Gravity Rush on PS4 would fix one major problem, the controls. Too bad the game would still be boring though.

Do you enjoy any Vita game?
Every time I read one of your posts here you are complaining about something.

Serious question, not trying to call you out.

Italian gaming sites are all simultaneously reporting the announcement of GOW3 Remastered.

Weird that it's just 3, but I guess remastering the entire set of PS3 remasters would be a lot of work...and require multiple disks. God of War Collection was already 2 disks + DLC codes on PS3.
 
This would make my purchase even more worth it. I would be down for this.

You can co op Bloodborne? No PVP bullshit (or I guess you can at least co op invaders?)

I've been in a blackout for the game for a while so....what's a Watchword?

Yes you can coop. So do you guys think it's a good idea?

I will just post this from co-optimus.

First of all, we learned that Bloodborne will support up to three players in co-op, including the host of the game and two summoned guests. To summon them to a game, the host player must use an item called a "Lulling Bell". On the other hand, guest players that use a "Small Resonant Bell" may enter a host's game at any time. Both of these options can be circumvented if players use a "Watchword" to set a password up for their session. While this only works for co-op, it allows anyone who knows the password to join them at anytime. One other action players are able to perform is a mysterious featured called a "Parting Shot", which causing the game session to end (works in PvP as well).Again, much like in other Dark Souls games, the guest will stay in the host's game until a boss is defeated and they've received a reward.

So I got Type-0 and Chrono Trigger. The former I am very conflicted with, which means the PS4 isn't being played as much. Should I pick up Bloodborne? Will I be able to play it, in between web development, java assignments, and socket communications... Hmmmm.

You should probably turn that around. Will you be able to get any work done in between playing Bloodborne?

Gravity Rush on PS4 would fix one major problem, the controls. Too bad the game would still be boring though.

Fixed controls might make the game even more boring, since wrestling with them was the only major challenge in the main game. But I'd like to revisit it on PS4 with some more polish just to fly around. As a Plus game, I mean.

Mobile TPS "2013 Infected Wars" is coming to Vita next week.

Looks generic as hell but if the gameplay is good it's definitely welcome.
It doesn't look really good but Vita needs more western-looking tps so it's welcome, i could buy it for the right price if it's decent.

Danganronpa 1 was highly enjoyable, just not a masterpiece. Vita has been primarily a PSP and PSX substitute. I've got a decent backlog brewing of remakes and rereleases like FF X/X-2 to get through.

All for it would be cool to play with VitaGaf folks.

I should be able to get the website done between today and monday. That is my number one focus so with that out of the way, it shouldn't be so bad if I play Bloodborne in the afternoons and whatever, and Chrono Trigger at night whenever possible, more as a long term thing. Type-0 might have to get delayed for a Summer play through.

Hm... GoW3 was a great game but I don't think I need to play it again.

I've hade GoW3 Ultimate Edition for years, never made the time to play it.
It's even signed by a couple of people who made the game. Won it in a competition.

Now, what shall I do?
If it was on Vita it would be an easy choice.

If it was on Vita it would be an easy choice.

The original game is still one of the best looking PS3 games ever, despite being released halfway into the PS3's lifespan. A remaster will not bring much to the table. A more stable framerate would be nice, but the original was already running over 30 fps.

And after what happened with GoW Collection, no, I don't think you really want a Vita port.

Downloading my Episode Duscae now, tonight will be good.

Entering the raffle again, thanks for the chance!
 
Man my PS4 download speeds are terrible and it seems there is nothing I can do.
I have a LAN connection, tried static IP, dynamic IP, router reset, port forwarding, changing DNS, everything I can think of. Speeds on PC connected to the same modem are fine. Yet Valiant Hearts (1.3 GB) takes 70 minutes on my ~40 Mbps connection. Really frustrating. It's not always THIS bad, but it's never really "good"

I can't believe I haven't posted in this month's thread. I lurk too much. :>

Also, yay for the Vita God of War collection being free for anyone who bought GoW 2 after getting GoW 1 via PS+ way back when.

Ah, so you got GOW2 for your PS3 and that unlocked the collection for the Vita for you (as you owned either the trial of GOW1 or got that from the PSN PS+ Glitch from a while back)?

Either way, congrats man and I hope you enjoy the games :). GOW2 runs better then the first one for some reason but regardless both are playable versions of two great games (though the cut-scenes are badly compressed X().
 
Guys guys. Akiba's Trip is so fun. Did I miss the train for that? Vita version on PSTV means I don't even have to buy the ps4 version now.
 
I can hardly wait until the end of the work day to play Soldner X2!

Wilflare this is awesome that you are able to run these two contests for everyone!

Good luck to everyone with the second contest, hopefully you will be lucky and enjoy the game like I will!

The first few hours were entertaining, but I quickly lost interest afterwards. The plot and characters are forgettable, and the gameplay becomes stale in no time.

Actually, that was back when GoW 1 PS3 got chucked onto PS+ legitimately as a bonus game for a month. I think it was to promote a God of War anniversary. :v

I thought it was pretty good. I really should go back to it and finish it off.

I guess I was wrong. That's a really long list of Vita games you like. ;)

Thanks for indulging my curiosity.

Cant dispute that im sure it will but for now Im having a blast.


waiting until i get a PS4 for Akiba's Trip since it's apparently the better version

I hear the only difference is better visuals (obviously), the fun mode where everything is unlocked already and you can sandbox it up and...thats it? I hear the loading is just as long and I personally dont think it's long on vita.

decreased loading times, better visuals, all ps3/vita dlc in addition to new content, and a bunch of other stuff according to xseed's localization blog

I kinda want Akiba's trip but for some reason I assume I'll get bored really early. I've been buying a lot of stripping games anyway lately. I'll get it eventually

Better loading time for pedestrians and I think more of them, and all DLC included free. It's not load-screen wait time it's pop-in style stuff that's supposed to be significantly better. There was a blog post somewhere that explained it nicely, can't find it.

Oh Cure found it

Well that is more than I thought....but not double the price worth imo.
Plus portable akiba and then take it home and playing on the PSTV is unbeatable imo.

Portable + home combo of Vita/PS TV is pretty sweet. I wonder what it'd be like if it were marketed like that from the start and with SD cards

If vita could output to TV on its own and you only needed to buy a PS3 controller from launch. Holy shit I swear people would have to buy it. HAVE TO.

Just beat Tales of Hearts R, and I have to say it's one of the best games on Vita. I hope the second Tales games is also localized and that Hearts sold well enough.
Starting on Neptunia Rebirth, it's the first game I'm playing from the series. Hopefully it's decent. Don't really have high hopes for it lol

Yeah, TV out on PSP was a great idea but was component only and no upscaling (it shows in the middle of the screen with massive black bars). A mini HDMI/displayport out would have been amazing. I think that's apparently what the Mystery Port was supposed to be. I wish they hadn't tried to be so weird about controlling the market (accessories, memory, video output), all you need to control is the games.

Starting it on Neptunia Rebirth, it's the first game I'm playing from the series. Hopefully it's decent. Don't really have high hopes for it lol

It's a good one to start out with, except for a couple annoying early difficulty spikes. Pay good attention to your Plans in the menu. Optional dungeons help avoid grinding

I regret buying the PS4 version of Akiba's Trip despite it being "superior", because it's not portable and I'm therefore less likely to ever finish it.

With that said I'm totally going to get the PS4 version of Estival Versus because it's so goddamn gorgeous.

Another giveaway? Thanks wilflare and thanks eastasiasoft again! Maybe I'll enter this time
edit: Entered! :D

eh wait - where did this get announced?

I can confirm it's true, at least in europe. I got GOW1 with PS+ and now bought GOW 2 and I got the Vita collection.

I think it's always been like this.

Edit: woo, TOTP! Can't even remember the last time it happened :lol
I definitely recommend the games I'm currently playing, Sly 4 and Rocketbirds. Also buy Velocity 2X if haven't got it.
