This Holiday (Oct-Dec) is actually really good for the vita

Highlights:
Virtues Last Reward:Zero Escape
Persona 4 Golden
Assassins Creed Liberation
Ragnarok Odyssey
Playstation All Stars
Street Fighter X Tekken
Need for Speed Most Wanted
Silent Hill Book of Memories
Call of Duty......(If it isn't shit)

That's a good amount of stuff that I wouldn't mind playing.
With Bolded being must buys.

While on 3DS im seeing the big titles are
Pokemon Black & White 2 (I know it's not a 3DS title but still)
Code Princess
Professor Layton and the Mircale Mask
Paper Mario:Sticker Star
Virtues Last Reward: Zero Escape


I only used Amazon Coming Soon, so I might be missing some big titles.
Regardless it's good to own portables.

But the main reason I posted the list is because of just how radically the games are.
The vita is rolling out a lot more M rated and T stuff then the 3DS. Personally this is why I have always loved the Sony Handhelds, since they are much more geared towards older gamers. Don't take that the wrong way though not saying something like Mario or Layton is bad though. Just wanted to further cement why I think there's room for two handhelds.

Is that silent hill game going to be any good? I mean does it even look like it could be good given how shit the franchise has been lately? I thought the PSP game was kind of cool given the tech and controls of the thing but since Vita is a bigger improvement I want more than that now.

Also I'd put Most Wanted as a must buy too. I don't really care about racing games normally but Criterion is making it on par with the consoles, no reduced content or anything. That kind of effort on a suffering handheld should be commended.
 
I think you can summon other players into your dungeon to fight with you or something like that. I heard it on redsungamer awhile back. I might be a big fat liar though. <.<

So, is there anyone who still plays MK?

If so, add me for a few matches: SteeloDMZ. Let me know if you are a beginner or not.
 
Just wanted to know what they(you) think and possibly play some 2v2 with someone sometime.

I like the game on Vita better than I did on PS3.
I can't say I'm hooked and I'll buy it, but I'd actually consider playing it on my Vita now whereas I played 2 matches in the PS3 beta and promptly deleted it.

I find myself (again) wishing it had more than 5 characters, as the only 2 I actually will consider using are Kratos and Parappa and even though, I probably care more about new characters like Dante/Raiden/Ryu Hayabusa (if he's in)/etc.

I still have it and could be convinced to pop it in for a few matches sometime.
 
I thought you were joking too! Well until I googled it and found it does indeed have online features.

You can call on another player if you're in trouble. Apparently.
i'm glad you thought so then

That sounds weird.

Yeah, I'm playing a bit more on Vita than PS3, though the only thing I really don't like is how you pull off supers. Sometimes I find myself smashing down on the triggers to activate my super. Is there a way to taunt using the Vita? I couldn't find any option...

But yeah, Dante and Raiden look great, while Ryu will probably be great, too, considering his wide arsenal.

Sweet a new thread. My first post in the new vita thread is from my vita as i wait for my bio lecture to start. Fitting.

Hope we get some idea if Xseed will bring over YsIV soon(I'd guess so since I thought the other 2 did well) The video's coming out just get me excited for it.

It's pretty popular and the director of Falcom wants the game to be released outside of Japan too. I'm pretty sure it'll get a NA release. Not sure about EU though. ;P

Why is that girl in the video talking in "anime voice", it's annoying as shit.

Yes, swipe the left side of the rear touchpad.
 
If NFS: Most Wanted is delayed to next year (on Vita) I'll probably cry. The lack of footage or anything out of TGS is worrying me. I was so torn on getting LBP Vita over waiting for New King's Story but I can't wait - I'm getting LBP now and getting NKS digitally in October. Also I'm just about done the OT for New King's Story.. it'll be going up probably this weekend. It's my first OT so don't be too critical :p

It's a Western game, so it probably would get much time if any at all at TGS.

AFAIK, it hasn't been delayed and it still on target for a October release along side the other versions.

My hit list for the rest of the year...

September 25

LittleBigPlanet VITA (for those of us still waiting for a PSN release... ahem)

October 16

Ragnarok Odyssey

October 23

Zero Escape: Virtue's Last Reward

October 30

Assassin's Creed III: Liberation
Need for Speed: Most Wanted

November 20

Persona 4 Golden
PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale

I'm not expecting COD: Black Ops Declassified or SH: Book of Memories to be any good. JSR HD doesn't seem to be reviewing well.

Any other notable digital-only releases I should be keying in on? Clearly Retro City Rampage is a go if it gets a 2012 release date.

I now have Need for Speed: Most Wanted on my radar. So, that makes up 3 games that I'll most likely be getting for the Vita.

I really would like to know what is keeping this game from getting Microsoft's certification. At least that's what I keep hearing on why it is being delayed.

Glad to have a new thread that starts off with us being able to play PS1 games. Now here's hoping the next thread has a bunch of cross play games.

I have no idea and would love to know too but he did mention he knew the release date quite a while ago and was keeping quiet in the hopes of an earlier time but looks like he's giving in this month and .. announcing a release date. Just screenshotted:

Just thought that I would post to finally thank vitagaf for the threads. I purchased a vita right after e3 after much deliberation ( the ps1 classics and Jet set Radio HD along with the positive attitude in the OTs pushed me over the line). I have never owned a Sony console or handheld before my vita and I love it. I love using it to catch up on games I've missed like p3p and the MGS series . While waiting for new games and ports of games I've never played. It's just an all around nice piece of hardware and the wait for ragnarok odyssey jsrHD and p4 golden is killing me.
Feel free to add me, my psnid is the same as my username. I mainly play umvc3 but I would love some people to compete against in zen pinball.
 
This Holiday (Oct-Dec) is actually really good for the vita

Highlights:
Virtues Last Reward:Zero Escape
Persona 4 Golden
Assassins Creed Liberation
Ragnarok Odyssey
Playstation All Stars (if it doesn't suck, maybe.)
Street Fighter X Tekken
Need for Speed Most Wanted
Silent Hill Book of Memories
Call of Duty......(If it isn't shit)

That's a good amount of stuff that I wouldn't mind playing.
With Bolded being must buys.

While on 3DS im seeing the big titles are
Pokemon Black & White 2 (I know it's not a 3DS title but still)
Code Princess
Professor Layton and the Mircale Mask
Paper Mario:Sticker Star
Virtues Last Reward: Zero Escape

I bolded my haul for both systems; pretty even for me. Great time to for handheld gaming for sure.

Another 3DS game:

Adventure Time: Hey Ice King! Why'd You Steal Our Garbage?!

What kind of "Game Goods" would I earn for Uncharted: Golden Abyss?

You can trade bounties with people via near. It helps since those things can be really annoying to get! I still have a couple of sets unfinished, even though I've played through the game 3 times.

Ah, thanks.

I actually stopped playing, but in general, I don't do a lot (or any) social stuff on my consoles. I turned off Near, but that's actually incentive to try it out.

Has anyone ever creeped on someone they found through near? Someone near me in Ottawa sounds totally bad ass.
