Trying to decide whether to get Trails in the Sky or Disgaea 3. I have Disgaea 4 on PS3, but haven't played it yet, and I played Disgaea 2 on PSP. I do get very-similar-game fatigue, but I love SRPGs and high-res...things. I already have Tactics Ogre though. I do plan on playing Disgaea 4 at some point (it's obviously not portable, so it takes me a while to get around to it), so if Disgaea 3 is exceedingly similar/inferior, then I'd probably rather avoid it. I'm also interested in Corpse Party, but people seem to recommend TitS the most.

I only have TiTS and Corpse party, but I can confirm that both these games are amazing and well worth your money. Disgaea seems fun too but I'm not really into SRPGs so I can't really comment on that. Either way, I don't think you can go wrong on any of these games.
 
Speaking about Tits all ghostligh games in EU PSN have been price dropped slightly:

International Athletics (PSP)
World of Pool (PSP)
Aedis Eclipse: Generation of Chaos (PSP)
Spectral Souls: Resurrection of the Ethereal Empires (PSP)
Persona 3 Portable (PSP)
Persona 2: Innocent Sin (PSP)
Legends of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (PSP)
Bundle: Persona 2 + Trails in the Sky (PSP)

Pre-ordered Resistance and Gravity Rush, MK is in transit. Loving my Vita, sad that so few people are giving it a chance. The Vita is the best thing to happen to handheld gaming since the original Gameboy.

There need to be more games for it to attract more people to the system. I don't know what kind of backwards planet do publishers live in nowadays but they're supposed to release games for the system so the install base grows, instead of waiting for the system to sell so they start making games for it.

Agreed. I'm baffled on a weekly basis as to how void of Vita content the PSN updates are. Also, why in the hell don't all the new minis work on Vita? WTF?

Mortal Kombat should be waiting for me at home when I get there. Anyone wanna play later?

I'd love to be in the same boat, but I pre-ordered from Toysrus.com (I had a giftcard to use, that's the only reason), and they apparently ship their goods via Carrier Pigeon, so who knows when it'll actually arrive at my house...

If I suck at MK on the console, is that a pretty good indicator that I shouldn't get MK for the Vita?

I used to be much better at it (on the SNES) but it appears those days are long gone!

I got BlazBlue for the PS3 before the Vita launched to get ready but I suck at that pretty much too. Thus, I haven't picked up BlazBlue for the Vita either.

Damn it why can't we get a discount (US), I would love TiTs : (

Can PSP demos be played on the Vita?

Some people have said that there are some PSP demos that do work, but all of the ones that I have tried do not, so i'm not sure. It does not work for most of the larger titles from PSP though (Peace Walker, Patapon, Monster Hunter, etc.) I'm not sure which ones do.

Yeah my main motivation was to see how Monster Hunter played with the second analog.

Oh gawd Mortal Kombat is soooo ugly :/

Plays like a dream though and is packed with Kontent. Shao Kahn as cheap as I remember. Will be on later if anyone wants a game. PSN: Freaknaught.

MH works decently well with it. The main problem is that pressing up or down changes the camera angle instead of just moving up and down like other games. It does make the playing experience a lot smoother when moving the camera while running around and dodging. But I find myself often accidentally changing the camera angle and then having to change it back.

God Eater Burst on the other hand works amazingly well in contrast. ^_^

Yeah, not really the same kind of game but Dissidia 012 is the same way. I could not get use to controlling the camera with the buttons, but the right stick works great. I've always been interested in how they are able to do that kind of control change considering the PSP did not even have a second stick. still I'm glad they did, because 012 is awesome.

I was just comparing the PSN Store prices for (retail) games with the prices on Amazon and noticed that there's no reason to get them on the PSN. Everything's cheaper on Amazon. I'm now wondering if that's just it. Will Sony simply put the games on there for them to be there or will they actually try to make me buy them on there?

I know there were discussions about the pricing of games in the past but Sony (and other publishers) have had some time now to adjust the prices and I think it's worth bringing up again. They're not giving me any incentive to purchase a bigger card at the moment. I'm fine with my 8GB currently and the fact that games are cheaper at retail than they are at the Store doesn't really help the cause either. It's been mentioned on the EU Blog that there are reasons why we don't see price drops or sales but just sitting there and doing absolutely nothing can't be helpful either.

A friend of mine decided to buy 4 from me, so I picked up a copy of 3. However, I do intend to buy the other games. Kind of interested to see if TitS will show up on Steam in the near future. Definitely want to play Corpse Party on Vita though.

My huge hands kept on pushing the knob down when I reach for x :<
Still not use to the smaller buttons heh.
 
Notice that there is a killzone liberation + symphon filter Logans shadow for $15 on ps3 psn.

Are both confirmed to work on vita? Loved both games.
 
Btw, maybe you guys already know this but Frobisher Says is free on EU store. Give it a try :D

Can someone please link me to the explanation of how to play this on my US account without having to reset my Vita? I never could get the Gravity Rush Demo to play.

Does anyone want to take turns getting the Humiliation trophy on MK? (Win a versus match with a flawless victory.)
 
Just got home with my MK copy. The character models are really lacking( maybe some UE3/Vita baby steps?) but the game runs SO SMOOTH. This game is packed with a ton of content. I also played an online ranked game and didn't see a single hick up, we were chatting back and forth the entire time too.

So, after two months of owning the Vita, I've noticed that the analog nubs feel a bit looser? It must be because of Super Stardust Delta and it's excessive use of analog sticks. Maybe I'm the only one? the only way I noticed was when I tried my friend's Vita which was new.

heh and people wanted the analog STICKS to have a clickable "L3/R3" function as well......how much more worn and torn would they be then?

Maybe, but to be fair, it could just be me. It's not broken but it feels a lot easier to move and doesn't give me the same resistance it did before.

My sticks still feel tight, and snap back properly, but my most played games (Hot Shots, Lumines, Rayman) are more dpad focused. Hopefully my Vita sticks don't end up as loose as my dualshock's.
 
Did anyone get the e-mail with the free 60 minute voucher code for skype as a reward for getting the PS VIta? I didn't get it. I think only people from USA can get it. I am using an EU account as a main one, but I also have an US account that I use sometimes. I checked the e-mail I tied to the US account but still i didn't received that e-mail. What do I need to do? Log with my US account, download Skype ON IT, and use and US Skype account too?

I'm a US user, and I received the 60 min of Skype credit.

I did NOTHING at all, other than play games on my Vita. I never downloaded the Skype app or anything.

Edit: I'll PM you my code, I don't want it since I don't use Skype at all.

Oh my friend thank you very much. I just inserted my telephone chip inside my 3G PS Vita to use 3G and I never put it back inside my phone, so now I am phonless. :( I really wnat to convince my father that he didn't throw money from the wiondows by buying it for me, since he thought by putting the phone chip, it can turn into a phone, but it couldn't. Now with those Skype credits IT IS a phone. Thanks again.

So according to a banned site(as far I know) Sony is going to have 20 "New" playstation experiences at E3 and over 200 platstation kiosks set up.
I won't link to the site because it's bannd, but you can find the information they link to on Sony's E3 site aswell:

http://www.sceainvites.com/show.php

http://www.sceainvites.com/

Come join PlayStation as we give the largest show in entertainment a triple shot of excitement. Be one of the first to witness the launch of more than 20 new gaming experiences. Meet up with developers one-on-one. Then check out the new lineup firsthand and keep on playing as long as you can.

I'm pretty sure that stuff like The Last of Us, Sony All-Stars, and God Of War will be apart of this, but still the "Launch" of, and "New" makes it sound like announcements. Lets hope it's worth it.
 
Depends on the region, I think Killzone works in NA but not EU.

That is really annoying how that works, since Sony decided to drop the price of K:L i decided to buy it, assuming it would work on my Vita, but of course i go to transfer it and it says there is no content there :(

I hope they fix that soon but I have a feeling its just gonna be something that gets forgotten about.

Picked up Unit 13 and its by far my favorite Vita title so far. Dont know what it is, reminds me a bit of "The Club." Yet another underrated gem. Havent even opened my copy of Mortal Kombat yet.
