So I just used the content manager for the first time. I wanted to back up my saves and maybe copy over a few pictures. Why is it that once I plug in my USB cable to the PC, the screen on my Vita gets so unresponsive? Does this happen to anyone else?

I use content manager but haven't noticed any unresponsiveness.

 

[whitehawk]

My PSP Go and Iphone 4s says otherwise.

Nope. I hate that when the iPhone is off, the black screen doesn't blend with it at all, nor does the camera and earpieces.

 

[dallow_bg]

I like the contrast.

Since Zen Pinball 2 is being released this week, I need to delete something on my Vita.
I am thinking about Little Big Planet PSP and Modnation Racers PSP which I got for free after the armageddon.
Are they worth keeping? I haven't played them yet at all.

Otherwise I'm thinking about either GTA Chinatown or Vice City Stories. Havent' played them either.

I still haven't played Cliff Diving, Table Football or Fireworks. Only reason they are on at the moment is for the trophies. Are they quick trophies so I can run them through once and then delete them?

 

[Canis lupus]

What I should start: Gravity Rush, Wipeout or Dynasty Warriors Next?

Gravity Rush and WipEout in between.

I wouldn't recommend LBP PSP or ModNation PSP, I only tried LBP for 5 minutes, but it didn't click, so I immediately deleted it. Didn't even bother to download ModNation because the buzz about was poor.

I've heard weird things about VCS -- like that it doesn't benefit from the dual stick mapping because the game originally used the L button (hold) to initiate camera control? That makes it sound like the game would be awkward to play, but I'd still give it the nod over LBP or ModNation, personally. But if you're hurting for space, that one would be next on my list.

Give me wipeout, pretty please!! *__* xD

well, if you have some good time to play now i would go gravity rush. xP
if only a little go wipeout.
if you felling to kick some stuff go destiny.

At least this is how i would decide! xD

Only if I use my 3rd party USB cable, the orginal Sony one seems to work fine.

Is Zen Pinball 2 gonna be a 'buy once, play on PS3 and Vita'?

 

[Ponn]

Is Zen Pinball 2 gonna be a 'buy once, play on PS3 and Vita'?

Basically. Zen Pinball 2 is more of a free platform and you purchase the tables. Any previous tables you have purchased from Marvel Pinball or Zen will work with it across both platforms. Basically the way it should work is if you have purchased any tables from before on PS3 with the Vita download on tuesday those tables should be available for you to download to vita as already purchased.

Cannot wait, this will be my game for Sept. PSone update was great but this is what I was waiting for . Bought the Avengers tables yesterday and waiting to play them for the first time on Vita. Hopefully have some of you on my friends list playing for the leaderboards.

Hmmm... so that means the tables they gave us for PS+ should work? I'll try that out then, I guess.

LBP PSP isn't as good as the mainline games, but still fun. Feels noticeably scaled down. Not played ModNation, but as above heard it wasn't great. Vice City Stories is a lot of fun, one of the best in the series, but yes, the camera doesn't really benefit from the Vita at all. Much better than Chinatown.

As far as I know, the AR games don't have trophies at all.

Hey, fuck you whitehawk!

I love my white iPhone. <3

I don't really have an opinion over one or the other in regards to black & white handhelds/phones (both can look sexysmexy), but white is definitely the way to go for stuff like TVs and computers that gather a shittons of dust on them. Black TVs look so ugly even within a short time of not wiping the dust off. With white TVs, you don't have to be constantly wiping the dust off.

 

[Totobeni]

New screens for atelier totori
http://andriasang.com/con2k0/atelier_totori_plus_media/

They announced Atelier totori for Vita?

man I feel out of the loop with Vita news I used to be up to date with this shit. ( I blame Darksiders 2,Sleeping Dogs and Dark Souls Durante edition).

is there any other announcements ?Retro City Rampage release date? FIFA 13 screens/footages ?

 

[21st century cowboy]

I've been waiting months for zen pinball 2. I have all 25 tables, that I haven't even played that much on the PS3, ready and waiting on to be played on that screen.

Plus plants vs zombies table : )

How many white tvs are there?

 

[Famassu]

Unfortunately not too many. But there are some, even good ones (or at least good enough for me).

 

[corrosivefrost]

Arg. I'm running out of home screens!

 

[Carl]

Haha, no.

Of course not.

Fuck, i hate Fatman. Can't keep my aim on him on Vita >.<

 

[brentech]

Fuck, i hate Fatman. Can't keep my aim on him on Vita >.<

When he huffs and puffs you can fire off a quick 3-4 shots into him. Much easier than hoping to aim every shot.....assuming he stops at some point on every difficulty.

 

[P90]

I'm in need of some advice. I updated my Vita to firmware 1.80. I connected my Vita for a back up to my iMac running Mountain Lion (10.8.1). I opened up CMA. I got the prompt that I need to update CMA. I downloaded the update. The installer of the update keeps crashing upon launch. The installer even says it needs to crash and re-launch. Anyone else have this problem? Anyone have a solution/work around? Thx.

It's weird because i have no problem with it on console.

Typically, as soon as i complain about it, i can do it.

 

[OmegaZero]

You can roll into him or melee combo him to knock him over.
Claymores help too as long as you don't run into them.

Also, speaking of MGS:

Anyone know if KojiPro is still following through with their "all our future games will support transfarring" claim? It'd be nice to have a portable version of MGS:GZ, but with the lack of news about ZOE HD Vita, I'm worried.

I never had that problem. Reinstall it.

 

[Ben Morales]

Yeah, it's a rhythm game so you don't need to know Japanese.

Are the menus in Japanese though? I can read Save/Load in Japanese and Configuration but the rest is a crap shoot. lol

Yeah i've played it tons of times on PS2. Don't like using claymores because i forget they're there. I just go for shooting the shit out of him. Couldn't do it quick enough on Vita though. Done it now though.

Dunno about GZ.

 

[The Grim Heaper]

Yeah, they're in Japanese, but it's kinda straight forward for the most part. I believe each menu option has an icon that tells you what it is(music note for songs, cart for hop, house for diva rooms, etc.)

I saw that message on my ML. It installed ok even after the crash. Check the About CMA box. It should say 1.20.blah

Mine has been bad from the start. If I plug my vita in to my computer or my PS3 the touchscreen just stops working :|

 

[P90]

I never had that problem. Reinstall it.

Tried again. The installer keeps wanting to open folder after folder. It will not recognize CMA for an update either.

What happens if you change the Security setting to allow installs by unidentified developers temporarily ?

Mine says 1.10.4086.78.

I had to change the security setting to install. It still isn't working. FWIW, I have been having issues with a couple other programs not working with 10.8.1.

Ok, that's perfect! Thank you! <3

Loaded up Shinobido 2 this morning and started playing it... Hey! This game is fun! Decidedly last-gen to early-this-gen in terms of assets and design, and the boss fights can reveal the weaknesses in the camera/movement system, but screw it - sneaking up behind some disgruntled guard and disemboweling him before he knows you are there is a hoot! Don't know if I'll play it through to the end, but I'm enjoying it so far...

* full disclosure: I enjoyed Tenchu on the PSP, too...

Weird problem man, I hoped I could help you but don't use macs

Thanks. I have contacted (email) Sony for help. I'll see what they have to say.

 

[Arucardo]

Some time this month you'll be able to get PS+ at a reduced price, wait for that.

Does this also go for existing members? My subscription runs out on the 15th and I don't have auto-renewal on so maybe I can get in on this discount...

May have to reinstall ML if that is the case.

It's the Vita's finicky sticks, I guess.

Haven't had much issues myself except when it comes to sniping.

 

[The Grim Heaper]

Oh, welcome back, OmegaZero!

Thanks. I have contacted (email) Sony for help. I'll see what they have to say.

Contacting is probably your best bet, even if the response isn't too quick.

Got Metal Gear Solid HD thanks to the Best Buy deal! No rush in playing it but the price was quite good.

Also got a 16GB Memory Card. My original plan was to upgrade from 4 to 32, but the 16-one was for $40 and I'm getting all games through retail. Was fine with 4GB until the DLC for Ridge Racer ate nearly 1GB.

Now you can buy Mutant Blobs Attack! (If you haven't already)

I think so, the subs are stackable. I'll be getting 1 or 2 years.
