PS Vita anniversary Deals (NA) - Free games (Wild Arms, Patapon,...) and discounts
- Thread starter Spiegel
- Start date
It's a great classical JRPG (although admittedly not the best) with a great sense of charme and mystique and is more like 30 hours. Seks is just being stupid today.
But seriously, if you like the old JRPGS, you'll like this one as well. which makes for a very compelling argument of it being pretty darn good.

Too bad memory cards aren't discounted. Mine is full, so I'll probably pass on the discounted games.
Did you see the Amazon thread?
Maybe you can contact Sony customer support for a courtesy refund? Could work.

Since I haven't played Wild Arms yet (only the third one on PS2) I'll have to jump on this and finally give it a spin.

I did, thanks, but it's still a ripoff in my opinion. If EDF or Little King Story was on sale I *might* clean the fridge for that, but no dice.

It's not the console version, but it's certainly not a bad game either. If you enjoy Lego games, you'll probably have fun with it.

And then the LORD David Bowie saith to his Son, Jonny Depp: 'Go, and spread my image amongst the cosmos. For every living thing is in anguish and only the LIGHT shall give them reprieve.'
I didn't know there were people who thought Patapon was a bad game.
Yeah, this everyone. $10 and 20 hours was my personal dollar to playtime ratio and at $6.99 it's an even crazier deal. I said it in my GOTY vote but the game manages to stand out against the typical puzzle platformer glut, it's just lovely all around.
I liked Patchwork Heroes even better and people dismissing it without even bothering to watch a trailer are kinda irritating. Really fun challenging puzzle action goodness and a one-of-a-kind soundtrack. Gotta love those unnecessary bios for all the rescued civilians too.

This. Definitely at least send a quick e-mail. The nature of their response should inform your opinions about Sony and their customer service in the future. Any company with good customer service would refund you the difference, or refund you entirely and let you purchase it again at the lower price, if that's easier.

If you haven't picked it up already, GAF it is your responsibility to purchase this title.
So great.

I think they already do make a fortune with those cards.

Is anyone else getting the message that the store on Vita is currently undergoing maintenance?
Also, it's too bad the price on UMVC3 isn't a bit lower. I bought the cartridge version from a Gaffer for $10, and I wouldn't mind owning it digitally since I'll never sell it but even at 50% off it's still twice what I paid for the used cartridge. Hurray for a digital future...

BUY STRANGER'S WRATH!!!!

Indeed, but think of all the people who would buy a 64 or 128GB card and then purchase more content on PSN as a result. Come on Sony, make my day. Alternatively, I know there are no official 3rd party Vita memory cards but perhaps unofficial ones exist?
Patapon was shaping up to be a very fun game and was one of the reasons I originally bought a PSP, the problem is it's one of the only games from the last generation that requires grinding, so I couldn't finish it. Very unfortunate.
Wild Arms is something I never tried, I've heard good things about the music. Really happy to see that Sony's willing to just give away PSX RPGs for free, do Grandia next!

Yeah but the pricing is the problem. Even at PS+ 50% off, it's still $10, which is what it should have launched at, IMO. I'll wait for further discounts or PS+ freebie. Besides, I'll probably never get through my current PS+ freebie backlog anyway so I'm really hesitant to buy anything on PSN anymore.
I don't always agree with Derrick01 but in this case I do. I remember Patapon was one of GAF's "darlings" on PSP and I was lured into buying it. It was one of the most boring, annoying games I've ever played. But hey, it's free now. People might as well try it no matter what we say.

Thats crazy. Now I need to take a bite at Dokuro and SF Vs Tekken. I have been waiting for these games to go on sale.
Haha, I think a 128GB from Sony would rival a PS4 in the price department.

it is a good day to be a vita owner.
the biggest problem now is finding the time to play these gems.

Pure Chess is stellar - looks absolutely beautiful. Played a few ASync games against Toma and lost many of them (all) lol
Dokuro is huuuuuuge. I agree $20 is steep, but it's easily worth $15. $10 makes it a must-buy.
The Wild Arms series soundtracks are all pretty top notch stuff. Unique for blending spaghetti western style music/atmosphere with usual JRPG fantasy and sci-fi conventions.
The battle music will get stuck in your head, and the opening will make anyone who has never played it, but played other 90s RPGs, wish for actual, decently made animated openings again.
100% Ambassador level freeness. No thinking, just download
I would have bought SFxT since that ended up as one of my tops in the fighting flood this gen (thats right) but seems more of my friends have UMvC3... Are the Vita d-pad controls actually good for that?

I'm so impatient! *cry*
Thanks for the free games. And time to pick up Ultimate Marvel VS Capcom. I always wanted that on my Vita at all times, that and SFxT, a nice combo!
What's Sine Mora with trial mean?

Dokuro was a retail game in Japan. It has a platinum trophy and everything.
If you notice, every game listed for free are Sony owned properties. Sony doesn't own Grandia.
Means that you have to download the demo, and an unlock key.
Hey quick question...
If i log into my PSN account on a PS3, can I download all the games and DLC I bought on PSN through my VIta....ie. could I transfer these free games to a ps3 after "purchasing" them on my vita?
My sis has a PS3 and we would like to share an account....another question...can we play Vita/PS3 games (PSABR) against each other on the same account.
