I added all the PSN IDs that were posted. My ID is TheGrimHeaper, if you couldn't figure it out. 
pfft
I guess it gives some games a cool look, but it's just distracting and a little ugly most of the time!
So im trying to figure out what to do next with my Vita. Currently i am making my way through the DLC that was on wipeout and i want to play the new levels for escape plan as well as finish up the DLC from Motorstorm. But after i do that... not much is happening. madden is coming out next month but there has been so little news about it it kind of makes me worried. I hope its what im expecting... i will be hooked if its anything close to the console experience.
heard Lego Batman was meh, waiting for it to drop below 10-15 before i even conciser it. i know the MGS collection is great but i already played it on the PS3 and dont have the desire to pay and play through it again.
....then there is absolutely nothing for a while so i was looking toward some psp games lol. Considering Daxter, never played it and im assuming its a pretty lengthy game?

The lack of a firm release date sucks, I'm glad this is still being worked on. I've heard great stuff about the original Wii game, so I'll probably get the Vita version. I think it's going to be PSN only, right?
And it looks like Ragnarok Odyssey is getting pushed into September. But I don't think XSEED ever announced a firm date for that either.
There really is a lot of excellent Vita content coming, but the wait for it sucks. I'm getting déjà vu, 3DS was in the same position last year. If SCE-A/J/E are smart, they'll copy Nintendo and drop the price by at least $50 to boost the install base.
Edit: Feel free to add me to your PSN lists, Reluctant-Hero

So developers are willing to make games for their new system and Sony is being reluctant about it? Have they completely forgot the whole point of make a game console in the first place?

It's a dying franchise, but I still want to see THPS HD make it on the Vita, as well. Anything to make Activision even more money. THUG 2 Remix was one of my most played games on the PSP, and just imagine Cross Play between the PS3 and Vita.

I love Borderlands and I'm looking forward to the sequel. But sometimes Pitchford can be an asshole. He mentioned that he'd love to see it on Vita but that Gearbox is too busy to do it themselves. Did he expect SCE to drop everything and call him immediately?

Does the Vita have any Fullmetal Alchemist Games in the works, archnemesis

Yes it does, but not for you sir.
The article says unfortunately Sony has been silent. WTF atleast they could say yes and figure out the details later. Saying yes and telling everyone about it on the Playstation Blog would make people go ape shit over the Vita. I am completely confused when it comes to what Sony is doing with the Vita. A game like Borderlands where you can play for hours on end would be a great thing for us Vita owners. Does Customer Satisfaction even mean anything to Sony.
I they're busy with console version and PC also how much did gravity rush and resistance sell?

Sony is just pulling another PSP at this point, only worse. The PSP was advertised and hyped like crazy months before launch. The Vita had its first commercial in the US, when, first week of February?
They are making these handhelds then ditching them shortly after in favor for their upcoming home console.

You killed Half Life 3 Vita!? You bastard!
It really sucks because I bought my Vita at launch knowing I should have bought the PS3 instead. I told myself that Sony has this amazing handheld that would allow me to Play PS3 games on the go plus original titles. I was bright eyed like a little school girl with a shiny $320.00 peice of awesome in my Game Stop bag. I know it is still early but I just dont see Sony pushing the Vita or doing anything to combat the low sales. Right now all it is is a Glorified PSP With a PS2 port being one of the most anticipated games and being hyped like its a reason to buy a Vita.
Watching the source code for Monster Hunter Portable 3rd G burn brought more happiness to my eyes than that game could ever do.
So ... Why are you in this thead? Four of the total 10 posts I know of that you've made on GAF have been in this thread.
And to think I wondered why some juniors are treated badly. SMH

You're a monster, Takao.
Either P3P or Riviera. I say Riviera because it's the first in the "Dept. Heaven" series of games.

Is anyone else in the same boat as me and not buying a new memory card until they get official price drops or a bigger size past 32GB is introduced? I have an 8GB right now, but with around 3GB left I can see this filling up with all the games coming out in the next six months. Also, I do not download any games unless they are only on the PSN.
Come on that is a huge risk for Sony at the moment to fund BL2. No other fps has sold particularly well on the vita and BL2 won't exactly be the easiest to make. Also it is only highly regarded in niche internet circles, unlike COD or BF and while it would be amazing to have on vita. No one should be mad at Sony or surprised why they didn't leap at the chance to fund their game for them. It would have to be extremely loving developed make a good borderlands 2 portable version. I'd like to see it down the line but even if it got the green light I doubt it would be made within 1-2 years anyway.
I'm really curious if the vita has a "locked" processing speed like the PSP did which they will unlock down the line once the new vitas have better battery life. That would help for a lot of these demanding games as well.

Vita pretty much had one of the best launches/first few months of any gaming machine so far (games-wise, maybe not sales-wise):

Metal Gear Solid Collection
+ some games like Shinobido 2, Ridge Racer (after patch & now that you can get the full package pretty cheap, at least in Europe), Touch My Katamari, Army Corps of Hell, Ninja Gaiden+, Resistance: Burning Skies etc. which, although nothing mind-blowing, can be enjoyable experiences
+ an awesome library of PSP games (which I doubt you have ever played or even glanced at with that kind of stupid attitude
), all of which Vita improves in many ways+ PS Minis
+ plenty of upcoming stuff like:
Orgarhythm
Sound Shapes
New Little King's Story
Little Big Planet

I have Uncharted on it, isnt that a game?
Borderlands 1 has sold over 6 million copies. It's not niche. Also, Vita has only had 1 FPS so far and it's from a not-that-well selling series (an unimportant sidestory at that from a B tier developer).
Freedom = $1.05

2 things: the first borderlands kinda ran a bit crappy on the ps3 so I'd be worried about how a borderlands game would run on the vita. 2) we've yet to see the unreal engine run well on the platform. Mortal Kombat is the only example I could think of and while the game plays just fine it looks AWFUL on the vita.......
id still probably buy it on the vita, though.
I don't think pushing the PSP in its early days helped when at the time the library was still fairly sparse. The early Vita's library is still way better than the early PSP library, but I think that you really need to have a certain number of sports titles out before a serious push makes sense.
I say that as someone who hates sports games.
Reputation dwindles with time. Like I said it would make much more sense to have a lot more standard and regular FPS on the vita first and then release a riskier title.
yep.
yep.

It is locked, but I think the clock speed is unknown. It is capable of 2GHz, but I imagine it being close to most smartphones nowadays, hovering around 900MHz to 1.2GHz.
