So, who here is going all digital?
Me. I don't see the point of having all those empty blue plastic shells, or switching cartridges between games. So old fashioned.
Of course I would lose resale value, but I'll just have to decide carefully for what I'd buy.

So, who here is going all digital?
I am considering it. It's 40EUR at retail with a chance to sell back vs. 35USD in PS Store. Plus with my limited time I won't be able to play a lot of games anyway. As long as new games will be 34.99$ on PSN I'm tempted to buy all of them digitally.
I used to have a 900+ collection of games. It came to the point where it was just entire rows of shelves that were gathering dust.. you end up becoming so worried about scratching/damaging your 'valued' games, that you don't even respond to the urge to 'play a bit of Radiant Silvergun'.
I ended up selling around 880 of those. It was a very liberating experience, although in my case I prefer to live light so I can travel easily. I'm sure it's completely different if you own your own house and have a wife and family.
PS. Start by selling some of your most loved, rare games. It's the most painful, but after that you will care less about the 70% of your games that are more common.
So, who here is going all digital?
Me. I went almost all digital on my PSP and considering the situation with the Vita, am more than happy with that decision. I'd be annoyed at myself right now if I hadn't gone that route, and there's nothing to say it won't happen again for a potential 3rd Sony portable (
assuming Sony aren't dead by then... j/k

I was interested in all-digital, but as long as the game cards have shorter loading times, I'm not willing to give up that and the ability to resell my games. It's really trivial to transport games that are so small.
Does Sony own the Demons Soul IP, if so why don't they release Demons Soul 2 for Vita. That could be a huge exclusive they can push. It makes sense to do this as From Software recently released Dark Souls on PS3 so PS3 doesn't need the IP as From Software has the PS3 covered.

But who will develop it? Without From Software, it'll be like the non-ND Crash Bandicoots - sad shells of the IP's former glory.
SCEJ is just useless this gen
I'm amazed that Sony could just let SCEJ sink into the state it's in when they are all about building 1st party IP. I know it's all about western style games nowadays, which would explain the massive expansion and investment of SCEA and SCEE, but letting one third of you development house sink doesn't seem wise at all.

The Vita is just a few months old, so it can be a bit early to announce something like this.

Count me in! If only Sony made a digital only Vita just like Go... I really liked the "sliding" design.

Gravity Daze says otherwise.
He said 'generation', so Forbidden Siren: New Translation also says otherwise.
Useless is too harsh. Mismanaged and undermanned perhaps would be closer to the truth. They did assist with the original Demon's Souls and I believe they are at least partly responsible for Phyre Engine which has helped alot of Japanese devs who were struggling with the generational leap so I will give credit where credit is due.
Shuhei Yoshida recently affirmed that Sony still has a good relationship with From Software (it was in the Game Informer article where he talked about Demon's Souls) and that Sony still owns the IP for Demon's Souls. I don't know if it's likely that we will ever see another Demon's Souls game but I wouldn't count it out either.

The thought of a Dark Souls on Vita is my biggest secret boner. I loved my first hours of it on 360, but because of the nature of the game, the best environment to practice infinite patience is on board an aircraft rather than at home where I have a hundred other things to do when I get frustrated. Love/hate, I know.

Anyone in here with a Vita also have Michael Jackson The Experience HD (preferably NA copy, but JP is more likely)?
Got a specific question.

And yet golden abyss turned out just fine?
While it's not guaranteed an outside developer will botch it, I do think Demon's Souls comes off as one of those more unique, harder to imitate games. A somewhat cinematic shooter about exploring ruins and shooting some people seems easier to handle than a carefully balanced dungeon crawler designed in such a way to be engaging/rewarding to explore and hard to get lost in despite the lack of proper maps.

Demon's Souls is not a series of cliches you can simply check boxes for. Even Gameloft could make a competent Uncharted if they wanted to.
The way I see it is this - if you can't get From to develop it, then you're better off letting that heretofore under-utilized SCEJ team work on a new IP rather than trying to recreate someone else's magic. More Gravity Dazes, fewer second-rate spinoffs = a chance for the system to find its own identity.
Yea I got this on jp and it's a actually good dance game touch mechanics work very well.

for people like me who have no problem with enhanched port or hd remake, vita lineup is nuts.
I know I want ZoE, MGS and FF X Vita port, Persona 4 Golden is also a must buy for me. and there's a lot of interesting downloadable games like Motorstorm RC, and Escape Plan and Sound Shapes and I'm also really hyped for Gravity Daze.
if some of the jrpg like Zero no Kiseki, Tales of Innocence, Lord of Apocalypse or Raganarok get localized, yeah more stuff I'm interested. this is before E3 announcement.
Little King's Story will be released on March 29th in Japan. A European release has also been confirmed.

Touch, gyro and AR controls would be a perfect fit IMO.
I'd even buy it in an episodic form...
FIFA Asia version is printed and made in Japan!

I think it doesn't mean much.
Right, but In my experience they are usually too much conservative with release dates, meaning they would rather not publish a release date until the last month/week.
Gamefly has LittleBigPlanet Karting listed for the PS Vita.
