Cheers fella - just on the SEN website somewhere?
Still the best portable soccer game. I wouldn't buy it yearly but if you don't already have a copy it's a great purchase.
Do I need to deactivate my ps3 as well?
Edit
It's telling me I can only deactivate a Vita on the machine itself - that can't be the only way.
Edit 2
You were right in the first place. The problem is I have a few PS3s registered to my account (back in the game sharing days) so I'll need to work out which one is actually mine.

Can't you deactivate them all, and then just manually reactivate your own PS3? (I might be wrong about this).
We're about to find out fella!
Edit
Yeah that seems to have worked! Thanks one and all
Everything seems ok. No bugs yet of any kind (that I haven't encountered that is)
If you played FIFA 12 or FIFA 13.....then that should give you an idea.
Honestly, this all wouldn't be happening if KONAMI RELEASED PES ON THE VITA.
I need my soccer fix, and for the time being it's FIFA or bust on the Vita.

A new spend $50, get $10?
Seems like I should have waited on Dragon's Crown... oh well.
Now I have nothing to buy to get to $50, except maybe Rayman if the patch goes live during the promo... maybe KZ:M digital, I guess? Lone Survivor.

The Sofmap and Amazon CDs, the Niiyan Narikiri CD, and the magazine with the Premium Stage CD were part of an order of used items from Surugaya (through a proxy remailer). (The DLC codes were already used by the previous owners; I was just getting the CDs.)Congrats!It looks like you have both Sofmap's and Amazon Japan's drama CDs. Where did you get them from?
The PSP accessory set in the back (which also has a CD) was in the order with the game itself from Neowing/CDJapan.
It's kind of a long story as to why I got these particular CDs in advance for a game I hadn't even played yet, but basically it saved me hypothetical future money by consolidating orders...assuming I end up liking the game enough to be glad I got them.

Just compiled a list of Compatible Vita games one could buy during this October Promo:
Either get it while the promo is up or you can wait for a sale, the Invasion sTAGEs update is free.
This excludes PSX games, and a bunch of other PSP games, gonna make a list of them soon.

Lone Survivor and reupping Plus will net me 10 at least, might have to "legitimize" a reason to spend another 37 or so...
A good portable Fifa (or even PES) was one of the main reasons for my Vita purchase.
In the end EA didn't really deliver. Game may be the best portable football game but missing out on Tactical Defending already hurted the first game.
So I only bought Fifa 13 at a discounted price in the end. They should at least release the updated rosters as DLC instead of only as a new game release. This would appease me to a certain degree and I would even buy it.
Well, Germany has a better promotion. We just need to add 50 to our wallet through Paypal to get 10, not even need to buy stuff.
Once again, EU>NA
Seriously, buy Rayman: Legends. Batman will be available before the end of the promotion. Some indies should also come out soon. Curve said Proteus is coming out next month and other games like Luftrausers were teased a long time ago.

(1) Calling Divekick deep has me laughing.
(2) I refuse to buy Rayman until it's patched, period. The game is not complete without the patch and I will not support them by buying an incomplete game.
It's a shame that I don't need more PS+. I'm good to 12/2015... so no hurry to extend it.

how can dive kick be any more shallow compared to EVERY other fighting game on the vita?
Marvel?
SFxT?
you have to be joking, right?

It is its own kind of deep!

Oh yes, quite the amazing list too! Nice work! And what, ya too lazy to make each game an indiviudal link to the respective PSN store!?
I feel that soon enough I will be in the same boat as you...but I don't really see any of my PS stuff going away...but still...I guess I don't need to set my subs up 2+ years in advance..

i wouldn't fault you (much) for playing it
if smash and playstation all-stars are considered fighting games, I most certainly wouldn't consider dive kick a fighting game

Today 6PM at Stout NYC bar near Madison Square Garden/34th Street Penn Station. West 33rd St. between 6th and 7th Ave.
It seems a good bit of VitaGAF is actually Vita-EUROPE-GAF. Don't worry fellas. I'll be in London sooner than later
Two people fight against each other, it's a fighting game.

it depends on which definition you use i suppose

Heh yeah it would've also exceed the allowed character limit for a post as well XP.
cHECK out this CAG thread for some compatible PSP games on Vita:
http://www.cheapassgamer.com/topic/281768-complete-list-of-pspminispsone-games-playable-on-vita/
well I can't blame anyone who bought it as it's the only option for football on Vita.
Also PES 14 do not seems hot, impressions from many neutral guys in the OT tells it have tons of issues and not an improvement over the old games (A.I. issues, PSone era AI for goal keeper, CPU cheat, slowdown, shitty online, bad UI, funky ball mechanic) so sadly FIFA even if a re skin still a better option.
it's not for everyone.

The English language definition.
double dragon, streets of rage, castle crashers
GTA V
yea, pretty much everything.
i guess COD even if you're doing a knife fight.
sounds right, right?
These games have a fighting element to them, sure, but to call them 'a fighting game' it'd have to be the main element. Just like GTA V isn't called 'a shooter' despite having a lot of shooting involved.

alright, but then we back-track to my previous post saying what definition of a fighting game you use
LuchaShaq said:
i've played it, and while I don't particularly care for smash or PSABR (which I own) i can't imagine anyone thinks divekick is a better game
having played dive kick, i'd recommend a real fighting game to people and would let them take their pick
Two great games.

Here's my stance on this whole thing:
I feel like if I want to talk about a game such as Street Fighter, Mortal Kombat, or Tekken I would refer to the game as an "Arcade Fighter" or maybe simply a "Fighter", I wouldn't call it a 'fighting game' even though that is what it is.
DiveKick is a thing of its own, and really started out with the intention of being a parody of the "Arcade Fighter" so I wouldn't recommend that either if someone asked.
PSASBR I think of as being in its own genre, also. I would maybe call this a "brawler" but If I were to describe the game to some I don't know I would just simply say that it was like Smash Bros.
If someone asked me which fighters were good on the Vita, I would think SFxT, MK, DOA but DiveKick and PSASBR would probably not cross my mind.
Just my 2 cents.
Double Dragon, Streets of Rage, etc is a Beat 'em Up. No one should call that a fighting game. You aren't fighting, you're beating the shit out of anyone you see.

Personally, I agree with you.
I don't consider Smash Bros. a fighter.
I don't really like the idea of Sony Smash as a fighter, but it's closer to what I consider a fighter than Smash Bros. is.
Divekick? I don't even know what to say about that one...
To me a fighting game needs to have a bunch of things, such as a combo system, cancellable moves, special moves, and in most cases, metered specials.
But that's me. It all depends on your definition of what you consider a fighter.
Lone Survivor is already up on the US Store. Here's a link to the Vita version.
https://store.sonyentertainmentnetw...vita/cid=UP4395-PCSE00301_00-LONESURVIVORDCUT
I'm downloading it and it is 205 MB, but the page says 397 MB, odd.
Can't wait until tonight to play it in complete darkness.

i agree with both Corrosivefrost and Dorimukyasuto, but again, that's why I mentioned differing definitions of the term "fighting game" and why I thought that one response was a troll post.

Growing up on FG's, this is how I see it -
1 v 1 = Fighting game, no ifs ands or buts.
2+ players at a time = a brawler. Smash Bros, PSABR, Power Stone, last gen Naruto.
Now, this gen Naruto games, and DBZ also fall into the brawler category I feel. Though, I have seen some amazing(ly boring juggling) DBZ combo videos.
Fighting games being 1v1, where it takes more than just knowing the right moves to win. Frame data, linkers, etc.

Well, one could argue that Divekick has at least these two.
Could have played more of Divekick for sure but because of the overall games onslaught, I haven't. I still like it and can recommend it.

let us all agree that everyone has a slightly different definition of what a fighting game is, and isn't
and that dive kick, while having similar mechanics to some fighting games, is not a fighting game

You could try. But I mostly likely wouldn't accept that argument.
Divekick is played with 2 buttons, that's it, right. No movement, no anything, just jump with button 1 and kick at the right height, correct?
Divekick looks like a fighting game, plays like one and is defined by its developers as a fighting game, so I can assure you there was no troll post on my part. You do seem to not have the slightest bit of respect for that game though for some reason, but whatever.

That's not correct. You can use those two buttons to move and other things.
