Vita PSN Game & Service Thread | July 2013 | Slow Month, Fast Games

Wasn't this green lit for localization and then supposedly cancelled. It can't be a port, we can still consider it a new game for VITA/PSP in West.

It's like Type-0 (which I also hope we get). It would be new to the west, but technically speaking, it would be a port.

Edit: Recommendations...mmm. Get P4G while its hot, also Sound Shapes and pre-order Dragon's Crown.

the game will always tell you beforehand though. not like persona 3 where it could literally spawn on the 3rd or 4th floor of tartarus and annihilate your little group

Sometimes games warn you and you can still take the enemy... I thought it would be a tough fight, not an obliteration. ;)
 
Sooo.. Spelunky tomorrow?

I think I would be okay w/ a delay if they added the daily challenge the PC's getting. Or does it already have it?

Give.

:(

I realize the daily challenge might be a stretch, but are we not getting it soon?

My googlefu is not strong.

If it's not on vita soon I'm not sure I'm willing to tripple dip. PC is already a lock for me 8/8.
who am i kidding. I'd buy it again for my toaster if it had a decent controller

Focusing on PS4 != ignoring the Vita. I'm amazed so many people are jumping to this conclusion.

Well, you don't think so?

I mean, at first "Gamescom is about Vita." Now "It's about PS4". Sony, bipolar much?

At the very least that means Vita is getting sidelined, when before "Gamescom is about Vita" can be interpreted as Vita is the focus. Now? Not so much, no?

What was said is that the Vita was going to have a big show at Gamescom. If anyone ever thought they would focus on the Vita 3 months before the launch of PS4 they're just crazy.

Oh yeah, Jonathan Holmes of Destructoid tweeted he's got some 'mind blowing' news about Guacamelee to come. Don't know what that could mean; could even just mean the PC port is coming, but it's worth noting.
Click to expand...

There's a patch available, 62mb, notes say added support for new game level, El Infierno

:)

VanWinkle said:
I want a level creator. I would love to create and play some great straight up platforming levels. Stealth Inc.'s level creator makes me want a more fleshed out one for Guacamelee even more.

That would be awesome.

I'm kind of feeling Real Boxing from the trailers and reviews for the iOs version.

This is a good month for Vita, overall.
Click to expand...

Yeah, its decent on IOS, but the visuals, combined with real controls on the vita make me believe it could but the superior version handsdown. I think psn stores did a video of the devs playing it on vita at E3, and it looked good then tbh. Seems like EA has put Fight Night out to pasture anyway reguardless of any possibility of a vita version.
 
If even one of the below is announced at Gamescom/TGS, I'd be satisfied:

- Borderlands
- Bioshock
- Torchlight
- Persona
- Gravity Rush
- Final Fantasy

Everything else would just be icing on the cake.

If they make Birth By Sleep vita compatible and on psn, I would consider it a win.
Click to expand...

I'd love that also, but SE seems to be averse to it. I've been waiting ages for Crisis Core to land on PSN and got nothing. The only thing SE can do to redeem themselves now is to release both of these as qHD remasters.

Once you open X number of chests in a row (x being a number I can't remember right now), the clanking chains can be heard to signal the player that the next chest he opens has a chance to have the Reaper inside.

Aw man that's actually really cool. I'm glad you guys told me because I usually do a dungeon in one playthrough. Had I been smoked by Death I would have probably gotten discouraged.

My mantra has always been "wait". Don't overreact to things that you don't know to be a certainty. Keeps any possible stress low in the meantime and there's no disappointment if no one delivers.

Well yeah, I thought that was the point of the previous statement before Sony went bipolar. Now I am not even sure anymore.

Ah well... nothing that I can do but to wait and see, I guess.

If you go up (or down) the stairs after you hear the chains it'll reset the treasure chest count and Death won't show up. (I had the reverse problem when I was ready to fight Death. He just wouldn't show up for me at first.)

Yeah I knew about the reset because that's how it goes in p3. Pretty cool though. What level do you have to be to put a dent on him?
 
Final reminder that tomorrow is the last day to send in your votes for next month's Game of the Month. There's 3 games at the top, but literally any vote could change which game gets the top score.
 
Since I'm a JRPG noob and I suck at video games Persona 4 is kicking my ass. Can someone help me? I'm at Shadow Yukiko and level 7 on the last day I can do it. I'm using Izanagi and I can't fuse him to anything higher than my level. What the fuck do i do

Woah.

Don't know about this.

Can you link/inform me about the rules? Only games release this month? Etc etc. Interested in participating.

Why in the name of everything that is holy you are using Izanagi for that battle? IIRC there is a Persona that nulls fire--that looks like a dancing cat, I forget the name though--that is perfect for that battle.
 
Don't focus on fusing Izanagi. Grab other personas and try to fuse them to make a persona that's immune to fire.

Spells that casts stat buffs are important, use them.

Alright, I finally got home a few hours ago and I've had time to sit down for a bit, so I can type up what the new arrangement for the monthly thread's Game of the Month is gonna be. Good ol' fashioned voting!

From today until the 30th, anyone interested in voting for next month's Game of the Month must PM me with their top 5 choices, in order of preference. If you don't provide an order, I'll assume that the order you list them in is the preference. Each game gets points in order of preference, from 5 to 1, and the game with the most points is the winner. Once a game has been chosen, I'll randomly ask someone who voted for the game as #1 to provide a short write-up for it like the one in this and the previous threads.

Criteria for voting:
  • Games voted for must have been released at any time prior to the month the thread is for, including previous months.
  • Only games released up to July 30th, the last PSN update day in July, will count for this round of voting.
  • Retail, Digital only and PlayStation Mobile games are all valid.
Note - If you vote for a game that's already been selected as GotM, I'll disregard it's placement and scroll everything else up by one. For reference, the following games have already been selected:

Persona 4: Golden
DJMAX Technika Tune
Dead or Alive 5+
Senran Kagura Shinovi Versus
Disgaea 3: Absence of Detention
Hatsune Miku Project Diva ƒ

CHOOSE WISELY.

Jesus, you managed to reach her at only level 7? I really recommend being at least level 15 for Shadow Yukiko to not get immediately toasted by her attacks. You also want to pick up a Persona resistant to Fire. I know that there's at least one Persona you can get from the dungeon which you don't need to fuse that offers this trait.

Unfortunately, since you're on your last day and severely under-levelled, you might have to call the quits for this run. If you leave the dungeon, the game will offer you a chance to rewind one week to redo everything.

Well, I'm grinding and I'm at Level 9 now. I want to reach 11 or 12 and make an Oberon or Archangel. I can't find the Persona that's null to fire.

Do you think you'll have enough SP to spare for Shadow Yukiko? That's generally the limiting factor in grinding.
 
Howdy, guys. Looks like Aveline's story not dead yet. Her adventure continues in the 1hour exclusive gameplay on AC4 on PS consoles. According to a PSLS article which i think is banned here for some reason.

Makes me wonder if Vita is getting another AC or not.
 
Courage said:
No idea. If I don't have I'm gonna have to scavenge chests. I can't be fucked to do the whole week again.
Click to expand...

Have you been buying TaP Sodas from the vending machine every week? 50 SP of recovery for 600 yen is pretty handy early in the game, especially when you only have 3 in your party.
 
Hype news for me Rainbow moon is finished in terms of porting it to Vita. now they are just finishing up some technical stuff, and crosssave support. Hopefully it wont be too much longer as I had started the game on PS3, but stopped when the Vita version was announced.

It wouldn't matter anyways. We weren't gonna get Liberation sequel. The only leak about a new AC title suggested that it was a new title, probably set in AC: IV universe(If we talk about Liberation/AC3). Liberation had Conor from AC 3 in a minor role and it just seems to me that Ubisoft is doing the same with Aveline, giving her a couple of missions exclusive to PS3/4 in AC 4.

I beat her at level 12, but I had found 3 different rings that either decreased fire damage or helped evade fire damage. So I wasn't really taking major hits from her when she did the AOE fire attack. Make sure to go around and scavenge those chests b/c I feel like they purposely give you fire rings to help with the boss.

Really? I liked Aveline, her dartbrella and her whip. Also, do you mean that rumored pop up of AC Phoenix Rising. This one I mean: http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2...ising-phoenix-is-playstation-vita-game-report

Same here. Kinda sucks that PS3 owners have to buy it again but understandable, I guess. At least there's a discount for PS3 buyers.

Type-0's localization was put on hiatus because releasing a big name PSP game in 2012 would be stupid. Grand Knight's History was cancelled after having its localization completed by XSEED because Vanillaware couldn't spare the programming staff to insert the translation due to Dragon's Crown.
