I'm sure this has been mentioned before but is Uncharted more expensive than other games because it needs a 4GB game card (its 3.3GB), while all the other launch games can be put on 2GB cards? Or is it just because people want Uncharted and are more likely to fork over the extra cash?

Probably a combination of both, but mostly the second option. Capcom used the same bullshit excuse with Revelaitons, but they seemed to listen to reason and lower the price down to $40.

Edit: Didn't realize there was no 2gb card, so all because of the second option then lol
 
Well, just paid for the early release bundle... kind of annoyed by just a 4gig and they pack in game... but I wanted the thing early.

Wondering if I should have went a different direction...

You should. Now you only got 4gb or you need to pay another $32 for the 8 or even more if u want 16gb or the 32 one.

I doubt it has to do with the size of the card. Usually those are just price markups on memory to get more money off of larger amounts. In terms of Uncharted I believe it's because its pretty much considered the flag-ship game for the west.

I think Sony said they will eventually allow games that are up to 32GB in size, but have restricted it to allow the system to progress over time. Can anyone confirm this?

I didn't really put any thought into it... complete impulse buy.

At the moment I told the guy to ring it up... seemed like I was saving money somehow. But now I'm wondering what the heck I was thinking lol.

I'm not sure but I tough the 3G version can't play online using the 3G network..
 
Yeah, it just points out how stupid the whole concept of the FEB is. They should have just released it on the 15th for everyone, cause it's getting worse for the early adopters.
The point of the bundle lies in the name of itself (First Edition Bundle). If everyone gets all the budles together it kinda defeats the purpose of the people getting it First.

It's not a terrible deal if you are planning to buy a 16 or 32Gb memory stick.

First Edition Bundle has been renamed to First... Except for People Who Ordered the Standalone Wi-Fi System from Amazon.ca on February 7th & 8th in Which Case You're Actually Second... Edition Bundle.
 
This thread makes me realize I should probably do at least some basic research... lol.

I don't even know what the heck 3G is. haha
:(
 
Waiting for the Playstation blog post that says because of the increased demand, they're moving up the release of all units to the 15th

*crosses fingers*
 
Where'd the list come from?
I'm assuming someone logged into the US Store from a North American Vita and checked out what PSP games were available.

Still no confirmation whether other games can be accessed via Download History or via purchase through PS3. The list is most likely incomplete as of right now.
 
Gamestop only wanted to give me $25 for my PSPGo. I took it to a mom and pop store and got $50 cash.

Yeah but GS has a $25 trade in credit bonus going on if you trade it towards a Vita. I dumped my old slightly worn out PSP and old DS Lite and got $110 credit towards my Vita.

So I'll be pissed if Amazon ships out Vita's early in the states too!

Just checked my download list on the Vita. Games that aren't on the store show up, but they're marked as unable to be downloaded on the Vita.
 
Wow, really? Haha, have you been living in a dark cave for the last 10 years? :p

I just read the OP and realize I need to go switch some things around. I can wait a few extra days, and not get stuck with a crappy 4GB and game I don't even want.
 
Lacks compelling character/art design, "old-school" gameplay. Do people even buy platformers that don't have Mario on the cover these days? By most accounts, the Rayman titles are quite excellent platformers, and even though I'm sure I could enjoy it, I can't bring myself to give enough of a fuck to do so. To be fair, I haven't cared about platformers in a long time, but most games lacking a style that appeals to me wind up getting passed over, sometimes regardless of critical reception.
Wow..... Someone has no creative mind.

It better be...No Tits? No vc2? There will be tears Sony!! Big MANLY TEARS!!!!!

Edit: Tits is in there. Fail me.

Correct. Actually, it's a Japanese Vita.

Download history is viewable on the Vita but not all PSP games can be accessed that way. Having a PS3 doesn't help. The list might be updated, but currently they are the only PSP games that can be played on the Vita by any means.
 
tits is in there (under "L" for legends of heros) and xseed dropped price so im def going to grab me some tits day1

Yeah i picked up TiTS and Ys Chronicles today because they were on the special offers list. Wasnt sure how long that would last so just bought them.
 
It's not even officially out yet. How about we just wait before freaking out?

The problem is that without any official communication going on it's left to us to piece together what's up. And then freak out. But I'm sure the list will increase as well.

I'm actually nervous about this now. I deliberately stopped playing on heaps of titles to have a fleshed out vita library day one. I also have a buyer for my go....
