I'm okay with them too, although both the 3DS and Vita could do better than what appears to be a PSP game or early iOS title.

Oh god, they're bringing wonderbook to Gamescom too -_- I'm REALLY hoping they don't dedicate an entire half hour or whatever to it, although they probably will since it's being developed by SCEE anyway right? Sigh.. We just want Vita coverage, FFS. We still don't have ANY gameplay for CoD Declassified, not even a screenshot. NOTHING. They did the same thing for Agent, what a joke.
Oh well, at least we're getting some gems on the Vita soon like New King's Story, Persona 4 Golden and Ragnarok Odyssey

The 14th of August right? Bring on the new games. I think Sony announced more things at GC than E3 in the last years.
Has it worked in the past? The PS3's Content Manager is really finicky for me, and unless I'm downloading a Vita game specifically, just trying to get my Vita to connect to transfer movies and PSP games takes multiple attempts.

I'm thinking of getting a screen protector for my Vita, any suggestions?

Get the official one. I've never had an easier time putting on any screen protector before. Definitely seems worth it

Europe will get it later than US.

I don't recall really, I assume it did. Other ports works fine.

Will take a look at Ebay as everything is overpriced in the local stores.
I completed Puddle and wrote my impressions down a couple of pages back in this thread. I enjoyed it a lot and thought it was fun to play.
I suggest you to try the demo since it represents what the game is about rather well. If you like the demo, i'm convinced you'll enjoy the full game.
I have no idea if this is a common thing or not, but has anyone else noticed that when the Vita screen is black, you can see this sort of pixelation in the screen, generally towards the right? It kind of looks like this:
Of course, this isn't an issue any other time, only when the screen is completely black. Just thought it was weird.

Well I guess when I think about it I'm not totally opposed to the idea, I just hate seeing stuff like Lego Batman 2 where the Vita version is a port of the 3DS version instead of the console version. It just seems so lazy to me.
But, in a more general sense, I feel like the 3DS and Vita are different enough platforms that games should be developed with more thought given to the individual platform instead of just trying to make one version for both when it clearly doesn't make sense from anything but a business perspective.
Honestly when I think about it I'm probably just expecting too much from third parties developing games on dedicated gaming handhelds in the year 2012.

I noticed this when I first turned on my Vita. Not noticeable while playing games, just when the screen goes completely black. I thought mine was broke at first, but now I think it is jsut part of the OLED tech.
Probably Bjorn from Peggle...

Lack of media for upcoming Vita games is baffling
FIFA 13 is coming out in about 7 weeks, there is no footage at all. I remember when the first FIFA came out for Vita, the developer said for future Vita FIFA#s they are looking into adding cross platform play, but so far there has not been any info on that so I am going to assume it's not happening.
Assassins Creed comes out in around 11 weeks, and all we got was a small gameplay clip. Apparently there is also multiplayer butthere are no details on that.
Need for Speed Vita port also comes out in around 11 weeks, and there is no information on this game at all. I remember seeing a job listing from Criterion that hinted some PS3/Vita connectivity.
Call of Duty Black Ops Declassified will be out near the end of the year and there is no media on this game at all except for the logo. All we know is the games story may relate to the other entries, the missions will be more byte sized similar to Unit 13 and there will be multiplayer.
Hopefully Gamescom next week will have media for all these games

Ac:l and cod:declassified are at gamescom maybe fifa and nfs vita are shown there too?Would be best for sony to start the big(?) marketing push for vita around the time of release of lbp vita
oh god not Peggle, please...

Don't worry, it'll be PvZ. It's their most recognizable franchise these days.

Wait.... What version of firmware?
Dang, I just checked. I was hoping 1.8 silently slipped out. =P

Do you mean this
Pretty common thing with OLED screens, my Galaxy S2 has it too.
They're our OLED splotches.

I've really got my hopes up for Need for Speed. I've been itching for a more traditional racing game on Vita, that isn't blah or devoid of content.
Oh, and where's the demo for Sound Shapes? I've kept in the dark about the game, and guess I'm going to have to watch a Youtube video to see what it's about.

Lol if OLED tvs have this problem too.
Damn that would suck so bad
So..pac-man will be the Ouya..but not on Vita. :|
It'll most likely be a reskinned port of this
with better framerate(if you are too lucky).

I haven't tested it yet, but I've heard if you hit down on the dpad, this un-equips your weapon. Will try to tonight and report back.

Hopefully we get some news next Tuesday from the event. I just picked up a used 3G Vita from Gamestop last week for $219. The thing is in excellent condition and really have no need for the 3G but couldn't find a used Wifi since I wanted to keep the costs down. I only paid $50 out of pocket since I used trade in credit.
I originally had the Vita on release day for a month but had returned it back to BBY within the return policy since I was more eager to build my new gaming PC and use the funds towards that.
I'm hoping we get a few things:
-Vita PS1 FW Update
-Gaikai streaming capabilities for Vita and PS3
-iPhone/Android app for the U.S.
-Soul Sacrifice
-Unlock remote play - this would be a huge selling point. I've tried the few titles that work with this right now and it is not bad, but graphically wish it was better.
-Killzone Vita - I would love for this to be back to the isometric view on the Vita like Liberation or a 3rd person shooter like Resistance on the PSP. We need some different experiences for some of these franchises.

Soul sacrifice has a western release for march 2013 and we haven't seen anything worth mentioning of killzone vita apart from that it is a fps and has some rts elements

It's a difficult question certainly. I'd rather see better versions of 3DS games, than worse versions of PS3 games, for two reasons. I like to think I'm putting my time in the best version of a game, and I like that in those instances they should generally have been developing specifically for handheld gameplay.
Personally, I expect that to be ultimately all the Vita is going to get outside of Sony stuff.
