Unless my pre-order code from amazon shows up and magically gives me the 12 characters and 38 alt costumes, I'll be returning my copy as "not as advertised" to amazon for a full refund, I believe.
Nothing is wrong with it, Vitacat, unless you bought it expecting to get the 12 characters (PS3) and 38 alt costumes (PS3/PSVita) free.
If you don't care about those? You're good to go.

Well okay then, your logic just convinced me to go digital as well!

I really really need to buy a game today. Help me decide GAF! I'm thinking of either SFxT or Silent Hill: Book of Memories. I love MK and UMVC3 on the Vita. i'm also a big fan of Silent Hill AND hack and slash games. so which do i buy?
Annnnnnd there goes any incentive I had to spend money on this with a PS3 copy already.
But you know you want the CE.
I'm still deciding, as well.

Exactly.
I bought it because I figured I wasn't in a hurry for the finished content on my PS3 disc... not at a $20 premium... but if I could get a copy on Vita and get that content I feel I was owed on PS3? Fuck yes.
But alas, right now? It's a no go. My current theory is that Capcpcom fucked up the batches of codes and printed the preorder codes on the slips and gave retailers the retail codes for preorder distribution...
However, again, if that's not correct? I have enough fighters, and while I thought SFxT was fun and was looking forward to the patch, I will not allow Capcpcom's fuckups to cause me aggravation and frustration yet again. The game will go back and I will get my refund.
Any of you US Vitacats tried out the new PSMobile games yet?

Yo, I just got back from playing the first level of Orgarhythm and omfg the game is awesome. When you get into the rhythm of it it flows fantastically and the music gets fucking crazy and you are kicking ass.
Love it. Can't wait to keep playing. Also there are leaderboards in here, which is awesome.
Also, in other crazy news: Virtue's Last Reward just shipped from Newegg and should be here by the weekend. YEAH.
Videogames. So good.

Need for Speed seems like a good game to get digitally.
I've got both and get more fun out of BoM. More things to do especially if u like Dungeon crawlers. Compared to MK I think SfvT is better. Doesn't top UMvc though.
Unless someone already mentioned it, if you go on your PS3, you can get the SFxT swap costumes for the original cast for free. The SF/TK Swap Costume Complete Pack is located in the Grab Packs section.
Whatever. This nonsense could've all been avoided if DLC shit didn't exist in the first place.

I'll probably buy that eventually, but I'm not entirely sold on it yet. I never did play Burnout Paradise even though I bought it.
Definitely missing out there, BP is amazing
I played the old ones to death, but I'm just not really a racing fan in general. The novelty of crashing cars kind of went away for me.
The Super Monkey Ball demo has convinced me of two things:
1) The Vita's joysticks are horrible and are completely unsuitable for high-level hardcore gaming, and
2) Every single game needs to run at 60 fps, and if you disagree then you should find a new hobby instead of ruining mine. Seriously, this thing is so gorgeous to look at in motion that I find it hard to justify ever playing anything at 30 fps ever again. I'm seriously considering cancelling my Soul Sacrifice and Tearaway (since I doubt that'll be 60) preorders after playing the Monkey Ball demo. Like, I'm totally not even joking.
On another note, it's nice to see that the Vita store FINALLY has screenshots up on some games' pages! Now they just need to add screens for every game, and let you view game trailers directly on the game's page, and throw in wish lists, and they'll reach the lofty standards set by the 3DS store! *snicker*

Frobisher Says is REALLY fun! Any idea on how many mini games there are? It seems like you unlock them as you go. The only things that aren't responsive are the color ones, because lighting is an issue, as others have said.
Gonna try unlocking stuff in RCR free roam again and see if I can get it to save via the story mode auto save ticking. Really annoying that you have to do it that way though. I got so tired of trying to remember where stuff was with the terrible in game map that I'm starting to reference this digital version:

Still doesn't give me the 12 characters on PS3 for free since I bought the Vita version though! >_< (Plus I'd already bought them :|)

Same, the in game map is absolutely terrible and impossible to navigate with. I kept trying to find the damn arcade, now I'm going to mark it on the map..
Would you recommend the game? I feel like it might not hold my interest for its entirety, a game based on a single mechanic. Not at $29.99, anyways.
Seems a bit silly for something i can't see any difference between.
If you don't like arcade-style games that focus on a single mechanic then I probably wouldn't bother, although it also includes a bunch of minigames that mix things up. Though if you're interested in trying the Monkey Ball series for the first time, I would suggest starting with Super Monkey Ball 1 and 2 on the Gamecube. They have much better level design than any of the later games and they control best with the Gamecube controller.

Now Carl, its not nice to tease your fellow Vita bro's, you know we all have to stick together.
Although I do have a guilty secret. I have not and never will buy MBA. I dont like platformers.
That Retro City Rampage map is surprisingly small, considering how often I get lost.
I'm envious of your lack of acuity.
Get out.

But but but...solidarity against the unwashed hordes....and stuff......
I cant help it, it is a personality defect rare in gamers... I dont like sidescrolling platformers, and I dont like Japanese stuff.

I'm only messing with you
No it's fine, it felt good to get that off my chest!
At least I am not as grumpy as Lucha.
Seriously though, I like that you champion stuff.
Couldn't take a measly $3.91 hit for your fellow Vitabros?
Heh, only reason i call out "Mutant Blobs" to everyone that gets a Vita, is that i have found it has a lot of appeal to many different people. Showed it to my sister, her fiance, and my girlfriend and they all liked it. I love it. LOTS of people in here love it. It's a good game that a lot of people like. It helps that it's incredibly cheap too.
And also because i absolutely love DrinkBox and the games they make, and think they are a studio to keep an eye on in the future, so every copy of Mutant Blobs that sells is good for them

At £5.49 for a genre I dont like on a memory card I have to juggle with, I just cant bring myself to do it.
Guess I should be labelled a Vitacousin instead

Yeah I know, I read this thread everyday, I have seen all your posts lol (and that is a feat in itself.)
I am sure my wife would like it, but damnit, I bought this Vita so I could play games and read GAF whilst she is using the TV.
Nice one. Let us know what you think. Please don't kill me if you don't like it
At $4 the worst you'd have to fear is a stern look of disapproval.
