US - PSN FLASH SALE

Okay so I've opted to get Muramasa Rebirth from the sale, and I'd like to get 1 or 2 more games from the sale. This is what I've narrowed it down to:

Code: Realize
End of Serenity
Mind Zero
Norn9
Me and My Katamari

What would folks here choose?

Norn9 is kinda short, but has 9 routes. I finished 2 in about a day or so. Also, know that it is very character driven, which I enjoyed a lot so far. So if you are looking into some great plot, it might not be for you.
 
Okay since there's not much time left, some thoughts?

Uncharted 1 (PS3)
Fatal Frame
Fatal Frame 2
Fatal Frame 3
Pac-Man World (PS1)
Prince of Persia Revelations (PSP)
Prince of Persia Rival Swords (PSP)
Ridge Racer (PSP)

I already have some key games in the sale, just want to know about these.

I don't have a PS4 (even if I plan on getting one... some day) and SAO didn't impress me as much when I saw footage even though I love JRPGs so I decided against it.

Because Nintendo sort of has FF in their hands now I've thought about grabbing the games finally now that they're back at a dollar each... except I'm not a horror person. Maybe I should just not bother. Someone said the emulation isn't so good?

The PoP games got good reviews and are based on the second and third in the trilogy, and I've heard awful things about the HD versions so I want to go with the PSP versions instead.

Pac-Man I've wanted to play for a long while so that's basically a lock. Same with Ridge Racer. I actually have RR6 and RR7 already also. :P Just only played a bit (and got decently good) at 6. Always wanted to play Ridge Racer 3D but the 30fps seemed a bit of a turn off where as RR PSP is 60fps.

And I want Uncharted 1 because it's the last of a lot of the Crash and Jak vets before they left so the flavor will be a bit different than the sequels and also I want to at least give the first a shot.

Any opinions would be welcome and helpful.

Code:Realize, Norn9, and Me and My Katamari are the only real choices. I picked up Code: Realize and Norn9 since I've had my fill of Katamari games, and the Vita one is supposed to be good but not one of the "best" ones.

Really enjoying Code: Realize so far. I don't know much about Norn9, but I'm interested in the setting.

It's uhh, portable SSD. Personally it's the way I play it now. It's great to have portable.

Lol yeah but not every game translates well in portable form. That said, I looked up the OT for it here and it got really good praise, so I picked that up and Muramasa. Certainly much worse ways to spend $10....

Those 2 games have been installed on my Vita since I bought them on release date. Good choices.

How is Super stardust delta for the Vita? I have the ps3 version and really enjoyed it, is it worth getting in portable form?
Click to expand...

it's superior to the ps3 version, which is fantastic, imo. The biggest difference is that they made it only 2 different elements/weapons rather than 3. Now, this sounds like a huge issue, like they simplified for portable or something. But instead, it actually makes the game superior in my opinion (and i know i'm not alone in this). Definitely worth getting.

I really enjoyed Hollow Fragment when I played it on my Vita and while it has issues with the story and characters, the core gameplay and large expansive world make up for that in spades. Highly, highly recommend Hollow Fragment and the PS4 version is the better version thanks to a stronger translation and some more story content.

Because Nintendo sort of has FF in their hands now I've thought about grabbing the games finally now that they're back at a dollar each... except I'm not a horror person. Maybe I should just not bother. Someone said the emulation isn't so good?

I own all three games but never got around to playing them on my PS3.....but heard really great things about the series. Recommend you put the three bucks and get those games :D.

The PoP games got good reviews and are based on the second and third in the trilogy, and I've heard awful things about the HD versions so I want to go with the PSP versions instead.

What you heard is correct; the HD versions are bad versions of great games. Rival Swords has some extra content and despite an iffy frame rate at points, it still runs quite well. Revelations is a port of Warrior Within and its a good port.

Pac-Man I've wanted to play for a long while so that's basically a lock. Same with Ridge Racer. I actually have RR6 and RR7 already also. :P Just only played a bit (and got decently good) at 6. Always wanted to play Ridge Racer 3D but the 30fps seemed a bit of a turn off where as RR PSP is 60fps.

Pac-Man World is more or less Crash Bandicoot but with a bigger focus on 2D action. I really liked my time with the game as controlling Pac-Man is a lot of fun :D. Love platformers to highly recommend it.

Never played Ridge Racer PSP yet (got it in the sale) but its a lot better then the native Vita version, so while its on sale, give it a look :).

And I want Uncharted 1 because it's the last of a lot of the Crash and Jak vets before they left so the flavor will be a bit different than the sequels and also I want to at least give the first a shot.

My answers are in the bolded; hope they help :D.
 
Man, that Transformers game is better than I expected. I heard good things, but didn't think it would be this great. Camera is a bit too close to the character for my liking though.

My favorite thing is to hear Peter Cullen do Optimus Prime without the HORRIBLE live action Transformers dialogue. It was so disheartening to hear Optimus shout "I'LL KILL YOU." in that last one.

I am also glad that Frank Welker can still do classic Megatron. I played the original Transformers movie game on PS2 and Welker was Megatron in that, but was soooo different.
 
I got RIDE.

Its really a pretty solid motorcycle racer hidden beneath a shitty presentation. Graphics suck, music is god awful, audio is pretty bad but the physics are pretty good.

Can't wait to play them both, in particular I've been meaning to buy a physical copy of Muramasa for ages, but for $7 and change? No brainer.....

That sounds great. Stardust does seem to lend itself more to portable quick-burst play, so I can't wait to fire it up.
 
Man, fatal frame 2 is the darkest (as in absence of light) game I have ever played. I had to go into my TV settings, juice the brightness up and do the same in-game to be able to see trees of any kind.
