Good to see Sly up for PS+ in Europe this month, I'll take that. Haven't played a Sly game before so I may as well give it a shot.

Not too much else going on for EU on Vita this month right? We don't even get Conception 2 this month.

Demon Gaze is the game I'm most excited for. Kind of bummed theres been like zero talk anywhere for this game on GAF especially after the really positive impressions from folks who played the JP version.

Somehow I am on that list since I barely made posts in the last week or so.

Much aggressiveness. PSN gaf is dead.

You are in for a treat, as Sly 4 is a great platformer that took what was great from Sly 1 and 2 and made it even better :). The story isn't the greatest, the load times are long (notably on Vita) and the frame rate does drop a bit (though the game is mostly 60FPS on PS3 and a very stable 30FPS on Vita with Native Res), and the final level is the weakest of the series, but the rest of the game is a great throwback to the good old days of PlayStation platformers like Jak and the original Sly games :).

Sounds good, and stable 30FPS sounds great on the Vita, especially if it's native res.

Just realised a slow month for the Vita is probably a blessing in disguise for me. Piles of university work to get on to, not to mention a growing backlog including FFX-2 D:

Wait... so Stealth Inc. is also a part of PS+?

So they're throwing everything under that Curve Bundle into PS+? Damn.

It sucks man (I got Thomas, Stealth and Proteus from the the 14 for 14 sale and got Lone Survivor on launch day...) but at least others can play those great games for 'free' :). At the very least the PS4 version of Stealth Inc. isn't going to be free (though I expect it to be part of PS+ latter on...).

Seems like a pretty light month over all- not that a breather month isn't unwelcome. Might get around to finishing Puppeteer or Beyond Good and Evil this month. Psyched to try Mercenary Kings and Child of Light, though.

Same boat with college work (though in my case, only about 5 more weeks left until the end of the semester) and Vita backlog (god...I have almost 100+ games on Vita alone) but that's the beauty of the Vita; there is always something to play on it :).

Definitely downloading Mercenary Kings. I'm morbidly curious about RBI baseball. I'm looking forward to diving back into FFXIV on PS4. Also really interested in Daylight.

Loved Puppeteer when I beat it last February, so I hope you enjoy it :). Didn't play much of Beyond Good and Evil (even though I got it...almost a year and a half ago) but what I played of it was a very fun Zelda-type game. Do you own Arkam City? Because that game has TONS of content and with it being the free PS3 game this month (in US at least, don't know if you have EU+ or not) means that it can tide you over for quite a long time (I remember taking the whole summer of 2012 to beat the GOTY version + playing half way through New Game +).

Man this will be a crazy month

I'm most likely going to pick up Child of light, Demon Gaze, Conception 2, Strike Suit Zero, and Daylight.

Would have bought FFXIV , and Mercenary Kings also but those will be mine for free (relatively speaking due to the subscription for FF)

I'm picking up nothing this month it seems. Doesn't matter, I have too much if a backlog anyway. I need to beat A Link Between Worlds which is just an amazing game. It really captured the feel of ALTTP.

Oddly enough its pretty exciting that there isn't much releasing this month. It gives me a chance to play some awesome games in my backlog without the distraction of shiny new games every Tuesday.

Happy April! I was pretty absent from last month's thread. Picking up Mercenary Kings and Daylight this month.

Of course you're getting Merc. Kings -- it's free.

baekshi said:
yes most of it is unlocked and you don't have to do it again. you still have to do the tutorial in the opening because it introduces new stuff.


yes this too, all of it is new.
Click to expand...

I don't know if that's a good or a bad thing.
I mean, how many of those pacts are recycled? They only added like 7 new archfiends, right?

So I suppose they're all new because it's "fight this new archfiend with this old one!" or something, right?

Is Ragnarok Odyssey Ace for vita supposed to be any good? I am interested but the original got poor reviews for repetitiveness.

Pisses me off because every single small psn title (Lone Survivor, Pixeljunk, Stealth, etc) they've given the Vita for March and April were on sale with a PS+ discount during Jan and Feb -___- Get your act together Morgan Haro. This is some bullshit

Made an agreement with another GAF member, refused to honor it because he was broke, but then had no problem continuing to buy video games.
Hey, I graduate the day Demon Gaze is coming out! Could it be a signal?

Well, you'll have to do those 10 chapters again... that could take some time.
though plenty of old and new archfiends there, but all those quests are new . in online , you can pick it to be more difficult so theres also that. they also have a section to download time limited event pacts.

and this...

Your shilling worked wonders too. I went from having no interest in the game to buying it day 1. No idea how that happened

Servers will weep when MLB:The Show drops tomorrow.

Can't wait!

This month I'm hoping a couple of PsOne releases come out that interest me.

I'm picking up Demon Gaze at retail.

i've been begging for over 5 years.
I'm baffled as to why PS3 version of The Show is up and ready for download but the Vita version is nowhere to be found. I probably shouldn't be surprised at all that SCEA forgot that the Vita version exists.
