hey CivCity: Rome is fun, kinda.
And come one, I was in that thread too, they were what, 2 euros?
I can take risks with those prices!And neogaf is soo much better with all the doom and gloom threads?
Also im not taking it as face value, but you never hear of any other vita game doing that, even if a lie.

Its definitely fun, he is probably just complaining because he bought a game he is never going to play
And it was 1 buck. I literally gifted it away to 30+ people.For me, this thread is that already.
In my experience, with this climate, any attempt of a visible "counter-thread" will lead to another discussion that won't highlight any virtue.
Just my opinion based on what I have seen all these years.
Other than the clear rubber on the back my white psp go is still white. Had it for a few years.

I've been considering this. Need to find the time.

What's wrong with that? Just say it's a limited edition Ivory color. =P
We should rename it to "THIS THREAD CONTAINS REASONS AND IMPRESSIONS WHY YOU SHOULD BUY A VITA" then (more snappy of course). Otherwise people see this threads neutral headline vs "DOOM DEAD GONE OVER" headlines and of course the more vocal headline will be stuck in peoples minds.
Not to mention that I tend to read over threads that are constantly on the front page. New threads that pop up each week get more attention by bystanders than the regular threads which are mostly filled by the subcommunity.
Its just PR, and this forum is amassing a huge amount of negative PR and influencing people not to buy the console for invalid reasons.

It's just that with that thread you made me buy not one but three games in a genre I don't like because I couldn't decide which would be better for me and yeah, they were so cheap. I hope one day I can appreciate the genre.
Not complaining, just joking. I thought it was a good example to support your argument.

Fixed.
Also anyone else think having wow or something akin on vita would be like the ultimate game

Oh boy. The GameFAQs Vita board is a disgrace. I was bored and ventured there, possibly to read what others are saying about releases around the world, but literally more than 50% of the threads had the word "flopped" in it.
This kind of mentality definitely stems from big forums like GAF, spread to smaller ones and news sites and the like. Key thing to keep in mind is that, like it or not, a lot of these prospective buyers or forum-goers have a desire to be accepted in some way...either to others or themselves or both.
Having an item that's "in" with the so-called internet game enthusiast crowd fills an imaginary void for them. Another way of looking at it is the old (predominantly Western) mantra of "if it's not a blockbuster, it's shit". These may not be "dudebros" critiquing, but the mantra is still inside them in a different form, not as blatant. So what if, at the moment, the Vita is still building steam and not a worldwide, sell-out, your-mother-even-is-buying-one blockbuster hit? That makes it seen as terrible in many's mind, whether we know it or not.
So again, in summary, GAF does have an influence on many of this and many of the unbacked and boredom-fueled hate threads have to come to an end. Let's get rallying for that Negativity OT.
Which city building games did you try and not like btw? OT, but curious.While I am not against a Negativity OT, I think the mods wont agree on that with the "new news, new thread" rule.
A really well made and meaningful mod sanctioned troll ban trap "I love my Vita, here are the reasons why I think it's worth getting" thread is more likely to happen.
It will also give more positive vibes, thats probably the better idea to rally for. We need to bump that one every time another doomsday thread pops up.
I don't think it applies to ALL playstation products,my cousin's psp go is still white and i think these controllers have a cheap finish as compared to the handhelds.
Not saying gfaqs isnt crap, i just click on the topics i want to read. I know better than to read troll topics.
I go through forums very fast, and this thread just doesnt have enough content. Bored at work do that to you.

Not exactly the same case (pun intended) here. The White Vita has a different type of plastic, glossy finish, and in most of it's parts covered by a clear, transparent plastic. Much different from the thin-shell matte White DualShock3. The cheaper, thin quality of that model controller mixed with the type of material may give way to that. There's other first party controller models such as the "Metallic Blue" for example, that is made with a thicker, more quality shell. One way to tell is if you can see if it's one of the thin models is the red LED through the plastic while in a dark room.
Sorry, but saying that GAF is spreading the Vita Hate mentality is starting to sound a little tin foil hattish. These other forums would be the same regardless of GAF being a paragon of Vita love or in denouncing it in every post.
Actually i am working at home, because hurricane sandy shut down my building for 2 months.
Also because i will be working from home for the enxt 2 months, it is the reason i decided to buy my vita earlier.
->
A single person can move 500-1000 game copies, imagine what a forum( consisting of 4,000 people online at a time) that reaches 50k-100k people each day is doing.
The last doom thread talked about the Vita selling how many copies in japan? 4000? A single, BIG forum can have a LOT of impact on sales.
There's a reason that history repeats itself: People fail/refuse to learn from it.
Good lord no. No reason to infest the one thread where you won't be berated for your choice

Saying something positive about Sony in a 'Sony is Doomed' thread, I think.

Listen to this man guys. It's starting to make me not want to post in here if people spend pages just moaning about shit
Let ii runs its course. It's just fresh (after mostly positive news .. aka PS+). By the end of the week we'll be back to shouting at people to buy Velocity or Mutant Blobs.

Damn on the same day. RIP Pranay and Derrick, I like these guys.
I dont think the ban was that long. It wasnt anything serious (except they got to pay the Vita tax :-o)

Back to games?
Anyone here actually played What did I do to deserve this my Lord?
I want to talk about tactics
The game is great and I got another two challenge missions (D and S ranked respectively) done today.So I guess swapping memory cards messes up your icons. Think they'll add folders at some point?
Or more importantly, not show icons for cartridge-based games? I don't need all the games I've played taking up an icon even though the game isn't installed. It's silly.
Either way, I'm all sorted out on my 32GB now. Got something like 18GB free, so that should keep me going for a while.

It's free on PSN + next week.
I bought the AC Bundle so yes my Vita is white but I bought a ''starter'' kit yesterday,made by Biogenik and there is a black protective silicone case,car charger,screen protector,cleaning cloth,10-in-1 Travel game case and a carry all travel bag...the black protective case fits well around the Vita,except for the hole for the camera lens on the back but I will fix that...well worth it for 25 bucks I thought.

Aw, Derrick and Pranay banned? =/
Agreed. Totally makes me not question getting the game day 1 now. It's like SuperBot touched my heart with Sir Dan and KAt.
I remember playing the demo a few years ago and it was so much fun, but I haven't gone back to buy it. I'm sure if it's on sale during this Nisa sale coming up, I'll get it!Anyone here actually played What did I do to deserve this my Lord?

Neat. My PSABR interest has waned significantly but the more the merrier, and hopefully GR being free on + might push one or two over the edge on All-Stars
Not gonna weigh in on GAF mods/threads/trolls, not worth my time or effort
Nonsense. You should buy it anyway! Beacuse unless you're planning on subscribing to PS+ for eternity, Mutant Blobs is a game worth owning sans silly restrictions.
