Soul Sacrifice Transformation Modes, Kraken and Slime:
"The two situational options given to you will be between save or sacrificing certain monsters upon killing them. If you go with the sacrifice option, it will raise your magic power level. On the other hand, choosing the save option will raise your life force level. Whichever one you pick, youll gain new abilities and will also accordingly change in appearance. In return, youll lose EXP points of the other side."
Chaos Mode:
"Once youve reached the limit of your magic power level, you can transform into Chaos Mode. This fearsome transformation focuses on powering up the wizards to take on all monsters. Leveling up more will further change their appearance."
Holy Mode:
"Wizards that take their Life Force to an extreme level by continuously relieving monster can transform into Holy Mode. If you keep going along the path of saving monsters, the Holy Mode transformation will also change its form accordingly. Wizards in Holy Mode are a sign of forgiveness, but are their decisions truly an act of justice?"
Kraken:
"The Kraken is a monster with an appearance of a squid and octopus. This giant monster has eerie looking tentacles and what looks like a boat in its midsection. It makes you wonder what kind of desire couldve caused that poor soul to transform into that!"
"Kraken uses swift tentacle attacks which can freely attack its surroundings. If youre not careful, you could end up being blindsided by one of its tentacles."
Slime:
"The Slime monster isnt your average weakling Slime weve grown accustomed to in other games. Not only in terms of power but its also quite the ugly monster. It uses its semi-liquid body to attack wizards. Its movements are considerably slow, but it can stretch for long reach and can also split apart to perform different types of attacks against its opponent. Underestimating this messy monster could mean trouble!"

wow just booted up plants vs zombies on vita.... though i find it harder to tap on the seeds to plant than on iphone, overall i think it has added features which is nice. will def play this version over my iphone now.
multiplayer would be sweet in pvZ, where someone sends out zombies and someone defends with plants.. or you have plants and zombies to send out against eachother.. hmm this gives me ideas....

I was tempted to pick up both Super Stardust and Unit 13, but I decided to download the demos first. Super Stardust is awesome, but I find that I'm pretty burnt out on it after playing so much of the PS3 version. As for Unit 13, I don't know what you guys see in this game. I've got to agree with whoever stated that it looked like a PSP game a few pages back. I just don't get the love for this one.

Actually, there is one case where SCEA is doing people a favor. :lol
So are you judging it on it's graphics or it's gameplay.
The love for it is that it's a competent TPS that feels pretty damn good on the Vita's dual analogs.
It might not be a visual stunner, but it was a launch title... add in the fact that there's daily challenges, decent mission variety in terms of length/weapons/approach... is it good for $40? No. For $20? Yeah, that's what I originally paid for it and was happy to do so. For $13? It's a steal. But only if you want a TPS to take with you on the go.

I just thought of something that's concerning: if PS4 is not backwards compatible, will I still be able to access my psp, ps1 games that I bought for Vita?

Buy both while they're on sale, man.
They're both quality from my experience, though I can say the "Roller Ball" or whatever logic puzzles that force use of tilt suck ass. Let me control that bs with the sticks, please.

Respectfully, both. Sorry, but this one is just not doing it for me.
I don't like that answer.....
When I was on my EU account on my PS3 I saw some Sleeping Dogs DLC was on a PS+ discount the other day. Would be nice if they do a similar thing for the Gravity Rush DLC, otherwise I'm not buying it for the current prices.

Is that a fork?
It really depends how you approached the gameplay, did you just do a guns blazing run to just get through the level?
Part of the charm of Unit 13 is finding the best ways to clear levels out to gain large stealth or time bonuses, which enables you to achieve 5 star clearing scores, or outscoring your friends.
But I understand not everybody will like it.

.... I would be ok with this, but only if they come out in English ;(
Really good question - it's probably something Sony won't talk about until the PS4 is literally on store shelves though :\
Also, I finally finished my blog about the Vita's first year, its games, and its future. I haven't been writing blogs as much as I used to but I just wanted to get my thoughts out there, concerning the Vita. Any thoughts or feedback would be much appreciated
Also Toma I totally copy pasta'ed that indie dev list you guys had on here, but I gave you guys credit. I really tried to not be too hard/cynical, but overall I'm happy with how it came out.

What is it missing?
PS1 games are a given. Why would the PS4 have BC for PSP/Vita games though?
They'll likely show up and be downloadable for transfer just like the PS3, since that can't run them either.

Question for NGS2+ owners: does the game limit the system brightness to 80%? This is very important.

Other than Gravity Rush and to a lesser extent Oddworld I can't think of any.

You can adjust video settings in game.

I mean the system brightness though.
I've noticed that quite a bit in a bunch of different games. When the game actually starts (after the splash screen) the brightness kicks down a little.
Leona Lewis
Banned
That's because some games force brightness to 80% max to conserve battery life, which is fine, except for the fact that it happens even when plugged in to AC power.
Anyway, back to the question...does NGS2+ do it?
Leona my MajesTic sis I am perched for DOA5+sus
Such pristine QUALITY and HEART put into a product should be topping the charts tbh
Ah, good to know.
Wow I didn't know about this. When I play at night with the lights off in my room I still get blinded though.
I've never noticed since I've never gone past 50% brightness.
Past that and it looks bad to me unless I'm outside in direct light.
It'd be pretty silly if you couldn't since you don't need a cell processor for that. But those are the types of details we won't know until closer to launch.
Not true

I really wanted to like it at first,but they gave us nothing with all the delays and then we got the bad details about it.

Super Star Dust was a great pick up. Forgot how much fun it is and controls great on the Vita.
Mine is turned all the way down in the evenings.

Who's your fave? I vacillate between Kasumi and Ayane.
it is indeed.
any idea what Housemarque is doing right now?
not Kyon-chan but I like Ayane more yet I play best with Kasumi..it's complicated
I've got a strange issue some other people seem to have which is like.. vertical lines on the screen. Only viewable on certain grey colors but highest brightness makes it less noticeable.
This, but not this bad on mine:

You still keep buying their products though.
Is Smart as worth getting @ $14-ish? How's its single player mode(s)?
Does SS Delta have a demo? I'll try it out before deciding on buying it @_@.

Licorice-flavoured booze?
That's interesting to know, luckily I don't notice because I keep my system brightness around 70% otherwise that could be annoying. Looks like Sony were having issues with the battery life, could explain why the CPU isn't as fast as we expected.
yes there is a demo for it in the US store
