Unless there is another game that EU/NA already got in the past, I guess it's pretty much sure both EU and NA PS+ will get exactly the same games starting next month.

No need to bother subscribing to both.

Pretty good month for Vita owners in terms of PS+. We get 4 games, though I already have Dragon's Crown. But it'll be good to finally have a digital copy to free up the cart slot.

Edit: Now that I look at it, PS3 also gets 4 games. Hurray for crossbuy!

Excited for the PS+ games this month. I like how PS+ gives me a chance to sample some indy games that I might not have looked at otherwise.

Disgaea 4 then SAO the week after.

Thank you August.

It's been a while since there were 2 games I really want to play in the same month.
I'll get SAO first since it's digital only and wait a while for Disgaea 4 (I might be able to get a used copy for half the price later).

Have you played Dragons Crown yet? If not, add it to the pile. August is a great month for the Vita and PS+.

I thought Minecraft was delayed into September? Or was that never confirmed?

Jesus, only 67 posts? What's gotten into me? At least I made it onto the wall :lol

The more I play P4G the more I realize how well the Vita works for RPGs. So many times I've just put my Vita into sleep mode and returned within 15-30 minutes. I really wish I would have just bought FFX|X-2 digital instead or that I could just buy FFX digital for $20 instead of having to buy both. I'd get rid of my FFX cart and buy it digital now in a heartbeat :(

New Thread! :)
Lots of games! :D ... my backlog :(

I switched to Japanese account and i played some demos:

Rayman Legends(is not on the EU store right?): It looked exactly like Origins with better graphics, the Murphy level was not bad, but i guess that a single easy level is not enough to judge.

Fantasy Hero: it's mission based, there's a sort of HQ, you choose a mission and you go on the area(in the demo it's always the same but with different paths), i played only with the gunslinger but i found it boring(maybe because at the beginning you can choose between normal attack and a skill that makes you fly), i don't like certain designs and the outline is completely wrong.

Sen No Kiseki: i liked it, graphics are nothing spectacular but pleasant and clean, i liked the battle system(turn based without squares), i love the beautiful portraits but man animations are so simple and woody that look amateurish.

Lost Dimension: i liked the battle system(turn based with free movements), i like its graphics, humanoid enemy design is a little bland, the lobby screen(the main screen with dialogues, options, equipments etc) has a low frame rate despite being completely static and circles are not really useful but at least the distance appears over every character and enemy(attacks and skills have ranges).

Oreshika: in download(2170mb).

i'll post some screens later or tomorrow.

It's a charming lil game. Didn't finish it, but I would go back to it should it ever be localized.

SCE helped localize it for the Korean and Chinese market. Maybe if they get a knock in the head they would too for the English regions.

Is the online PS store not working for anyone else? It just sticks on the initial loading screen. EU/AU here.

Edit: Its finally working.

Vita is officially the console of choice for farmers!
On PSM there's Farming USA that doesn't look worse than Farming Simulator but is cheaper, here the mobile version trailer:

Apparently Alien Shooter and Run Like Hell are coming to Vita

I would buy it.
A thing i forgot, the big number of characters, students with red uniforms, the group shot with weapons and flag in the opening heavily etc heavily remind me of Type 0, but Sen No Kiseki is all story(no boring free time, no rts etc) so it looks funnier to me.

Hmm, new thread smell!

Quick question chaps - I'm in discussion to buy a used US CoD Declassified to play in the UK on my UK/eu PSN account. Would I be able to access the multiplayer in that scenario?

Was pretty much just Spelunky and rhythm games last month for me and yet I still snuck in there at the very end. August will probably be a bit more involved.

Several big news sites have reported on that possibility now, 4J frustratingly haven't commented. Which is more concerning than anything really.

Yes, I bought a used copy of the vita version a few months ago. Sold it at the same price I paid for it, since used copies of this game are rare over here. Decent game, but besides graphics and music I wasn't amazed by the game at all.

You should feel ashamed of yourself. What happened to the Flandy that posted a lot and banned everyone who posted more?

The vita is perfect for jrpgs thanks to sleep mode

From the previous thread:
Hey guys, check this out:

We need to change this if we want more Vita games :p
I'll take it now
 
lots of games this month. probably akiba's trip and/or neptunia for me. have to finish rorona first before anything else XD
 
Don't think I'll buy any of the new titles this month, saving money for september since I'm planning on buying the white PS4/Destiny bundle

It's a metroidvania with randomly generated map. Every time your character die you choose between one of his sons that can have certain unique or weird traits, with the money you get you buy abilities and upgrades.

Not really. It's a "roguelike", but not a "Metroidvania". That term implies certain exploration aspects that are not present in Rogue Legacy. You don't get new abilities that allow you to progress further into the dungeon/level, as you do in a Metroid game. You can tackle any are of the castle as soon as you want and the only limit you have is your own skill as a player.

It's actually much more similar to Spelunky than to Metroid/Castlevania. Get a randomly generated map, die, repeat. You do get to choose one from among your descendants each new run, though.

I am tempted to buy Diablo 3 Ultimate on PS3, I played it on 360 (normal version) and I loved the control with a pad, and sold it when this new version was announced. But I have now a good PC, so I am not sure what to do...

Heh. I put 90+ hours into PC version. I'm tempted by ps4 version because of remote play.

Just not sure I would get into it as much a second time round.

I haven't played console version before so I don't know the control differences. Due to how many skills work I can only assume mouse and keyboard us the better option.

Yay, new thread!
Don't know whether I'll buy anything day 1 in August although I am interested in a lot of those games. Just received Demon Gaze today and I still have to finish Ys:MoC so I am not in a hurry to buy new games.
