Hijacked top of the page: buy P4G!

Seems like my question has been ignored in the P4G thread so I'm going to try my luck here.

Can somebody tell me what's the best shop to import the game from (European here) in terms of price, delivery time and shipping costs? Usually went with VGP but since they were hacked earlier this year, it can't harm to look for an alternative.
Thanks in advance.

VitaGAF and bros, I need you to pray for me that P4G arrives tomorrow!

 

[falconzss]

Don't be silly. It's the middle of the page.

Ch... Mine is in Orlando where I live. Idk HY it says estimated delivery 27th I'm HERE ;__;

Look mate I am not going to get into this whole argument as I don't believe this is appropriate for this thread.

Piracy on the pc has been around for as long as the PC itself the PC has gone through several stages of love and hate for piracy and pirates. I owned a psp from launch and still own one today. This is my 2 cents for what its worth: For a newish dedicated gaming device whose target audience is very technologically inclined and tech savvy. Piracy is a bitch. this isn't to say piracy is the only reason why stuff got so bad with the psp. But it definitely didn't help

P4G is my first Persona game and it's blowing my mind. Never in my entire gaming life have I played anything like this. I'm glad Golden is my intro to the series.

Does anyone here want a person to play Pure Chess with?

No one on my friends list even owns it. Anyone that would be willing to use up a friends spot for some chess matches with me?

(And I still would like some impressions on on Doctor Who or Ragnarök Tactics. No one?)

Question for European users importing P4G. Wtf are you doing ? you know this is coming over here in Feb right ? if you all import it who is going to buy it when it gets here ?

 

[matthewwhatever]

New page, old question:

Any impression on Doctor Who or Ragnarök Tactics?

Doctor Who isn't very good. Unresponsive controls, weird character movement, so-so graphics...I've played worse, but I wouldn't recommend it unless you want a second-rate platformer.

Importers are always a minority. There will be enough people buying it in the EU, dont worry.

Ah, thanks.

Finished Uncharted:GA. great game, looks great plays great (shooting could use a little work but could be a hardware thing?) the only thing is the insistence on using the touch screen, the rear pad, the gyro… it all seemed tacked on and too much.

Also touch-swipe/QTE boss fights? Who the fuck thought they were a good idea?

You wouldn't really have known it wasn't made by Naughty Dog though the game is that good.

Can't wait for the next Bend game, they should really do a new IP although I wouldn't be adverse to a Syphon Filter from them or even a Golden Abyss sequel although I think that having them churn out Vita Uncharteds would be a bit lame.

They will purchase an EU copy too of course.

[yankee666]

So i finally decided and i mace a huge pre holiday shopping for the PSV. PS+ (12m), SFxT, PSASBR, P4G and next week im gonna buy HSG with the discount and maybe VT4.
Its a great month for PS Vita owners

 

[Carl]

Well... You don't want to use an older one.
I mean, they should all be time stamped when you view them in content manager. You can't restore multiple, it'll just overwrite the other.

I would back up now, and restore with that newest backup.

So i have to redownload all of the shit i had on there on the previous one? Damn.


So i can't restore the saves i put on there in the previous one? So those saves are lost?

So confusing.

Will be HIGHLY pissed off if i lose all of those saves

 

[Wuthering_Heights]

No, that was spend 100 get 20.

This is spend 60 get 10. =P

OMG that's a thing?

Yes, it's a thing!

God bless those who do 8)

The wait for p3p on the psp in europe was painful. Lets not scare away the pubs

 

[Zoc]

I'll be curious to see what games end up on the Vita's PSN. If the standard has been set as three retail, two DD, and one PSP title, they might have a hard time finding new content every month. I expect LittleBigPlanet, Motorstorm, Unit 13, Modnation Racers, Resistance, Little Deviants, and Sumioni at some point, but what PSN-only games are there for them to add?

Sound Shapes, Super Stardust, Plants Vs. Zombies, Dokuro, Escape Plan, and what else? I suppose I should expect sports games or darts or something...

 

[kiyomi]

One prayer? Bros I am disappoint. If it doesnt arrive it's your fault.

 

[Toma]

No, that was spend 100 get 20.

Ah, right!

Btw, didnt you play a beat em up a while ago? Thought you cant get into these. Was it more accessible?

Pretty sure you have to make your purchases by 11:59pm on 11/26.
As I understand the promo, it does not include the store update on the 27th.
If I'm incorrect and it does, that changes things a bit for me.

Lesson 1: STOP DOING FULL BACKUPS. Do a backup of everything individually, then do incremental backups of the changed/new software.

With that said, here's the logical way to get everything back:
(1) Restore the oldest backup. Use PS+ to copy everything to the cloud. Backup anything you want to be sure you keep to your PC/PS3 individually.
(2) Restore the next oldest backup to overwrite the current backup. Use PS+ to copy everything to the cloud. Newer saves will overwrite older saves and those saves that would have been lost because of the overwrite are already on the cloud.
(3) Repeat until you restore the latest backup.

I cannot advocate doing the backups manually enough. Doing so allowed me to restore content as I deemed fit, which allowed easy transition from retail WipEout 2048 and Gravity Rush to digital as well as recovery of U:GA, Rayman, Resistance: BS, MBA, Soundshapes and such to the cloud.

I bought Street Fighter X Tekken on Vita on a whim, because even though I suck at it, I have a soft spot for Street Fighter, and I wanted a portable version on my Vita.

Played it for MAYBE 30 minutes since I bought it. $40 well spent. =P

I just wanted to make sure that my P4 purchase on 11/20 was good to qualify for it, and I'm sure it does, since these promos go update to update usually.

So... I am 2 cents shorts of $60. Need to find an avatar to buy.

Aw. Btw, I wrote you that exact question in a PSN comment. Arent comments showing up if someone writes them in an activity? Just curious. Cant remember I got one. Might just be very forgetful, though. Heh.

[MisterC20XX]

Spend $60 get $10 back? On anything you purchase on PSN? Why did I not know about this?!

:::begins Google search:::

 

[Dingotech]

I saw the PSP GTA games were on sale, how do they play on the Vita? Worth it for some casual GTA gaming on the go?

They buried it at the bottom of this post and never spoke about it again, not even on the Blogcast.

That's Sony for you, I guess. Not even advertising it. =P

Not too shabby, eh? But that’s not all: we’re giving you another chance to save on PSN. Purchase anything on PSN from November 20th through November 26th that collectively reaches or exceeds $60, including our new Ultimate Editions, and we’ll give you a $10 PSN Wallet voucher in December! This voucher will be delivered via an XMB message on December 6th, and will need to be redeemed by January 6th, 2013.

In my experience, beat'em ups are like... Streets of Rage, Golden Axe, Double Dragon, etc.
SFxT would be categorized as a fighter, I believe, at least in Frost's world. Just sayin'

nvm, dp

Sony’s celebrating the Thanksgiving weekend with a sale of their own. This comes very similar to their October promotion where spending $100 or more on the PlayStation Network would reward customers with an extra $20 arriving their e-wallet shortly after the promotion ended.

To qualify for the extra $10 in PSN credit, customers need to spend $60 or more through the SEN wallet (either by using a credit card or the prepaid SEN cards) on anything on the store front. This would be the perfect time to pick up the Call of Duty: Black Ops II season pass or Torgue DLC for Borderlands 2.

Customers have until 11:59PM PST on November 27th, 2012 to take part in the PlayStation Network promotion.

Nope! Not out here yet!

I was playing gravity rush again! Almost almost finished

Yeah, but we were talking the other day that I couldn't get into fighting games at all, so I assume that's what he meant.

Well, I was talking about PSABR, which might not TECHNICALLY be a fighting game, but close enough!

Completed and platinumed bro
just waiting for the rest of the dlc to get cheaper so i can grab them all. The freaking challenges on the dlc are so much harder than those in the main game

On a side note anyone else think with kat getting an appearance in psabr it wont be long before a ps3 version of GR ?

No way it comes to ps3 anytime soon. It's the closest vita has to a platform mascot.

 

[zychi]

so probably a dumb question.... ifi buy 39.99+19.99 am i two cents short?

typing on th vita sucks lol

Well, IMO, PSABR might be closer to a beat'em up than a fighter (*cough*party game*cough*), so good show on Toma's part

so probably a dumb question.... ifi buy 39.99+19.99 am i two cents short?

typing on th vita sucks lol

Yes, go buy an avatar.
I'm currently sitting at $10.03 short.
If I buy Sine Mora (again) on PS3, I'll be $.04 short.

Huh, so let's see what's going up this week.
New Ratchet & Clank game for PS3 (cross-buy for Vita delayed)
Some classic Sega fighters
And the price cuts on the digital copies of the first party games

That doesn't really help me.
