I hit top 3 on the leaderboards in one of the Men's Room levels with 16k. You can cheese most of the early levels by just sending people to pee and having them stand there for the rest of the level, and at sinks.

(note: I purposely quit as I was getting tired of playing, so hitting #1 is very feasible let alone easy at the moment)

Magnetic By Nature could come to PS Vita.

Here it is his project on Kickstarter.

I send them this mail:

"Is there a PS Vita in mind? It would be a perfect fit..."

They answered:

"We would love to have a PS Vita Version. Unfortunately, Playstation is very silent about how much their full dev kit costs. We are planning on getting the mobile dev kit, (which they released for free this summer), but we are pretty sure that this lower end dev kit won't run our game properly, (not powerful enough). We are definitely looking into it though, and will notify our backers if it becomes a possibility. You are right, the Vita is the perfect platform for our game".

So, I contact Shahid via Twitter and he said:

"My email is shahid_ahmad@scee.net, happy to hear from you and help if I can."

So... after some days, the Studio finally answer:

"Thanks very much @shahidkamal and @MaLTRaiN! Email sent! We'd absolute love to be on a Sony handheld of some variety".

So... let's hope this finish right.

Thanks maltrain! Looks good, will get this if it does end up coming. Love platformers and the game + magnets seem cool enough. It's not coming to iOS yet so it gives me hope there will be a decent challenge, from their faq:

Android or iOS? said:
We are interested in bringing MBN to as many platforms as possible, but we want to make sure the experience is fluid, fun, and feels like it belongs. An Android version might be possible on a device like the Ouya or GameStick, but a phone or tablet release requires an overhaul of the mechanics, visuals, and controls. We are looking into this possibility; our backers will be the first to know about future developments.

Is Men's Room worth getting? I watched BlueMaxima's video and felt weird about the theme of the game being about toilets XD Am I the only one who thought that? Not sure if I can feel comfortable about it.

Not just you, I feel the same way. Given the graphic nature of the game and the scatological content it contains, I'm revolted by it frankly. On later levels I've seen that patrons can get diarrhea, and they cause an awful mess as a means of increasing the difficulty of the game. Remember that part in the South Park World of Warcraft episode where Cartman's mom holds up a pan while he sprays shit all over it? It's a lot like that. Really gruesome, juvenile stuff.

And they expect us to pay money for this sort of thing.

It's called humour. So it's a funny game instead of being boring.

Obviously that ain't everyone's type if humour (me included) but to moan and say oh they expect to pay for this?

Don't be so immature

played a little bit of passing time (psm football game by honeyslug). not enamoured by the matches but the challenge mode is pretty fun. the freekicks and corners especially do a nice job of capturing the fast pace of the real sport. feels really good when you put together a few passes then smack it in by moving your finger very fast.

To people who can laugh at this kind of humour (me, for instance) it seems more than fair to pay for this.

Another SCEE sale with no Vita presence. But then I guess the Vita doesn't have fighting games like the PS3's The Lord of the Rings War in the North, so it makes sense.
Click to expand...

You should tell that to SCEA so they stop giving them to us every month. ;) I tease, no, I don't think there's anything that is similar to War in the North which may or may not be a good thing.

Already finished it and enjoyed the hell out of it, thanks ! ;p

(well, technically, I still have the last stage of both Suzune & Daidouji to do, but I'm too lazy to level them up for now; I will probably reboot the game in some weeks to enter the dlc codes provided with the anime BD ^__^)

Hmm, maybe I was a bit too convincing.
Click to expand...

You meanie!

To further explain my thoughts, I'm probably just thinking too seriously about the game and imagining the act of going to the toiled. Even though the game looks cute, the spoiler they put on men's thing makes it a bit odd. They try to make a game out of it by increasing the challenge, thinking about hygiene and cleaning the toilets. It just seemes odd to make a game out of something like that and make it look all neutral and cute. Or maybe I just don't have that kind of sense of humour.

The price drop on Persona 4: Golden got me very interested. I was going to play Persona 3 first but at this price I'll probably just check it out.

I think I have been spoiled though, I'm not sure where I read this (probably clicked the wrong spoiler in the OT), but I assume this is a major spoiler?
The killer is the detective?

Vague-ish spoilers related to the spoiler, ahead.
While the murder mystery is the main backbone of the narrative, most of the story really comes from the relationships between characters. It's more about the journey, rather than the destination

that was guud, lol. had me convinced until i read your later post.

EDIT: After seeing the sh*tstorm the xbox juan reveal has caused, the vita brotherhood should take solace in knowing the hate isn't personal. GAF takes no prisoners.

So... E3 in a few weeks. I can't wait to see the games that Shahid has been hyping about
by Tin Giant and nStigate.

And then the LORD David Bowie saith to his Son, Jonny Depp: 'Go, and spread my image amongst the cosmos. For every living thing is in anguish and only the LIGHT shall give them reprieve.'
Man, PS Mobile had a better week than the regular store this time. That's cool, but also a little bit worrisome.

Been watching some YouTube vids for Ratchet Full Frontal Assault. Um, has anyone brought up how awful the framerate is?

Maybe the reason why it was pushed back and ultimately snuck out?

EDIT: lol, nvm, I'm catching up with the thread

This is partly why I wouldn't mind seeing them all on the front page instead of seperated...but then you have the bad ones that make that a bad idea.

Man, it's been a whole day now and the download for Pinball Arcade for PS+ members still doesn't work. Also, no one is responding to the cries for help on the PS blog.

Good (wo)man. Also have the DLC and blu-rays? You've got style.

Vitagaf peer pressure is so bad, just bought the overpriced Mens Room Mayhem. Hope it turns out well.

Thought Yu-Nama would be actually about dungeon building and not another match 3 game. Game is very hard, hoped that the more accessible PSM version included difficulty.

Enjoying the league matches in Passimg Time more than I should, especially after customizing my team and the players.
The challenges have big difficulty spikes. I am stuck on the last challenge of league 3 now, passing the ball without igniting it 30 times seems impossible. Hated the pass to everyone and score challenges because the AI is so stupid and their runs are useless.

You should have see this thread last year. Everything that was released was recommended. I've learned to check stuff and wait for user reviews on YouTube before pulling the trigger on anything.
