you can use remote play over the internet (sooo not just in the same house).I never understood why people are using remote play?
It's not to dish on any of you, but I just done get it.
If the PS3 is in the same house, then why stream it to ones PS Vita?
If somebody else are using the one television in the household, then surely one can wait?

I don't know where to post this. I hope someone with knowledge can answer here.
What's stopping Sony from enabling Remote Play on all PS3/PSN games ?

I never owned a PSP.
Will games like Peace Walker and Crisis Core be available day one via PSN? Is there a way to browse the PSN from a co puter, to check out the catalogue and prices?

Peacewalker yes Crisis core no. (crisis core i believe is one of like 2 games not available on psn, the other big one is Kingdom hearts BBS)
There are videos of it working fine.
GAF, I'm still trying to decide between the WiFi Model & the 3G, I know the 3G Launch Bundle is good, but I could still just get a WiFi Model & 8GB Card for $280 instead, saving myself $20. I'm just not convinced that 3G would be very useful, when I already have a phone for multimedia functions. Of course, there's Vita functions like "Near", but I am really going to pay a $15/$30 a month fee just to get some free items in a game? And I highly doubt game developers will use the 3G functionality to give gamers using it a significant advantage or lockout essential features. Plus, I typically never really meet anyone that has handheld game systems and if I do it's a DS/3DS (which I'm also considering buying instead).
That's precisely what people have been saying all along. There haven't exactly been a lot of favorable impressions.As much as people like to rant and rave about little deviants, it's pretty much tech gimmickery fodder, the same kind that everybody knocked on the Wii and Kinect for.

I personally decided to opt out of the 3G launch bundle, it just doesn't seem worth it for my wants/needs. The free game plus 8GB memory card sounded nice, but when I started diving into the terms, it isn't much of a deal for those who might have upgraded to the 3G only because of the bundle.
The first bundle "deal" is a free month of AT&T DataConnect. You have to sign up and pay for a month first before getting the free month during your second month of service, so that's at least $15 right there. If you decided to get the $30 3GB service, your free month is limited to 250MB anyway, so that's a huge loss.
The second bundle "deal" is a free game. You only get this if you sign up for a DataConnect plan, and you can only redeem the game 30 days after signing up.
What it all boils down to is that if you have no want or need for the 3G model, then you're not saving any money over just buying the wi-fi system, the 8GB memory card, and a game, since signing up for the required data plan for at least a month will cost you $315 overall. The only plus is that you now have a 3G model if you ever decided to keep the data plan or use it in the future. If you were wanting a 3G model anyway, then this bundle is fantastic and is saving you a lot of money.
Also, this is all assuming there is no limitation on what type of game you'll be able to choose. If they limit it to certain low-priced games or non-popular games, it becomes less of a deal.
Yeah. I played Monster Hunter on it and still prefer the CLAW.
I was on the same train of thought as you at first, but if in the future 3g becomes useful for some features then I will be covered if I just spend the extra $50 and get the 3g version now.
Thats what I'm thinking as well, you never know what might happen in the next 5 years or whatever so better safe than sorry.

Coming from someone who wasn't initially going to buy the 3G model (or even considered it), I am excited for it. The way I see it, I'm paying $25 extra for two months of 3G service, and the thought that if I wanted 3G in the future, I can have it. It just feels like, to me, it would be dumb not to do (unless you absolutely KNOW you'll never use 3G, which personally seems kind of premature).

many of us have phones that the vita can tether to, so we won't be missing out
If one was just going to use the memory card for game saves, what size should I get?
I will be buying the games physically

Incorrect, you'll still be missing out on GPS. And you'll have a phone with a flat battery
Motorstorm RC looks amazing. Any news on price and release date?
USA launch day?launch day and 15 I believe

99.9% of phones that can tether have GPS capabilities. They also have multiple GPS options, of which the Vita only has one.

What are you going to do on it? Download a mini? Tweet your high scores?
If you're interested in 3G capabilities, I'd suggest putting that $50 towards a new smartphone. I think a lot of people want the 3G model because it's the most pricey, but aren't aware of how limiting the 3G actually is. No online play is pretty killer IMO.
As it stands, wifi tethering is $10 for most phone plans, which is cheaper than the cheapest [250MB!] Vita plan. The caps are 4-6GB higher than the current Vita plans.
how exactly would gps be used in a game? i'm quite certain it's just for the map/fb/twitter/etc. apps that everyone has on their smartphone. the wifi still has gps, it's just a shittier version through skyhook.Incorrect, you'll still be missing out on GPS.

i have no idea! i'm in canada, sorry!Does Verizon offer that feature? I'd love to be able to do that with my phone.
Launch day. Probably $10 or $15.

Can't wait, checked it out in Best Buy and loved it. I have not been this excited for a hardware launch since the Dreamcast and PS2. Getting Vita WiFi, 8GB card, Uncharted, Dynasty Warriors, and Lumines (even though I thing the track list stinks lol)
Well, I think I will jump on the train. The PC-Vita future is almost complete.

I have a smartphone. I never knew it could do tethering, though. But, I could watch Netflix (the Vita screen is way nicer than my phone's screen), take advantage of the Unit 13 challenges and 3G features, near looks interesting; things like that. Haven't really researched what 3G features games are offering.
That doesn't magically give your Vita GPS though.
is it PSn only? Do we know what size it is?
