What interview was that?
6 hour game for a low price sounds more than enough to me.

So length = quality now?

That happened to me with NFS Most Wanted. Bought the game for £25 and it went down to £20 the next day.
To make it worse, I haven't even played the game that much. D:

Well, no, but you'd think the shorter the game is it would have to be very good to justify your purchase, no?

crysis 3 is less than that.

...what exactly are you expecting out of a low priced downloadable title?

Nice.
Mutant Blobs couldn't have been more than 6 hours. And he convinced people to buy that because it was quality.
Depends on the price and if I like the genre and the game looks like fun.
Dead Space 3 is a mere 10 hours -- a whole 4 hours more than Guacamelee is projected to be.

I bought it because i thought its a good deal, its not like i want to play it right now. It was 25 pounds like 5 days ago, and i have never assumed that it will go even 5 more pounds down in a matter of one day :S
I wrote to them asking for partial refund, they could lower it to 15 at first, not double discount in 2-3 days... Hoping i will get positive response from them.
ofcourse not, but 6 hours for a metroidvania game is just unacceptable.
and it's not the only problem here, no co-op for Vita,no demo and no customizable control option,dev already want to shove dlc into their short game..all bad signs.
Canada and Carl will need a miracle here.
Yes. good games.

What's the average length for a handheld metroidvania?
howlongtobeat.com says most metroidvania handheld games are less than 13 hours with most of them in the 8 hour range.
Metroid Fusion? under 6 hours:

Even Symphony of the Night can be beaten entirely in less than 8 unless you're a completionist.
So 6 seems reasonable to me.
Ridge Racer Vita gets infinitely better with decent headphones and headphones amp. Still, a bit of a shame there's no structured career mode or something. Even if it was really barebones, such as the game suggesting you the next track and racing mode you're supposed to complete it in for as little as 10CR extra, I think it would help the game a LOT.
Still very much worth it for 10 quid.

Carl's back ... how long before you leave again?
Hopefully i'll last more than 6 days this time!
I have 1 successful so far. The rest are either unsuccessful or success pending. Yours is one of the success pending ones.Zeroaka, any news on the referrals?

Still going through all my games and re-adding and re-syncing every trophy list -_- Also, Carl when you were away and we were talking about you I talked about a plot against you and all the other Vitabros/girls, if that means anything

Thanks
I had to actually buy another 360 and pay for another account because I couldn't hold all my money on 4 characters on one account. (PSU)

Hey, anyone mind reffering me for the $20 PSN card? PM if you want.
edit: thanks guys. ZeroAKA got to me first and I'll give it a shot when I get home.
Also, the other day I bought Ridge Racer despite knowing I'll regret it a little. It's alright, but definitely slim on content. Slick though, and nice having to play whenever. All those free music tracks are nice.
There's no one playing it online, though. lol

This news was most important. Surely you felt it in your heart?

Now for the platinum, right?
Hell no. Gonna beat some trials for the lulz, grinding the remaining weapons and ninpo trophy left. No way to play all over again for the ratings.
Well done sir.Mission accomplished

So the alleged PS4 devkit controller has what looks like a bigger version of the Vita's d-pad. I'll be very happy if the final product has it.
Also playing NFS Most Wanted. Man, the Hori grip has just made the game so much more comfortable for me.

Man a horror game on vita would be amazing. If its dark like slender or aliens then it'll look so good... Dat OLED

They've all had mixed responses I think. I love the Hori grip but some people find it too big. The trigger grips have triggers which some people like, but others say they feel cheap (haven't tried it myself). Nyko power grip is probably the best for comfort and its built in battery backup, but I can't find it anywhere.

$24 for the Nyko grip. Cheapest I can find and I love Newegg's prompt shipping.

Nice, whats the eta on Guacamelee?

I can't find it in Europe.
I don't think it's had (or will ever have) an EU release.
$24, though? Damn, that's cheap as hell for what it is. It'd probably cost £35-40 here.

Thanks, I'll add it to my watchlist. Might nab it next time my student loan comes in.

Q2 2013 (well...they hope)
I'd rather they delay it, it sound like they need more development time, honestly ..just listen at the interview the dudes were all over the map and sound like they are not sure about anything with their game.
and with a delay they should/must
-put the DLCs (yes they are already talking about DLC ffs) in the game instead of having a short 6 hour game.
-Add Co-op for Vita (again ffs)
-Try to be a good developer and make the controls customizable.
-Work on a demo so people can try you freaking game and buy it.
