This Vita bundle is insane... (Vita, mem card, AssCreed $179.99 WOW)

So, does the #YOPO work for the PABR code? Like, if I installed it on my PS Vita, would I also be able to install it on my PS3? Cause I'd rather use it on PS3 so I could do multiplayer.
 
Downloaded a bunch of games to my PS3 in preparation for this arriving tomorrow. I probably should have bought a 32 gig card instead of a 16. I'm close to the limit of the 16 already, but I guess I can use the 4 gig card for overflow.
 
It's only required for 30-day trials. I put my info in, redeemed the codes, turned off auto-renewal, and deleted my info.

Can I input the 30 day trial one after the other?
Does the credit card have to be a valid info?
Yeah I don't really want to put my real cc info..

Really is awesome tech.

It is...when I first opened it I was in awe how the built quality is. The amoled screen seem to have better color calibration than most amoled smart phones too
 
Still pretty torn over this purchase.

The games I want won't be out until early next year, and I'm still wondering what changes Vita 2000 hardware revision will have?

You don't have PS+, any crossbuy games or any PSP/PSone game you always wanted to try but neved actually did?

There's a lot of content right now and the hardware is very very good. There's got to be something you like :P

They require a credit card? I've always used codes (although 1yr codes) and never put my credit card onto psn.
 
Didn't the PSP 2000 and 3000 have better screens and better battery life? And then the TV-out feature as well, so... ?

2000 used the same screen as the 1000, it did add a very limited form of TV output which then was expanded with the 3000. The 3000 itself added a microphone and a better screen. The Go added bluetooth syncing to a PS3 controllers, and the best screen yet. Battery consumption was lowered in the 2000/3000 units but they actually shipped with weaker batteries IIRC, lol.

But those retained the same pricepoint while right now it's clear that sony needs a price cut.

HDMI and better battery are the only enhancement I can think off and IMHO the battery technology is not there yet.
 
HDMI or Component out
Better battery
Worse or better screen (different type of screen used, smaller, wouldn't be surprised)

If there is a significant cost difference, I could see them use an LED Backlit LCD screen. It is a mature process and it is very reliable (Lifespan is 60,000-100,000 hours, which is 20-34 years of reliability with 8 hours of play every single day). While the screens are not as pretty as the Vita, they will guarantee play far beyond a consoles typical lifetime.

They also SIGNIFICANTLY lowered the build quality, taking away the metal cage that housed the console and took out all the metallic parts off the UMD door.
 
Huh?

What made the 2000 screen so much better than 1000 then?

Nothing, 2000 used the same screen as the 1000. 3000 used a much more vibrant display that removed some of the ghosting from those previous screen but had interlacing issues. Go used the 3000's screen but without the interlacing problems, and had the highest ppi.

The red GoW PSP was a 2000 right?

If so, the screen is way better than my 1000.
Taiko is a blurry mess with the fast moving notes, and was much, much clearer on the red unit my sister owns.

Yes a 2000, it was my pride and joy for a long time, but then I saw a 3000 and had to let it go. The 3000 screen was just so much better.

That too. Build quality and feel went way down with the Slim (2000). The original still "feels" like a premium product.

Oh definitely, 3000 and Go screens are an even greater improvement.
But the 2000 was also better than 1000, and from looking online, I'm not alone in my experience.

I dont remember the 1000 vs 2000 screen, but the buttons and size made the 2000 a must buy for me over the 1000.
 
People keep asking for TV out, did alot of people actually use that function with PSP? I just think its such an awkward feature with cable and defeats the purpose of a handheld. I'd rather them focus on a wireless solution for that either with PS3 or PS4.

I used it for awhile after getting my PSP 2000, but yeah it was a novelty more than anything else. I have to think blown up Vita games on a TV would look like poo.

PSP tv out was a lot better than Vita's because PSP had such a great lineup of exclusives that were not available on any modern day consoles then.

Vita's TV out would be pretty pointless, especially with Sony's recent emphasis on Crossplay.

I used it a lot. It reduces all of the ghosting problems, looked great and was very useful to take a break from programming on my laptop.

Colors and ghosting reduction were greatly improved.
Ghosting stayed exactly the same, there was some placebo effect (I originally convinced myself it looked better until I did a side-by-side).

And brightness comparisons only work if you had a brand new unit for both - LCDs get dimmer with age just like any other backlit-screen tech (even if internet is now trying to argue this is OLED exclusive "feature").

I did do a controlled side by side.
Ghosting is far less apparent on 2000. ( I actually had Taiko running on my 1000, my Go, and my sister's 2000 )

I never said anything about brightness though.

The best controlled test I've found was games like LocoRoco, or RallyX, where length of the ghosting trails is easy to compare 1:1 (and it's same for 1k and 2k, and notably shorter on 3k or Go (though still visible)).
Or just use the XMB, which tends to ghost on all PSPs (depending on the background color you use).

I never saw Taiko, so if it's indeed blurrier on 1k, maybe 2k only improved some colors, but not overall response rate.
 
I've gotten my Vita codes finally, but I'm still waiting for the Halo and CoDBLOPSII codes to come in. All I got for those two games are some strange major league gaming codes for something. I dunno.

The code situation is probably slow right now with all of their traffic, so there's no point in anyone getting upset, I think.
