Oh no, not what I wanted to hear :-(

I'd settle for shitty Phantasy Star Portable-level graphics if it meant total parity with the PC versions. I was hoping it'd be completely seamless, but this level of fragmentation from the outset will probably carry over into things like updates and DLC.

I can't help but think of valkyria chronicles 1 --> 2 with the difference in the maps ><

why because it's an awesome JRPG which a huge cast of characters, that will require at least 3 play throughs to get them all :p

Theres a huge (430mb) update for smart as and just stability fixes... psn downloads sooo sloooow

Holy crap, I didn't realize it was that big.
It had downloaded overnight automatically.

What a waste of space.
At least I can sync with the online leader boards now.

Shit - just traded this game in with two other games, so it counted as a "3 games for bonus $10 deal" and therefore they only gave me $11 for it rather than $20 - had another game that I wanted to get rid of when I got home so I could have brought that and still gotten both deals...

(tl;dr - I missed out on a free 20 GameStop dollars)

Console me VitaGAF

If you put the $20 credit towards another used game you would've gotten an additional 50%, plus your Powerup Rewards 10% to make it $32.
 
Hmm, let's see if we can account for all the TCG/CCG games on PSP:

Eye of Judgment Legends (JP/EU/NA)
Flowars (KR) [UMD Only]
Marvel Trading Card Game (EU/NA) [UMD Only]
Warhammer: Battle for Atluma (NA) [UMD Only]
Weiss Schwarz Portable: Boost Schwarz (JP) [UMD Only]
Yu-Gi-Oh! GX Tagforce (JP/EU/NA) [UMD Only]
Yu-Gi-Oh! GX Tagforce 2 (JP/EU/NA) [UMD Only]
Yu-Gi-Oh! GX Tagforce 3 (JP/EU) [UMD Only]
Yu-Gi-Oh! 5Ds Tagforce 4 (JP/EU/NA) [UMD Only]
Yu-Gi-Oh! 5Ds Tagforce 5 (JP/EU/NA) [UMD Only]
Yu-Gi-Oh! 5Ds Tagforce 6 (JP) [UMD Only]

I guess you could count Uno, lol. For some reasons PSP had an adaptation of the Battle Spirits card game but they were Monster Hunter clones rather than card game ...

Doesn't one of the Final Fantasy's have a card game or something included in it, that you can play with random people you encounter in the game?

Anyway, also enjoying the Uncharted one, it's pretty good, though an early lead can be pretty fatal quick.

These things are pretty easy to make by the way. I could imagine we make a NeoGaf one ourself using a tonne of NeoGaf tropes and weird card-style art from NeoGaf as well, from bitmap stuff to rough drawings etc. Could be pretty great. And we should probably make it pretty hardcore too, with lots of resources and special combinations (and then add an easy mode ;) ). I bet I (or any other programmer here) could make an engine to drive those graphics in no-time. Send moves as persisted bits of xml or bin by email should be a breeze.

Gonna trade in marvel and ac3:L for either lbp or p4g. Help me choose gaf!

I'm just gonna get bb from amazon. The prices for it at retail are ridiculously higher than psn or amazon.

Man, one of my favorite RPGs back in the day, and I remember defending it from the haters on the RPG board on GameFAQS....I think just because I saw this post, I'm going to buy it for PSN.

This and Legend of Mana.

But I still have to finish Growlanser IV...

Damn it.

Isn't LBP on sale for 20? Buying that, trade in the two for P4G.

See, I am surprised EA don't do card games for XBLA, PSN, etc based on the Ultimate Team part of their games.

Speaking of PS1 games. I'm getting a 32gb card into which means keeping more than one game around at a time. How do Grandia and Parasite Eve play by today's standards? I'm pretty sure I own both in original disc form, but never played through them.

Big Sky Infinity seems fun so far. There was already a patch when I downloaded that said "Added new Trailer enemy - Various bug fixes." Experienced a tiny moment of framerate slowdown, but so far so good.

so... with the news that blizzard has diablo 3 running on consoles... how many people in here would love that on the vita?

Go away. Such a disappointment :'(

FUCK YES.

I don't care about it being a 'disappointment'

It's a good game would attract a lot of attention to the vita

never happening
 
God, PS3 to Vita transfers are so fucking slow. I'm so glad I have a 32GB now and will most likely not have to go through this process again for a long while.

Why don't they just give us a list of all content so we don't have to go through each category separately?

Don't want it or any loot game at all. They seem to be getting increasingly shallow and as an added insult no one can make a good loot system anymore.

Hench why Ruin is taking so long! Trying to reinvent the system yo!
That'd be nice. Darksiders 2 came out, and they thought to themselves "oh hey, why get pidgeonholed into an isometric game with boring combat and the worst kind of movement? Maybe we can make it an action game!"

And sadly they ended up creating a shallow loot driven adventure ...
I kid ... kinda. But yeah if the rampant ARPG releases of this year is any indication, the genre is shallow as hell and REALLY needs something new.

PSM store doesn't update for another few hours.

Should we expect that the normal store update is finished? :/ Still missing ZHP and the sale ends next week.

I don't think so; the ps blog post isn't up.
Scratch that, it's up. Hopefully your ZHP sale is live.

Up on the storefront in fact. I have it. Been playing it.

Odd. Storefront looked a little updated to me, but I didn't check too hard since the ps blog post wasn't up.
Edit: Actually it is now. Whoa.

Compared against the last few years? Yes.
Although Grim Dawn is still not out.

I'm not debating it -- I haven't bought a lot of games this year.
I was just wondering what games had come out, other than Darksiders 2, probably?

Ok, let's see how bad PSN's download speed really is... 18gb+ download started: 5:22pm
