Rofl I was playing last night in a really desperate attempt to finally finish the dlc. The control scheme with the right stick for gas and the left for steering is the best imo.
That Starlight Inception screen looks awesome. Really can't wait for that game. Trying to figure out how I can cram NG Sigma+ onto my 8gb card

My Vita should arrive at Sony on Monday, and I'll hopefully have my replacement by Friday at the latest. When that happens, we so need to get together for a HSG tourney.
Why didn't I think of this before? Thanks Number!

Also for starlight, that screen is what it will look like on vita only a lower res obviously

Ouch, really? I 100%'d the game on PC and there was nothing near that. Just things like buying an outfit and flying over 5k.
Much as I wanted to stick to only physical releases, couldn't really pass up $6 for a month of PSN+ with Ninja Gaiden added to the mix. I was kind of hoping that starting on a new trophy list I could stick to it and 100% everything, but all hope was lost upon reaching the first boss..
Gravity Rush is great so far, but I really wish there was a Retry option in the challenges. Choosing between finishing the rest of it and spending 30 seconds waiting to exit and re-enter are frustrating.

I have 8GB memeory card in my vita. How many or which games can I install on it without taking up too much space like leaving atleast 2-3GB left?
Persona 4: 3.1GB
Ninja Gaiden: 2.2GB
Disgaea 3: 2.1GB
Let's Fish: 1.45GB
Gravity Rush: 1.45GB
All-Stars: 1.3GB
Lumines: 720MB
Katamari: 650MB
Really depends on the game, but about 3-4 I suppose?
Digital downloads can go between 250mb (Mutant Blobs Attack) and 3GB (Uncharted), so you're gonna have to calculate what you can fit in. You can usually see the download size on the game info page on the PS store before you download it, but if not, once you start downloading, you can check to see how big it is. If you think it's too big, you can just cancel the download.
Installing physical games takes up very little space (a few MB, I think.), so you shouldn't worry about those.

Not including updates but including saves my lbp install takes up 4mb so yeah

Yeah, I was gonna mention patches as well, but it's not that significant for most games AFAIK.
HSG is the biggest patch on my Vita, like 160mb if I remember right.
Nobody? I thought this system worked offline? What the hell is going on?

The patches for escape plan are almost a gig :/
I think you really need to take patches into account when downloading a game

I don't know wtf is up with vita games pricing.... Psn+ is the only reason I'm really wanting to buy a vita now.
Loved the hardware since day one but the pricing on games is fucking stupid. Pc gaming isn't nearly this expensive.

They do indeed, it might be that it's up, or they just need reauthenticating
I connected to check the store just the other night. And my Plus subscription is valid for a year.
Does each game have to be individually connected periodically? If so, that's incredibly lame.

I don't think so. I never had to after the first time.
Nope the patches
They messed with levels and control schemes and all sorts
Oh wow. D:

Depends on what you like.
If you like Capcom fighters, you can't go wrong with the first two.
I own both digitally and find them very true to the console versions.
UMvC3 is easier to play though, since it's a 4 attack + 2 assist game instead of a 6 attack game.
I'm not a fan of DoA series, so that's not for me, but it looks like a good port if you're into it.

Why is it so tricky to see how much free space your card has? It shouldn't be buried in the menu, it should be accessible on the front screen like the PSP...

Can ps3 users see photos you send them? I sent my friends some goofy pics of me and wondering if they saw it.

Escape Plan was WAY TOO BIG after the patches and stuff. They basically pre-patched the DLC so when you buy it, it just unlocks right? Maybe when I get a bigger card I'll re-DL it and go for %100 of the trophies but man was that game hard at times.

They needn't be system sellers. Sony doesn't generally have that tangible of Nintendo. Sony generally fills in a library, more than sells one.
So, I ask to look at this from a different angle:
Someone is in a store and decides to look at the Vita. They notice the wall of games, and even though Killzone, Uncharted, AC3L, Persona 4, NFSMW or CoDBlopsD may not sell a system alone - the collective grouping will. It's about having a vast library of known properties, diverse properties and new properties.
Persona 4 is a system seller to JRPG fans and gaming enthusiasts/forum fans - but in the west - guaranteed CoDBlopsD sold far more, and far more Vitas.
Speaking of Escape Plan...that was made with Unity right? Did the developer ever release any comments on how they put the engine on the platform considering it doesn't have it under the easy export feature? As someone getting into developing I really like Unity and it would be great if I could easily export my projects to the Vita
Also just cleared 5k on Jet-pack Joyride with the new button controls. Died at 4.6k and got a lucky Atom Blast :O

It also definitely needs a menu where you can see WHAT is taking up that space. Like on the iPhone, % games % photos % music etc. Maybe even which game/app/video is taking the most space in a sorted list. But this is asking too much from "crosschat? lol not in a million years lol" Sony :3
When it comes to "features" though I'm not complaining too much over this, when I think about Nintendo and their lack of accounts whatsoever on the other hand... That really pisses me off. How is that even conceivable in 2013?
Even a simple game like Jetpack Joyride is so much better with buttons it's not even funny. Broke old record first attempt, without lucky slot machine rolls.

Same here. I do it all the time on my way to school. Just played gravity rush (ps+) on Wednesday during my commute.

I watched the first episode yesterday, was interesting to see him playing Killzone 2 as well lol
Everybody's Golf is awesome.
I bought 16GB card + game voucher for 40 on amazon and was planning on selling the game but I'm glad I decided to give the game a chance.
Too bad there were only 4 people playing online this afternoon and I got destroyed. Still, I didn't have to wait to get into the game and had a great time.
