Yeah, I played it.
Imagine it with the online patch that was added.
Me too. It was quite fun. And graphically impressive

Not sure if there was a definite confirmation or not, but from the DJ Max facebook page:
We know the Korea version is coming out in June so looks like we won't have to wait TOO long for the NA version.

I'm pretty sure those digital copies are DRMed but I don't know if they can work on Vita or not.
I downloaded it as soon as I got my Vitawarning: do not check out the japanese demo of ragnarok odyssey. you are better off not knowing what you're missing. i know i was
game really needs to get localized. yesterday. would've made for an amazing launch game...
Another TIP: Don't download Lord Of Apocalypse & Tales Of Innocence demos :[

If only it is possible to buy content from the Japanese store and play it on a UK/US account and still earn trophies.

IIRC, Playstation Lifestyle was banned in 2008 for making up news in order to get hits.

Man Sega is so pathetic.
SE , Atlus, Namco seem to capitilise on PSV release and got their PSP games updated and drop prices to realistic levels.
Sega doesn't do anything and VC2 is still for 25 eur
I want to double dip for it but fuck not at this price.

I think they're being optimistic if they're taking this quote on the blog:
"Looking at the tail end of the month at the moment"
... and assuming it's coming today because it's the last store update of the month. Hope I'm wrong though.
Wow. There is a PS VITA game on the amazon top 100 selling games! After launch I think I've only seen Uncharted on there briefly, not counting buy 2 get 1 free sales. The game? Gravity Rush of course At #94. (The VITA WiFi seems to hover around #25 - 30 or so and has been for weeks. Pretty good sign.)
At #94. (The VITA WiFi seems to hover around #25 - 30 or so and has been for weeks. Pretty good sign.)Most (all?) games don't allow you to play "proper" online using the 3G connection - it's locked to the WiFi only. I've tethered the Vita to my iPhone though and it was pretty good (I get an excellent signal where I tried it though). A lot of the games are using asynchronous multiplayer (ghosts, leaderboards and the like).
The data transfers from PSN are locked to 20Mbps (which I get around by tethering when I need it).
That would be in line with what the PAL Blog guy said a few weeks ago. He said something about "end of the month".
edit: They don't have any additional information. It's just the last update this month and because the PAL guy said "end of the month" they assume it'll be out today/tomorrow.

Monster Hunter Freedom Unite with dual analog and online play has renewed my love for Vita. The game actually has playable controls now
I really want to play that game, but I'm holding off (being hopeful) and waiting for a new MH game.
I haven't played MH since the original on PS2... I need to play the newer ones.
Doesn't sound like it's on the cards based on the extra detail in this report:
http://www.theverge.com/gaming/2012/4/24/2969841/skype-almost-turns-the-vita-into-a-phone-today
However that article does answer a lingering question I had:
Which is good.

i have 3 dollars in skype credit. will try if it actually works. knowing them it wont work.
Question is, though, will the Skype app running in the background keep the connection alive?

but... how do we insure that the wifi/3g stays on? Last I checked, hitting the sleep button turns those off unless you have near randomly connect for data location.
Dunno, haven't tested since the last update, which IIRC kept a connection open when you put it to sleep if you were downloading something. So maybe same thing here, if you have skype open, it'll leave the connection on when you put it to sleep.
It's only 20 bucks mang!

I've tried the download thing a couple of times, blue light stays on until download is done. Then it goes into "deep sleep" mode.
Except when you play one of those games that disable your network connection... like Sony's biggest game for the system does.

Last night I was playing Vita on bed while talking with a friend that was playing on 360
We used Skype on our android phone
Eh? WipEout doesn't disable the network.

Last I checked Uncharted was their biggest retail seller. Could have changed by now.
No, they're not. They're small failures in a long list of small failures that add up to the perception that Sony has good ideas but continues to fail to execute them properly.
If that makes me a hater, fine. I'd consider myself to be a customer that sees what other companies can do and continues to be disappointed that Sony struggles to deliver the same quality.
It's probably a given that people will have different priorities, but moaning about little stuff that will probably eventually be addressed by firmware updates seems silly to me when there are big things that are missing from the competition.
Here are some big things that Sony got right: OLED screen, dual analog sticks, no region lock, SDK that's available to hobbyists.

Oh man, dual analog sticks with with that? I wanted to love that game so much but I couldn't get over the nub analog and button camera on the PSP.
I may have to give it another shot.
Has Sony said they'll patch this out? If so, that's a great thing.
I agree on the hardware side of things. The Vita is absolutely amazing. I'lll disagree with the no region lock because they only allow one account and seeing how SCEE constantly messes up release dates (constant delays) I'm not really happy about not being able to have two accounts on the system. Sony gets the hardware right but they just lack on the software side of things and they need to hire some people that know what they're doing and especially people who say "stop" when a feature is there but not at least as good as what the competition is offering.
I hope they'll iron out the problems but ignoring that problems exist or saying they're insignificant doesn't get us anywhere.
Yep. Map right stick to dpad and you have the definitive MH in the US
You're not one of those "why isn't the Vita a full-fledged cell phone" people, are you?
Who is the competition and what features are you talking about?

The way the programmed the vertical camera direction thingie (aka those jumps) just killed it for me :<

I'm coming from left field to ask is the only way to get Puzzle Quest through the ps3? I have tried looking on the store on the vita and can't find it anywhere. Treasures of montezuma just makes me want to play the superior game lol.
That's what I was told. I haven't tried it yet because all my time is taken up by TitS.

Don't make me Google what TitS is. I am sure work won't like the results.
Nope, I already have a cell phone. My main problem is that it pretty much always goes like this:
Great Sony idea! There's a catch.
So they advertise a screenshot functionality. The catch? Devs can just disable it for absolutely no reason that would make sense.
They advertise a cross-game-chat feature. The catch? It can be disabled to supposedly save battery. Then why not give me an option?
Our handheld will have a webbrowser. The catch? It's absolutely horrible.
Our handheld will feature Trophies. The catch? Your PS3 doesn't know about Vita.
Just to mention a few things.
Edit: I'm comparing Sony to Microsoft, Apple and Nintendo. These are the major players (outside of PC gaming) and they're the companies Sony is competing with.
So scratching my head here a bit. Anyone else with a 3G version have this happen?
I have hardly used my 3G at all .. just to sync trophies from time to time and check out friends. No downloads at all.. only done via WIFI.
Today I get a message on my phone saying I have 1% (or 30min of talk time) of my data plan left.
No way have I used 250mb this month.. is there any app or game that stays connected or is there a way to see a history of where my data went? I can not seem to find this on the supplied link to the website or on my vita.
Any input would be welcomed.

Your plan expires when either you use all your data OR you hit the 30 day limit, whichever comes first. I've found that even trying to use up 250MB is damn near impossible.
