U-S-A! U-S-A! U-S-A!
Get Sonic 2, Generations and Racing Transformed. Sonic 1 is included in Generations so don't bother with that.
What's this $30 Tales of Hearts R season pass that is showing up on the store? Can't find any info about it at all besides the crappy store description, and that description certainly doesn't seem like $30 worth of stuff. Is it just access to all the other tons of cosmetic DLC stuff and gald and whatnot?
Freedom = $1.05

those sonic PSP games weren;t very good, right? I feel like i tried one of them out back in the day and wasn't too impressed with it

I never played them but they look pretty crappy. Sonic 1 and 2 on Mega Drive Collection are the Sonic games to play on PSP.

I thought I was the only one who is playing this great game!
Don't buy Narco Terror even when cheap. Terrible game that had a bug so I couldn't even finish.
The only good game in the sales, that is really cheap, is Sonic Transformed that might be one of the best Kart racers ever. Dead Island is OK but it gets boring after 3 or 4 hours.

Sonic Transformed is THE best kart racer ever. And I say that as a massive CTR fanboy.

Isnt the generations port piss poor though?
Just played one of the worst games on the Vita for quite a while, The Hungry Horde.
There is so much wrong with this game, I couldn't even bare to finish the first level. It starts with one of the worst tutorials ever. The tooltips are shown way too short and there placing doesn't make any sense. Oh, you are showing me how to sprint (though I couldn't read it), do I need to sprint smash this first door? No, I actually don't, you just show you useless shit to confuse me but hey, how about I figure out the right way while you keep the camera super close.
After all, that is all there is. Finding the right way, or more correctly, memorizing the right way or else you won't make it. The 2 mini games I played were uninspiring and the camera controls bad when splitting the horde.
Probably the worst thing about this game is though, that Sony publishes it, which means they probably put some money into it.
If I had to say something good about it, then the game seemed to have no technical issues in the short time I played it.
3/10
Not big fan of the Sonic kart racers. Don't like the style and don't get why people are hyping it up so much.

Interesting. Both you and Omega are talking about issues in empty rooms. I... just can't see this. I've also shown my wife, who isn't much of a gamer, but didn't see anything 'off' about the display even after describing what she should be looking for. Isaac and bullets both look fluid and consistent.
I'm still curious -- are you guys on the newer vita? I'm on OLED. It's one of the only things I can come up with as to why some would see such a significant issue while others don't.
I think we'll see classics on PS4 within 3-6 months.
Adding to your list, TxK, Zen and/or Pinball Arcade, and Super Stardust Delta are all great 1 more time games.

I'm on OLED. I wonder if it only shows up at certain walk speeds or something. I was playing Eve. I'll fiddle with it later to see how consistent it is, but at the moment I prefer the feel of Vita remoteplaying the PS4 to Vita native unfortunately.
They both suck.

I didn't find it that bad but I wouldn't recommend anybody paying for it. It was an interesting concept. You had to play it for a while to understand a lot of it because the tutorial was terrible.
Certainly not as bad as this:
Get Off My Lawn - Vita
This free to play game isn't worth the download for even a second. It was 530MB of who knows what because there isn't much to this game. It is basically a vertical shooter that despite using only left and right into 6 slots controls terribly. Has the typical Vita Unity engine bloat and loading but there isn't anything here that it could possibly be doing. It is so boring a 5 year old could do it for the first 15 minutes until it ramps up. None of the enemies were interesting or anything about this game was interesting. The game's graphics even look sad. Oh I wanted to see how much to buy stuff was and the store was broken. To think I erased good games to fit this crap on my 16GB stick and spent 20 minutes of my life playing this game. Seriously fuck this game.

Somehow I'm not surprised. Man, and they C&D'd that amazing looking 3D sonic fan game right around that time. Looked way cooler than Sonic 4.

The port of Sonic 1? Wouldn't know. I never touched it. It was just kind of there. I've played the game to death too many times to bother with he one in Generations.
I think what makes the Sonic racers so good is the fact that if you took out the items the game would still be great. The items complement the experience, they don't define it. In a lot of ways it's more of a traditional arcade racer than a kart racer. You'll either like that or you wont. I think that mechanically it blows all other kart racers out of the water. Amazing sense of speed, the best drifting and boosting system, best trick system and offers the best variety of gameplay. The track design is also leagues ahead I think, and if you're a Sega fan then there's tons of fanservice too. It offers a FAR superior single player experience as well. That's something Mario Kart is always horrible at. I feel MK is more of a party game but not fun at all solo. The items are probably less exciting at first glance but they're more balanced and as I sai they complement the experience instead of defining it.

too snowy out to take a nice, sunny picture:
also, I would have preferred a physical Vita version of course, but I pre-ordered my first PS4 game:
65MB on a bluray for lulz... maybe I can get a PS4 soon too, eh?

Wow! Terraria is up for PS4. Anyone know what is in this "Limited Time Bundle"? Also is the added content just from the PC version or did they make new original content like in the original console releases?
PDF 2nd comes out next week.
Someone explain to me why the download is out of 38GB when the total size is 44GB pls
Compression. Its like this on PC (steam etc) too.
Basically they compress to lower filesize so you can download less. Than when it installs, it is uncompressing.
That's pretty cool. I thought it was maybe several GBs worth of patches or something, but I thought it seemed like too much.

Get Sonic 1, 2 CD and generations. Sonic 4 isn't very good sadly.
CD plays totally different to the other Sonic games BTW.
My next paycheck comes out next month.
So you're getting it next month, right?

Season pass DLC is $15 too I think.
But of course, I wouldn't miss it. I might wait to get it as a gift for christmas, though.
just saw a Season Pass thingum for Tales of Hearts R as well - what is this T_T

So in case anyone was wondering like me, here are the details on this version of Terraria via Terraria.org;
The description on the store also states this version is "HD". So it may look better, probably more zoomed out so it looks sharper.

get Nano Assault Neo-X folks!
one of the best games on the WiiU now on PS4
What makes it so good?
Seraphis Cain
bad gameplay lol
How is Sorcery Saga? Worth it for a fan of roguelikes? How is it compared to Shiren/Guided Fate Paradox/Izuna?

Finished Advanced Warfare's campaign and I must say, it was really enjoyable. Now to finish Freedom Wars, should be done with the campaign soon... Then I have Dragon Age on the PS4 next week, and the week after, Persona Q on the 3DS. Pretty good schedule. I don't think I will be buying anything else this year on any of my consoles. These 2 will for sure have me busy for quite a while.
It's fun, but that's it. It's just a fun little game.
Some of the content is locked behind dlc. 30 bucks for everything i believe. But that is fair.
