Vita PSN Game & Service Thread | May 2013 | Lovecraftian Wasteland

nods at old men
I have talked with Bloober Team (the one behind A-MEN for PS3 and PS VITA) and received info on:
- Medium
- Deathmatch Village
- Die! Die! Die! (a new VITA game from their subsidiary iFun4All)
- New Vita game

If you can still find out, why didn't A-Men come to Vita in NA?

Now that the PSM SDK is free, I might have something to play around with this summer.

And by play around I mean download, install, look through the documentation, and forget about.

How awful is Madden vita?

Had some expiring gamefly coupons letting me buy it for 6$ (nothing else I wanted even a little bit that wasn't way more money) but the trade in on amazon is 10$ so if it sucks I'll just toss it there.

It lacks a lot of the fancier stuff found in PS360 Madden 13, and its cutscene things during games can suffer from pretty rough framerates at times. But as long as you remember to patch it, gameplay wise it's a good and pretty decent looking game of Madden. The gameplay itself doesn't suffer from the same framerate problems either, luckily.

For $6? Yeah, more than worth it for quick games on the go.

I'm sure it is Plants vs Zombies 2.

If fits perfectly. And it's a great title.

Obviously, it's not what most people want anyway. Vita is completely doomed, because even when it gets games, people don't care anyway.

Sure do hope we get Angry Birds Friends next!
Just don't think it's a title worth hyping.

Is it possible the P game could be a Persona game? Like either Persona 3 Golden, Persona 4 Arena or a port of Persona 5? I know people were saying that it's unlikely to be a Japanese game but maybe???
 
I doubt Plants vs Zombies 2 would make people go 'WTF!?' so it's either a surprise that this game would come to Vita or... it's, weird, I guess? PvZ 2 wouldn't really be surprising.

Don't think it's Persona since Shahid mentioned he signed the 'P' game, and I doubt he'd go from signing European indies to signing an Atlus game.

Just gonna keep my hype in place. Expecting the worst usually helps. Keeping my hype for a GT Vita.

I'm sorry I'm not really in the loop with these things, but did he say that he himself actually signed the P game or perhaps it's just a game he knows is coming to the Vita and wanted to share? I really can't think of any "P" game that isn't Persona that could A) be coming to the Vita and B) make people go "WTF."

The thought of GT on vita got me thinking: I kind of wish the sticks were ridged like the Xbox and ps4's.

How are racing games with the vitas sticks? I feel like I noticed my fingers slipping even just rotating the camera in P4G .

I think there's confusion about this. :p

He mentioned two games - one which begins with 'P' which he himself has signed, and a big game that will 'hook you for hours a day' and isn't an indie.

He listed the 'P' game alongside other indie titles he's signed like Luftrausers and Terraria (he has teased it before a month or so ago, too) so that will almost definitely been an indie title (possibly a new IP?) and not Persona.

The big title could be Persona, but my money is on Gran Turismo or another big Sony franchise.

Bleh now I have to quote

Ah makes sense. Yeah I came in late and assumed the 'p' game and the hyped one is the same!
 
that big "P" game could just mean that big "playstation" game....which would refer to any 1st party title.

I don't think hes referring to GT, but i do think GT will come to vita indefinitely.

I didn't want to start a new thread about this, and couldn't find the Golden Abyss OT, but I need HELP!

I downloaded and installed the latest game patch for Uncharted:GA (Cart version)... now the game will no longer start. It hangs on the initial splash screen for the game (Drake jumping from the ledge.) On top of that, if I cancel it starting it pretty much breaks my Vita session... I can no longer load any apps, nor do a graceful shut down. I need to hard boot it.

Anyone see anything like this before? What are my options? Must I somehow "format" the Cart and lose all my save progress?

HELP PLEASE!

Thanks!

Edit: Nevermind, my vita downloaded a system update last night... I just installed it and the problem went away. Phew! :D
 
Before I get hopes up, let me ask:

In no language does Metal Gear Solid start with a P? Perhaps Phantom Pain?

If so can I clean the poo from my pants?

(Kojima better put some form of MGS out on this thing after teasing 4 could run on it)

Vitamuffins, I'm working on a project for my masters degree. I basically have a market research class, and I'm using the Vita as my case study. For you guys, what are the product attributes that lead to your purchasing decision? For instance, for a car you might list "leather interior", "bluetooth compatibility", "sun roof", etc. I don't need 100 responses, but 4-5 would really help me out. Full disclosure, I'm on a deadline. 60 hour work weeks, a wife that works nights, along with a 10-month old daughter, means I'm running on fumes.

Cheers,

RedNo5

-Dual, real analog sticks
-At release, OLED
-At release, overall power: quadcore cpu, quadcore gpu, dedicated vram
-PSN implementation

This attributes boil down to the possibility of console gaming on the go.
 
Since it won't be anything we want like PSX Spyro or PSX Crash (yeah I'm reaching),
How about some Phantasy Star? It could happen... I mean in perfect universe and all

That's the spirit!

In a perfect world Phantasy Star 2 Online Vita would already be out in the West along with the PC version with them both being as up to date with content as the Japanese version is.

Instead we'll get the PC version when episode 2's out in Japan with barely any updates and no Vita version here :(
P Game? COOL?

Has nobody seriously guessed Parappa yet? :(
I'm suprised that never even occured to me. It would be pretty awesome if we finally got a 3rd Parappa The Rapper installment, especially if it was a Vita title.

Excuse me... how can you see that polish site on english!?

I mean, I see the text on english, but all the site it's on polish... has two versions or has some articles on english???

It looks a very interesting site...

I had some time and wanted to reach a broader audience with my article (especially as it's not some random sh*t article, or repost). Glad you liked it.

I find it strange that Amazon.uk does not have TEARAWAY for pre-order but other sites already have it. I hope they match the price when they put the game up for pre-order. It's a decent price and I usually add another small item to get free super saver delivery (free shipping).
 
Hrrrm...

Looking ahead to this fiscal year, Sega expects to have software shipments of 11.66 million, with the PlayStation 3 getting 7 games, the PS Vita getting 5, and the PSP at 2. Without naming any names, they also said that they “intend to make our game software compatible with the next-generation game machines, which are due to be launched.”
 
Does Phantasy Star Online 2 for the Vita in the US count as one of the 5? Please?

No games meme will become only indie games meme.

If the Vita can make it to the point of a Soul Sacrifice 2, Gravity Rush 2, and another Bend game on top of all the other things in between, it is more than a resounding success in my eyes. It has already been worth it in my eyes.

Whatever that P game is it's going to be hella disappointing. Especially now that people are throwing all sorts of non-indie titles into the guessing game. Since it was something said by Shahid, the likelihood of him talking about something else than an indie game is extremely low.


Sega as in Sega in Japan or Sega global? Pretty sure that Sega will never localize any Vita game unless it has Sonic in it. That's how it's been so far.
