Nikoli no Puzzle V: Slither Link is releasing today on Vita.
I saw the DS version got a 10 from Eurogamer.

Reason to be excited?

I will cry like a bitch if we don't get this on the EU store. I loved the DS version and I really want this.

Any chance there will be a sale on Square Enix titles this week? They are having their own summer sale in their online webstore and I'd love to pick up Tactics Ogre for 10 dollars.

The other day I posted that the Developers of Starbound were gauging the potential interest in porting Starbound to ps3/ps4/Vita.

I just noticed this on twitter from their lead developer:

"Just getting back from a nice meeting at sony"

Vita version hopefully!

Awesome news, the primary request in that thread was for Vita. So hopefully they worked something out.
 
It does? Huh, I can't recall having any issues at all with the game outside of the controls of the one gyro hacking-minigame, which is sixaxis controlled on DS3 anyway so it's the same shit.

Same here. I don't recall heavy frame rate issues but the loading was a real pain in the rear though.

I don't remember what world it was in, but there was a section with Sly where you had to glide and use geysers to keep you up high enough. There was also some sort of collectible (sly mask?) on one of the sides of the canyon wall.

Between the slow as molasses framerate, the limited draw distance, and trying to get the sly mask, I was about to throw my Vita. I sync'ed save to cloud and put it on PS3 where it has a stable framerate and better draw distance and was done on the first try.

That's the spot I remember it being infuriatingly and unplayably bad.

Probably not.

$35 on my wallet. What to buy? I have my eye on MGS Trilogy, but maybe I should wait for a PS+ discount?

I really want Soul Sacrifice, but I don't want to pay full price on it just yet.

man Real Boxing looks like pure garbage

Its REAL boxing but huge puffs of blood mist shoot out of nowhere when you hit their face?

is that a forced gyro mechanic when clinching?

jesus christ no thanks
 
The weekly sales are posted already? Or lack there of.
Yep. Persona sales are still there. Atlus PSP games are gone though. Their is a new PS3 bundle for Journey and Unfinished Swan along with a couple of PS3 PSN games. There is nothing new for VITA in term of sales this week.

Just finished muramasa, what an awesome game... so gorgeous on dat oled. Buy this game people... im now starting monohime story
 
i downloaded it, but so far, I'm not impressed. besides the story being cute, i think the game play is a little too generic for me

Same. Was able to put about 20 min on it so far, but nothing about it screamed play me more. I'm going to put some more time in, but tbh as of now, I'm not entirely looking forward to it. We shall see.

Edit: talking about Dokuro, since it's not named specifically in the quote or post.

you're a jaded dude with very specific tastes. (much like me. :p)

dokuro is a solid puzzle platformer, for sure. you just need to get far enough to have several of the mechanics tossed in and for the difficulty to ramp up.

So I know we haven't even hit Gamescom, but it's unlikely to come with any JP games. So does anyone have an early wishlist for TGS?

Personally I'd like to see
- Dangan Ronpa 3
- The Shinjeki no Kyojin game confirmed to be on Vita in some form
- Some Persona related announcement, if 5 isn't going to be on Vita, perhaps 3 AGAIN
- Some announcement from Squeenix

This would make me very happy.

There is a Attack on Titan game for VITA? :eek:

Can you please share the link to any footage/screens?

Vitamuffin GAF: Anything, please give me some games! *sobs uncontrollably*

Seriously though, Puppeteer coming to Vita would be great. Something like Dragons Dogma would be fantastic as well (by which I mean it plays like it, rather than it's a part of the world but similar in no other way).

I'd love to see what Japan can do on the indie front as well. We're spoilt for choice on western indies.

...Hows Sly Cooper (vita) btw? I've been on the fence on that one since it came out

I love it. But I'm so swamped in games that I haven't put more than a a few hours into it. I'm a huge Sly fan, though. Sanzaru did a great job, and I dare say it may be better than Sucker Punch's sequels. Looks fantastic on the Vita screen.

I'm also one of the few gaffers that doesn't have any problems with the Jak collection. I think it looks and plays fine, and isn't a trainwreck like Ratchet: FFA (although, oddly enough, the second planet in FFA doesn't have the same disgusting performance issues as the first planet).

I enjoyed Stranger's Wrath, but something about it kept giving me a headache when I tried to play it, so I uninstalled it. I was enjoying the style of it, though.

Well, there is one game that will have similar mechanics but in completely different settings

Vitabros with more than one memory card:

What kind of storage do you have for multiple cards?
I've got an extra 8 and 4 card, in the PDP Pull and Go Case. Tho....I never really use them. The 8 is my JP account, and thats a pain to switch. The 4 is extra for something I haven't needed yet...maybe a full vita game that's close to 4gb. I have an extra 4 laying around somewhere too, still in its package. I picked up several when I saw them at BB for 7 amurican buckaroos.

Just started stage 4 in Dokuro. I am liking it a little more, tho there are still some frustrations. Be it my old school blood, but I prefer to use a Dpad for all 2d games side scroller games. I've seen some real wonky hit detection too. Buuut it was free, so with no money invested, I feel I can't complain too much. I do prefer the transformation on the shoulder button though, so much easier. And you know, reliant.

Get fucking real. The last people you should rail against are Vita owners that actually buy software. They're the ones keeping the platform above water.

I wouldn't call it 'disgusting', but just because we are in dire need of games doesn't mean that developers can push a 15 dollars tag to a game like LIMBO to us nilly willy. It's just too bloody expensive for what it is.

Well, my opinion.

Anyways, need.... more...... RPGs........ I don't want to get stuck playing just PS1/PSP RPGs on my Vita Sony.... :(

Well couple of things to consider with the whole Phil Phish thing.

First, do you know who Andy Kaufman is? If you do thats something to consider around Phils sudden outburst, he seems to be a fan , so it would not surprise me at all if most of this was a stunt. Its gotten him allot of attention thats for sure.

Second he said Fez 2 was "cancelled", if Fez was planned to come to playstation I would assume he signed some sort of contract/deal with Sony which may not be easy to break. I have no idea how that stuff works though.

I will be very surprised if Phish is really gone.

Yeah I wasn't trying to give my opinion on the topic, just responding to what breakfuss was talking about.

I hope it dose come to the vita sooner rather than later. Even if it is something I probably wont buy, more games are always welcomed.

I really hope Noogy brings Dust:AET to the Vita.. .that game is beautiful
(and Supergiant should port Bastion too)

Has anyone asked him about dust? I dont know when Dust came out on 360 so he may be still under an exusivity contract with MS, but I dont know if anyone has even asked. I would love it personally.

Im not going to expect anything, but I would not br surprised if Bastion ends up on playstation. It would be great if we could get both Bastion, and Transistor on Vita. Really love Supergiants games.

I asked him on twitter a couple of times.. no response on that (as much as I can remember)

That Phil Fish plantpot probably wouldn't be doing the port anyway would he?

I'm sure he wouldn't say no to another studio doing the 'porting'...
 
so, then, no fez for vita. should have bought it last steam sale. :(

The ports are still happening.
