I would, if the last picture of me wasn't from Movember last year.
I lied. I wouldn't. I'm shy.
Oh yeah, the Hotline Miami OST is pretty great, even though I never really liked the game that much from a gameplay perspective. Which is why I haven't looked into HM2 at all, but if the OST keeps up, I might give it a listen.
And everyone should release their OSTs on bandcamp in full .flac format with some nice artwork and stuff. I would buy so much of that, but it's incredibly rare. :/
Oh and Toukiden Kiwami is installed and ready to go. Perfect timing, as I reached HR100 in MH4U yesterday and will take a break until the next batch of DLC hits there.
And if nothing interesting shows up in Plus next week, I#ll get Ayesha+ as well. Gaming bliss.

But I'm already using a real picture of me
Yeah, OSTs for games are way too rare. Yeah licensing sucks sometimes, but like 100% of the time they should be on bandcamp when they're indie games that exclusively own the music.

I've learned to embrace remote play you know, specially now with the 60fps mode. I own both systems, if I am able to play gorgeous games on my handheld that otherwise wouldn't be on the Vita, why not? Thing is stable as fuck, doesn't need internet connection if you are in the same room as the console, and it even allows for button mapping now. Heck, this being an RPG you won't even have to worry about lag, not that there is much anyway... been playing Bloodborne just fine on it
Wait what?
You can use direct connection from your Vita to your PS4. No need for internet connection.

How have I not known this? Time to try this later.

Chaos;Child is coming to PS4, PS3 and PSV. Guess that exclusive deal with xbone ended quickly. Most likely since it didn't even chart in the Top 50 on release.

The good news just keep on coming. Hope this gets localized.

Good news. Hope other 5PB/Mages stuff comes over! I couldn't believe 5PB was keeping up their Xbox deal at the start of the gen.
It's pretty great, basically what the Wii U does, except with 2.4Ghz instead of 5Ghz. Depending on your router's wifi it might be better to go that route, but direct connection is pretty effective if you're close to the PS4.

Also works much, much better than through WiFi, just make sure u don't have any devices that might interfere with the wifi connection from the PS4, like a tablet or a computer or whatever. You will literally have no lag and no interruptions. Bloodborne plays fantastically on it, and you know how precise you must be on that game. I wouldn't risk losing my Blood Echoes if it was slow and clunky.
If you are in the same room as the ps4, there is no need at all for a connection, wired or not. Go unplug yours and give it a run. Idk how they did it but it works amazingly well even at 60fps, I feel like they did some code magic.

Like I said on my previous post, it's buttery smooth if you are in the same room as the console. I just lay in bed and play, no lag, no stutter. Diablo 3 was great before bed, but now it is fantastic.
I know this may be late but happy birthday man
! A birthday can be a great time to reflect and relax about life, so it is a fantastic time to enjoy what you have .Heard great things about both of the games you have, so I'm glad you are having so much fun with them
. I hope you had a great birthday
!It really depends on what you want out of the system.
If you want great first party games, well, their are a few of them
. LBP3 looks to be the best in the series (after or close to the Vita LBP), Order looks like a fun rental to blow through in a day, Bloodborn looks to be the very first must-own game for the console, the two Infamous games (based on how fantastic Infamous 2/Festival of Blood was) are amazing and the Sony-backed Indie stuff has been very strong so far. The only issue is that Sony made-games are very infrequent and even then, we have no idea what's coming this E3. It is good so far though .Regarding Indie games, this is where the PS4 shines a lot. Yah, the Vita has a large number of them but a good handful of them like Transester are only for PS4, so it is a great place to play some fun, original games
.For third parties....I don't think I can best answer this for you :l. Stuff that would have excited me in the past (Shadows of Mordor, the Far Cry games, AC, ect) just doesn't interest me anymore...so I can't easily recommend them if I myself are so 'meh' about those games as a whole :l. I can say that if you don't own a high-tech PC, the PS4 is the best place to play 3rd party games and in the future, the ones that are really going to sell the system, for me at least (FFXV, KH3, Neptuina Victory 2, Ratchet Reduxe, Arkam Knight, ect) are coming later this year/early next year
.Plus, everyones statements on remote play has been really positive, so theres that too. Overall, if you have the money to get it now, a PS4 is a great next-gen system to own that easily complements a Vita/PS3/3DS owner or just if you want a great system to play games one
.Why did these get so expensive?
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B005WPG6DS/?tag=neogaf0e-20
Even on Amazon JP the black one is 2900 yen.
I guess they stopped making them some time ago. Sucks there's no other large Vita game case unless you guys know of any others?
I have a blue and white version of these, and need a couple more.
Guess I'll get a the pink version as it's the only one that's still cheap.

Places seem to have stopped making Vita accessories or just overcharge for them. Almost everything from screen protectors to card cases is overpriced now.
I don't know sadly
. When I go to my local GameStop, I still see Vita 1000 accessories laying around for okay prices (they even have some PSP case behind a Vita case XD!). Like TapTap said, it is very likely production (at least in the West) stopped for Vita related products, so the prices are likely to go up due to that.
I'm sure if you go on a place like Amazon or E-Bay, you could find a strong deal for some Vita accessories if you look enough
.I'm sorry if this doesn't help you Dallow Bg

No problem guys, appreciate your thoughts. hehe
I'll do some more searching but will probably bite the bullet on them.

I ordered this one, it's alright. Cards have to be put in the right way or they're kinda loose, and I hate the latch design, but it works and was reasonably priced. Nothing else I saw seemed to have quality to justify the higher price. It's smaller than the one you listed though

Stranger of Sword City.
There are probably plenty of others but I don't generally pay attention to non-localized games so I wouldn't know about them.
King of Wushu on ps4 looks really cool too.
I want them to localize all the games.
But I'll go with Digimon Cyber Sleuth. It's hard to be sure when we're talking about Bamco, but it's certainly not impossible.
SerTapTap

Everything forever. Cyber Sleuth is currently "the big one" I guess. Really hard to say on that one but it was successful I guess (almost sold out it's shipment very fast). I'm not super familiar with other Japanese only Vita games though. I hesitate to import, most of my imports are 360 since it's a lost cause for localizations at this point and I have a JP 360, so I've been collecting the JP only shmups. Vita and PS4 seem to have very high localization chances (outside of VNs) compared to prior gens, especially PS4.

Somehow I've already run out of online storage space on PS4. How in the world are some save files taking up hundreds of mb's?
SerTapTap
Member
PS4's saves are nuts. The 11MB minimum is bonkers, means you get less than 100 games/saves PERIOD in online storage (I'm already close to that), and some games reserve huge blocks for user generated content, replays, ghosts. And there's no way to say "only upload this save file" that I saw, gotta disable the whole game. Driveclub, WWE 2K15 and LBP3 all have absurd secondary save file sizes for that sort of stuff.
Do you have LBP3?

Bloodborne on Vita....*drools*
That's called Soul Sacrifice Delta.

Don't think so. Ps3 space didn't affect ps4 or Vita space anyway

U-S-A! U-S-A! U-S-A!
I don't yet. I plan on getting it once it goes on sale on PSN. But yeah I'm sure it is huge since it is on the Vita game for some reason. Games like GTA V and Alien Isolation are taking up ridiculous space. And Apotheon's save file is somehow over 300mb which makes zero sense.
Wait, what? So do we get 1 GB per system?
Do you have Apot-
Seriously. Got rid of the save data and rage-deleted the game when I found that out. Because come on.
LBP3 is what, 500mb no?

If I put on the PSN my CC data to buy a game and then remove it, is still stored on their server? Or is it deleted?

Yeah but it might have been for the best lol
Aksys is not used to making teasers properly, they fucked up. XSEED is the true master, they should learn a thing or two with them.
SerTapTap
Member
Yeah, they're not shared in any way. I'm basically full on PS4 but still have over half a gig on PS3 and probably more on Vita. It's kinda weird
LBP is huge because it reserves space for user created levels (which is dumb, make it only if you create them!), no idea why apotheon would be that huge.
names2hard4you
Member
If there weren't gonna be any updates for this long they shouldn't have posted anything. They just riled people up
Exactly, that's teasing 101. XSEED does a cryptic teaser, but they always announce the game in a day or two.
names2hard4you

They basically made it look like ZE3, which everyone has been hopeful for, for the past 3 years, and then do nothing with it. That just isn't how you treat your fans. Imagine if all this was just another goddamn fighting game. At this point things are bad for them, and if this doesn't turn out to be ZE3 they really will have shot themselves on the foot.
I don't think it'll be another fighter, if only because Aksys always announced them without any teasers. It'll most likely be a visual novel, just not maybe the one people were hoping for.
The Horror the horror

Hey, Vita GAF,
I'm struggling to decide between two of the indie horror games: Home or Lone Survivor
Which of the two is more atmospheric, haunting, and has a better storyline? If there are any games like these I might have missed, please feel free to recommend it.

Lone Survivor no question. Home is interesting but is far more experimental and IMO pretty tame. It's closer to a choose your own adventure in game form, the story changes based on what you do/investigate. Lone Survivor is basically 2D Silent Hill with (minor) survival elements (food sleep) and a mental health "score" that determine what happens. It's really interesting and I platinumed it gladly. It does great stuff with pixel art, wouldn't have expected it to be as effective it is at horror. Wear headphones and play in the dark. I'd also recommend playing at least twice, or just try and get all the endings, there's some interesting stuff hidden in the "best" ones.
Lone Survivor.
