The PlayStation Vita In 2011-2012

I asked Pixeljunk if they were going to release any of their titles on the Vita and they said "No plans to announce just yet". The "just yet" part gives me hope for the future.

$10 on PSN. Everyone should own this game...
 
Already got it, hope it scales well.

I would love to see a lot of the PS3s PSN games on the Vita. I did ask Housemarqu about Dead Nation but got zip.

It wouldn't make sense for them to NOT do it, don't you agree? I can't imagine porting Dead Nation to Vita would eat too much of a budget.. so why not?

I agree entirely. But how many other things make perfect sense to us but never see the light of day?

I hope they release some sort of collection. I love Eden and Monsters, and I would love to have them on a handheld (though I guess Monsters already is).
 
Gravity Daze is already out in Japan? :O

And people haven't completed it and thought the second half is even better?! :OOO

There should be an OP, I demand more impressions.

(If there's one already, I'd appreciate a link)
 
Will I be able to play this on my Vita if I own the PSN/PS3 version?

Via remote play, yes.

It's out next week in Japan.

People were talking about Uncharted picking up in the second half.

It's not out till the 9th.

What's made you think otherwise?

EDIT: Damn you Takao and your editing!
 
If Remote Play gets activated without problems on all games I might just buy a PS3 to play Clash of Heroes, Journey, God of War 3 etc in my bed.
 
What's the deal with FIFA 12 Vita online? Does it have cross platform multiplayer with PS3 players?

They arent using the latest physics engine in the game which Fifa 12 uses - so cross plattform multiplayer isnt possible.

Not in this version. Cross platform play (cloud saving to pick up your save on the other console) and multiplayer are things they are trying to work into the next iteration.
 
Seriously. The trend of straight-up ignoring the magnitude of Uncharted, looking like Uncharted, on a handheld, at launch, is ridiculous.

It's fine if you don't like the franchise, but there's no denying this is a major achievement. I played the game today, and even the basic fact of free-aiming actually feeling good is incredible.

maybe if you've just come off the back of playing Uncharted 3 it doesn't have the same impact? I've held of playing UC3 until I've finished UC on Vita. I like how it feels like the first game.
 
Hey GAF, I might be mistaken, but I seem to remember that some PSP games don't work on PSV, is that the case? Could I get a list?
 
Who is doing the OT, I would like to do it if no one is doing it, I already prepared the FAQ section (which is the OT itself ,lol).
 
I thought all the digital games worked? Ruh roh if that is not the case.
Phantasy Star Portable titles apparently don't, along with a few others. Some have been added through updates though, like Criminal Girls (not that we saw it, nor do I really WANT it out here), so it's not impossible nearly everything will be there. I'm more worried about games that got pulled, like Brave Story. The Vita would be a great opportunity to work through my PSN backlog, and that's one of the meatier ones. Then again replaying Persona 3 probably IS a better use of my time anyway.
 
German-Gaf:

Want a Vita with three free games and a 4GB memory card?

Playstation-Liga is having a launch event on February 21st at the SonyStyle Store in Berlin. There are shuttle busses starting in many big cities that will take you for free to the launch event and back home. Included in the launch event is also a party with a concert and free food.

Only requirement is that you buy a Vita at the launch event.

The free games are Uncharted, Wipeout 2048 and Little Deviants. All downloads.
 
Ah, my biggest PSP time sinks Phantasy Star Portable 2 and Tactics Ogre are not supported? Well fuck that! I need a time out to calm down and relax.

Edit: My PSP finally died in December so I decided not to re-purchase another one as 90% of my games were digital and thought I would just get the Vita instead. I was looking forward to playing PSP2 but this time with a right stick. Man I am one angry gamer now.

Wow, that´s really good way to promote the Vita.
 
I'm wondering specifically about FF4CC and Tetris, I ask about Tetris because for some reason, it doesn't play on PS3s, so I'm wondering if EA specifically only allow it to work on PSP.

So this or the Amazon pre-order (8GB card and Rayman Origins for 229,25€?
I live in Berlin so probably this, right?

Help me guys! Can't decide.

I thought all PSP titles run on Vita - I really need a list of non-compatible software now.

Yeah, I thought they all worked. The only issue was that some have been pulled from PSN and because you have to redownload to install them, you can't use the version already installed on your PS3 - effectively makes them 'incompatible' as they don't exist anymore

I'm making an OT for the western launch together with weekend_warrior, and I already have a FAQ section prepared. I'd love to have it expanded though.
 
How to do get this bundle for 229,25 Euro?

Actually I do not know - seems like it was an error on Amazons part. It says 229,25 for me, because of an over 90€ discount that I do not understand. Happened when I canceled my pre-order and re-ordered.
It may have something to do with the pre-order pack I got last year because of the prior pre-order. Maybe they deducted the price or something.

Found this in Google and on Gamefaqs, a list via search on the Japanese Playstation site that lists PS Vita compatible games, and I DID spot Tactics Ogre on there afterall. It probably isn't a guarantee for US compatibility, and the one game I mentioned (Brave Story) shows up only as a UMD game when I dug up the Japanese name, but most of those I'd want like Atlus and Falcom games are there.

I didn't intend to buy the Vita this early but damn that's really tempting (and i live in Berlin).
 
How would you rank it against the console Uncharteds?

As good as the first, but vastly different from 2 and 3. There's no massive set pieces, lots of shooting, the climbing is slightly less linear, loads more stuff to find, decent story (
but the big reveal is really glossed over
) and solid characters.

Visually it's gorgeous, the screens really don't do it justice at all.
