I don't know man. They already announced white Vita in Japan. There'd be PSOne stuff coming this year. PSMobile going to v0.99 soon (still not v1.0 yet).
If I were them, I'd save everything for TGS. An intermediate event is not going to change things either way. Wait for the games to be ready for that event.
You probably didn't wait long enough.It didn't work
Although I haven't played UGA yet, I second this. Gyro-assisted aiming is a beautiful thing; it saves Grav Rush's controls in my opinion.
Since playing OoT 3D last year, I knew this would be something big. As long as devs don't try to lean too heavily on it, as it works best when supplementing regular controls. I thought Twin-Gun mode in SSD was a nightmare because it forced you to rely 100% on gyro. That's the wrong way to do it.

Doesn't work.
All I see is
Where is my Retro City Rampage? ;_;
That gif. =(
Imagine if the 3DS only people got a hold of such power...

lol. GAF be ridiculous.
Man, I'm tempted to get at least one thing off the Atlus sale while it's up this month. Just dunno what to get. Was thinking about Class of Heroes or Crimson Gem Saga. Was thinking about Persona 2, but I already have Persona 4 to look forward to and I wouldn't wanna burnt out on that. lol

Totally agree. And omg I'm so glad I got that Twin Gun trophy, I'm never touching that mode again! XD

P3P is the only way to go if you haven't played it before.
They're pretty different. Persona 4 has a major focus on social systems and a ridiculous saturated story with absurd, generic characters whereas Persona 2 has a focus on the battle system and demon negotiating and a ridiculous, boring story with characters that are so unbelievable that you're apathetic to them. It's your choice!
I'm kidding. They are fairly different though, so you probably won't be burned out on Persona if you decide to play 2 while you wait for 4.
Most people love it. And you edited! I don't think that people are advising that you get 3 instead, just that you get them both.

kenka bancho: badass rumble is easily the best thing out of all those games imo (outside of P3P but that's still a somewhat compromised port).
3D river city ransom. Think highschool Yakuza, with customizable moves of each hit of a combo (sorta like god hand). It ain't perfect, but it is quite unique, and quite fun.
I know , I'm terrible, I always edit. I definitely got that people want me to buy 3 and I know it is pretty taboo to recommend not getting a new vita persona title but if you had to only play one (because you aren't a huge fan and are generally super impatient but are willing to take a chance on one due to huge popularity here) which would you guys choose?
I think he/she was saying instead of P2 get P3P if you are waiting for 4 because they are more similar.
4 is fantastic.

Why would you have to choose? P3P now, P4G in October.
I'm going to have to disagree, unless you're open to multiple playthroughs. There's simply not much to do in the game. There aren't many events or minigames to take up your time, so the entire game is spent running around a fairly large, empty city. There's nothing particularly impressive about the game's locations either, and I found the battle system awful, and battles only became fun once I was fairly leveled up and literally at the end of my first playthrough.
If you want a game that'll take a decent amount of time to finish, then I suppose I'd recommend Kenka Bancho. My playthrough was such a chore though that I didn't feel like restarting the game to defeat the other banchos. It is worth noting that you can run around with a green mohawk, so the game certainly gets a shred of my respect.
Haha, I would love to give them my cash and potential memory space to everyone's decent recommendation but it isn't my sort of game these days, so taking a chance with the series and trying to press you guys for some brutal honesty..
tempted to just wait for p4 and skip p3 especially now that I've missed the sale as well
some reassurance of p4s slight edge would be good..If you can only buy one, make it 4, as the game's coming completely uncompromised and it's the one that people prefer anyway.

Well, I don't see how you can go wrong for $10. And if you end up liking it, then you can get P4.
Drop the 10 bucks for P3P to see if you like it, if you do, then you'll love P4.

P3P is still $9.99. Amazing game.

Oh, you're not in the US, my bad :x
In that case, you should probably wait for another sale on P3P or simply get P4.
Just wait for Persona 4. $38 is too much for any PSP game at this point. Of course, I'm of the opinion that if you're going to buy one PSP Persona game, it should be the first.
This was one of the appeals of Persona 3 for me too. When I learned it wasn't in Persona 4, I was weirdly disappointed.

Most definitely. I wonder what some publishers are smoking.

I've played some of Persona 3 FES (I own it, but I had a problem with my 60gb PS3 where I ended up losing all my saves, so I hadn't gotten back to it). I also own Persona 4 and the same thing happened to it. I loved what I played of both. But when I heard they were getting portable ports with some additions, I thought I might as well wait. I like the characters in Persona 4 more from what I played. But I def wanna play through all of Persona 3, too.
Question, though...does P3P also have The Answer part or did they not include that?

I don't believe it's included.

i'm sure most have honestly forgotten that they even have a presence on the psp psn store.
Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if this were the case. I'd like to think that most publishers aren't consciously keeping their prices at $30.
The $23 Parappa price will always ruin me.

MMmmm I think I might just play the PS2 version of that. Persona 2 might be the better choice mostly because I can't play it on PS2 or PS3. That and It'll go back to like $29.99 after the month is up?
Class of Heroes looked interesting. Though it seems like it doesn't have much of a story.
Persona 3 FES is a PS2 Classic, so you could try that version if you're having save issues.

Yeah. I think I'll do that. Really hope they get that PSOne support going. I have a lot of PSOne games, both bought and free through PS+. Yay for getting a Vita to play old stuff!
But man, I'm on the last chapter of Corpse Party and I'm pretty sure I'm close to finishing it. I mean, I wanna get all the extra chapters and beat those too, but it kinda sucks it's about over. They did a really good job gripping me in that game. Playing it exclusively at night in the dark with headphones on really immersed me in it. Was like the ghosts/characters were speaking right into my ears (I know I was wear'n headphones but I mean it was REALLY like they were next to me). At first, I was kinda regretting my $19.99 purchase, but I can definitely say it was well worth it. I really hope they get the sequel over here, though I watched a few vids of it and it seems kinda different. Though I could hope it'd still grab me the same way.

I would hope so. 3DS has an ongoing thread :<
Not a three-part thread though! We're clearly more popular.
Koroviev

We have been told we are allowed.
I feel like we should make these threads mirror the Divine Comedy and make the next thread Purgatory and the final thread Paradise. I can't wait for the Vita's ascension into Heaven. GAF is going to turn into the Left Behind series.They have to do it to make us feel better since Vita is going to Heaven!
Awesome.

lol what the hell? What is this from? Why would they have a guy dropping a Vita? I know it looks like he's in awe of something, but yeah.

THIS! Well, actually, I just go to college...and I'm not even doing that again til the 20th of August. And having a hard time finding a part-time job. So I have time, just I'm too busy worried about making progress on that to play games just whenever. I'm always thinking about what I need to be doing. =l
Vita
Keeping it relevant!
Yo, you guys like baseball games on Vita? Well, too bad cause we've got the third one coming out this year right for you:
Powapro Professional Baseball 2012 Promo Video Thing
Powapro Professional Baseball 2012 Promo Video Thing #2
Powapro Professional Baseball 2012 Promo Video Thing
Powapro Professional Baseball 2012 Promo Video Thing #2
Can you actually swing your Vita to swing the bat? That's kind of cool. I mean, it's stupid and a terrible way to play a game, but it's cool nonetheless.
