Wanna know what's sad?
If it sold 5000 copies in Japan that means 1/200th of all Japanese vita owners have it

The horrible cameras are unfortunately going to be reality for a while. Better image quality = more taxing on the hardware to do AR overlays, which means you'll have either a more simplistic AR experience, or one with visuals that are far from realistic.
A lot of the involved 3DS AR (ie, shit that isn't just statues) tends to run with really poor frame rates. I don't know if that's the hardware not being able to keep up with the demands of AR, or Nintendo not having any experience with AR.
Admittedly the faux ghost picture feature of Spirit Camera was the only enjoyment I got out of the game (you take a photo with the 3DS and it adds a random ghost to it, making it look like a ghost picture). The photos themselves are grainy, but so are the fake ghosts it attaches making it a, while obviously fake, startling effect when I was flipping through my photos a while later to one. Heart skipped a beat! One of the only legitimately effective uses as it works with the limitations of the system and its cameras.
AR at the moment just seems the next gimmick from 3D: adds nothing to games other than a throwaway gimmick. But that's just me

Hmm i think Invizmal news deserve new thread.
There's no real concrete info, and I don't think enough people on the forum really care about it to make one right now. Maybe once it's been formally announced.
Didn't realise the team was so small. They do a good job. Hopefully the new game is good.

Came across this PS+ offer: http://www.azomax.com/playstation-network-psn-plus-1-year-membership-save-20-dollars/
Anybody knows this shop? 35$ for 1 year PS+ is a steal, I'm sure it would interest some fellow Vita muffins
But I guess I'll pass, don't really think I want my PS3 and Vita backlog to be filled up automatically every month and I'd need a new expensive memory card on top of that. Then again, 3$ a month.... :-o

Can you tell me if the game is translated in english? I checked this game on playasia but they say nothing about english sub/dub.

Too small - the only part i can read is "Tearaway on small Vita screen looks marvelous and doesn't resemble anything you have seen so far"

In a perfect world, we'd all be homersexual
Those Tearaway gifs in the Killzone thread are awesome - does anyone know much about this game? I can't tell if its a small-scale platformer/novelty sort of game, or a big adventure. Some of the worlds seem to suggest a larger open-world style thing, but I can't quite figure it out.

I'd like to see Ninja Gaiden at some point before Ninja Gaiden 2 comes out, but whether it will happen or not...
I think there'll probably be at least one new game for free in there

I'd like to know this too, I received a Mail from Sony on my fake US account, maybe I'll give it a try, but I don't think it'll work with a EU Vita serial number.
Looks like there will be 2 new PSVita games on EU Plus next month, and they're both currently available.
Also worth noting: Every incorrect tweet has had a "nope, it's not that" reply. Someone tweeted the list of games that a GAFfer posted, and they didn't say that it was wrong...

I really doubt it. There don't seem to be any options for it.

You can see how he's telling people they're wrong. But his reply to the GAF list was simply "Yes, we read NeoGAF too"

Also: Looks like Ninja Gaiden isn't one of them. Damn. Thinking that GAF list might be right.

Especially when you consider how feature packed their PSP games were. They had a meaty single player campaign, as well as online modes with global lobbies, voice chat, etc. It was pretty impressive for a PSP title, especially one from a (then) no-name Spanish studio.

Yeah i never played them on PSP but bought a couple on Vita. They're pretty damn big for a team so small.

Man sleeping dogs and wipeout would be FANTASTIC
I already own Wipeout 2048 (got it free because i own a 3G unit) but Lumines would be good - been planning to buy that for ages.
And yeah Sleepy Dogs would be cool.
Well, if you find out, please let me know!
Actually pretty excited about that. I'd be happy with both Lumines and Wipeout ; I haven't bought either because they seemed likely targets for PS+ IGC. I wonder how many people are put off actually buying games because of the chance they appear on Plus. And Sleeping Dogs would be the most exciting game on the service since I joined.

It's definitely a nice deal where you get both the PS3 and Vita version. I'm having my partner DLing the PS3 version so we can have some 2 VS. 2 matches later in the week, so that version didn't go to waste either. Scratch that, it's not just a nice deal, it's a really great deal!
Not sure if we have added each other already, but we can have some matches if you like. Don't expect a great fighter though
Actually, since we're having challenges for a monthly thread such as clearing Gravity Rush races....Playstation All Stars online would also be an excellent game to use for challenges.

Hell yeah! This is what I've been waiting for!
You know, I'm losing interest in RO. The game is taking ages to arrive here in EU and by the sounds of it, it appears to be too average and a must to play online with the last chapters. I don't mind playing the game online to get more out of it, but that's a weakness with single player that has me not liking relying on others to get full enjoyment out of it. Can you hook up with US, JP and EU players at least?

I think we had each other added but one of us deleted the other, most likely because we never played anything, haha. My PSN is on my GAF profile, it's nothing like the GAF handle.
but yeah, I'd definitely be down for some ASBR. I'd be crap as well, so. :3RpgN said:
Yeah, the wait is silly. I don't really regret importing but I haven't really latched on to it that much, and since most of the enjoyment is online, haven't really gotten round to organising anything, either. It's a pretty shallow game, if it's releasing DD at full price in the EU I would probably wait for a sale. As for the servers, I want to say that it's divided into a Western/Asian thing? Because when I was playing with NA people from within the EU, you'd never see any Asian servers. You'd hope at least that EU gamers can play with those in NA.

Usually, I only import games that won't ever make it to EU. Otherwise I have no problems waiting while being kept busy with other games

I'm interested by the Corpse Party sequel, but beyond it's visual novel leanings, I'm not actually sure of what's involved gameplay-wise. is it worth a look? Anyone willing to offer some quick impressions?

Now that's an interesting idea.
I feel like I own all these games
I own the vast majority. For me though, it's still worth it for the few free games i don't own, but mostly for the discounts

Same. The discounts alone cover my subscription cost. Any free game I don't have is a bonus. That's why Day 1 PSN freebies are so damn exciting.
I say it'll drop by 50 bucks,maybe a price drop on mem. cards will happen and no there will be no Vita revision this year IMO.

Noone really knows but it probably won't beat the black friday/Christmas deals.
Sure can! But dlc and online pass will not work!
Yes but maybe not online.

Odd, your PSN ID doesn't ring any bells :x Consider yourself added (will get around it later). If you're just as crap, then all is good
I'm willing to pay up to 35 pounds at most, anything more than that will have the game in the price drop category. Ideally it would be better to have it between 25 and 30 pounds on the day of release. That makes sense, that would be okay as long as US gamers can play with EU gamers. I also hope that is the case. Maybe we might form a party one day when the darn game is finally released in EU...Do hold on to your copy of the game!
There's also an important distinction between Japanese releases and Asia releases (Hong Kong). From what I've read, the games themselves should be interchangeable and compatible on either marketplace when it comes to DLC /when the Asia release is in full Japanese/, but if the Asia release is in English/Chinese/etc, it won't be compatible (only with the Hong Kong PSN in that case, I imagine). Asia releases are typically quite a bit cheaper as well ($60 vs $80 from what I've seen). As long as they're both strict Japanese releases, the only differences should be on the box-art and possibly the inserts (the Asia releases have no CERO rating, or any rating whatsoever).
An important distinction for me personally as I was planning on sticking with Asia releases for the cheaper costs of import, and I was unsure if I was better off making a Hong Kong account (for more guaranteed support with any DLC I get with a game or decide to buy, as well as cheaper prices for DLC on both stores), or a Japanese account (which would likely have better availability on the marketplace, Project Diva for instance I've heard is interchangeable but the HK market is missing DLC releases). Think I'm going to go with a Japanese account just to have the larger selection overall, and in regards to Asian imports, I just need to make sure they're full-Japanese before buying to know it'll (most likely) be compatible.
