All this avatar talk...

I'd change mine, but I haven't changed mine since I joined and have no intention of ever doing so. :p

Most Wanted and AC:L
Click to expand...

i'll be downloading most wanted too. i got ragnorak odyssey preordered cheaply through fs or bb (i forget), so i guess i can't use that as a psn release.

i'm interesting in ac:l, but i haven't played any of the assassin's creed games before and feel like it might be necessary. i know it's not out yet, but does anyone know much about it in terms of story? does it involve characters/story that connects to previous games?

I'm pretty sure ac:l is a standalone entry,it has a new protagonist.

Most Wanted was never even given a real release date no?
We've all been saying October because that's what retail listed it for.

why would it not release with the 360/ps3 versions? criterion is developing it, so wouldn't the game be finished along with the console versions?

that's good to hear. if it gets decent reviews, i'll check it out. i have somehow avoided the assassin's creed games and i'm not sure why.

Anyone know how I can subscribe to Plus with just a Vita and have it count towards the $20 back promotion?

Have you tried buying it through Media Go on PC? That might work. Otherwise, don't know of another way, but their might be hope with the PSN store re-design this month.

Out of luck unfortunately, as PS+ isn't on Vita til November.

Maybe you could buy some PSN credit and use a friend's PS3 to log into your PSN account and buy PS+? That'd work. If you know anyone with a PS3.

Looking forward to the demo. Crazy how divided the opinion is. Have a feeling I will like it as I am actually craving a loot dungeon crawler.

Edit: Future Lab has a third game in the works for PSM!? Nice, they are proving how easy the development is on this platform.

I had fun with the demo. The graphics are ok too. Seems like a fun game to play with others.

btw .how are you doing with Folklore?
Click to expand...

Didn't get to play yesterday (Purchased Malicious and Tokyo Jungle to start the 100 - 20 back thing), and RE6 today means I'm duty-bound to play with a friend or 2 (-_-; )

Hopefully, tonight, I get to stick to that "one chapter a day" type schedule with it, reminds me of the fun I had playing PSU's story mode (I like episodic-natured SP modes...)

Chp. 2 on Each character, think it'll be time to Chp. 3 with Ellen...

That puzzle at the end of Silent Hill: BoM's demo is killing me. I'm enjoying the game I just don't know what to do with Ankhs.

Let's say I slept for the last two months.

What have I missed concering released software that I should try?
All I know is that I don't like LBP and that Fifa 13 is too similar to Fifa Soccer.

Any suggestion?
Thanks!

I don't think Plus is on Media Go since it's not for the PSP.

Yeah that should work. Now I just gotta find someone with a PS3.

This is why we need a web store Sony

You guys, I can only afford one but I can't choose between Ragnarok Odyssey and Assassin's Creed Liberation this month. I'm... kind of leaning RO since I'll probably grab AC3 on consoles, but I dunno... thoughts?

No offense to XSEED, but Vita really needs AC3:L to sell. If it doesn't that's pretty much the end for western support on this thing.

Ragnarok Odyssey comes out sooner. And you can play with us. Ubisoft games do tend to price drop awfully quick too. Plus you can be sure that Ragnarok Odyssey probably needs the sale more than Assassin's Creed which is what everyone will get anyways.

Vita bros just a tiny update - more adverts in UK tv, channel 4 this time. Focused on games (amazing) and touted it as all this (console games and memory card) for only £229

I may be remembering wrong but I'm pretty sure that's a little less than launch? Especially in a bundle.

Knowing almost nothing about the two games, AC:L probably is not very long or replayable so you might me able to find it used down the road.

The real answer is, buy both + NLKS for that $20 back in November.

EDIT: Top of the page!

Buy Mutant Carls Attack and Alien Zombie Death (sorry no love for velocity from me >:p )

RO! Support the smaller game! One sale for it will matter more than a sale for AssaCreed.

Plus, if you plan to play MP with people, it'll be best to get in on the ground floor, before everyone plays with robotic-clone builds and get jaded and angsty.

So, then, every game on Vita would be primarily japanese productions, and the entirety of JP releases would get US releases too, as that'd be where the majority of game creation would go from?

I'd be alright with this! *ahem* Seriously though, I'd think that responsibility also rest on the sholders of NFS, COD, maybe Killzone...

Is that the LBP + FIFA + something else (Uncharted?) one? That ones is a hell of a deal.

Good to see SCEE are advertising a fair bit. Been seeing the LBP advert a fair amount on C4 and E4. Seen the general Vita advert a few times too.
