Tokyo jungle? Journey? Unfinished swan?

Sound Shapes, Gravity Rush, I'd even say Starhawk was a risky game trying something new, just poorly thought out and executed. Then we have puppeteer, tearaway, last of us, soul sacrifice and beyond 2 souls next year. those are all Sony published new IPs.

 

[Callibretto]

lolz, So no more Third Party non Stars Fake Smash? good riddance..it was a waste of Sony money and our time.

it just tell you how crappy Shu Yoshida in his job, remember early this gen when Sony was the place to go for new and unique titles like LocoRoco,War of the Monsters and puplishe risky but amazing games like Folklore and Demon's Souls, all that gone with Yoshida.

Shu Yoshida = Wonderbook and Third Party non Stars.

and people wonder why Vita is fucked and why PS3 feel like a wasteland compared to the early years.

but well, he always tweets so he is cool.

okay now I'm really curious, what has shuhei done to you? you may not like allstars, and I bet wonderbook is gonna happen regardless of Shuhei because that's the kind of thing SCEE actually like to do (singstar for example).

we still got Journey, Unfinished Swan, tearaway, puppeteer, tokyo jungle and many publisher's risque games under him. he also greenlight old classics like twisted metal and sly 4.

I also assume he okayed Naughty Dog expansion so they can work on 2 teams now, so that mean he also probably had role on Last of Us.

Vita is fucked, but games are the least of it's problem. PS3 is a wasteland because of bad timing management. everyone would love to have some of those 2013 games like GoWA or Last of Us for 2012 holiday, but shuhei actually didn't rushed it out and give the dev the time they need.

 

[corrosivefrost]

Hooray!

Just got my $10 code from the promo last month.

What to buy...

Got mine too... thinking about Uncarded... but man, I really don't care about the universe... I don't tend to play CCGs for things that don't interest me.

Does psn show my ps3 friends what I'm playing on my vita? And that I am in fact playing it on a vita?

PS3 users can tell that someone is on a Vita because it won't load anything about them and drops them to the bottom of the friend list. There's no support currently, and I doubt we'll see it for the PS3 given how long it took for trophy support.

nothing,it's not personal. (and no it's not about rejecting Folklore 2)

but it's clear that he is not a good head for SCE software at all. just see how crappy their output went since he got on top compared to the early years.

He is more into PSN games that no one care about, Twisted Metal was bad and it's clear that he got no quality control over most these project unlike Phil.

You can't really talk about Journey, Unfinished Swan, Datura, Papo & Yo, Puppeteer, Tokyo Jungle, Beyond, Pixeljunk stuff, Dyad, Sound Shapes, Vita AR-titles, Tearaway, PSM with all indie titles as not risky, don't you? ;-)

Oh thanks. Seems like such an easy thing to implement. Messaging from vita to ps3 and back works great.

I'd imagine it has to do with messaging and trophies being handled in a global PSN server as opposed to being console specific. It's why you still get things like previously read messages on PS3 showing up as un-read on the Vita. Since the PS3 wasn't really future proof'd for something like the Vita, I'll take what I can get in terms of connectivity, but I wouldn't expect much other than what we already have. I picture the whole PS3 XMB infrastructure as a mess of a structure being held together by duct tape with every new update just building on top of it.

That's not accurate either though. Displaying full-size shows games in a worse light than they really are, but putting them in quotes shows them in a better light than they are.

If you guys upload screenshots to Flickr, I've compared my Vita screen at normal viewing distance to various sizes on my PC, and I found the one that most accurately shows what it looks like on a Vita, and that is the size "Medium 640". See here:

 

[MisterC20XX]

Shameless, and I'm not talking about Activision http://www.videogamer.com/wiiu/call...ions_was_developing_black_ops_2_for_vita.html

Shameless indeed, and to me it's pretty sad when I step back and think about the lost potential of COD on Vita to be a system seller.

well I suppose it depends on what size and resolution your monitor is. I'm looking at this on a 1680x1050 monitor right now and your screens are quite a bit bigger than the Vita screen. (edit: and I compared the quoted screens and surprisingly they are only slightly smaller than the Vita screen on this but the way the browser downsizes them maybe adds a free AA effect that makes it look a bit better than it actually would)

 

[corrosivefrost]

Did someone in here recommend Red Star for PSP? Thinking about it with the $10 I got back since it's $4.99...

 

[zroid]

that's not really it, problem is Vita games that aren't at native res (ie most of them) get upscaled in screen captures, so they look kinda bad.

if you resize the images closer to the correct resolution, they look more accurate

Well, they're bigger than on my Vita screen too, but that size is what I found most accurately portrays what they look like on the Vita screen in terms of aliasing and IQ.

OH. And looks like we got another native-res game: Sly 4.

And closer to how it would look on the Vita screen:

Looks native-res to me, anyway.

Anyone reckon we'll get support for animated wallpapers or dynamic themes on the vita ?

I think they will want to sell that sort of things to people, so yeah it's highly likely.

Omg. You have to go to all ps3 games then sort by newest first to find these games.

They don't come up in search, and they don't come up in the classic section at all. What the hell Sony?

Yeah we have to find a loophole or we'll lose our community. Although, I don't see why we couldn't get a continuation of Games and Services. It's not like the Vita's games and services are leaving after we get 20000 posts.

[eighty(one)]

curious, did you play COD Vita?

My biggest issue with it is the price - $49.99 for what it is is -really- pushing it. However, the game itself isn't that bad at all. Also - people seem to be missing the point of the game a little - that or game reviewers were expecting something else from the game.

Removal/lack of a full "single player" experience was the right thing to do for me. The replacement with the short one-death-and-it's-game-over missions was exactly the way to go with a handheld game. Now, for me, i can see playing on 1 star you could bomb through this in an hour or two, but playing it on the 3 star setting changes that.

Then you have the horde style modes which , again, multi difficulty settings give you something to replay over and over.

Online worked fine, the small maps are just a little too small in that spawn killing does take place but again - it was all as expected.

$49.99 ... that's the sticking point. $29.99 would have been about right. However, the idea that the game is out and out garbage isn't accurate - it's not going to win GOTY but neither is it a steaming turd.


I should add that i am absolutely itching for Rainbow 6 Vegas's terrorist hunt style gaming on the Vita and between Unit 13 and this, the itch is starting to be scratched.

agree 100%

Your way with eloquently conveying the game, hit the nail on the head.

it really is an enjoyable COD experience, tailored for playing in bursts (handheld). The game is priced a bit high, but it feels authentic and not like a facsimile (knockoff). As one of the few who seem to enjoy the game, I've gotten my moneys worth. I play it daily.

 

[Callibretto]

I like this thread, the frequent poster are very knowledgeable about vita the thread is active enough you can simply ask your question and get answer pretty quick. rather than having to browse through pages looking for answer.

also, game recommendation at the top of page post is a very neat idea. give us some kind of mini topics to talk through in every page.

 

[Yopis]

So, Google+ just launched this Communities thing, so I made a Vita community. I have no idea if anybody even uses this G+ thing or not. *laughs* If anybody cares, though, it's called "Let's ♥ Vita!".

If it actually gets any use, I can add categories or do whatever else people want/need.

Will check it out.

[zulux21]

so.... I think the two features i really want added are the ability to hide bubbles (so many useless ones included with the system :/) and the ability to chance the system music to a song on my vita without running the music app.

as I wouldn't mind Master Plan's Sail on playing as my menu music ^^

is there a way to search through your music on the vita to add it?
with 17k plus songs in my music folder it's taking forever to get to sail on to add it to my vita as I am only trying to copy a select few songs to my vita

um but you see it upscaled on the vita screen, so a frame capture would be what you're seeing on the screen (?) aside from the fact that the ppi is higher on the Vita than the device we will tend to be looking at it on the forum

Whhhhhyyyyyy?!?!?!?!?!!!


I live in NA (California), preordered PSABR Vita. Bought the game on launch, yet neither my receipt code (and the one posted a few pages back), allow me to download the preorder bonus on Vita.

i dont own aPS3, Im pretty pissed. Ive called Sony and tried their email support too (attached aphoto of my receipt) and they still inquired that they needed that :/

anyhow, are they ever going to fix the "Cannot download from PSVita system" error?

 

[zroid]

I thought the non-native stuff was output at a lower resolution. I guess I was confused, my bad!

Ignorance, I guess, only said that because everyone always seems to be complaining about games not running at native res, lol

That's what happens when you don't play the Vita for like a month and a half >_> *quietly slips away*
