Does anyone know which shop was selling the Vita early in NYC?
It was a store in Brooklyn, but they stopped once the Internet started calling them non-stop.

Army Corps of Hell for PS Vita: A Taste of Multiplayer

I can't even tell if they're trolling at this point with that shit. Ad-Hoc does not count as multiplayer. Sorry Sony.

No online for Army Corps? Does Square or Sony not want this game to sell or something?
Putty Squad is no longer a launch title.
I'd like to buy an Hori Screen Protector.
Do you suggest me to go fo the glossy (red) or matte (blue) one?
Red (Glossy)

anyone know if gamestops have em in early?
when does the US/EU PSN store update compared to the Vita launch date? Will they do a one-off update to put the Vita games up?
I'm slightly concerned by the lack of early edition pack for Europe. All of my PSP/PSone content is under my UK account so I'll have to switch to using that on my Vita. But I want to be able to start enjoying the PSP games (and Vita) ASAP - will it update a week earlier for US?
To everyone who pre-ordered on Amazon.fr, do you get the pre-order kit as a bonus? The site is so vague about that.
I know they have the accessories already on sell hence why I'm getting it today
My local GameStops have the starter kit in stock, and the 4GB memory card. The salesman said they should be getting their first shipment of games today or tomorrow, and will go ahead and put them on the shelf, and allow preorders to be picked up.
Asked about the system possibly being available early, and he was told by their DM that they are under strong advisement by Sony to not release the system early.
State?
The site says you do but my order doesn't contain it. I had an order on Amazon.de and the Pre-order box was separate but cancelled that because it worked out more expensive than the French order. I assume it'll just come with the Vita Console.
Our office just got 3 of these things.
Just got done playing WipEout, Uncharted and Gravity Daze.
Apart from Gravity, which is actually awesome, "embarassing" is what best describes this console.
If I have the time I will probably elaborate further, but let's just say that PlayStation 1-era fire in a Sub-HD game to begin with is unacceptable.

I must admit that I'm quite pleased Sony avoided using a Pentile matrix for the display. I was actually a tad concerned that they would go this route as it makes economical sense but the draw-backs are too severe and have a pretty significant impact on image quality.
I'm kind of surprised people put up with this type of display, to be honest. It looks awful.

WHAT?
Care to elaborate a bit more?
Not only on the final statement, but also on Gravity...
Thanks!
Hey,
I've both of them and from my point of view I would pick the green one over blue anytime because it's supposed to be a combination of glossy and a bit more resistant to fingerprints. I wouldn't want to sacrifice screen quality over less fingerprints. Only downside from what I heard, they're harder to put on compared to red/blue.
Personally can't decide between red and green but I'm leaning more towards to the red hori protector because it seems to be at least noticeable.
Netflix, Hulu, Spotify, ... all of these services need to go to Vita. Sony should have made that happen from the beginning.
Netflix is working towards launching the app on day one in the U.S which is February 22 according to Hirai.
I remember him from the Heavy Rain thread if I recall. Hes always very very heavy on the hyperbole.
Sorry man, but it's true!

I think he's saying that Uncharted looks worse than this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=-zg81cuHBE8#t=27s
Saying that bad looking fire (I'm assuming you're referring to Uncharted) is such a huge issue that above any other criticism that's what you single out...Don't be surprised if you get a backlash to your opinion.
I've only recently heard this mentioned a lot in smartphone threads etc. whats so bad about it?
I have the red one and
1) it's not noticeable at all
2) no loss in screen quality

Yes they did, in game informer.
Also, not that i expect you to believe me, but I have a few friends at sony... ps2 emulation is coming.

Please don't hold back, elaborate on your impressions.
because heavy rain resembled a "game" that was good in any way, shape or form? If anything, you should probably take a good hard look at yourself if you thought it was.
(props on that PJM avatar, though, I adore that game)
As in embarassing, no, the hardware is not embarassing. The hardware itself is an amazingly well built and polished piece of kit that should probably leave you drooling all the way until the white one comes out, which is going to look even more amazing, no complaints there.
The innards are obviously impressive, and I mean, we are speaking about the launch line-up here.
Gravity Daze, albeit fairly short on the demo side, already shows that if developers actually realize what platform they are developing for, will probably make amazing games for this thing. The mechanics work really well, the graphics are well suited and stylish. I really enjoyed it. I can't wait to try out the full version?
Wipeout 2048? I don't really like it. It feels sluggish, (the default controls, which thankfully can be changed, are a joke [no L/R-airbrakes by default), the tracks feel far too busy and the 30fps really shows.
Uncharted mad me fairly mad. I was a huge fan of Uncharted 1 and 2 but GA is just a sluggish, ugly mess. I mean keep in mind I only played the demo, but everything about it felt very lacking compared to what you're used to from the ND games... part of it might be due to franchise fatigue on my part, since I already thought UC3 was one too many game sticking to the existing formula.
I also found the sub-hd graphics to be fairly distracting and well, the fire effects are REALLY bad. Also, the input lag feels horrendous, but that might be due to the stiff buttons?
The OS is pretty damn awful looking but generally feels very responsive. The multitasking actually looks pretty cool and is fairly intuitive.
I don't wanna rain on anyone's parade but I really didn't like it. I hope those of you that are looking forward to it will get more out of it.
I am not holding back, it's just that I have work to do -- I did spend 1 hour of it playing around with the VITA -- but I felt I would do GAF a disservice if I left a vitriol filled statement without a follow up.
