No you're probably right, I edited in when I realised it was next Thursday not Tuesday or Wednesday.

I feel the same way. Its a great game but I don't play multiplayer very much.
I'll probably wait for PS+ or a sale. Thinks like tearaway and the indie stuff is much more exciting to me.
Same here. I want to get into the series but since they are not native Vita games the price is a tad to high for me.

7 is good, but if you want a more classic Ys go with Oath in Felghana. Its a shame that the port of Ark of Napishim is so bad, it really fun also. It would be nice to get Origins, but I doubt that will happen.
Oath in Felghana.
Theyre all great though and you cant go wrong with any of them. The only potential problem I see is how old Ys1+2 are. Combat takes some getting used to.
Found this on the DC OT. It was already kind of awesome, but then I saw the squirrel at the top.
Official Vita thread mascot confirmed.
Also, false advertising about Cross-Play confirmed.
But in all seriousness this is pretty sweet. We need more art of video game characters playing their own games. Especially when it involves ridiculous anachronism.

So what is sweet fuse all about? Looks like a visual novel but I could be wrong. Should I be excited?
It's a visual novel for girls. Make it what you will.
i never played a Ys game, but i want a game with really good action combat where i can grind and stuff while watchig TV
what say you vitabros?

Haha I see. Will be skipping it then. I'll have plenty to play anyways with dragons crown, killzone and indies.
PJMonsters is taking all of my time as it is anyways.
Good man - did a couple of PJM levels last night. I'm still awesome.
So what's in the pipeline for Europe? We don't get no Dragon's Crown til October I think - all I wanted was Spelunky and Terraria but NOOOOOO.
Anyway - sold a Vita today with FIFA and that Lego Chima game. Good luck to the kid, he's one of us now!

the combat is way better in 7. multiple heroes to switch between. there's a friggin dash for god's sake
it's a no-contest, like i stated previously.
if you play oath of felghana, it's actually better on the PC cause they have that HD remix type thing going on

welp! there goes the neighborhood. I hope you educated that employee.
I beat his ass down. My store is pretty pro MS (which is fine) but there's also a significant level of ignorance towards Playstation products. My colleagues, to a man, know little to nothing about Vita, PS+ or anything that's happening inside the industry at the moment. They assume the 360 has outsold the PS3 worldwide by about 2:1 for example.
When I brought up the Wii U sales today I was met with "well I bet the Vita sold like shit too" - as if it's some sort of competition - and I'm almost sure the Vita would have outsold the Wii U over the same period.
Retail. Gaming. Srs bsns.

Speaking of Tumblr, can we get them working on a Tumblr app? It runs like total arse on the Vita's browser.
Also, Ten by Eight is awesome. I bought it based on the trailer.

Really depends on what exactly youre looking for.
Oath in Felghana has really fun, fast paced, nearly non stop combat,. All of your items (health, speed, etc) drop on the field so its just a constant stream of fighting. You will rarely pause the game unless you 1) have to change equips or 2) have to pee.
Theres also a jump button and some decent platforming elements throughout.
Theres not much of a grind either. Most of the time, youre going to be able to beat bosses at your current level. If gaining a level or two is necessary, the combat is fast enough and the enemies are plentiful so youre going to get those levels pretty quickly.
It takes maybe 6-7 hours to beat the game if you spend some time exploring and upgrading your magic.
Ys 7 is also fast paced but it does feel a tad slower than OiF to me. It tries to incorporate more of a story, which isnt a bad thing but that also slows the game down some. Also, you carry limited amounts of healing items with you too. To heal, you have to pause. It breaks the game up some but thats SUCH a minor complaint.
They ditch the jumping and platforming in favor of dash dodge. You just bolt around the world like a crazy person. Its a lot of fun.
Combat also has some tweaks. You have a party of characters with you, each one with their own strengths/weaknesses/elements so youll be mixing things up there. Characters never get in your way, never die on their own and the whole thing just works surprisingly well.
Like OiF, theres not much of a grind here either.
Lastly, it took me 17 hours to beat Ys 7. Its a much longer game with many more areas to see.
Both games are fantastic, though. If you have the money to spare, Id pick up both.

US doesn't do Vita preorders. Another great move by SCEA.
It is.
I was given the Ys I & II psp game for secret santa, I think -- I got a little ways in Ys I, but was haven't trouble getting into it -- I plan to go back someday, I hope, when I have more space on my card.
Cool. Make sure you post when you start playing. I always enjoy reading Ys impressions for some reason.
SOTN is a great game too.

olli olli is the game by Roll7.
not sure of their games status. it was in a nice playable form at E3 though.
edit: just emailed them
Sure. FFX/X-2 HD is 40 a pop. No crossbuy. Games sold seperately
Vita also got a port of GoW3!!! It was a awesome surprise at Gamescom, Never saw it coming. Tearaway got delayed again to 2014. Killzone was cancelled due to heavy beta issues, Sad to say.
There is good news though! Remote play on Vita/PS4 works absolutely perfect :/
loliiite i'll make a lttp thread when i get around to it.
sotn is amazing.

i'd trade killzone "beautiful and boring" merc and a year tearawho? delay for 100% perfect remote play.
Dunno. But you can submit the errors that you get automatically through the Vita. Hopefully they sort it out soon. That's what beta's are for!
lol I must have at least 30+ error reports by now

Do you have a source for this or are you just guessing?
So far the Vita pricing for FFX and FFX-2 has not been officially revealed. We also don't know from SE if there will or will not be Crossbuy (although it is not hard to guess there won't be). What we DO know is that the games will support cross-save, which is nice.
Me too!! The only thing I dislike about this game other than the crashing is the lack of weapon customization.
everything he said is a joke

New thread smell! Nice OT as usual.
We need more impressions of KZ beta!
And where the fuck is Terarria!?

lol I see. Perhaps I'm too edgy today. You know, with that garbage piece of news about Breath of Fire 6...
You're a top fellow.
it is as good as the number of crashes
