Nah, he means New n' Tasty.

Did you hold down Power for 20 seconds?

 

[Ken]

Did you hold down Power for 20 seconds?

I kind of wanted to resume my game without doing that but oh well.

BUY NINJA GAIDEN Σ2+ WHEN IT COMES OUT ON TUESDAY

UNLESS YOU LIVE IN GRACE CHEN TIME LIKE ME

THEN WE CAN CRY TOGETHER

 

[branny]

Well, passed Chapter 11 of Ninja Gaiden Sigma Plus Hard finally. Only took me two weeks to get back on that horse. Still, the tower was total bullshit due to the fucking Gyro aiming. Gyro aiming made it also faster to avoid the bullshit rockets by aiming quickly praying I was aiming right and hitting the top ones and then just hitting the rest on the way down. Hoorah. I can't imagine doing Very Hard/Master Ninja with this shitty bow controls. More so with Master Ninja ranks. Oy.

You know, I hate the forced gyro in NGS+, but the tower part is actually the only time the gyro seems to help me more than manual aiming in other versions of the game. It's bizarre. The gyro can still go die. It wasn't particularly helpful with the Vigoorian Emperor skull fight ugh.

Speaking of that, floating around on the rock right before that second part feels a lot more unresponsive than it does in Black. Is that a Sigma thing or a Sigma Plus thing?

I think a Σ Plus thing. I remember it being a bit more responsive in Σ.

i want to buy it but i don't want to buy it fml

Have you checked out some Ninja Gaiden Σ2 gameplay to see if the game looks appealing?

That game is gonna have a ridiculous amount of content when it's all said and done. So excited.

Cant wait for the sale to go up. Want to grab that smart ass.

(And MLB)

 

[omg_mjd]

Skipped out on the sales for Hotline Miami and Frozen Synapse on Amazon and Steam, respectively, in anticipation of their Vita releases this year. I wanna support the devs and my favorite handheld, even if it means paying full price.

Can't wait for the PSN sale though. Definitely picking up SSD and maybe PSASBR.

(Plus, it doesn't hurt that the Hotline Miami PC version is supposedly unplayable with a gamepad. If I can't play a game on my laptop with a 360 controller I tend to just skip it anyway. I've already managed to destroy a ThinkPad's WASD keys and space bar thanks to my late-90's FPS obsession.)

The game is actually easier with a gamepad, that's how I played it on PC.

 

[CrazedProfessional]

The difficulty spike after Yukiko's Castle is insane I tell you, INSANE!
AoE One Hit KO attacks without warning given to common enemies like cotton candy.

Really? Ok, I might decide to double-dip then. There's 2 more days to go in the sale.

Whoa, thanks for the heads up! Just ordered a copy. Haven't played a Virtua Tennis game since the original in the arcades.

Quite tempting actually...is really worth it?

Most definitely.

I'd literally grab 2 if I'd get that price.

 

[CoachKevin]

I mentioned this before but I am heading to Tokyo next week and I want to pick up Soul Sacrifice. Anyone in the US want to go in on a double pack?

Also I will be coming back with this:




Got to love region free hardware!

Looks good (though I hope combat isn't always like that), but I have to wonder, one of the PSP's strengths is that it has a lot of JRPGs, particularly SRPGs. Just got Generations of Chaos, and Ragnarok was what, 4-5 months ago? I hope it doesn't get lost in the shuffle, so to speak.

If I was in America, MonHun was not in March, and SS localization was much later than April, I would bite.

 

[TheSeks]

Isn't there an option to disable the gyro controls in the settings?

:lol No.

Also they're bringing that Toro social app to America, apparently. Good to see SCEA/SCEJ finally not trying to censor Toro everywhere. Maybe now people will stop going "OMG WTF IS THIS CAT"

 

[Tizoc]

Anyone played the new Generation of Chaos game released last week?
It's one of the games I'm thinking of getting, but want to hear impressions on the gameplay.

 

[CoachKevin]

No news from the Destination Playstation even this week on the Vita front? I was hoping we would see some news come out of there.

They cancelled Toro Station, so now it's just a game. That probably helped.

 

[AbandonedTrolley]

Native resolution and 60fps, it's a pretty decent example of what the Vita can achieve.

 

[TheSeks]

Toro station was amazing. I would've killed for an English translation of the news, even if it was months late.

I still want to know Japan's waste management/trash industry. Toro and Kuro visited there and it seemed like an interesting (and funny) episode.

 

[ThatStupidLion]

Very excited for rainbow moon. I dont think the combat stays like that. The game scored pretty high on ps3.

 

[CaptainTiptop]

Rainbow Moon was pretty good on PS3. I actually stopped playing it when the announced the Vita version.

 

[Cha]

I remember a few people here suggesting the "8in1 Cross Button" analog protector thingies, so i picked up a set. Gotta say, the circular design feels really good!

So soul sacrifice got 37/40 from famitsu! Hope it sells well and sets the chart on fire!

Soul Sacrifice, the PS Vita’s newest action role-playing game developed by Marvelous AQL and Sony’s Japan Studio received a 10,9,9,9 [ 37/40 ] . The game will reportedly take up to 25 hours to complete and was praised for its multiplayer.

Hard to take much from famitsu reviews, but it sounds like a deep game and good to hear the multiplayer get praise.

I'm crossing my fingers, the machine deserves it.

Great game - it isn't really tennis simulator but pure arcade.

No.

Runner2 will deliver a newly polygonal Commander Video to you on Wii U, PC, Mac, and Linux today, with XBLA following on Wednesday and PSN for PS3 early next month. Vita (!) and iOS (!) will be in the summer.
