck me and blocked the discount code for the PS3 version just the week before Vita collection was released.

Now I'm just waiting for it to be dirty cheap. Same for GOW.
 
PS Vita Pets interview: http://thevitalounge.net/exclusive-vita-pets-interview/

There are going to be obvious comparisons to Nintendogs with Vita Pets, is there anything that sets this apart from Nintendo’s title? Are you keen to separate yourselves from that comparison, or are you comfortable with it? PlayStation All-Stars was never able to break free from the “Smash Bros clone” tag and despite it being a different style of game, kept a lot of people from giving it a fair shot.

Nintendogs is a great game and it’s flattering to be compared to but it’s really not accurate once you get past the fact that we both have dogs. PS Vita Pets is just as much of an adventure game as it is a pet sim, we think that’s one of our key differentiators from other games out there. We’ve built a pet game where you train and nurture a dog but rather than just unlocking new mini games you unlock new areas of an adventure as well. Teach your dog to pull, crawl, jump, etc and it’ll be able to use those skills to solve puzzles and move forward, we’ve worked to mix traditional adventure mechanics in with traditional pet sim gameplay to create something new. So yeah, we feel it stands on it’s own, it’s a solid pet game and a solid adventure game all wrapped in one. We also are pretty happy to be seen as a game rather than a standard pet sim, our dogs are characters, they talk, they go on adventures… it’s a very different breed.

cop out:

The name of the game is “Vita Pets” but seems to feature only dogs. Are there other pets in the game, or plans to bring different kinds of pets? How many different breeds are available?

With this we made a conscious choice to focus on a smaller number of animals and dogs specifically. We wanted adventure gameplay so we needed a pet that was able to do all the things we needed them to do, pull large objects, crawl, roll, jump, etc. Dogs just fit best for this particular game. Also with the dogs being characters they have their own voice and thousands of lines of dialogue, we decided it was better to offer 4 breeds of dog, each with a polished experience rather than many different ones where we couldn’t have supported and developed them as well. Each of our 4 dogs can be customised with different fur patterns and colours as well as hundreds of costume items so players can make them their own.

It's surprising how many Vita's has been stolen recently.

Have you got another one? Did you have some kind of insurance? Here in Spain some retailers let you contract an insurance for 1-2 years that covers everything, even robbery (<- I'm using it right? XD)


Interesting if you're into that kind of stuff, I guess. I suppose they're going to market this PSVita Pets + Minecraft + Invizimals: La Resistencia to try and get some kids from Nintendo.
 
Kind of a random question, but does anyone know what the deal with Strider 2 (PS1) is on JPSN? It looks like they're up, but you can only get them with a code in the packaged version of Strider HD?

I'm asking because I really want to play these games, but don't fancy spending $80+ on the PS1 discs.

Please tell me it's just a rumor. I already have both games for PS3.
 
If Lone Survivor is for Vita too well then, if not i really have really no interest in the June IGC(i already have Dragon's Crown) :(

Has Vanillaware ever talked about a Muramasa sequel? Imo the Monohime ending lays the foundations for that.

Not yet. They haven't even finished the rest of the DLCs. Kisuke's 3rd ending almost has the same kind of ending as Momohime. The foundations are also the same especially with the story teller saying it was only part 1 of Kisuke's ninja epics.
 
I've been looking at Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3 for a while now. I finally managed to track down a new copy for a decent price but I'm thinking about getting it on Vita as well. The dlc is cross-buy right? I need some Mahvel in my life.

Pretty sure Capcom has lost the license for Marvel so everything has been pulled from Psn including the dlc.

For the PS3 and 360 versions, yes that is the case, but if you get the Vita DLC, that also has the PS3 DLC as well (as the PS3 and Vita are cross-buy with the downloadable content :D).

So if you buy the Vita DLC, then it unlocks the PS3 version of that DLC (with that being in your download list).

I haven't gotten it replaced yet, but I will once the insurance payment comes through. They got my Vita, my 3DS, my Nexus 7, my PS3, and two laptops. Totally sucks. But I'll get a new one eventually. =)
 
I've haven't played any Sly Cooper games, so I may have to pick up that collection once I finish up FFX-2. Are all games in the collection worth playing?

I heard it is a great port, with Native Resolution and stable 30FPS, so its a great way to play the games :D!

Oh I didn't know that the Vita version was still available.
 
Oh man, I was hoping it would be cross-buy. I guess I'll buy it on sale.
I bought Sly 3 for $10 thinking if I finished up my collection of Sly PSN I could get it. I own Sly Collection on Disc, but only Sly 1 on PSN. Oh well, I will buy the collection if it isn't cross-buy.
 
You found a hack to skip the Introduction of the Vita, that everybody who changes a memory card have to watch?

Unless I understood you wrong.

When you get to the 'Parental Controls' message before the introduction plays, hold down the power button for ~3 seconds and then press 'OK'. The menu should open almost immediately afterwards then press shut off ASAP. Power back on. This saves the settings and skips the introduction video.

You talking about the boot time? I rarely even think about that on any system, unless it's really horrendous. My point would stand for me personally even if it took 5 minutes to switch a card out. Again, if you wanna spend more money for convenience, more power to you, I'm not saying you're doing something wrong :p

I find this offensive.

Reported for supporting terrorism and defying the goddess
 
Man, I'm afraid. One day I'll comment something and it'll appear in one of those walls of shame xD.

That sucks, man :(

Hope you get paid for the stuff that was robbed soon.

Thanks. It's definitely sucked pretty hardcore. Thankfully they somehow missed my PS4, so I still have that.
 
I just realized that I traded in enough games to Target to be able to buy a Vita 2000. They actually had a Vita 2000 there last week but it disappeared off the shelves. Guys I think someone actually bought a Vita :O
 

Let's see...

The Sly Cooper Collection for PS Vita
Platforms: PSV (duh), previously released on the PS3
Format: Digital and retail
Crossbuy: I'm going with "no" (but EU people got it crossbuy, so it's nasty)
Price: $29.99 (estimating no digital discount)
Looks like I was right... dun dun duuuuuuuun.

;D

But...
Mind Zero (or MIND&#8786;0)
Platforms: PSV
Format: Digital and retail
Crossbuy: N/A
Price: $39.99 (no digital discount)
Wrong!

Price was $33.99 and has a PS+ discount.

D:
 
I had to tie a lanyard to my Vita and strap it to my wrist doing this. I almost involuntarily pegged my Vita across the room in fits of rage. Seriously who finds this kind of shit fun? I don't even know why I'm playing this anymore.

They got rid of the Vita because nobody was buying it.

I remember this sequence making me go nuts back on the PS2, but I cleared it the first time on the PS3 collection and even got the trophy for not getting hit once (despite totally getting hit), and it made me think they had intentionally toned it down for the rerelease. Easily the worst part of the whole series, but thankfully you're almost done.

I actually like that area a lot. Love the challenge in that game. When I can't get through it, I just leave the game aside for a few minutes and then get back to it. That usually does the trick.
