Let's hope I don't get sidetracked with other games, the beginning has been ridiculously fun so far.

I've been ignoring Bloodborne since I wasn't really interested in it when it was first shown.
But now that I actually bothered to look at gameplay, screenshots, etc.. I need this.
But for now, picked up Sword Art Online again on the Vita. Nearing 90 hours and I'm not even done with the game yet. Might even be crazy enough to go after the platinum.

It'd be based on the Steam/iOS ver. which comes with an option for inf. lives ;D
i'LL Pick up the PS4 ver. when it goes on sale. Game runs OK on my laptop but even for an EU3 game I can't get the sucker to run at consistent 60 FPS @_@
GotY contender for sure.
Saw this gif and it got me interested in Ys again. I always heard about it and always thought about getting on the train, but I was always deterred for some reason by my backlog or simply forgetting about that interest when the next big game came out.
Is the Vita game any good and is it like that? I can probably pick Felghana on JP SEN.
I'm mainly interested in the combat and whether or not it is a drag to play.
That's Ys 3 (Oath in Felghana) and I am 100% behind playing Ys games. Play hem in this order
1- Ys 3
2- Ys Seven
3- Ys 4 (Celceta)
Expect kickass music, awesome boss fights, and simple but fun gameplay and good exploration.
PS3 jankiness, overall the game is more about its setting than the gameplay.

Its time for some Ys. Good thing with Vita is that you can play a decent amount of Ys games. That one is Oath in Felghana, which for most folks is their favorite title.
Ys Celceta is very good but has different mechanics than Oath. There is no jumping, and you have a party with you, with whom you can switch to any time.
With Ys you can always look forward to fun gameplay, amazing OSTs that get you pumped up, and challenging boss fights. Story has never really been a focus in these games, but for the gameplay aspect this series is top tier.

The janky framerate adds to the experience IMO. It's like Cinematic Framerate but for What

Same for me. Having already bought Metal Slug 3 four times I'm not about to get it again any time soon.

so right now I'm in the midst of Oreshika (and a couple bite size games) but I'm realizing I'm ridiculously overwhelmed by my ps1/psp jrpg/drpg/srpg backlog.
What are a few you all recommend I start with? Assume I own them all and haven't played any, which isn't entirely correct but is close enough (it's been ages since I played some of my favorites, and others I never got around to finishing... so there aren't many I'm not up for).
Bonus points for short games that take up a lot of space because I do need to start clearing space on my 64g. More bonus points for good combat systems.

Here's Bluemaxima Vita gameplay video for 2013: Infected Wars. It sounds interesting, but I can wait.

Just started Uncharted: Golden Abyss, as I had it for free from PS+ and wanted to try something new. After hating the first few minutes of Uncharted 1, I thought it was going to be a waste of time, but wow. This game is amazing!
I love the really swell sights, the excellent controls, and how smooth everything is.
It makes me really excited to try the original ones again.

Anyone who bought the new Metal Slug 3 release? is it from M2? How is the port?

It is based on the iOS port, or should be since it is handled by DotEmu.

It hasn't yet, judging by how many full priced games are in the sale section.Very little for Vita this week on european stores, I hope the store hasn't been fully updated yet

IMHO, at least GoW 1 and 2 are worth playing, the PSP games felt forgettable to me. Ascension is OK if you want more Kratos but overall 1 and 2 are more than enough for the gameplay with 3 being good for the graphics, but overall story is shit...

Man that Aksys tease thread... It's where dreams go to die isn't it /: Been following it closely, it's amazing how it went from being a place full of hopes and dreams to what it is now. That 0302 is really gonna be up 4infinity isn't it.
First PSP game is decent enough. I'd say the second one is quite good. I still haven't beaten Ascension.
If you just get one, I'd get Ghost of Sparta.

That would complicate matters with Toukiden for me. But Tales can go lower in a couple months, right?
Decisions. Decisions. So hard.
I'll wait for the full store update.
And I was close to buying a PS4+Bloodborne several times yesterday. But I think I'm in the clear with that one. For now.

I'll wait for ToH to drop lower. Tales games have seen some crazy discounts in the past and I'm not convinced I'll like it.
when are you coming back to VitaGAF LINE?
hmmm. the PSP games have never been included in any bundle or collection right?
only the HD Remasters of them?

What about the original Soul Sacrifice? It was included in the + lineup before, and became free when SS Delta came out. Sorry if wrong though.
Hmm, you might be right.
As long as those don't use IGCs slots, that's great. Though I've been a PS+ subscriber since late 2012 and the few games I've missed (og Darksiders, Deus Ex) I've already bought them
No, it is from Code Mystics (KOF98UM Steam). I watched some streams yesterday and it looks OK, but isn't based on the AES releases, just like the NeoGeo Station.

How is the SIlent Hill game for Vita? It's 5. I know it's not a classic SH game, but is it still decent?
As a sh no is not decent. As a game, yes it is.

Most people I see love this game not as a scary horror game but as something like a top-down dungeon crawling game (really don't know the term sorry). But with the advent of some nice dungeon crawlers from the niche pubs (Demon Gaze, etc.), their impression of it might vary. Go in expecting a dungeon crawler rather than as a lover of the series and it might leave a positive impression on you.

Sounds good, I'll check out some reviews and gameplay. Can't really go wrong for 5

Ghost of Sparta is great on PS3, has roll mapped to right stick, looks great, not sure I can recommend the PSP version. Game itself is great but I'd really suggest playing the PS3 version it's easily the definitive experience. Ghost is one of the best GoW games IMO, right around 1 in quality, not quite as good as 2. The simplified QTEs are about the only thing that gives away it's a remaster of a PSP game not a PS2 one. OF course, it doesn't look as good as God of War 2...but few things do.
As I was scrolling through the web store I saw that Freedom Wars has been discounted
Great price, do recommend. Game has flaws, but even just playing the main story I got my money's worth (I also paid around $15, best buy clearanced the poor thing). Series has major potential though, they just need to do a big revamp for 2.
My god. It's glorious.
I don't know if I'll be able to wait for the NA release. I need this on my Vita ASAP.
That large "Sample" text though...Thanks. Its my phone wallpaper now.
