There's supposedly some dispute over the Michael Jackson tracks in Vice City. Not sure how true or false those reports are.

I didn't even notice the date, lol. I'll leave it up cause it's funny. But yeah, quickest yet ever since the IGC thingy was announced
Yes. Old one was quicker and better. :I

Yeah, it's nice to see SA on there, but only VC could get me to pay $15. Maybe.

Why does there have to be a blockbuster every week? Are you done with all the Vita games? There is so much to take up your time that you can play exclusively Vita for a long while. What was released just in the West the last month or two is impressive. Look beyond just the West and there's even more.
There's constructive criticism of a topic and then there's biased exaggeration. Many widely praised platform libraries as a whole had a much worse first year. What's here on Vita, still not even one year yet in Japan, is very nice.
And I don't think there's been as many doom threads as of late.
Wasn't it already on Plus before? I could have sworn I have that game through Plus and have had it for awhile but I'm not 100% sure.

The euro store is bugged if you try to purchase an activator for a "full trial game" you just downloaded, you can't buy the full version 'cause it looks like downloading the trial you have already buyed the full verison, but keeps downloading the "full trial game" again and again not the activation file.
Trying to purchase Rayman Origins Vita but can't pay and it keeps downloading the trial version...

Ater you download a trial you have to start it and let it expire before you can buy the full version.
I can't find it on the store.
Black Knight Sword demo Its not bad but it isnt something that makes me jump to buy it.
+Great Presentation
+Great Music
+- OK Platforming
-Repetitive combat
-Enemy Design could have been better.
Maybe if the game fleshes out later I would jump on it but at the moment I'll be passing.
They should have also let me fight that first boss.

How much time needs to expire? 1 hour? I need to be playing or I just can open the game and wait to be kicked back to the Vita menu?
Is the Beatshapers collection compatable with Vita? If not entirely, can you pick and choose the ones that ARE, to download seperately and play on it? (Never purchased a PSN collection before...)
Was really hoping the "incorrect" sales last week for the SOE games (Like the Gundeadline collection, and Acelleration of Suguri X) would happen this week, but doesn't appear to be so. Bleh.
Black Knight Sword, a game from Grasshopper and DReality that didn't shoe-horn in Mature Language! AMAZING! (Still crazy violent though, eh?) Will give it a shot, though will probably actually buy on Xbox 360, assuming I like it. Surprised to see it come out for 9.99 too, especially since Sine Mora started life as a $14.99 game.
I'll have to look into Big Sky Infinity more... while I find the idea of a crossbuy shooter very appealing, and I find it's graphics to be more on the "actual designs!" side of the "bright colors and geometric shapes" stuff we've gotten in shooters over the past few years, I'm not sure if I'd be better off getting that, or just saving the money for something else, and getting Under Defeat HD a bit later...
Did anyone discover the differences between the Under Defeat HD Retail and Digital releases, btw? It still came with the patches and exclusive ship, like the physical retail, right?

Trials are 1 hour. For PS3 trials you can just launch them then quit and the timer will still continue counting down. Guessing Vita trials work the same way.

Lemme answer that.
The thing is, I can only say we've had maybe one or two blockbusters
Persona 4
Maaaaybe Gravity Rush?
No, I'm not done. Doesn't mean I don't want other games coming out.
I'm spending more time on older PSP and PSONE games than VITA games.
Not saying it's 'bad', but I still feel it's missing just that one game that will tip more people over the edge. If they're not going to go for blockbusters, I'd want them to release more interesting games on it like Journey and more indie devs.
Lord knows we won't be getting Dungeons or Warrior's Lair (was that the game?) FFX or any other killer app for awhile.
Maybe people are on Xmas break? It's been a non-stop barrage of VITA DOOMED threads for the past few months.
Kinda rambling here. I don't regret buying it (though I do think they should do something for us early adopters), but man do I want more stuff out there.
Lol, okay

And I still can't buy the PS1 games that were released last week on my PSP.
Oh, that's going to take...... time.
Lup Salad is fantastic by the way.
Haven't loaded Zanac yet.

I'm going to keep pestering them on Twitter in the meantime.
Of course, last night I went to a friend's to watch wrestling and he already packed his PS3 up since he's moving.

I'm sure I'm not the first to say this, but why does the new store interface take like 8 click-throughs before you actually download a demo. It used to be like 2.
Also, Black Knight Sword seems bad. Despite its interesting style it's a blurry eyesore and it has nothing resembling entertaining gameplay. Then the demo ends when something interesting might be about to happen. GJ, Grasshopper.

how is that possible?
You need 36GB free.
It takes up that much!?
It takes up 18GB but the stupid way that PS3 works means you need double the space in order to download and install it.
I think something is messed up.
I bought Fight for Fortune last week, but the game on the Vita Store says $4.99, and no red purchase bag.
If I look at the demo, it has the red purchase bag.
I wonder if someone new were to download the demo, would it be the full game? Nah, I'm sure someone would have said so.

My Zanac x Zanac review is up: http://putthatback.org/video-game-review/zanac-x-zanac/
In short: Get the game, its freaking awesome.

So anyone got any impressions on BigSkyInfinity yet? I was considering picking it up especially for the BOGO, but I'm not 100% sure yet. Trailer looks pretty crazy, but possibly good fun.
Can't wait for strangers wrath on my vita next week, also wish we could get some news on Rainbow moon vita, but that probably won't happen till sometime next year.

Is this some SCEE thing?
I assume not, there's already a thread for the EU 12 deals of Christmas.
Then what sale? I must have missed it.
IMpressions of this weeks games (Or, the ones I've purchased, anyway...)
Big Sky Infinity: First of all, why is there a "god D**n" in the "Peaceful" mode text for my "E for everyone" Game?! .... REALLY?!? *sigh* Is this a British thing? *shrug*
...Beyond that, the game is quite charming, and I like the variety in it's presentation and modes. The narration might be a bit over-looped, but I appreciate the nature of it. Can't hate anyone who screams out
or
, lol.
Seems like a great "JUST ONE MORE GO!" style of game, like the level-slope of a gemometry wars mixed with the ideals of a sidescrolling twinstick.... if that makes any sense.
I don't know how much I really FEEL the power-ups. And maybe this all has to do with the fact that you can buy in-game starbits (credits) from the PSN store for .99 cents... BUY YOUR WAY TO POWER! Of course, you can earn them through play, and the amount they sell for .99 cents doesn't seem like it should do much or ANYTHING... unless you spend a few dollars. But you can make as much in a few quick playthoughs!
It seems to have a variety of Jukebox tracks to unlock, as well. They seem to not only play on the title screen, but also serve as the BGM for the game as well. So it's a nice way to give some freshness to your somewhat samey (yet randomly generated) experiences!
Game seems to be 1player on Vita (but Vita seems to have a unique "Horse" mode that lets you send out challenges to friends, or the UNIVERSE!), 4p on PS3.
Black Knight Sword DEMO: Wow, it's a Ghouls and Ghost and Goblins-a-like, with modern day production values, lots of blood, and a narration! The demo might leave you thinking your knight is limited in moves, but reading the options reveals Magic, Sword Wave, Special Slash, and Charge abilities await use in the full game.
Well, that's dumb. SHOW us these things in gameplay, don't hide them in the "How to Play", how many people read THAT?!?
I really liked what I played, especially for a $10 game. Reminds me of GnG on PSP. The presentation seems very well refined, and it seems like the kind of game you don't really expect to be made too often now-a-days; arcadey, well-polished, and with a tight, focused gameplay that depends on developing substance to each attack given, rather than just spewing out useless attacks that'll never be used, because they overlap in use and effectivness. (Though I can't say this for SURE, until I play the Full Game.)

Oh, and on last weeks PSN Game Updates...
----
On the Page Chronica front, I shared many of my ideas with Red Hare Studios via Facebook, and they actually responded back (!!!), and asked some opinions on their upcoming demo for early next year. After that, they offered my a free DL voucher for the game to share with a friend, and then mentioned that'd they'd work on some of those ideas!
Very nice to see a studio willing to listen to it's fans / buyers, and I really appreciate their kind gesture. Now if only I had a friend with a PS3... XD
I'd be interested to see if any thing I mentioned gets worked into the game somehow, but I'm initally happy in even knowing it's recieved and in the mind of the studio itself, you know?
