Anybody else have trouble getting the Vita to connect to a PC? I'm trying to use the content manager, but after installation it still doesn't pick up the Vita. I must admit this experience has really soured me on the Vita. Advice on the matter would be appreciated.

OS: Windows Vista if that matters.

Do you have the content manager up on the Vita? I had the same issue then it installed drivers for it not sure if that's whats going on with you though. (I have Win 7)

Ape-escape and Resident Evil2.

Before dualanalog everything was unplayable. We gamers NEED dual analog, or else we won't survive. Everything in life is about dual analog.

Dual analog is overated..... big time. As if games pre dual-analog are unplayable. Really?

Dual analog support isn't just about the second stick. The PSP didn't even utilize the first stick for PSX, it was just the nub emulating 8-way digital. True analog control on the left stick makes a pretty big difference with how a game feels, especially for racing games.

I can't believe there still hasn't been a multiplayer FPS game released for the Vita yet -_- If Sony's strategy was to push Resistance far back enough to where I'll buy anything as long as it has online multiplayer, it worked. May 29th can't come soon enough..

I figured when the Vita was announced, publishers would be tripping over themselves in their hurry to push out a COD-like ripoff FPS game for launch.

Hey guys, I have a question: did the new PS Suite firmware issue fix up the browser?
I'm not asking if it's any better optimized or faster, I'm just wondering if you can access it mid game now without the Twitter workabout (basically, if it's multitaskable).

What do you guys think will be announced for the Vita this E3!?
These are my guesses:

-Final Fantasy Type-0
-Call Of Duty
-BioShock (Art,First Trailer)
-Sonic Generations
-RappaTheRapper 2
-KillZone
-Persona 4: The Golden
-Xseed might be there, just like the last few E3s, so they might announce something.
-Ports of Sony's HD Collections (like MGS:HD, Rayman Origins, Z.O.E, Mortal Kombat, etc.)

How about you !?

I'd really like a Killzone Vita stage demo and release date. A new MediEvil could be very cool, very underrated franchise in my opinion. Then of course Gran Turismo Vita, but I have a feeling they'd save something like that for TGS, if it's even happening. It better be.

IT's easy enough.


steam up the bathroom with hot water to keep dust on the ground. Best place to apply screen stuff.


And if dust or w/e does get trapped underneath. Use 2 pieces of scotch tape. 1 to lift the screen thing, 1 to pick up w/e is underneath.

That's like saying analogue controls are overrated, because it isn't as if the games in the pre analogue era are unplayable.

Exactly. I could easily see Polyphony doing some remarkable things using Near and the LiveArea. Think something along the lines of the Uncharted black market, except for swapping cars and other apparel.

Then of course posting the newest seasonal races on the LiveArea and clicking on it takes you straight to theseasonal event, like Hot Shots Golf.

I'm mostly hoping for localization of titles from Atlus, Gust, and Falcom.

What I think we'll see:
  • Call of Duty
  • Final Fantasy Type-0
  • Killzone
  • PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale

Plus more information about Final Fantasy X HD, Madden NFL 2013, and Warrior's Lair.

I was on the fence about whether or not to get a Vita, but with Sony's release of the PlayStation Suite Open Beta -- I'm an aspiring game developer -- I decided what the hell. With a little bit of hunting and watching on eBay, I was able to procure myself a Wi-Fi Vita with ModNation Racers Road Trip and a 4GB memory card for ~$200 late last week. Yesterday my new toy arrived, I unpacked it, set everything up, and all I can say is wow. I feel like the device is capable of far more than my mind can comprehend; I'm used to the what-you-see-is-what-you-get nature of Nintendo's portables.

I went through one or two of the "Welcome Park" activities that show off the features and also downloaded/played the demo of Uncharted. So far I'm pretty impressed. Aside from Uncharted (I loved all three on PS3), any recommendations for games worth picking up?

Wipeout looks incredible and plays great. I've also enjoyed the Lumines and Hot Shots Golf demos. Several people recommend the fighting games (i.e. Marvel vs. Capcom and BlazBlue), but I haven't tried those yet.

VITA is superior hardware, and 2nd stick. PSP was clunky. I didn't skip on the PSP either, had one since launch. But VITA is not offering me enough incentive to jump in, but the PSone support will push me over.

I really hope so. I actually thought it was already announced for the west until a few days ago.

Add an Elder Scrolls Travels game to the list and it would be an amazing E3.

Either way, I'd absolutely play a Fallout Vita game.

Accessing public WiFi hotspots #4689

I'm sure I must be missing something obvious (but then again, I thought the same on my Android phone and had to download an app to make it work), but how do I access public WiFi spots that require you to use the web browser to log in?

I can connect to them okay, but when I open up the browser it just stays on an empty page.

This page talks about a 'custom' setting in the WiFi settings, but I can't seem to find it:

4 new apps. 2 related to music and movies.
5 video game montages of released and already announced games
2 new game announcement with a teaser trailer with nothing but the game logo and developer and music that doesn't make sense.
1 new game announcement with gameplay but won't be out until late 2013 and early 2014.

oh and new bundle which includes a 4GB memory card with same price. (WIFI only) the 3G won't be mentioned at all.
