No. I want a good mix of both. Personally, i don't take my PS3 out and about with me, so that's why i can't play the same games on there

Killzone is made for handheld, fast paced missions, not too long. Just enough to jump in the bus, play one merc mission, pause game, put Vita to stand-by mode and finish later.

scans are from the mag's site so should be kosher.

Also it's damn impressive for a handheld to crank out an Uncharted,that was the initial wow factor for me.
Pretty much. That's why it always confuses me when people ask questions like that, lol
I'm just more of a portable gamer in general, so I fully welcome PS3-quality games on the Vita. I would love to see a new FFT or TWEWY on the Vita though.
So is the game similar to Unit 13 in structure?
Convenience: I feel that if I need to play a console game I need to "setup" myself to play for some 2 hours or something, instead with the vita everything becomes pickup and play (the fast OS helps with this) and I can do it while doing something else like being in the computer or while someone else uses the TV.

Yeah. Obviously it depends on how often you travel, but I think that applies to all portables

Yep, this. Also the ability to suspend a game at any point makes any game mobile since I can just pause any gameplay, cutscene or even loading screen if I need to do something.
And Killzone, oh man, if it is basically Killzone 3 for Vita then it's day one for me. I loved Killzone 3.
Nope. Need to see that there's some substance there first.
As for Killzone I'll believe the graphics when I see it in video form. I don't believe it'll look anywhere near as good as 3.

Don't know how relevant this is, but the Tapei International Game Show is happening next week, and Killzone Mercenary, Tearaway and Soul Sacrifice seem to be on their schedule.

It's seeming more and more likely that we're definately getting new info very soon. Hype rising.

I'd be satisfied as long as it runs at native resolution.
Never heard of this, but it sounds promising. I can't wait to see the game in action.
The gameplay from the reveal trailer didn't do it for you?
Nope I don't think it looked very good at all, what little was shown at least. I always had it passed off as extremely early footage though.
What's a "proper handheld game" though? You mention FF:TA and Bowser's Inside Story, but there's nothing in either game that wouldn't be replicated on a console. Hell, a lot of people dislike TWEWY's control scheme and, despite liking the game, wish they didn't go so overboard on forcing the game to use ALL the DS's features.
Hell, take a look at Pokemon. One could argue that nowadays, with the internet connecting everyone, there's no reason for it to be on handhelds anymore. EDF 2017 is just as good on the Vita as it was on the 360, so I don't really see an arbitrary requirement like needing touch controls to make it a proper game for handhelds. A good game is a good game regardless of the platform it's on.
If this is true + Sony makes a proper, PROPER advertising campaign = massive sales and no more "haz no gaems"
Again: We're definitely 100% getting KZM info this week, guys. Fred on the EU blog confirmed it yesterday.

It definitely looked pretty though, IMO.
It's a good point - and don't get me wrong, I agree with you on your final point, but I mean in terms of format. Tactics games aren't often seen on consoles - Fire Emblem, FF:TA, Killzone, Warhammer, Advance Wars etc - the format of the games "fits" on a handheld if you'll excuse the lazy word choice.
If Killzone proves to be fantastic (and I hope it does) I'd constantly be thinking "but this would look better on my PS3" - maybe that's just me? I don't do a lot of travelling over extended periods so that might be one reason why - so sitting in my room, in front of my tv, playing Uncharted doesn't make sense. Not to turn this "sales-age" but I don't think I'd be alone in that thought either.

I am, very much so!
I don't have a PS3.
As someone who owns every console, ideally I look for unique games on each, so I have little reason to go for Uncharted/Killzone/etc. But despite the Vita being a 'portable console', it has a lot of niche titles to pick up. Of the two I'd naturally go for Tearaway. Hoping Let's Fish will be surprisingly good.
The announcement that would make the system for me would be Patapon 4, though.

There is no guarantee for this.
every good developers make garbage games sometimes (ND with Uncharted 3 and Jak 2, Retro with Metroid Prime 3, Remedy with Alan Wake,Yakuza Team with Yakuza 4..ect)
I don't think Tsutomu Kuono work for SCEJ anymore, so I doubt there will be any new LocoRoco ever again.

I don´t take the vita out of my living room, well, that´s a lie, i take it whith me to the shitter, but that´s it, and i DO want more "console like gaems" in the vita, sometimes is just more comfortable to me than turning on my ps3/360, just laying in my couch, while my girlfriend watches something on the tv, or while i´m just browsing the web (my pc is hooked to my lcd), fighting my cats, playing with a good pair of headphones...chilling.

That's a damn shame, those games were great. And I'd love a version with gyro controls.
dunno..but it's very good for anyone having difficulty getting to sleep at night ...that boring game is way better than Panadol Night (GlaxoSmithKline should be careful about their business)
Hopefully enough that they'd consider bringing the new Ys to the US. I'm going to assume that there's no hope for the upcoming Trails game.
Nice, hadn't read that.
UC3 is the definite low point of the series, but i wouldn't say it's crap :/ Anyway, i'm sure Cambridge will do a good job.
Well you are talking to the master of hyperbole.
Fixed.

Ragnarok is Xseed in USA ? Didn't GungHo open american subsidiary to take care of their games directly ? (they are doing Dokuro and RO for EU releases themselves).
XSEED published Ragnarok Odyssey and Dokuro in the US before GungHo made the EU announcements.
