Well it has CoD which is kind of the Britney Spears of video games. Massive sales but people with good taste stay far away.
Not sure if calling me a pig or Rhianna. Underdogs don't do voice overs.err lip syncs.

Preach.
An observation: if DOA5+ and Killzone Mercenary are what we can expect from the second "gen" of Vita's graphical polish, we're in for some ridiculous visuals by the end of its life cycle. Especially if Sony makes the PS4-->Vita asset pipeline as simple as the PS3-->Vita one is.
I can't wait to see what devs can do with Vita five years from now if the entire industry doesn't swallow itself whole by then.
DOA5+ looks good overall especially considering the backgrounds, animation and 60 fps but you can tell the textures aren't perfectly crisp...maybe it's the lighting. Still looks very good and hardly MK, reassuring especially if it's 60fps. But damn, Killzone Mercenaries might just blow everything else away. Really hope the framerate is tight.

Speaking of which, is the Geometry Wars brand dead or something? What an obvious fit, especially for someone who hates the Super Stardust aesthetic.

I'm pretty sure the company that makes it is dead. After playing Super Stardust and Geometry wars so much I want to play one where you get to shoot monsters, vehicles, something not retro but I'll take anything on the Vita, really.

Yes.
Activision acquired Bizarre Creations and then subsequently shuttered them back in 2010, I believe, maybe after they finished Blur.
I think the people who put in the SKU # instead of the serial # are gonna Fail. Maybe there is still chance to redo any that get Fail.
The game has so much voice audio, I can't imagine NOT listening to it. The voice actors can bring additional heart to the characters you might miss out on.

Or in some cases, from what I hear/read, make people want to choke a bitch. :lol

Van Winkle is right on the money with Rocketbirds. It's awesome, as long as you realise it's closest to Flashback than, say, a traditional 16bit shooty platformer.
Alien Breed is great fun. Think a proto-Take No Prisoners. It was great back in the day, and while this rejigged version needs a bigger dead zone for the right stick, you're getting a decent amount of game for the price. It won't wow you, but it's solid where it counts and looks ultra sharp on, ahem, DAT OLED.
FIFA 13 - $20

They also have Paper Mario for $20 and the new Layton for $15.

Grrr why i'm in Europe? =_=
Damn Layton sold out. Kid Icarus also 15 dollars.
Might pick that up and Paper Mario. Only thing stopping me is my backlog...

Glad the idiot from eurogamer had to remind us that "VITA HAZ NO GAEM" 20 sec in.

Velocity is an excellent game, but I hope we see more than HD remakes of Minis from them.
Laughing Jackal (another prolific Minis maker) finally announced their first Vita native title...a HD version of Hungry Giraffe. Not only a Mini, but a PS Mobile title.
Kind of deflating. I guess if you haven't played the Minis versions they're new, but I was hoping for more.

Some details from the video
"You can use the right stick to fling bombs, we don't think it's a good idea so we included it so you can see why we think it's not a good idea" lol
Also talks about using the touch screen to teleport and why it doesn't always offer the best option and it's clumsy at times. But they included it anyway because we asked for it
Also talks about the leaderboards and how it will work on speed missions where people are likly to get the same time. READ: You're all awesome.
NEOGAF GETS A MENTION!
Hopefully out in May, around $7-10 but no definite yet.

Heh, that's one of the things I asked for.
Played Wipeout 2048 on my Vita for the first time Yesterday.. an fuck me sideways.. what an ABSOLUTE handheld experience.. amazing game..
I had some earplug headphones on, and I was starting a race. ; Then Prodigy´s "Invaders must die" started.. DAMN.. that was AMAZING.. damn the music, the crisp graphics, the gameplay, the Vita.. they all connected at the same time. It is the best handheld game experience for now..
How come we have early games like that, and newer shit games like CODeclassified, Resistance etc. ? we all know and have seen that much better stuff can be done on this Handheld console. Wipeout 2048 is a prime example of this.

Don't forget to get the HD and Fury DLC.
lol.. already had them.. Some company (hmmmm) sent them to me to review when they came out. But I didn´t have Wipeout 2048 and the time to ply them.. now I have so I will definately play them.:! (I have Wipeout on PS3 too, but other games have pulled me away from it, only played like 34½ min. of it.

For UK VitaGAF, 32GB memory cards are down to £44 @ Argos.
HUKD has spotted it, so it's likely to go out of stock soon. None in my local area. :/

I asked FuturLab about Velocity Vita logging stats, they asked what people would like to see if they could cram it in.

Let them know.
