Went to pick up a cradle at gamestop. Friend working there was like, "Look at this!" and pulls out a copy of NG Sigma +...that's street dated. Cock tease. >:[

Anyone else from UK Gaf had their £5 off pre-order discount emailed to them today/recently?

Received my email today, yet when i sign into PSN and enter my download code it says 'there was an error with the pre-order code'. I've definitely typed it correctly, bit miffed tbh.
 
My excitement levels just keep rising and rising from all the posts in this thread. You are doing your job well, FEB'ers.

I really feel like a majority of my game purchases will be on Vita this year, if I get the choice with some of the larger multiplatform titles.
The thought of "coming in whenever 2012 for PS3, Xbox 360, and PS Vita" becoming a normal thing to hear makes me so excited to think about. I have no idea how likely it is but it would be fantastic.

And I am not available in the lobby for games. Please, HSG people, help me out!

haha..I will join you as soon as I cave...which seems to be probably in the next week or so. HSG will definitely be one of the games I pick up. I will put my name on the spreadsheet when I get home.

The system does not wipe the memory card, but all content from other region i.e. downloaded using other PSN account cannot be used. Also, the only way to switch accounts is to do a factory reset of your Vita.

Wow thats really stupid Sony, doesn't really effect me as I buy everything on my US PSN but still so damn stupid considering you can run stuff on any account on the PS3.

The first time I pressed home during a fifa match, dicked around in the menus, and returned to the exact point I was at with the commentators mid-sentence I think I shed a tear. This device is so well thought out.

Yep, lots of people have this problem. Will be fixed soon (before launch).

Hot Shots will be one of my launch games, along with Uncharted, and a third game to be determined. Add me to your PSN list if you'd like. I'm at: KungFuJedi

Woot! I will see you online. Looking at HSG, Lumines, and Rayman. I haven't decided on going digital or buying carts.

Have there been any Unit 13 reviews yet? Is it even out yet in US, I know it's a Europe launch game. I looks kind of interesting but I need to see more of it first.

I have read that FIFA is more like FIFA '10 and '11 and lacks many of the gameplay improvements that came with '12. Would you say this is accurate?

Would suck if lumines or ninja gaiden wasnt a part of the target deal. Was oping to get either of those along with Uncharted and Fifa.

I'm confused as to why everyone is saying SSD is the free game. Sony's site says nothing of Super Stardust.
http://us.playstation.com/psvita/systems/psv-system-bundle.html

In a live chat this week Jeff Rubenstein and John Koller announced that it would be SSD with the DLC for free.

I would have thought that Sony would revamp Room for the Vita. It should be able to connect to Home from Room. Make it happen Sony.

I feel like Room was revamped into Friend Network:

Stay out of the other threads man it will melt your brain with doom and gloom. lol.

I read all Vita related threads. I may not comment on them, but I am watching.

Jeeze that sounds ominous.

Not a launch game in Europe. One week later. And yes we have reviews over here but they're not good.


Did anyone try to play the SAMOURAI & DRAGONS beta ? It asks me to enter something after reading the conditions and I don't know what it is.

For developers to pledge support they need consumers to pledge support, and right now consumers aren't interested.

HOW DARE THEY TRY TO MAKE PROFITS. This is about looooove.

Is it true that Japanese Developers are already dropping support for the PSV?

http://www.joystiq.com/2012/02/16/rumor-japanese-vita-devs-jumping-ship-sony-responds/

I don't remember that being the case for the psp.

It's basically one unsourced Japanese opinion article from yesterday that's been reposted all over the Internet.

Really surprised to see 14 Vita owners in my neighborhood via near. I don't live in a big city either. I live in an old lady neighborhood.

Haha, everybody loves this, but everyone seems to hate the ULTIMATE Lobby:

sony-home1.jpg

* 32 player party
* Text chat
* Audio chat
* Private messaging
* Free roaming
* Open invitation (Anyone can see and walk into your party and request to join)
* 3D Clan clubhouse with custom items and suit up players

Games like Warhawk also has a war room table showing MP maps for strategizing.

Biggest problem is: The 3D world consumed too much memory on PS3. Art direction is also em... scary !

There is nothing about HOME I want to launch it for, although I haven't been there in a while. But that is a lobby to no where though.....it's just a lobby.

They added XML game launching for some games. You can gather players in Home, and then launch together into a game in the same team. When people quit the game, they will be returned back to Home automatically, in the same room. But it's probably too slow since PS3 needs to unload Home, and loads the new game. A light weight version may be interesting.

Vita get!

I'm pleased to say my case doesn't smell. If anything it smells like a new pair of sneakers.
I already screwed up on applying the SP. It's good thing I got the double pack.

Is it bad that the first thing I did was smell my case?

I could barely smell anything at all. Reports are way overblown or there's some batch differences.

Does that date still stand though? NZ and Aussie are PAL territories and we usually get the games the same week, or at the latest a week later and ours (New Zealand) isn't slated till March either.
 
This GAF HSG lobby was awesome. Pics later!

We're starting here in a sec.

I had to leave about to eat dinner and got a few things I have todo...If people are playing after I finish up ill play (which im sure there will be)....I dont wanna start a match that i probably wont be able to finish
