My brother just reminded me that you can remote play with a ps3 over the Internet. Totally forgot that remote play could do that. I guess it would be an interesting way to play psone games in the meantime.

Anyone else waiting for Zen Pinball 2? I thought it was supposed to be out this month.
Also, I've been spending so much time in this thread that I have not been following many other Gaf threads. I have no idea about upcoming console games. I've still been using the PS3 but I haven't been following the upcoming release schedule like I used to since getting the Vita. Guess I'm just overloaded with games to play. I think the only preorder I have is for Ni no Kuni and that isn't out here until next year.
How are y'all managing your gaming time between the Vita and your console gaming?

Since I can buy from PSstore ( YAY) I just ordered 16GB mc from amazon. (I will just download PSP games and Minis, buy boxed Vita releases)Now I got two minis Where is my Heart,Pix'n Love Rush and Gravity Rus DLCs, will think about bigger sized games PSP games when my 16GB arrive.
First Sonic Racing was pretty good,so if Sumo Digital don't go all stupid here then it will most likely be a good racing game.

I think the Vita is pretty much guaranteed continued Sega support. It's a cheap porting ground for them to help subsidize the cost of development on PS3/360 even if sales aren't great. The narrower retail focus means that we could see semi consistent Vita support of the games they are releasing, and the increased digital focus means that a Vita version of a lot of their digital material is a no brainer (I hope).
Unfortunately no games support remote play because Sony is dumb and didn't mandate it. Well, I lied, Lair does.
I'd buy the Steam version. Some of the stages look a bit small on the Vita's screen, and the glyphs don't add anything.

Yeah, I felt that things were a bit too small in the demo, but I figured the colors might make the Vita version the more attractive option. It's too bad that Ubi is allergic to really good sales (i.e. 75% discount) :\

Steam. Vita version doesn't really add anything worth noting and the PC version has, I believe, local co-op.
Being able to pop bubbles with the touch screen is fun.
Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed coming out November 20. Buy!
Holy shit! DAY ONE.
Persona 2's certainly longer. I think Rayman has a better chance of going on sale again than the PSN version of Persona 2 does, as well.

Persona 3 Portable instead and save 5 bucks? =p
Rayman. But I can't play platformers like Rayman on keyboard, so I'd get that on Vita instead. *shrugs*
Actually I think Atlus has a 50% off sale every year (at least the last 2/3 years) so not really.

What are you, two?Being able to pop bubbles with the touch screen is fun.
I didn't play much of it on Vita so I wouldn't know much.
I wish people I knew had a Vtia so I could try it out. Haha!
;_;
Might as well go Persona 2 if you're debating it. Rayman will be lower on Steam around Christmas time or even before that.

I'm thinking the base price of Persona 2 is going to drop to $20 in the near future, but then probably so will Rayman's, lol.
Already have that, of course!
And I'd be playing with a PS3 controller. Wouldn't even attempt it with the keyboard.
to save $5 and get a shitty game?that a bad advice, everyone should avoid and keep their money away from P3P.Seriously.

Oh, didn't know this was an annual trend.
I don't have a comeback. You're so mean.
If you can't decide, then just spend your money on Steam gifts for me!
I think the lack of a Vita LBP Karting is a deliberate thing - we already have LBP Vita this year. I'm guessing Sony wants Karting and regular LBP in alternate years on Vita, with them the other way round on PS3 (2012: Karting PS3, LBP Vita; 2013: Karting Vita, LBP PS3 etc.) Like Nintendo with Mario and Mario Kart games on Wii and 3/DS.
Yeah I have hopes for the new Sonic Racing. The first one was a fun title and I'd love to play the new one on my Vita.

I can never decide. I was pretty indiscriminate during the Winter sale, so I'm trying to spare my wallet a repeat of that tragic time.
I'm holding off on this year's Steam sale, although the giant thread is making it hard to ignore.

Agreed
You two couldn't be more wrong. P3P is an excellent game. If you don't have a PS3 or PS2, there is no reason why anyone shouldn't buy for their PSP or Vita.
Koroviev

I have most of the games already, so it's not that tempting.
I've bought it for my PSP, PS3 and Vita :x
As somebody who bought a Dreamcast, Shenmue, and Skies of Arcadia a few months ago, I'm terrified of this happening any time soon.

Ooh, are you in post-game yet?
What, where do I sign up. I want a pimp too.
With sales to match!

It will only sell that much this FY according to Sony. As optimistic as they are, I say they'd hit 9 million. Give or take.

Not even close. I'm starting Chapter 4 but there were so many of my characters straggling behind that 1. didn't want to use them. and 2. didn't want to make any of the new ones I was unlocking.
Then I find out grinding is okay and the chapter missions change to reflect that, so I've been bombing the 2-1 cleric to bring my casters and new monsters up to par with Mao and the other main guy. And I finally gender-swap reincarnated my monk.

The five inch OLED that's too dark? The Vita is a great system, but it is a portable so of course it has compromises. You can't seriously think that the same game wouldn't be better experienced on a big screen with a powerfull computer, than on a hand cramping portable with a tiny screen.
I've had problems with the black levels seeming too high, but I didn't have that issue with Rayman.
Surprised to hear you complain about hand cramps though. I had some problems with the PSP, but I find the Vita comfortable enough.
I actually love playing portables. I'd rather play a handheld at home on the couch rather than on a PC or 46" HDTV. I don't know if it's nostalgia, the ability to focus more on what's right in front of me, the convenience of sleep mode, etc. but I love it. I know I'm a small, small minority though lol. I've played Rayman Origins on PS3 and on Vita and I'd take the Vita version any day.
Edit: I don't get hand cramps, but I can see how people with large hands might. I also find the screen quite bright. It's brighter than my phone, iPad, 3DS, etc.
I feel the same way Sheik, 42" few feet away from bed with ps3+pc...playing vita instead, always.
Except if you haven't bought it by now, how often will you play it on steam vs vita.. [Rayman Origins].
I'm also sega racing got a date...just to chip in, I'll buy it if it has most of the same stuff (which I fully expect) and if the framerate is a rock steady 30....+-2fps.

Normally I would say Vita, but if it's an arcade-type game like Wipeout, then it really doesn't matter.
I'm the same way, but I don't have an HDTV, which could be one of the reasons for my preference. I don't like sitting in front of the TV for extended periods, so I've always preferred portables, even though they don't leave my house. That'll be changing soon though.
