Yeah if I had known that in advance I probably wouldn't have gotten those packs <<

You can just go back to the listing on the PS Store and hit "Download" (it's where buy used to be), it automatically adds all the items in the purchase package to the download queue.
Unfortunately not. The web store treats everything missing from the download list as 'not bought' so I have the shopping cart and price instead of the ability to download. And clicking on the shopping cart gives only an error that I'm not allowed to buy that.
edit: amazing. Logging out and back in on the web store fixed its download list but after adding all 50 DLC to the download queue more than half of them only give a 'could not download' error on the Vita.

I mean on the console.
Oh I see, that works. Thanks
Seeing as the last post in Monster Monpiece threat was almost 6 months ago, I figure this is a best place to ask. In game they said that you can only obtain seals and rings from playing online or adhoc, but look like the game's online community is already dead, is there any other way to obtain those materials?
Also, those rubbing games, man. I have never felt this numbing with my arm playing game. I failed 3 times rubbing Neptune and still can't figure out what's the best way to go with this.
I'll cook you.

IIRC that's the only way. Grinding for the plat?
As for the rubbing bit, Neptune has some unusual spots - try the face and the legs, I seem to remember those being hot spots for some reason.

Haven't seen any starlight tactics impressions from Pax south, did anyone try it?
Thank for the spots. About those materials, they said that some cards will be locked and you need a appropriated key to unlock before you can evolve them, so I just try to find the way to get them right now.
Welp. I just talked myself from buying anything off the Flash Sale. I had Echochrome, The Last Guy, and Lumines Supernova loaded up and ready to go but I couldn't pull the trigger on buying the $20 PSN Credit from Wal-Mart using my giftcard. Like, I have plans for this giftcard. I don't know what they are, but I have them! It's a $65 gift card too, the exact amount for a new game. But, I have GCU, so I'll never just buy a full game with it. It'd have to be something weird like a CE Vita game or Persona Q. Hell, maybe I should just use it for gas so I can get to work on Tuesday. And the rest on food.
The games weren't worth taking away so many possibilities. Also, Echochrome and Lumines are on PS Now and if I want to play them I'll just do it that way. Anyway, off to pre-ordering and playing Dying Light for a couple of weeks before selling it back to make a profit !!
What should I use this gift card on? Essentials, entertainment, random stuff? It's burning a hole in my wallet.

Spend it on The Last Guy!
Damn, Duke3D Vita is a great port. Just had a flawless Dukematch. Too bad not many are playing.

Too late! I'm going to sleep now and by the time I wake up the sale will be over! I'll just play The Last Guy demo again and get my fill. Maybe if I enjoy it I'll buy it then. Besides, I'm done with my PS3. I only turn it on out of necessity these days. And it turns on itself. Also, if I spent it on TLG, it would literally cost my $20 to do so. Then I'd have to buy Grim Fandango or something.
I Wanna Be The Guy
U-S-A! U-S-A! U-S-A!
I tried playing Duke online when it first came out but the lag made it unplayable.
We'll have to wait until wednesday.

bad gameplay lol
Saw on Twitter that Yosp just backed this on Kickstarter: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/deadmage/children-of-morta
Wonder if that means anything. Game looks great, and has PS4/PSV stretch goals.

I heard the next game from Cytus developer will be a native Vita title.
Where did you hear that from? I thought it was a mobile game.
Edit: Oh, Deemo has been on mobile for a while now.
Yep, Deemo's supposed to be native. Can't wait, since they're adding animated cutscenes and more story. The mobile version's already pretty awesome.

I just read that Deemo on Vita will have a two-handed mode using ad-hoc between two Vitas.
My mind is blown.

Yeah playing the Vita version and it is awesome.
Just started Ironclad Tactics and it is well polished and unique but it isn't what I was expecting. It is not a tactics, advanced wars, or a card game. It is more of a very deep Plants vs. Zombie game. Still early to judge but probably wouldn't have bought it if I knew what it was really like. Screenshots are deceptive. The interface seems designed for PC which wouldn't be bad but the game is in real time.
#killallzombies is right for $3 as a very generic ugly twinstick shooter. There are a few twists that are fun but there isn't much content there. Seems like it promised 2 more modes that probably are not coming ever. They are just there teasing you on the menus.
I know today has been a quiet day, but let's save that one for when there aren't any Vita news for a week or so.
Neptunia Rebirth 2 is out tomorrow, right?

Oh crap, I forgot and they still haven't charged for my order. It's supposed to ship tomorrow. I just mailed them, anyone else had this issue? IFI is...terrible, jeez.
We have Neptunia Rebirth 2 and Grim Fandango tomorrow, while we have Criminal Girls next week.
Holy shit, awesome. I could actually try it too. Dual-screen rhythm games, my eyes are not prepared.
For those wanting to see the marvelous Spongebob game, well here you can see screenshots

What's the issue with it (can't really tell from that screen)?
Semi-related, personally I wish all buff spells in rpgs could be cast outside of battle for permanent effects and a reduction of total useable mana. Examples of this system would be Dragon Age Origins, or, going old school, many spells in Bard's Tale worked this way. It sort of works this way in M&M except the duration is so short it might as well not be.
In general, though, I don't mind new takes on spell casting systems. I get a huge amount of my enjoyment figuring out new systems, get bored really fast if it's just standard.

Weird, I have not had any real lag. Maybe it was the people you played with? I did only try 1v1 though.

Not sure I follow, what are they using instead?
You have a certain amount of uses for each level of spells, in the screen you can see that the character can cast 18 times a level 1 heal spell, 16 times a level 2 heal spell, 13 times a level 3 heal spell and so on.
Let's say that i find useful a level 1 spell so i use it 18 times, i can't use that spell anymore but i still have the 16 uses for a level 2 spell, 13 for a level 3 and so on. Why can't i spend all my magic power on spells that i really want to use?
I don't know why but it's a frequent system in dungeon crawlers, IIRC it's in Wizardry, Class of Heroes, Elminage Original and others.

Oh, it's D&D style. Eh, it's different but I don't overly mind it. Keeps players from spamming low cost, low risk, high use spells.
That looks fantastic!
That can be done with a good spell balance though

Suikoden does something similar. I prefer it, personally.

It's your decision I guess, but that's a minor difference that really doesn't affect the game very much. Why does everything have to use MP? Neither system is objectively better or worse, it's just different. It really only matters if the game is balanced around it correctly.

I'm not sure it's possible to design a spell system where people won't abuse the lowest level healing spell or the weakest attack spell without flat-out removing them. And there's also spells that are good but never worth their cost so you never see them in play, which I think this sort of design is great for.
You also have issues (not necessarily problems, but oddities) like Disgaea where basically only the lowest and highest level of spell are worth using (though in disgaea there's a weird balance where the most efficient spell is somewhere in the middle). It's not necessarily bad, but it's different. I actually didn't mind FF8's Stock system, except actually drawing it in battle (making it a grind). Making magic from items was simple and effective.
Me too. Superior magic system, makes you utilize different spells and goes some ways into differentiating characters further.

They usually announce them within 24 hours of the last store post of the month IIRC.
