Okay, just got reacquainted with Uncharted Golden Abyss, the aiming wasn't as bad as I thought, just needed practice.

Yet I suspect I'll probably curse a lot during my crushing run.

I'm about 20 hours into Virtue's Last Reward. A couple of puzzles in this game feel like complete nonsense at first, then I read up on them and found I was reading the instructions wrong. I'm an idiot.

I was very surprised how little I cursed on my Crushing run. And that was doing it several months after my initial Hard run. The only real bits that pissed me off at all were the two swipe fights of hell.


In more important news however, I managed to put in a 4m+ score on TOM Blitz this morning while waiting for my train home from work. My previous best was a shade under 1m. I used the green totem and the max gem thing and I was level 16. That lot got me about 60% of the exp needed to level up! Well chuffed with myself after that lol. Also It's put me top of my friendslist leader board in this weeks game.

Yup.

those things just didnt make sense. Normal and hard, not a single missed swip. crushing.
fail - restart.... fail - restart etc etc. It drove me mad.

I have to many psp games sitting on my system that I can never decide what to play lol. I switch between P3P, Tactics ogre, tomb raider anniversary and killzone lib. Then il also possibly play some resistance online or more challange towers on MK.

I remember the simpler days of my xbox where all i played was COD or BF.

They wernt better days.... just simpler.

Its prob harder still because im really just trying to pass time till AC:L arrives next week.
 
GAH! Still waiting on that Amazon pre-order of Virtue's Last Reward aka "GIVE ME MY WATCH!" And with Liberation this week, it's pulling me away from Code of Princess/Saavy Style/3DS love.

Which is a good thing! Vita for life! (just revisiting Gravity Rush to pass the time, seriously considering double dipping on AC:Bloodlines...)
 
so I'm one of those who is waiting for the Europe release of Ragnarok and waiting for a date...

EU RAGNAROK RELEASE WILL BE THIS WINTER AND DIGITAL ONLY

So that probably rules out a collectors edition then.

Ahead of Ragnarok Odyssey’s release next week, we had a brief chat with Gung Ho about the European release.

They told us that they are working hard to get the game released for “Winter” and that they will give us a concrete date as soon as they have one, but it will only be getting a digital release.

The limited edition in the US comes with a soundtrack CD from the game, a packet of “monster cards” which contains 10 of the 50 trading cards from the game and also a “Mercenary Guide” containing artwork and tips for you in game.

Is digital only an issue for you? How much will this affect your decision to buy it?

Additionally, as I have been surfing the internet about Ragnarok I have noticed a few of you having queries about universal Co-op play, and Gung Ho told us that everyone “should” be able to play together, since the servers are all hosted in Japan for all regions.

I suppose we will know for sure next week when the game hits the US. Anyone getting it? I’ll be getting it myself next week, but in the meantime, let us know your thoughts in the comments, or maybe if you want to know more, check out our review by Vardas.

So this raises a few questions. If it is going to be universal Co-op confirmed when you guys in the US get it... I might import it then so I can get the Collectors Edition. Not only that, a Digital release only means PSN prices... ummm, might be the same price to just import it and not wait till winter!

I'm unaware of if it has any, but just be mindful of any DLC for Ragnarok Odyssey. You won't be able to buy/use it if you import a copy, unless your Vita is on an N.A. account.

Yeah, I've been thinking about that too. The only thing I guess I need to confirm is if the co-op patch is already included in the US release (as I think Japan had to patch it post release). That will make life easier!

which is why i will wait.

Il prob want it digitally anyway as its the kind of thing il play on and off. I wont want to swap carts to play it.

This been posted yet?

New game Demon Gaze

http://the-magicbox.com/1210/game121024c.shtml


cant see it due to work filter. any chance you can explain what it is?
 
Any impressions of monkey ball? Its cheap and has monkey target (they even put that specifically on the box, as though to shout at all the wizened old gamers "SEE!? Monkey target - happy now?")

If it's PSN only then it might be cheaper. it usually is. Still not sure if I'll get this. It's on my radar, but I wanna see how much single player, campaign mode there is first
 
Hmm psn only RO odyessy doesn't effect me since I'd be getting it digital anyway but I'm glad it's this year. Was scared it would take a few months.

This winter meaning December through February I'd imagine. Unless it comes out the last week of December, it's not this year.

dungeon crawler???

interest piqued
 
I bought it digital as well. Only played it a little bit. I kinda like it. Not as much as a real Tekken, but it's kinda fun. I know I paid way more than it's worth ($40.... sigh), but eh... another $60 to go for the $100 October spending deal.

QUESTION: are we supposed to get some of the costume packs for free or something? I'm confused about what I'm entitled to or not, and the in-game store wants $$$ for all the costumes.

Ugh, and this is why I need to listen to the little voice in my head telling me to wait until Tuesday to pick up NFS rather than blow my money on SF vs Tekken after work today. It's just so hard, the game appears to look just like the console version, but in reality I know I would play it a few rounds, and then pop something else in.

As for the extra costumes, I know a lot of retail stores were giving them away as a preorder bonus. I guess with digital you're going to miss out on that sort of thing. With the digital version do you know if it unlocks the extra characters for the PS3 version?
 
There's a few PSP Sony games I wouldn't mind getting from Vita +. Killzone Liberation, and the Jak and Ratchet games. Would prefer RPG's, but it would be easier to give out Sony games

Never played this, but I recall it being well received back then, and looking really nice. Does it still hold up? Are the visuals still pretty impressive?
As much as I like the game, I don't really think it holds up well. It's a fully 3D game on the PS1, so the visuals are poor, but admittedly I played it on PS3 where it was really strectched. The camera control is extremely clunky and controlling Ashley was awkward
 
I'M SORRY OKAY? :(

I've never played a Tomb Raider game from start to finish. Only one i've ever played is Underworld and i got bored after an hour.

I wasn't crazy about Underworld, but if you get the chance Legends is worth a look, as is the original game (it's on PSN). I know the original was remade, and available on PSP, but I'm not certain if it's playable on Vita. If it is and adds the ability to use the second stick for a camera then it's worth getting!

its an interesting game. I never played it originally but bought it on vita when classics came out. Its looks surprisingly OK considering its age (dont expect anything amazing of course). Its also like 93mb which kinda blew my mind as all the cut scenes are done with the in game engine.

The combat is also pretty interesting and takes a while to get your head around. However it is worth reading up on how it works because its VERY easy to get to a boss where you just do 0 damage over and over again.

I stopped playing it after 6 or 7 hours I think but I did enjoy what I played of it.

Anniversary is available and does work on vita. Looks really nice as well. Im playing at at the mo.

Only tomb raiders I liked were the very first one, legends and anniversary which is a remaster of the first one. The rest I just didn't enjoy. Underworld I got bored of really quickly and the controls drove me crazy. Jump forwards - lara jumps to the left, hits a wall and plumets to her death. eject, trade.

I'd imagine Sony would want to start PS+ Vita off in a big way (or so I would hope), and could really see them making one of the PSP God of War games free. Those were soooo frickin' good, and would probably shine on Vita.

Got the Origins Collection on PS3 for those. But yeah I can see them doing that

Yeah both GoW games look and play really well on vita. Really enjoyed them. Ghost of sparta looks and plays the best of the two but both are worth getting.

Hopefully PS+ is good as its something I would prob sign up for.

Well, that's done. Game was alright.

Thanks Carl! ^^

You're welcome. Strange about the crashing. Don't think it ever crashed on me :S.

And yeah glad you're all enjoying Frobisher. It's a fun game. I fully recommend playing it with your husband/wife/significant other/friends/family. Great laughs can and will be had.

yup, I wish they would hurry up with the dlc

Anniversary? I think i own that one actually. I own Tomb Raider 1 too, just never played it... heh

How long is MBA?

Not long. A few hours. But it's a good length for the price. Especially if you grab it while it's on sale.
 
Thanks - but Carl, it's not on sale, ITS NOT ON SALE

its only £5, think I will grab it later :)

Oh sorry, i thought you were a US'er. Apologies. Yeah it's well worth £5 :)

Monkey Ball being £29.99 on PSN makes me sad when it's £15 in shops. What the hell, Sega? I might have picked it up digitally for £15, but i certainly won't for £29.99. Not now, not ever.
 
Something else i've just noticed that makes me sad. Mutant Blobs Attack has dropped out of the UK top 20 sellers, for the first time since launch :(

I hope the reason for that is because everyone already bought it.
 
My single purchase will reelevate it to the top!

Let's hope so :P

Also noticed last night that Super Monkey Ball, Street Fighter X Tekken and...that motorcross game thing were put on the store at midnight. LittleBigPlanet was too. Good to see they've gone back to this again.

Hope they stick to it next week so i can grab Assassin's Creed Liberation at midnight
 
I don't think that I can make it to $100, to have $20 back. So far I spend about 8 dollars so far, and I plan to renew my plus, but with the delays of Jet Set Radio and GGXX^C+ (for the PS3), I don't know what to buy.

Maybe FF3 and Dokuro, but I don't know...
