I believe you mean once again, as they have been down to $60 before

don't remind me
i missed it at that time.. in fact i had it sitting in my cart... but it was saying 80$ not 60. so i cancelled, but then i reread the promo and the extra 20$ was taken off at checkout or something... so when i tried again it was sold out.

Glad I didn't bite on Lumines in the sale at the end of last year now.
Shows up at £39.99 for me, so I guess so.Fuck I wish we got NGS+

The PS3 version is £40 so I'm guessing it's over.
EDIT: derp, beaten.

I already have NGS, I already have WipEout too so bleh. I'll trade in WipEout at some point then.

i believe the answer to your question would be 9 games as 4 + 5 is 9, though I think most of the games worked via ps3 transfer so really it's just 9 to your second question
and at least NGS+ is more interesting to me than table top tanks, so I am happy enough. I don't think NGS+ was a game I was planning on buying anyways so I don't mind getting it, especially since it meets my retail requirement for me being ok with getting a retail game... it's actually more than $15 to buy physically lol.
Just a bit of counting here, though I'm not sure how accurate their list is... however, I know SCEA hasn't changed much for the PSP/PSOne compatibility lately, ever since that one huge update in the Fall shortly after the launch of PSOne compatibility.
The CAG list shows 25 PSOne and 62 or more PSP titles that are only viable on Vita via PS3 transfer.
The CAG list also shows at least 23 PSOne titles that are not compatible at all, including the 9 or so I'm still pissed off about (which work fine in EU and JP; hell, EU even got the Spyro games ported and released with a discount for their consumers after repeated requests. Has SCEA EVER done anything like that for us? Not that I'm aware of). There are also 19 incompatible PSP titles including the Motorstorm games that someone was asking about and other highly recommended titles that are on the stores in other regions such as Patapon 3.
Weird though, I've just checked the sale page and it says 25th > 28th. Wonder at what time they pull the plug on the deals?
Why do you think? If you could simply buy all of the games that are keeping you tied into the service, you'd have no reason to want to continue your subscripiton. Sony wants you to think "I want to continue to play X, X, X, X and X game, so i'll buy another PS+ subscription". Not "I want to continue to play these games so i'll purchase them so i don't have to re-subscribe"
. By the way, they do get a payoff from Sony for their game being free, so you are supporting the developer simply by downloading it for fre...
that cag list is clearly out of date as
Disney’s Hercules
Disney’s Lilo & Stitch
Disney’s Peter Pan: Return to Neverland
Disney’s The Emperor’s New Groove
Disney’s the Little Mermaid
Disney Pixar A Bug’s Life (PS1 game)
Disney Pixar Toy Story 2 (PS1 game)
Disney Pixar Toy Story Racer (PS1 game)
Disney Pixar Monsters Inc. Scream Team (PS1 game)
were the games I was mentioning when i said 9 were added and none of those say they are available on the vita. in fact lilo was listed as not working at all so that is one that works now that didn't.

i expect sony to update their compatibilty list in large chunks, not smaller increments.
they really have most of the games already so i'm sure its not high on their priority list.
sony really does seem to be getting ready for a blockbuster year in all areas though...

Has anyone had the chance to try the headphones that came when preordering Vita (not sure if they were a worldwide thing, but I'm sure they were obtainable in Europe)? Are they decent? I really like how they look and an italian private seller on amazon is selling them for 20 including shipping fees. What do you guys think? I already have in-ear headphones for my Vita but I don't like how they sound and fit my ears at all (Creative something something).

Should be very up to date.
Many titles are added to the vita storefront silently btw, see Ridge Racer 4 which I found out about accidentally.
EDIT: woops sorry double post!

Awesome! I had been looking to get NGS+ for a long time now, so I'm really glad. My 32GB card is filling up fast
I use mine. They're pretty decent yeah, never noticed any problem with them. 20 Euros for something he got for free seems a bit steep though :/

I'm sure you can get much better ones for that price.Has anyone had the chance to try the headphones that came when preordering Vita (not sure if they were a worldwide thing, but I'm sure they were obtainable in Europe)?

ninja gaiden is NA only
lumines is EU only just to be clear as a single 32gb card won't support the two different accounts needed very nicely.
I expect them to continue slowly trickling them out. though it is a little sad crash and spyro don't work given long time ps+ users have all of them :/ (same with ff5)

Not a bad update for NA ps+
Wish stranger's wrath would have gotten a sale like a few people (including me) have speculated.
Anyone know if madden for vita is any good? Might be worth a shot at $20

You both have a point. I think I'll look somewhere else, they look really good but there's probably better quality for that price
Thanks for bringing me back to planet Earth (DAT ps logo though...)

wasnt there a game, that wasnt compatible, and someone from here tweeted them about it and like later that day/week the game went up...correct me if im wrong - it was a castlevania game?

Why do people keep thinking they're getting both NGS+ and Lumines?
You're getting one or the other unless you have both EU and NA PS+ and like the switch accounts on your Vita.
Yes. Another case of the EU guys giving a damn.
Stranger's Wrath is supposed to be getting a 25% off sale soon, period. Not a PS+ only sale. An across the board sale.

Hell yeah! I've been wanting to play NG on Vita. Just didn't want to have to pay to do it.

I wish NA got Lumines since I always have NGS+. Nonetheless, a surprisingly good update this month.
For all the new NGS+ players, change the screen settings before you even touch the campaign - adjust the gamma to 1.1, the brightness to 0.0, and the contrast to 1.1.
Thank me later.

2.3gb or so?
You buy a US PSN card somewhere. I'd be surprised if it PayPal works - I'm sure there have been discussions here before that have said you can't do it because Sony.

Is NG tomorrow?
If so, that's pretty sweet. Haven't played that game since it came out for 360

Figured, oh well.
So guess my second question would be where EU Vitabros (muffins) buy their US cards from.
most people I know get their psn cards through amazon.com
Well, I bought the only one I've ever needed from eBay, lol. Seemed a little sketchy but it worked out fine. I wouldn't really recommend doing that, though.
You can get a $20 card off PA for £18 (dunno where in EU you are). You're probably always going to be paying a markup on these things. Believe you can get them from US Amazon as well, but I've never done or checked. We're talking being sent codes here, rather than the actual, physical card (I'm sure you already realised that but I just needed to say it.
)Assume they don't check your billing address against your provider then.
Thanks gonna try.
Getting PS+ on the US store ... best of both worlds .. and foosball I guess.
Yeah the usual markup BS. got screwed twice with dealing with physical trades so yeah not gonna touch that again heh. Will find a venue one day!
The game itself? Pinnacle of the action genre. Devil May Cry (NOT Donte must Cry: DmC) is it's sire/prince and Bayonetta is it's princess while Metal Gear Raiden: Revengence seems to be coming in as the Queen or possible second cousin.
God of War is the peasants.
Why do you think? If you could simply buy all of the games that are keeping you tied into the service, you'd have no reason to want to continue your subscripiton. Sony wants you to think "I want to continue to play X, X, X, X and X game, so i'll buy another PS+ subscription". Not "I want to continue to play these games so i'll purchase them so i don't have to re-subscribe"
Too bad for them I'm thinking "Sony doesn't give anything to either platform worth a damn except maybe one game every four months, so I'll just buy those on the sale (even if I don't get the 50% the rental service dudes get) next time they go on sale and forgo wishing Sony would release shit I give a damn about on the rental service."
But hey, trying the trainwreck port of NG1S is a decent thing, now I can see how bad they ported it for free. Can't knock that.

It's insanely, retardedly hard. If you don't like a challenge, never play it. It's only worth playing on normal difficulty and up btw, otherwise you're not really experiencing the brutal, soul crushing difficulty the game has. I played several chapters on PS3 and gave up so I could wait for the inevitable trophy patch/version.
I didn't want to buy this one on principle because of their refusal to patch the original Sigma on PS3. Really happy it's coming now for free. Anyone know how big it is digitally?
Same, all the previous free stuff I bought day 1. I'm glad others can play them, they're all great games but I wish there was more variety.
I bought the black ones since the blue ones were a Europe preorder only thing. They're great, they're my main set of headphones now and they have a great balance but they can put out some bass. I still wish I could've gotten the blue ones~

Does that include NG3? Also GoW is better than peasants.

Ninja Gaiden (xbox) used to be my favorited most bestest game ever, but then I became aquainted Armored Core 4, then Demon's Souls.
Ninja Gaiden 3, I thought was a step backwards, but the sigmas definitely look like an upgrade

if you ask most people they like EU plus better
I personally prefer NA plus but I seem to be in the minority lolas for amazon.com, I believe you will need a US address but beyond that i don't believe they compare that to your billing info on your card. someone else could explain better either way make sure you buy the online code and not the code that will be shipped out.
