So I already have Gravity Rush ( fucking GOTY so far) and Hot Shots Golf: World Invitational (super addictive game) and ordered Shinobido 2, Any other good game? (I like almost all genre but mostly the "unique experience" like Folklore, Alice Madness Return, Gravity Rush..ect).

Note: I'm going to buy Uncharted: Golden Abyss ( was burnt out of Uncharted after that U3 disaster but people say it's kinda different and actually good), Also no PSN only stuff please since I still can't buy anything from there.

are FIFA and Virtua Tennis 4 "full" on games like on console? or missing something/bad ports?

And how is Resistance: Burning Skies ? it's not developed by Shitomniac so it can't be that horrible like R2 and R3. right? right? ( Resistance: Retribution is the best game of the series because it was developed by a good studio).

Let me recommend a site for you then.

If we get the same preorder bonus as Japan (which we usually do), then these will come in handy.

Cool, didn't know about those :O Although, I like how my current ones are dynamic. The backgrounds are the standard vita ones with an persona overlay, so everytime I scroll, the color changes gradually.

I want plenty of games, but that's the one I'd like to see on sale next week too. I'm not holding out much hope though, I expected them to drop it this week to coincide with the DLC. If they drop it next week, there will be plenty of annoyed people who picked it up this week... but that's business I guess... so it could happen.

Normally, next week are psp and mini games that are on sale so I wouldn't count on wipeout. I personally hope god eater burst goes on sale, been planning to pick that one up for a while now.

I changed my backgrounds on my home pages, hooray! I won't share them though as they are spoilery screenshots from Gravity Rush. But they're gorgeous so i'm using them as backgrounds.

(To note: I only watch films, DL'ed, on a portable device on long-haul flights.)

On a related note, can I share Netflix accounts between devices? I'm assuming I can...

We're a sophisticated bunch looking for sophisticated devices. I'd extend the question to ... Did you buy the device yourself or get it as a gift? I predict that most spent their own hard earned money. Of the 25+ year olds, how many have kids and as a result spend less time on the ps3? There's probably quite a few Vita owners in this exact situation.

Both FIFA and Virtua Tennis are good ports from what I understand. I haven't played them though, as I'm not a big sports game person.

Resistance will divide opinions. Others will say its shit from start to finish, but I thought it was fine. It'll look and play like a cheap game that lacks polish, but the fundamental things like shooting work really well. Perfectly shows that a FPS game can work on a handheld without making any dramatic compromises. Story is short. 6-7 hours to platinum the game. There is also multiplayer, which is surprisingly fun.

I'd go to Resistance Burning Skies OT to ask for some opinions,but I honestly can't do that with Resistance games since Resistance people always say and insist that the games are mighty classics and perfect when they are in fact total waste of worthless garbage (like Resistance 3).


Also why most of Vita launch games are way expensive and still in full price at Amazon.com, come on son/sony

If Resistance: Burning Skies was on PS3 it would be in the same category of games as Spark Unlimited's. Take that for what you will. It's a nice showcase of the potential Vita has for first person shooters, but once something good comes no one will remember it.

GEB needs to price drop permanently. It's been reduced to 10 euro on EU psn for months already.

I hope SE sends Dissidia 012 and Parasite Eve to sale for next week - I need to make my transfer to digital versions of those two :)

If you thought Resistance 3 was worthless garbage there is a zero percent chance you'll like burning skies.


My review of it is here... Basically I think it's average in just about every way imaginable, your enjoyment level with it will depend on whether you find playing a FPS on a handheld novel and how you feel about the resistance universe.

Also it's the easiest freaking platinum ever. ;)



And launch games will remain high for a while if the 3DS is any indicator. I bought a 3DS at launch and it wasn't until the fall games came out that the launch games dropped in price. And by then I didnt care about the launch games I was waiting for....

The compression used for the full motion video in that game is unparalleled. I've never seen anything so poor in my life. This shit is worse than Youtube videos posted in 2005 at times.

Not surprising considering June ends next week but knowing Sony we could've expected the event to not happen.

This information is not coming from Sony so there's that.

Rayman Origins is my unquestioned recommendation for Vita. I feel as a game it works better on the handheld than on the big consoles (ignoring lack of coop) and the art is a perfect match for the screen.

Waiting for Tekken and Soul Calibur PSP to price drop. $40 a pop is absurd, Namco.

Even more absurd is how much money these dumb companies are leaving on the table. Why isn't either of the two Phantasy Star Portable games on PSN? Doesn't Sega want my money? Can't R* afford the couple thousand dollars in Q&A testing needed to dump the ISOs of LCS/VCS?

It would make sense if these companies were stalling because they planned on releasing Vita "Remaster" double packs of these old games, but there's not a single indicator showing this to be the case.

How good is the battery in the Vita? Im thinking of buying one but I go away for school for a semester at a time (about 4 months) and I'm not taking any games with me because its intense studying. I'm wondering if not using it for months at a time will destroy the battery quickly. It happened with my psp and old iPhone.
