Not vita related, but quick question - okami HD or Tokyo Jungle? Tokyo jungle has the remote play patch for Europe right?

I wish Okami HD were actually Vita related.... How is it that there is no Okami on Vita yet. It's criminal. Okami is a great game. I recommend it.

I haven't played Tokyo Jungle. Bombcast had good things to say about it.

Played both and it really depends. Tokyo Jungle is more Pick up and play roguelike with highscore incentive, while Okami is a Zelda quest style game.

Both are good though.
 
I really want to upgrade my memory card, but I also want to wait for larger cards before I do so. I doubt Sony would be able to convince people to pay more than $100 for memory though, so presumably there would need to be a price drop before a 64gb or 128gb can be sold at a reasonable price. That leaves me in a weird position, because if I do buy something, it will eventually be worth less and no longer be the biggest card either. Who knows when and if new cards will be out though, so I see myself remaining indecisive.

I would just wait until memory card prices drop... and just backup little-used games/apps/media onto your PC via content manager.

I only have 2-3 games on my card at a time, so really, 16gb is plenty for my needs. Once I finish the game, I can either delete it from the card or just back it up on my PC in the game archive.
 
PS All Stars transfers everything except trophies for some reason. I think every other cross-connected game links trophies. When Vikings Attack has only one platinum for both versions, another oddity.

Very disappointing for PSABR. Really can't do all that tedious stuff twice!

It seems Motorstorm RC is the exception in that it has 2 trophy lists but instantly unlocks both. From what I've seen for Vita games, they're trying to head towards either have 1 shared trophy list between PS3/Vita or 2 separate trophy lists that don't cross unlock. In both cases, data transfer seems to be a nice bonus and also what is hopefully becoming the new norm.

Edit: Sounds like you at least got your All-Stars data transferred, which is great.

I agree with this. Both are awesome, and neither should be missed. Make you decision based on what mood you're in, but plan to buy the other at a later date.
 
Ok, so I bought both. Bought okami on my sons account so I could buy him a sackboy avatar (can't add 21p to the wallet), and Tokyo jungle on my account. I now have £31.85 in credit on my PSN account. Please EDF be less than that, I'm not adding 14p..

Does Tokyo jungle have remote play built in now, or is there a separate update I need to download?

Update AFAIK

It's gonna be £31.99 now. Tokyo Jungle needs a patch for Remote Play.
 
How does it play? I used to play it on the arcade, would not mind a portable version.

It's pretty much the MAME ROM emulated on the PSP/Vita hardware. Seems arcade perfect to me. It matches what I remember of the game. Plus that collection has Forgotten Worlds (which I couldn't figure out how to play properly), Final Fight, Magic Sword, Captain Commando and several other awesome arcade classics.

I bought them both for 5 bucks while they were on sale and I love having them on my Vita.

Sound Shapes has 2 lists, data transfers, and instantly unlocks on both.
I got my PS3 platinum there without ever playing it on PS3.

blue, it started doing that while it was charging for a while

I think it flashes blue when new notifications happen.
As to why it won't turn on, that I couldn't tell you. :(

Sound Shapes didn't work for me =(, Death mode twice was very frustrating haha.

I did find a list of games that appears to be up to date and says they do the full data transfer/instant unlock (on ps3trophies):

Motorstorm RC
Sound Shapes
Big Sky Infinity
Stardrone Extreme

So far, appears only the 4 do it, with a few others doing partial unlocks/data transfer.

I heard Metal Gear Solid Collection PS3-Vita also does it. Can anyone confirm?
 
I also recommend both Capcom Classics Collections. I got both on sale for £4 each and even at full price they'd have been worth it. Knights of the Round! King of Dragons!

Wasn't an updated Capcom Classics Collection for PSN/XBLA/Vita leaked a while ago? I would buy again if it had added functionality and more games.
 
Would Sonic Racing be enjoyable to someone who despises Sonic? I'm in the mood to race, but I might just get Motorstorm RC or R4 (does it hold up? I've never played it) because they're so cheap.

The SEGA franchises I care about are not part of SOnic Racing, but I still think it's an okay game.
I enjoyed Motorstorm RC much more, though.
 
I want this game regardless. Everything I've seen looks like nothing but a good portable time.

Is it loot based? I dont think we saw any actual loot about this game.
Pretty much all we know is from a text from a year ago...
"Rise from the ruins of a shattered civilization to complete quests, collect rare treasures and take down rival lairs in this brutal and intense RPG. Choose from unique classes with powerful skills, then broadcast your accomplishments or challenge others online. And always stay connected – save, resume and play between PlayStation®Vita and PS3, decimating all who oppose you.

• Engage Everywhere. Stay connected via the PlayStation®Vita, Web and PS3; quest, challenge rivals and craft everywhere you go.
• Multiplatform Gaming. Save, resume and play across both platforms. Enhance your experience on the PS3 with 3D and the PlayStation Move.
• Friends As Rivals. Work with and against each other as you search for rare treasures, trophies and rewards.
• Personalized Lairs. The manifestation of your accomplishments, show it off and challenge others to take you on.
• Broadcast Your Supremacy. Show off rare equipment and victories across various social outlets."

Seem there is not a lot of emphasis on loot.
 
So my Hori grips came in the mail.

My review: They make the Vita too bulky, and it makes you hold it in a way that your thumbs are laying on or over the sticks. Pulling out the handles makes you grip it in a way that your thumbs are sort of out of reach of the d-pad and buttons. It also blocks the slot for the physical media as well.

Clunky and awkward. Better than using the Vita without grips, I guess. 2/5.

The PDP Grips are perfect in terms of how it lays in your hands and allows you to hold the Vita in a way that lets you use all buttons with ease, perfect for both 2D and 3D. Unfortunately those dumb fucking shoulder triggers are worthless. The triggers rub against the grip and causes really awful friction, making the shoulder buttons unresponsive. Ugh. Maybe I'll try tightening the screws with a screwdriver.

It's a hack 'n slash game, loot comes with the territory, no need to really emphasize it unless it's something like Borderlands with a gazillion possible different types of loot.

Of course we have a vid where you can clearly see loot flying out of a dead enemy, too.

Oh well, lets hope it comes out somewhat soon, I have a feeling it might get cancelled if it continues like that.
 
Thoughts on Warriors Lair? It sound pretty good and look pretty good too. Way better than Dungeon Defender Alliance!.

Still no release date...

Absolutely in favor, but I am confused as to why not just put it under the Champion of Norrath line. Even worse, where is the Champion of Norrath HD Collection? That would be a great game to play with trophies.

One concern i have over Warrior's Lair, is I hope the character classes aren't limited to just three. BORING.

This! So much this!

Loved Champions of Norrath. I used run through those games with a friend all the time.
 
If anyone could help me in Knytt Underground, I'd appreciate it. I'm stuck here:

FK6PP.jpg


The image is a bit dark, since the game doesn't seem to allow you to take screenshots outside of that menu. But it's screen 14,12 in the game's map, if anyone would be as kind as to help me. There was some kind of ice-creature there who I'm now supposed to take somewhere, but I simply can't get out of that hole. Is there something I'm missing? Should I not be there yet?
