CRAZY UNFOUNDED STAB-IN-THE-DARK PREDICTION:

They're holding it to be released free for PS+


YOU READ IT HERE FIRST!!

This.....is possible. Nearly every Sega game on PSN has at some point been free or heavily discounted.

 

[Lonely1]

Weaker than an iPhone cpnfirmed!?

I know, right!? It totally makes sense. Kick off PS+ for Vita with a bang by giving out a "new release" title for free, even if it is just a $10 remake.

 

[Pai Pai Master]

I will wait for Vita release or PS+ sale, whichever comes first.

 

[Raytow]

Weaker than an iPhone cpnfirmed!?

So where is the iOS version, come on I'll wait...

 

[kitchenmotors]

They must have read the 6.5 review from Game Informer

Ouch.

I'm getting annoyed, this is the one of the few games I wanted to play on my Vita this fall. I guess I'll just get the PS3 or Xbox version.

 

[mrklaw]

Ha! I just bought it on Steam. Take that SEGA.

 

[Wario64]

Ha! I just bought it on Steam. Take that SEGA.

You sure showed them

 

[KTallguy]

Hurry the fuck up!

Alternatively:

Hurry up but please get it right

 

[dani_dc]

If we're talking NA users, it was actually supposed to come out today. So a few hours before release. :lol

They did the same with the PC version of NiGHTS "Here's the release of the game! Oh and PC gamers get to buy it in a few months!", I gave up on expecting Sega digital games to be released on time, at least then I won't be disappointed.

Ha! I just bought it on Steam. Take that SEGA.

Enjoy!

Spoiler

You'll still buy it on Vita in a few months for a handheld version!

 

[FantasticMrFoxdie]

Good, better late than lacking.

This.

Not like my backlog will be mad at me

 

[Sho_Nuff82]

Rollerblade Reasons.™

 

[Cipherr]

Perfect

 

[Drkirby]

I didn't even know they had a Vita version planned.

Oh man, that's not far fetched at all, but I'm not getting my hopes up.

 

[Kagari]

Hilarious. Especially since the platform they demoed the game on at their booth at E3 was Vita.

 

[joeygreco1985]

DO get your hopes up! Sony gave away Double Dragon Neon for free, they'll do it again!

 

[TheSeks]

LMAO. Well, at least it saves me some money this week. Street vs Juggle (and inflicting pain on myself) next week with AC3, eh Gents?

 

[Pie and Beans]

Oh for fucks sake. You ruin every shred of hype I ever feel for you these days Sega.

 

[vg260]

Hilarious. Especially since the platform they demoed the game on at their booth at E3 was Vita.

Did it run well?

 

[Vitacat]

Very unhappy about this delay. I've been anticipating today's release for months, ever since the date was announced. And now at the last minute, delayed again?!

Ok Sega, do your optimizations. But it had better be worth it, and NOT take more than a week or two. I'm still very interested in this game, being an old Dreamcast fan, but damn this delay hurts.

Furthermore, why couldn't they keep today's release date, and just release an optimization update later?

CRAZY UNFOUNDED STAB-IN-THE-DARK PREDICTION:

Hmm. Well, for $10 I'd rather just buy it today.

 

[KTallguy]

I'm guessing there were a few terrible, terrible A bugs that couldn't be fixed in time. If the framerate is fixed, then I think the wait is worth it!

 

[Black Republican]

amazing

 

[Borman]

Hopefully it is a legitimate delay. I can't buy your games and give you money if they never come out.

 

[Lambtron]

I fully expect the Android and iOS releases to quietly disappear, never to be heard of again.

I would be totally okay with this.

 

[flipswitch]

Typical.I've been waiting for the vita release for ages, even skipping the console/PC version for the vita and it gets delayed on the last day.

I'm speechless.

Fuck, now I'm anticipating this.

 

[Dereck]

I ain't even mad.

 

[Teknoman]

a Sega rep confirmed the delay, and stated that no new date has been confirmed, asking all interested gamers to keep an eye on the official Sega site for more updates.

 

[Jarmel]

Pretty shitty of them to announce a delay so close to launch.

 

[haikira]

Despite having already bought two copies of the digital release (PC & PS3), i'm still damn annoyed. I wanted my Jet Set on the go.

Confirm future and it's all good Sega.

BAM! Called this a month ago and now its true! Who wants next week's lottery numbers!?!?

 

[Lyte Edge]

I want to buy it though. Where is that option?

 

[Betta Lines]

This game appears to be very buggy despite the delays. It has forced me into the pause menu multiple times after loading a stage (rebooting the game seems to fix it each time), and it randomly crashes in the middle of a stage, prompting a 'do you wish to report this problem' screen. I have yet to run a session of JSR on Vita without one or both or these problems occurring.

Being a pretty stressful game at the best of times, this is infuriating.

I don't even know how it's possible to fuck this up.

Had the pause menu glitch happen to me. Thought my start button was stuck in the system at first.

I've only run into the constant pause issue once and I've completed the first four missions. Was infuriating though, just shutting and reopening it didn't work. Had to power off the vita and turn it back on to fix the issue(yes, had already done so to get the game to work in the first place) Otherwise It's worked well, Jet Set Radio Controls aside, and looks really nice. Still hard for me to play in general after Future.

Me too! It happened the very first time I loaded the game - went straight to the tutorial and BAM... YOU MUST PAUSE. A quick google said a reboot of the game fixes it, and sure enough it was fine after that. Next session, load a stage... BAM - YOU MUST PAUSE SOME MORE.

Hmmm. I'll try a full shutdown and see if that helps.

 

[Atolm]

Apparently the US version was released with a patch that fixes most problems, but the EU version doesn't feature it and Sega has no plans for a future release...at least that was someone close to the dev team told me.

I have not encountered anything like that outside of the very first launch. Finished the entire game with no issues. Ran better than the 360 port even.

Still, seems like it needs a patch. US version here.

 

[Betta Lines]

Perhaps you played it with the US patch that Atolm mentioned?


And yeah, it runs pretty nicely otherwise, seems like a cool game!

I had no problems with the EU version (PS+)
But I only played a couple of missions, I can't stand the controls ._.
