Has Wipeout been reviewed anywhere yet? I'm curious about the length of the game.
What's up with Modnation Racers demo? I tried that one out as well and, man, it was pretty awful. Lengthy loading times (a staple for the series) mixed with a god awful framerate and ugly visuals really kills any appeal it might otherwise have.
The rest of the demos were solid, but Modnation was just terrible. Is there any indication that the final game will run any faster?
I know its been discussed, but this thing is classy as fuck. Will probably pre-order it along with a Vita on Amazon later today.
Before letting a queue of other people behind me have a go.
[ordered]- Thrustmaster V.I.P Case for PS Vita
It probably depends on how much it cost to do the port. If porting is cheap and rely on relatively few sales to break even, then i would say yes. But if the porting rely on selling a lot of copies, then ports might not be very common.
I'm surprised that they had any issues wit the framerate not being stable. Most of the user reviews have said its rock solid and beautiful.review Wipeout 2048 Eurogamer
They also say that the framerate is not stable...I hope they were playing an older build or the preview version :/
Modnation PS3 was also 30fps if i'm not mistaken and it had no effect on the gameplay in my opinion. If the Vita version has slowdown however, that is an issue that affects gameplay. Do you have any videos that shows plenty of slowdowns? And what do you mean that the cars dont cast any kind of shadow on the track?30fps with copious slowdown, and the cars don't even cast shadows of any kind on the track. Gotta love it.
Yep, i agree that this is a good idea. I'm sure that we will see some deals where there is some type of cross play between the PS3 and Vita, but i'm not sure if everyone will make such a solution. Only time will tell thoughSince Sony doesn't moneyhat exclusive games but instead try and entice with content, I'm wondering if Sony might stump up some of the cost of a Vita port and help with its development. In the end it helps them out. If you can buy "Skyrim 2: The Return of Backwards Dragons" on your 360, or on the Playstation "platform" which would allow you to move your save between devices it makes a compelling argument to go with the Sony version. That means more license fees for Sony. Just an idea. And I think we've been told before that porting is fairly simple because the Vita can use all the shaders and crap. Everything just needs lower res textures and lower poly models.
1 - 2 and no more than that (also no PSPs)
2 - Dunno, guess however it works on PS3 right now.
3 - Do you mean download on the two systems? Probably. Anything else? May need to clarify that, save slots probably depends on the game.

No, they're still pretty expensive.Just a quick question. Did the price of PSP games drop on the JPN PSN following the release of the Vita?
i mean
can you download a game like uncharted on psn and share it to another vita?
you pay once and download it 2 times into to vitas
Regarding Gravity Rush (Chinese Version), play-asia has confirmed to me that this version ONLY has Chinese subs, no English.
So, Destination Playstation 2012 starts today. We should get some vita related news/announcements out of it, right?

Does Vita have universal/OS-based custom soundtrack support (like 360), or is it a per-game basis like PS3?
Looking forward to putting some tunes on Ridge Racer Vita and Katamari for example...but the fact they have paid DLC music packs for RR makes me think the answer is it's a per-game basis.
Universal.
It's a retailer meeting so expect Wal-Mart to shit themselves when they realize they ordered 200k of these unsellable handhelds.
Forgive me if this has been mentioned elsewhere in the thread or on GAF, but has the US version of Gravity Rush been pushed to May for certain?
Isn't this a bit awkward ? 2 vita topics...
well this one is specifically about the game lineup while the other one is focused on the launch of the system
Yeah, but once the system launches, conversations about non-launch titles will be drowned out by the release hype and the day one lineup. This thread needs to remain open as a longer-term Vita discussion thread.doesn't the western one have also a game lineup ? really I'm confused :/

Am I the only one that feels like the coolest thing about the Vita is the AR games and possibilities to come?I find that the single coolest thing about the VIta, otherwise its just a really small PS3 with a touchscreen.
Fixed it. After spending some time with it, the touchscreen is what makes it feel different from a PS3 or even a PSP.

At first I was angry that the screen isn't glass, because it's a bit resistant to flicking if you've only used iPhone so far. That said, I quickly got used to it and now I think it's even better than on iPhone 4.What is the touchscreen like?I have an iphone would you say its very similar?Also do you feel the AR games loose their unique feel very quickly and are more of a 10 minute gimmick at this point?
The 3DS AR stuff has been more gimmick than cool possibilities so far. Based on that, I'm a bit reserved about expecting anything to be cool about it.
Do you feel its stupid to want to get a vita mostly for the AR games?Or do you think that there is a lot of game time to get out of them, and that its worth a purchase?
I haven't tried any of the Vita AR stuff, so I can't say for sure, but the 3DS stuff was certainly not worthwhile to center your purchase on and I think Nintendo put a decent amount of effort into it. Heck, I bought Nintendogs soley because of the AR stuff.
Maybe your right, I should wait a bit to see if they bring anything out that makes the AR a true show piece, like a full fledged game that uses the different surfaces as levels or something.That Reality fighters looks really interesting.Also will the vita do the whole play a game on your PS3 then carry on playing it on your vita on the move?I heard that somewhere.
Ya, you can do that if games support it. MLB The Show is going to do that and so is Motorstorm RC.
I,ll check it out, Ok last question, do you guys feel that the Vita could double as a tablet?I am interested in the ipad 3 because I love playing games on my iphone and watching movies and music ect.But I would never really use an ipad for work purposes, I might take notes on it at most.
Do you feel I could maybe get a vita instead, it obviously has better games,it does movies music pics ect.Do you feel a vita could be an alternative to an ipad in this case?
Unless you're just using your tablet to play media, probably not. Even if it's just media, probably not going to replace a tablet. It'll be a lot more limited because the app selection will be by far more limited.
But what it lacks in apps it makes up for in AAA games.You can surf the net on it, in fact besides the apps wouldn't you say the vita is the better way to go, and its half the price of an Ipad, but then again games are really pricey.
You have an iPhone; you'd be better off using that instead for that type of stuff.

Yep I have an iphone, so in a way I can still get all the latest apps, so then to buy an ipad 3 just to use for note taking and the apps and movies would make no sense.I think the Vita would be the better option instead of an ipad.Is the vita able to take notes?can you buy a keyboard attachments ?
Not bad, but forget Flash and HTML5, at least for now.Whats it like surfing the web on the Vita?
