Support NeoGAF

[Uno Venova]

I hope Uncharted GA has cheats like Uncharted 3 didn't have.

 

[rollingstart]

I really just want some PSP games on Vita impressions

 

[Reluctant-Hero]

So hyped that Mingol scored 38/40. Looking forward to reading JGAF's impressions of the game. I pray for the deepest character customization options yet. Or at least on par with the PSP titles...

 

[Carl]

Some brilliant scores for those games ;D

Too bad for little deviants.. Where's wipeout?

 

[Dead Prince]

Too bad for little deviants.. Where's wipeout?

wiped out.

 

[DiscoJer]

Even in the land of the Rising Sun, Gameloft is still utter garbage.

Still higher than those deserved. I mean, for $5-15 those games are okay, but aren't they retail titles?

 

[djplaeskool]

the PSP version got 9 9 8 8... so.... ?

I'm going to go with "Too much PSP, not enough Vita." Seems like a uninspired port.

Anyways, not surprised with the titles at the top.
MNG6 is going to sell like crazy.

 

[Shai-Tan]

what is this "True Night of the Kamaitachi"? youtube trailer confused me

 

[AndrewDean84xX]

Out of the large launch line-up for the Vita, how many are bound to flop? Will people buy more than 2-3 games at launch, knowing that the Vita is at a premium price, plus the additional cost of a mandatory memory stick? I just don't see large software sales outside of maybe 2-4 Vita games: Hot Shots Golf, Uncharted, Disgaea 3 and Dynasty Warriors.

Smaller check this time.

 

[Troidal]

It's the revision/remake of the classic digital novel game on Super Famicom/Super NES. I think it's on other platforms now too.

 

[cultureculture]

Visual novel series (often known as "Kamaitachi no Yoru"). Series started on the SNES, I believe.

 

[DangerousDave]

But you said that Famitsu was already leaked and that there were no info...

Any possibility for any JGaffer to write the final comments of the reviews?

 

[tait269]

Anyone know if the Japanese PSN store going to be online at launch this Saturday and will full games (eg Uncharted) be available for download?

 

[NateDrake]

Good for Uncharted. Overall a solid lineup from the review scores.

 

[Takao]

Too bad for little deviants.. Where's wipeout?

WipEout's in January in Japan.

But you said that Famitsu was already leaked and that there were no info...

I meant news. If there was any game announcements, those would leak prior to review scores.

 

[Globox_82]

Where is escape plan?

 

[MRORANGE]

Where is escape plan?

TBA if I recall.

 

[Bomber Bob]

Yeah but dark quest is like 2,400 yen witch is cheaper than cheap

 

[Carl]

Where is escape plan?

US/EU launch isn't it?

 

[NateDrake]

Where is escape plan?

US launch.

 

[mujun]

Too bad for little deviants.. Where's wipeout?

Wipeout doesn't release till January.

 

[x3sphere]

Too bad for little deviants.. Where's wipeout?

Wipeout isn't out till mid January I think?

Beaten...

Maybe people buy 1 or 2 games day one, and a few more a month later? There's bound to be a lull after the early launch excitement. I wouldn't be surprised to see a few of these games (Unit 13, Resistance) get bumped to Q3/4.

 

[DangerousDave]

More or less I expected the score of Katamari, but I'm worried about the scores of Shinobido 2.

 

[Takao]

I don't think Spike would be a big advertiser of Famitsu.

 

[mujun]

I'm trying to will myself to pick up a Vita but the launch lineup is so boring to me.

 

[BadWolf]

Wonder what they found bad with Shinobido 2, it looked like a must buy to me after that last vid we got.

 

[bigdaddygamebot]

I'm trying to will myself to pick up a Vita but the launch lineup is so boring to me.

All they had to do was secure an updated Patapon or Monster Hunter and I'd have been in.

This line up is just so...

...maybe...eventually someone will get it right and launch a new console with a must-have title.

 

[Amir0x]

haha famitsu as a guide for how solid anything is

tee hee

anyway DCharlie said he heard there wasn't any Vita scores in the latest issue, so you should wait a second in case these are fake scores from the worthless Famitsu magazine, this way you can celebrate empty scores legitimately.

 

[dreamfall]

Famitsu scores
Minna no Golf 6 - 10 9 10 9

This is indeed the game I'm most excited about!

Basically, I needed a PSV port of one of the numerous PS3 games I've had my eye on and I would have gone for it.

the scores look complete jank, none of the usual sources have posted scores and Famitsu doesn't usually take "for the platform" considerations into effect so i'm calling fake.

Might as well get something else wrong, i'm on a roll!

 

[Leona Lewis]

I've never seen such a wide gap in scores for the same game on different platforms. I call "poorly researched fake"

 

[Jinfash]

Might as well get something else wrong, i'm on a roll!

What else did you get wrong recently?

 

[spwolf]

if you want to go get the machine with the early birds, yes, you have to get in the line with the FILTHY UNPREPARED MASSES who didn't bother to preorder.

so when do the pre-orders get it?

 

[Hasemo]

Going to pick mine in about an hour, will report.

As for the LoA Vita score, screw them. Guess there are too little vita-exclusive features to get a better review, but the game itself was highly praised in the last issue.

 

[Takao]

DCCharlie predicted a Monster Hunter TriG total that would make BurntPork's Nintendoom outlooks blush.

No launch will ever have a game that every single person in the world will want. The Vita has one of the best launch lineups ever. If you don't like it then it's your problem.

He's been buying a bunch of PSP games off of PSN if Google tells me anything. I think Google is trying to tell me this Over My Dead Body Portable. A perfect fit for the christening of your brand new PlayStation Vita!

I know how I'm going to christen mine...and this is just the foreplay.

 

[AgentChris]

Can't wait to play Hot Shots 6. Can't believe SCE didn't make another for PS3.

Edit - Typo lol

 

[Dead Prince]

Can't wait to play Hot Shits 6. Can't believe SCE didn't make another for PS3.

Sounds like a good porn title.

Sounds like a good porn title.

Sounds like it has Move support.

glad the vita has gyro built in. he can tape it to his schlong and jerk off at the same time D:

Famitsu scores are fake.

you took this too far man

too far

 

[alphaNoid]

I kind of want a Vita, but to be honest.. no way I am going to be an early adopter. I'll pick up on in like a year or two, if a smart phone hasn't surpassed it by then. But, I love me some tactile feedback so boo to touch screen.
