Don't know if this has been posted, but this is pretty cool.

Supposedly that's Left 4 Dead being streamed to Vita using Playstation Suite (Mobile). Even if it's fake, it gives the idea of how L4D would play on the device and I gotta say I'm pleased. I can imagine how awesome it would be if Valve ported L4D 1 and 2 to PS3/Vita with cross game play. Hell, Portal 2 with cross play would be amazing as well. Too bad Valve doesn't develop for portables.

Dammit I really should pick up Disgaea 3, but I'm actually scared that it'll devour my life. The last time I played a Disgaea game I ended up putting like 100 hours into it and I had barely scratched the surface at that point.

If I ever see it for $20, it's mine.

I got enough fans to get two of the levels on my quest to getting all trophies.
Got a third level by farming a level for them in less than 30 mins.
I'll probably do that for the rest of them but got tired of the game after finally getting the last Gold.

After a while they just stopped appearing for me, or really low occurrences. After a while I just gave up, hopefully they up the ratio after a break..
 
Does anybody know if FIFA 13 is coming to the vita? I know the current fifa game doesn't have a year designation per se, but I don't want to drop 40 bucks on the game only to find out that the newest version comes out in 2 months.

Last I saw it was scheduled for October on vita.
 
Bought Hot Shots Golf yesterday through a BestBuy price error. Fantastic game, even if you're not really into golf. Lots of fun, although sometimes it feels like cpu throws my ball into the bunker just for shits and giggles lol
 
25 mil in my first attempt at Arcade Pure in SSD. I'm going to go ahead and claim not too bad. I definitely lost the vast majority of lives on the bosses, simply trying to figure out how to kill them :X

Hopefully I can raise that to 50 mil tomorrow.

BTW, the third boss is an asshole

Does anyone else find it difficult to play their 3DS after having played the Vita? I have both of them docked on my nightstand and 90% of the time I grab the Vita and even when I grab the 3DS I often find myself saying "What am I doing" after like 10 minutes and put it back and grab the Vita.

Damn, I like Nintendo games too, I just wish I could play them on Vita-like hardware with a Vita-like infrastructure (all games digital with a unified Trophy system and no friend codes).

I had that at first when I just got a Vita and wasn't used to how advanced a hardware could be. I left the 3DS for a while but that's not the case anymore. The hardware is behind and the screens are small but I still love how compact it is, the iOS, the exclusive apps, has 3D that can look great and a lot of exclusive games. Currently I'm busy with Yoshi's Island (GBA), tried a couple of demos (Kingdom Hearts, Mutant Muds, Theathrythm FF) and will start on a 3DS game after Yoshi's Island. The 3DS has a lot of platformers and more typical Japanese games for now, it definitely pays to own both handhelds and enjoy what they have to offer. Though I'm more busy on the Vita right now, I'll focus more on the 3DS once more Vita games have been cleared.

Yesterday I've cleared Shinobido 2 and Escape Plan, both good games. Time to focus on Motorstorm RC and Gravity Rush :)
 
I DID IT I DID IT

I got it on no dust the first try!

:D

It's a little crooked, but it covers the ENTIRE screen so it's all good no dust no bubbles yesssss!

I was shaking when I was putting it on because I was nervous lol
 
When I first got my Vita I was neglecting my 3DS a lot.

Then I picked that lonely orphan up one day and I popped in Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia.........then I booted up Metroid Fusion.........then I played Ocarina of Time.......................

Valkyria Chronicles on PS Vita: how?

Hi there,
I'm a european owner.
The game is not in the store (using Ps Vita), I should buy it using my PS3 but sadly network is not working anymore on my home console, dunno why.

Do I have any chance to get it without buying it on my PS3 (using PSN)?
 
No, there is no other way. Try fixing it from your PS3 by going to the settings area and test the internet connection. Leave as much as possible on auto detect.

Edit: According to this list, Valkyria Chronicles II is not available on the European PSN store. The first game is a PS3 exclusive and thus incompatible with a PS Vita.
 
I enjoyed a lot Jeanne D'Arc on PSP.
Do you suggest me to buy Disgaea on PS Vita?
Looking at the videos it seem confused and I don't like so much its art...
 
If you've already played Final Fantasy Tactics: War of the Lions (btw, it's on sale this week in Europe) and Tactics Ogre, then Disgaea is a good alternative. Even though I didn't finish it, I prefer it to Jeanne d'Arc.

If you like SRPG's it is definitely worth picking up and looks really good on Vita. I played it on PS3 before the trophies patch and just couldn't bring myself back to it. I'm even debating finishing Disgaea 4 on PS3 because i'm hoping it gets ported to Vita because they are a such a great fit on that screen and on a portable being able to just do a quick battle and come back later.

Agreed. I can't see the 3D effect so does nothing for me but the games are different enough to warrant owning both and sharing my time. I haven't played my 3DS in awhile but I will be going back to it here soon with Theatrhythm, KH and Heroes of Ruin. Though I will probably wait to play those on the 3DS XL. If anything is getting ignored its my PS3.

And I swear you are just toying with me in ToMB. You just pop in to score a ridiculous high score then don't play again for a week. That's alright, its just motivation.

My 3DS hasn't had a moments play since I got the Vita (at launch).

If the Vita had launched first, I don't think I'd have bought a 3DS at all. I did enjoy Mario 3D Land though, so no real regrets.

Thanks for your hint mate!
Last question: do you suggest me to buy it retail or digital delivery?

I prefer having it on my memory card ready to go. I know in the U.S. its been on sale almost everywhere though for the retail version so that may be a factor for you there if its on sale at retail.
 
My Vita's right stick has gone all dodgy :( was fine the other day, now it barely works when i push it to the right. Bugger. Will have to check their online return policy to see how to go aboit getting a replacement.

Reset via the recovery menu, it actives nanomachines that fix many issues.

Joking aside, do it

Did it just suddenly stop working? Or has it been under pressure in the past? (in a bag, under someone's bum, etc)
Click to expand...

Seemed to be sudden. Hasn't been under any pressure either. Been in its hard case when it wasn't being used.

How do you get the recovery menu up? Never had to do it
 
SSD on "Normal" is far harder than on "Casual". I dread to think wat hardcore is like.

My Best "Casual" score, 73m and I had about 22 lives left at the end. My best "Normal" score, 6.5m. damn son.




Sorry to hear about your stick Carl, I've no doubt they'll replace it nice and fast though.

Hold the power button for 20 seconds to get the recovery menu.

– Turn OFF your PS Vita (Press Power Button for 10 seconds)
– Now press and hold “R” + Power + PS Button

I believe this is the first confirmed footage of Time Travelers for Vita:

Looks clean.

Don't get me wrong, it could be a beautiful game, but if you think that graphics wise probably vita could do something close to heavy rain...

I hate multi with 3ds :(
 
I don't think the goal was to go uncanny valley, but the animations when the characters are moving do leave a lot to be desired.
