Notice the game on the screen? It's Galaxy Wars 3. I guess Pockett was once again correct.

My wife just noticed that (in the US, at least) American Express has another $25 back if you spend $100 at the Sony store. If you have an Amex, you need to 'accept' the offer on their website before buying. I used this last year to pick up $100 worth of PSN credit for $75, and will do it again this year.

Combine with PS+ sales, and you can make your money go pretty far.

Obviously i want to believe(but i would like Nano Assault Neo X more because it looks like the evolution the Amiga Stardust games deserved! It has my beloved warp sections! XD), but are we sure they weren't just trying remote play?

Don't feel bad. Feel despair :)

Perhaps having a gif with
admittedly difficult to see spoilers
probably isn't the best idea to celebrate someone buying the game...?

No spoilers. If you're talking about the brief flashes - It's the dancing Vita/64gb card loli (link removed so your mind doesn'r wander :p).
I could change it to something else if it's somehow too similar to a major spoiler or something. Admittedly, I haven't been past the 1st chapter in DR2 yet, so I kind don't know what you may be referring to.

EDIT. GIF REPLACED

...are you sure about that? I'll take your word for it, but it really does look like 'you-know-who'

**Fully spoilered both of my posts. Also saw your pic so I'll take that as enough reason, though I doubt this will be the first time this comes up.

does that DR gif have spoilers?

No. BUT I acknowledge that it did have similarities to someone. Honestly wasn't meant to be taken that way, but I can see how a brief glimpse may give people the wrong image. My bad. FIXED NOW.

Thanks for the heads up. I see how it could look similar. You should edit your post to remove "that persons" name too, just in case someone curious ends up clicking it. (I removed it from the quote above). Good thing it isn't peak traffic. So damage control was fairly easy. Phew.

Good call.
To shizuka or anyone else who's played through Demon Gaze, any tips for astarte (or whatever the naked demon girl's name is)? She just blows up my assassin and mage and I just can't keep up.

First of all, try to get a full party, or at least as many party members as possible. Get your future party in mind and start with the members that'll make the most difference at the beginning, starting with a damage dealer followed by a healer.

My party is:
Gazer/Paladin/Assassin
Wizard/Healer

So I have a full party. I'm only like level ~14-15 though so perhaps I'm underleveled? I totally cruised through basically everything up to this fight.

You have a great party, it could be your equipments. Have you been getting good equipments from the seals?

They're okay. Not spectacular. I think I'm going to try to get to like level 18 and get a bit more vit on my assassin and mage so that they don't get instagibbed. Hopefully I'll get some new gear by then, too.
 
Use this, it'll be your best friend while you're playing Demon Gaze.

Yeah I've been making use of that spreadsheet for effective attribute point builds.
Think I'm going to get my healer to 18 for Divine Armor since that looks pretty damn good. Everything else seems fine though so I think you might be right that it's my gear.

Pretty much everyone stopped talking about it after the very underwhelming PC launch. The game still has a very long way to go.

It's officially launched already? Holy shit the game is basically the same as when it was in "beta." I know some people like it, but this practice of releasing games way before they're done is worrying.
**Okay, saw your edit. Yeah, I get what you're saying.

What happened to Starbound anyway? Stopped hearing about it very ubruptly

edit: Oh, to clarify I was referring to the launch of the beta from last December. Still, progress has been quite slow and at times it seems as if the development team isn't sure what they want the game to be.

How about we make a "Vita Games 2015" topic like the Wii U one?

Sounds good to me :p. Why not also create a "Vita Released Games List" thread? So we could have a complete list of Vita games that are released :D(the thread also has to be updated every month ;P).

Europe?

You mean Europe*.

*Countries that are excluded: Belgium, Denmark, Finland, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Russia, Sweden, Turkey, or Ukraine.

I'm still mad at ASW USA. Really hate them :mad:

Also, you used the EU blog url with the Gematsu url. Just saying ;P

Yes, Arc System Works US can go fuck itself. I'm just glad that Aksys Games is still publishing their high profile releases, instead of their worthless piece of shit of a US branch.

Yeah I knew it launched in Beta, but it just seemed like there would be more rapid and iterative updates considering they already did Terraria and all.
 
So I like Binding of Issac, Spelunky, and Castlevania.
Will I like Rogue Legacy? I heard it's lacking in room and enemy variety.

I think if you liked those three, you'll almost definitely enjoy Rogue Legacy. It's nothing revolutionary, but it's a solid game that takes elements from the games you listed.

Thanks for ruining a perfectly fine gif, NormalFish

That's what I'm here for. Back home they call me "Gif Killer"

The thread here on GAF said that it would be available in Canada at least. Meanwhile in those European countries ASW pretends doesn't exist... :(

Oh, and it looks like they have an "answer":
https://twitter.com/Staz117/status/532604086844391424
...and they're still shit. How come almost everybody else can, but they can't? Why?

They also apparently have news about Magical Beat for Canada, so rejoice that you're almost out of this ugly mess.

And DXC, finally! Too bad that I missed it on the sale but will probably get it anyway, and it makes me happy that there's still hope for PSP games on PSN in the future for Europe.

Ugh they keep making excuses for their fictional problems that NO OTHER PUBLISHER HAS.

They are literally the only publisher that consistently releases games on PSN and XBLA only for a specific subset of countries in a given region.

It could be Remote Play, but I don't see a PS4 in that shot. Those are also development Vitas (notice the black trim) but that doesn't prove much as Lucid has worked on prior games on the handheld.
 
Thank you shizuka. My gear was absolutely the issue. both the gazer and my assassin were doing like 50% of their max dps. Also I think I got RNGed hardcore the first few times.

**Playing this game makes me want EO on vita, as well as a Stranger of Sword City localization.

Not really interested in the game, but this is still pretty annoying.

Have any VITA related black Friday deals leaked yet from any of the stores? Or should we just assume like last year that Amazon would be our best bet for VITA game and hardware deals?

Late but, around when would Amazon Black Friday deals for Vita (if any) start showing up?

DRPGs are my favorite genre, but we'll be lucky if we even get Moero Chronicles next year. I'm buying every single DRPG released for the PSP/Vita/3DS.

Unfortunately I think I'm going to have to go to PC for them once I play through this and EO. Just aren't very many on handhelds (that also get localized).

Does anyone know how is The Walking Dead Season 2's Vita port?

It's actually pretty good, at least for my play through. It ran much better than season 1 on Vita so I was pleasantly surprised. There were a few hiccups I noticed, but nothing to hinder playing it. I've had the same issues on the ps3 version of season 1, so it's nothing crazy. Got it during the last psn sale when it was $10. Patiently waiting for season 3.

That one's not too unlikely after how DG performed worldwide. It doesn't have the fanservice that DG had either so it'd probably have wider audience appeal (unless I'm underestimating how much DG sold off of fanservice).

I would think just on Black Friday, and maybe some overflow into Cyber Monday unless they do some lightning deals beforehand. Most of Amazon's Vita deals in the past have been price matches on BF deals from other sites. So far every major retailer's ad has been released except Gamestop's but nothing Vita yet.

Hey, CanadaVitaGAF, I was just at EB Games and passed by some Miku 2nd boxes that said "available now." Anyone know if EB broke street date?

Thanks, I guess I'll jump in then. If it's anywhere near replayable as the games I mentioned, I should easily get my money's worth.
 
Wait, Castlevania: The Dracula X Chronicles (EU) now says it works on Vita and PS TV? It shows up via search on my PS TV, too.

Now it's no longer on sale, of course...
 
The new fast forward feature in Spelunky Vita is really neat, and it's wonderful being able to see how others played the daily challenge. Extremely well executed.

RCR DX is neat.

Shame Terraria isn't cross buy on PS4, can I sync my vita world in it?
