I'm buying Super Stardust Delta when I get my system from Amazon, but I'm not getting the 3G Launch Bundle.

Nope neither
OoooOo, now that's interesting. I might play much more offline.
Then UMvC3 probably isn't worth it. I haven't played much CSII on my 360 so I can't comment on the offline content of BB. On the other hand, the offline content for UMvC3 is pretty weak. You get an arcade mode with no story and a different mode where you can change the game up via special cards you collect. Regardless, both have you just fighting against the AI and it'd probably get boring fast.

I prefer BlazBlue and indeed am picking it up tonight with my Vita. It's got a ton more single player content than UMvC and I really dig the soundtrack. UMvC is a great game but feels like less of a deal for $40. Either way you really can't go wrong and would be getting a quality experience.
That's what I was suspecting. The original BlazBlue has a full blown story mode and I read this has one too (and includes prior story modes?), whereas UMvC3 is pretty barebones for single player stuff. If this BlazBlue includes prior story modes then this version's even more valuable.
It almost helps there's that PSN discount, but givent he size of the game I think $5 to NOT hog up a ton of stick space is worth it, even on a 32 GB. At least Uncharted is a "play through and dispose" kind of game.

Haha, a waste of money and a waste of space. The tech demo that keeps on giving.
My PS3 died a year ago, I've been 360 only since. It was this or a PS3, and I spend more than enough time in front of the TV already. I'm looking forward to having options.
Though I'll probably pick up a PS3 again for The Last of Us.
rayman and lumines are both discounted.
When games are > 3GB, 32 (only 29 useable) seems so small.
On another note, does anyone know how to turn off friend sign on notifications? It's really starting to annoy me... a lot. And I think my Vita is bugged. When someone signs on, the notification thingy at the top right goes blue and shows a number. It used to be when I tapped it, the number would go away and it would turn grey again. Now the number never goes away and the icon stays blue. I've checked both my downloads and notifications and there's nothing new there. Just people signing on...

Awesome, thanks guys, BlazBlue it is
Yup, I'm grabbing this as well over UMvC3. I'm hoping there's some online community to be had, though.
It's a kids mini game collection. Why so harsh?
It's not like reviews have called it complete garbage either. Eurogamer was pretty positive in their article.

Every multiplayer first party game has an online pass activation code.
Sorry to quote myself, but really hoping to see if someone has this answer, cuz I wanna buy GEB. I couldn't justify it when it was $40, but it dropped down to $20 today.

I believe it is compatible.

Woah, $20? I hope it works because I've been wanting to grab this as well!

Anybody try using both a US and Japanese PSN account on the same US Vita yet?

Some Rayman pix. Game looks stunning, obviously. No time to play much til later - I should be working!

Vita users, are the social apps up?
Vita in the house!
Thing feels great, I'm about 5 chapters into Uncharted and it was as natural as playing on the PS3. I think my headshot rate is actually a little better because of gyro aiming. Buttons/dpad are nice and clicky, though the face buttons could be a little bigger. Thumbsticks are perfect, the whole thing feels very high class.

It should be a pack in or free download. At best $1.
I played it at Best Buy and it is garbage, at retail prices. As a pack in, I wouldn't care, I just feel sorry for anyone paying real money for it.

So as far as I've noticed so far:
10% = sony + ubisoft
No discount = everyone else
Hats off to ubisoft. Didn't think I'd say that with this launch.

After Stardust it DOES seem the best policy is to wait until you can actually play it before buying. At least then if any surprises come along you already got to play it some anyway.
Updated that.
Yeah, that's why I think Vita is ultimately going to be a retail-first system. Also, this is just the launch lineup. We'll probably see lots of games over 6GB, and maybe a few over 10. With games like Mass Effect 2 and Dead Space 2 spilling into multiple dual-layer DVDs, it wouldn't be shocking.
Sony really should've gone with a standard storage format. SDXC or MicroSD would make digital-only possible. You can get 64GB SDXC for well under $100.
The only things listed in the Apps section are the PS Protection Plans.
Really! I don't want to double dip..... and also did U.S. get the DLC?

Opinions, opinions. It's a great pick up and play game for kiddies and girlfriends.
wow. it looks identical to the console version.Some Rayman pix. Game looks stunning, obviously. No time to play much til later - I should be working!
It'll be even more glorious without the compression and on the beautiful screen.
The shots still look good though.
I think it really depends on the game. Lumines is acceptable at 700-some MB, and games like Rayman Origins are probably fine too. It's these 3 GB games where it's a problem, Uncharted is probably best as trade-in fodder if you're inclined to do that, and BlazBlue is worth keeping around and so you might not want that much space taken up, especially if you have an 8 GB card and hell, I wouldn't want that on a 16 GB card.

Pissed doesn't even begin to cover how pissed I would be.
I know that doesn't make sense, but I'm sticking with it.

Any chance in finding a good grip attachment at a retail store, or is it going to be 3-5 weeks?

I understand completely.

Looks awesome.
Game was 930mb and $35.99 by the way. Not sure how that compares to retail.
I saw this while browsing GameStop today:

My local store had only two of them on display, so check your store if you are interested.
But I want to see more 3GB games
. I'm hoping to play an Elder Scrolls on this thing some day. I'm totally excited for the PSN games like Stardust and Escape Plan, but they're not the main event in my opinion. You don't need a 5" OLED to play those games.
