This looks amazing, watching videos on my lunch break at work. Why am I tempted to order a PS4 because of this! How could I explain it to my fiancée!!

Give her/him/it a controller and let the game explain it for you :]
Say it's an investment, but leave out the part where the investment is to spend more money.

Good job on the OT!
I am definitely picking this up later today. Would like to play with some GAFers.

Here is a tube Vid of a guy playing the Vita version solo. Most people say when you get in multiplayer games there are framerate issues as a forewarning, and this does not address that. None the less worth watching before you drop the money if you are Vita only.

Hmm, darn.
how about two local, two online? I only have two controllers locally.
and it is decent to play single player?
My thoughts are the same. I have a PS3 so part of me wants to get it with Cross buy and use the Vita some and try to take the TV when I can. I LOVE Starship Troopers, I love the idea of this game, but unless I see a vid of someone playing with 3 other people that stays pretty smooth I just don't know yet.
Well :-/

So what's the skinny regarding the PS3 version? Any articles out there that compare the multiplayer performance, overall graphical differences and so forth? It'll be a while before I pick up a PlayStation 4 and I'm on the fence on picking up the port (in large part thanks to Cross Buy) if it turns to be a competent one.
So from what I've gathered, it's cross-buy, cross-save, cross-chat, cross-play, 1-4 players, online or local multiplayer (including mixture of online and local players in same game/lobby), and matchmaking.
That certainly warrants the price point to me. Will be picking it up considering games with that kind of architecture don't come around often.

Well, 2 definitely seems no worse than 1. That is encouraging.

yes and yes, though some reviewers complained that the single player got grindy towards the higher levels

Because it's awesome!
I love these kind of games and Arrowhead is awesome.
Which is the reason why I'm supporting the hell out of it
More like a SciFi Shmup.
A bit like Dead Nation or the upcoming Alienation.

Still not on the store for sale.
Thanks to a massive screwup on Sony's part, I have $60 in my wallet to spend on games. This looks like a nice way to drop $20 of it.

Oh baby hope we get 20% discount for every spring fever game in europe
There have been mixed reports regarding 4 player Vita action. Some have reported single digit frame drops, while others have had theirs around the 20s, but still very much playable.

When does this damn store update! Was able to get the hype train going on at least two other friends. Can't wait to try this game out tonight. Co-op games ftw.
The 20% discount is cool but why the hell is the normal price 21? isn't it 20$?

When the store updates at 25:00 GCT (Grace Chen Time).
Probably around 2PM-5PM EST.

Agreed. It's not often that a game has Cross-Everything. My only concern is that I'll be playing solo pretty often or with randoms. I might think about pulling the trigger on this if I can party up with GAF.

You can party up with randoms as well. I think for a full team you could potentially have two local, one from friend list, and then one random.
No UK price?
Although US price is pretty good, I wouldn't get the 10% discount as I don't have PS+ on my US account. So 20% off a UK price of around £15 would be good

Am I just missing it or is it not up on the PSN store yet?
Not up yet for some insane reason, there was some comment in the blog about it being 6pm est, which sucks. I'd love to pre load it.
Nope. It'll be up soon as the store updates.

Oh well, I was hoping to get home and play it right away, I guess not.
edit: oh wait! https://store.sonyentertainmentnetw...LLDIVERSSCEA00?smcid=ps:nav-playstation-store
Doesn't have the PS+ discount yet, tho.
