There was a PSP version of Crystal Mines? I wasn't aware of that until now.
About a year ago, I heard about a DS version, which included levels from Crystal Mines II and Crystal Mines II: Buried Treasure (originally for the Atari Lynx). I didn't know that they made a PSP version, too. I'd love to see it released someday on PSN in North America.
And Platinum.
Gravity Rush isn't bad... but it REALLY needed some more variety and the story kinda goes pearshaped at the end with little explanation that basically says "get the sequel, lolz" :/
It's like... a C+/B- Tier game to me. Not bad, but not great either.

Oh rock of ages, do not crumble, love is breathing still. Oh lady moon shine down, a little people magic if you will.
Anybody got some tips on acing the final boss in LittleBigPlanet Vita?
IT'S SO BLOODY HARD!
Can get through the first three segments without any problems now, but those torpedo's get me everytime

Obviously that's just your opinion but I think that is slightly underselling it. For me it is among the top 5 games for all consoles this year. Granted this year hasn't been great but I think the uniqueness of it really gives it a boost.
I'll definitely get any sequels but I think that uniqueness will dissipate for sequels unless they change things up a lot.

Practice the timing for grabbing them. Just focus on dodging until you get a clear shot. Hope that helps.
The game has its flaws but it's just so charming that I can look past all of those. Easily one of the best games I have played this year, I think a refined sequel could be incredible.
Nope. The mission structure was:
"Go here, grab/fight this. Go here. Fight this. Now go do another mission here, fight this."
And then the challenges are like "go here, go here, go here, go here."
"Slide here (lol, good luck with that!), slide here, slide here, slide here."
"Pick up this, don't miss. Pick up this, don't miss. Pick up this, don't miss."
"Fight these dudes. You shouldn't have a problem if you're powered up to where this is a cake walk."
The Dusty missions where you have no control on the gravity powers was probably the most interesting things they did with the shifting powers. If they did more of that (but less "D'aww Dusty is sick") and made it a puzzle/platformer I think the games unique properties would increase 10-fold in not being repetitive. I think it being a sandbox but not having a bunch of variety killed it more than helped it. And I say that as a person that generally LOVES 6DOF games like Descent.

it's katamari is the best opinion i can think upStill looking for more opinions on Touch My Katamari. Please keep them coming!
If you go the PS Store on your Vita, search for the Motorstorm RC demo. It doesn't appear in the game's dedicated section or the demo section. You must search for it. After that, simply download the demo, install it and the game (plus your DLC) boot and work normally. After playing for a bit, it ask you to purchase the game. Access the PS Store from within Motostorm RC. You'll notice that the full game will say "Download" and not "Buy Now" (meaning, you're not buying the game twice, so don't worry). Once everything done, you should be good to go. I just did it and everything works fine. I'm relieved I got this remedied.

It's a ton of fun. Very confusing, but creative game.
The guy also posted immediately after that that even though it said it unlocked, it really didn't. Are you 100% SURE it worked?
Edit: Nevermind just saw your new post in the thread. Thanks for verifying that works. Too bad Sony can't be bothered to fix these issues, even though it is the holidays and they probably had no one on staff to deal with it. Which is a whole other issue, the biggest sale period for their store potentially and they don't have anyone to fix issues springing up? Great job Sony.

Smartass.
You've got people who say it's a terrible katamari and it's short and the levels suck and so on and so forth.
Then you got people who say it's a great portable katamari and it's a lot of fun and feels like katamari.
I'm just trying to sort which will probably resonate with me before I drop the cash on it.
I'm old hat at Katamari, so I don't know if it'd be confusing to me, but the fun comment helps. Thanks!
Quick scan combined with ctrl-F of SOS says no.

There's a demo on PSN. Try it, and then ask yourself "do I want this?" If yes, buy it. If no, don't buy it.

I heard Katamari only has like 12-13 levels. I bought it last night, because hey, it's only $12, and played the tutorial level. It is Katamari. The new features of stretching and squishing the katamari are pretty neat, and work really well with the touch controls. Other than that, it looks as good as any katamari ever has for the most part, I think it looks better than the IOS game it memory serves correctly. But yeah, even it it is a little lacking in content potentially (and that is just based off what I have read here), for the price it seems like a good deal still, if katamari on the go is your thing.
I love Touch My Katamari, I just wish it was longer. The levels are okay-ish, as far as Katamari goes. The music is awesome, for the most part. There isn't a ton of content, as the limited trophy list indicates. I definitely recommend it, if you like Katamari. It's a great game to have on the go. I just really, really wish they would've released some add-on content, or packed more in from the beginning.
It seems to have me in a loop of downloading the demo, the full game and then telling me to unlock the full game.
However, this time it's asking me to download some sort of update...lets see....
EDIT
Nope. Doens't work. Still says it's a trial :/
God damnit.
Considering who are behind it, it would've been much more unforeseeable that it would suck or be mediocre.
Also, I can confirm that downloading the RC demo does NOT fix the issue, after installing everything from the complete pack, it is still only the trial version. It said it unlocked, but it remains the trial version every time I launch it. Still waiting on Sony for a fix then.

Yeah, this is a real fucking bummer.

Does Sony manufacture memory cards anymore? 16 and 32 GB cards are completely out of stock in my city. I would like to download all the PS+ games as I'm not sure when the current selection will be substituted for other games.
If you've already "bought" them, you don't need to worry they're in your download list and able to be played so long as your a sub to the rental service.

No. Its still stupid expensive and has a ridiculous amount of paid DLC but the style just calls to me! Havent heard anything other than the mostly negative reviews though.

Slightly off topic but there is a post on the miiverse that is really popular that says "I wish this controller was cheaper so I could throw it at the wall."
I LOL'd. Never been a controller (or vita) thrower, but I understand the feeling.
It's very playable but lacks the 60FPS of the original,the game is awesome.

Ninja Gaiden is much more skill based than those games. It's hard to compare them. You can do combos and whatnot, but it's not over the top like GoW or DMC where you get 100+ hits just by mashing buttons. It's more like 5-10 hit combos and if you whiff you are punished hard.
Some people like the challenge, others are turned off by it. I personally love it. I bought it at launch on the vita (first time playing it since the xbox days) and I still play it. Great game.

You make it sound like that's a trivial thing, when one of them is to buy every item of clothing, jetpack, gadget and vehicle upgrade. Unless you're buying coins that takes a while.

The slowdown exists but isn't really problematic. I guess it depends on whether you're the type of person that gets really frustrated whenever there is slowdown whether it has an impact on the game or not... or if you can ignore it as long as your play isn't messed up.
I used to be the former but as I've gotten older i don't care anymore. I just think of it like the NES days, when it slows down it just means there is too much awesome happening at once.
