[Maedhros]

Hope to see tons of other announcements at GDC/E3 this year. It needs.

 

[Adamm]

You should probably noted that Motorstorm RC & Ridge racer are already out in the EU

 

[Sephiroth503]

MK, Gravity Rush, Resistance and Unit 13. Give them to me!

 

[Box of Bunnies]

Here's hoping there's some big E3 announcements. System looks nice and I'd like to pick one up, but there's still really nothing I want to play on it outside of Gravity Rush, unless I grabbed FFX and ZoEHD instead of getting them on consoles. Might be nice to have portable.

 

[Kerrby]

We have a good stream of games until April, May is a bit dry along with the months after that.

Chances we'll see new game announcements at GDC in two weeks?

 

[Durante]

I'm really looking forward to games like Gravity Rush, Sumioni and even FFX HD, but when DJ Max Technika is released my life is over. Talk about "killer app". I actually forgot all about that until I read it in the list. Holy shit.

 

[Ruud_Luiten]

Wow, that's not an really good line-up.

 

[StuBurns]

Will DJ Max Technika reach the perfection of Elite Beat Agents? I'm eager to find out.

 

[SkoneLL]

Really excited for Mortal Kombat. It will be nice to have it on the go!

 

[Perkel]

Weird i see Motorstorm RC on PSN same as ridge racer...

 

[T.O.P]

DJ Max Technika Portable (CyberFront)

so much THIS

 

[Afrikan]

Sony is publishing Dust514? Is that just for the portable version, or does that mean Dust514 is truly going to be exclusive?

I figured there was a chance it might release on the WiiU.

 

[Afrikan]

Wow, that's not an really good line-up.

um........what were u expecting? I think that's a pretty good line up actually.

 

[whitehawk]

Wow, that's not an really good line-up.

I think it's pretty good. It's better than the 3DS's first year lineup that's for sure. And I'm sure we'll get some more announcements at E3.

 

[StuBurns]

I figured there was a chance it might release on the WiiU.

Why did you think WiiU? Wouldn't 360 have been the more natural expectation?

As far as I know, it's fully Sony exclusive. It's not even on PC, which is a very poor decision I think.

 

[luffeN]

Gravity Rush that late?

 

[Kafel]

Weird i see Motorstorm RC on PSN same as ridge racer...

First line of the OP.

 

[Grimmy]

You should probably noted that Motorstorm RC & Ridge racer are already out in the EU

It's why my heading clearly says North America on top. Otherwise it makes no sense to put Frobisher Says in the localization possibility list.

 

[Averon]

Looks like a pretty damn good lineup for a handheld's first year.

 

[DiscoJer]

um........what were u expecting? I think that's a pretty good line up actually.

Borderlands 2? X-com? Darksiders 2? Ghost Recon? NCAA football?

I would have hoped it would have gotten some of the bigger games also heading for the PS3.

 

[StuBurns]

Borderlands 2? X-com? Darksiders 2? Ghost Recon? NCAA football?

I would have hoped it would have gotten some of the bigger games also heading for the PS3.

A bunch of console ports better elsewhere? That'd be a really shitty line up.

 

[lantus]

Really looking forward to playing Final Fantasy X on Vita. It's been sooo long. I think it's actually better suited for Vita than PS3 as well, hopefully Square doesn't fuck it up.

 

[Grimmy]

Borderlands 2? X-com? Darksiders 2? Ghost Recon? NCAA football?

If that's your expectation then you should sell your Vita right now. It's not happening.

 

[Officerrob]

Looking forward to The Show, Disgaea, Mortal Kombat, and Gravity Rush (of those with dates)

 

[DiscoJer]

If that's your expectation then you should sell your Vita right now. It's not happening.

That's why I haven't bought a Vita yet.

The only thing that separates the Vita from the 3DS or iOS is the potential to do console quality games on a handheld. But it needs those console quality games - things like Gravity Rush and Frobisher says aren't going sell Vitas

 

[Gustav]

Great thread! Thanks.

You're missing the "New Irrational Game"
Still hoping for some open world WRPG for the console. Would be great.

 

[Durante]

But Gravity Rush clearly is a "console quality" game.

 

[StuBurns]

Great thread! Thanks.

It says BioShock.

 

[Thoraxes]

I think it's pretty good. It's better than the 3DS's first year lineup that's for sure. And I'm sure we'll get some more announcements at E3.

Still actually not a full year into it's lineup, I would have to completely disagree with you as of right now.

Looking forward to what Sony has to show at E3 though. Should be good I would hope.

But Gravity Rush clearly is a "console quality" game.

The game design looks catered to a portable experience, imo. That's exactly what I love about why i've been hearing about it too; it's a great portable title.

 

[Lain]

Man, why is Gravity Rush at the end of May? Such bullshit damn it.

 

[Gustav]

It says BioShock.

Oh - we know it's Bioshock?

 

[Skidd]

Gravity Rush is all that I need.


And a Vita.

 

[Lagspike_exe]

If Bioshock, Call of Duty and Assassin's Creed end up being great Vita will be mine. GT would also help.

 

[Durante]

It's good that you feel this way, but it was in development for a long time as a PS3 title.

 

[StuBurns]

Oh - we know it's Bioshock?

We know it's BioShock in name certainly, if it's like other ones or not, who knows. Levine said it's a game he's wanted to make for years, but didn't know of a fitting platform, which implies it's not going to be gameplay wise the same thing, to me at least.

Totally forgot it was supposed to be a BioShock title. Thanks!

Basically Levine came out at E3 and said, hey, a Bioshock game would be pretty cool on this, btu it would have to come after Infinite, and we have no plans to port Infinite to it because we would rather make a game catered to the system. There's no details, and I doubt that it's anywhere near anything solid at this point in time.

Basically, it's like when Sakurai finds out he has to make the next Smash Bros. game because someone who knows him says they heard Iwata promise a new Smash Bros. game next year.

Haha!

The game didn't start development, but it was more about getting the announcement and hype out there for people to grab on to.

 

[jump_button]

They still nothing really calling out for me at all, Need more handhold type games everything just feel so boring and been there done that

need more VITA only games

 

[bunbun777]

Hoping for more rpg announcements

They specifically said they have a second team in-house. It could be well into development already.

 

[RyougaSaotome]

It's good that you feel this way, but it was in development for a long time as a PS3 title.

And then it was in development as a Vita title. Who knows how much it has changed in terms of structure?

After spending 20 hours with the thing, it has very clearly, in its final form, been designed to be a great portable title.

 

[Thoraxes]

It's good that you feel this way, but it was in development for a long time as a PS3 title.

Yeah, and that's fine.

I like that it has the little hub-based area-play, short timed quests/mission, and the free-roaming aspects. It seems nice to just play for a little while after I hop on the train, or am waiting between classes. If it came out on the PS3 as originally intended and had the gameplay structure in it's current form, I probably would've waited for a price drop or something, but as a portable game it's got my money right away.

They specifically said they have a second team in-house. It could be well into development already.

I guess I can't say you're wrong, and I can't say i'm right; so we will do this the old-fashioned way: wait till E3 and with any luck, people will hammer Levine on this in interviews.

Edit: I'm Google fu-ing right now, but I can't see anything about it. Was it an interview or a news report?

Double Edit: Ahhhhh.

 

[StuBurns]

I've just been googling, and I guess bad news for some people, but good news for me, Levine has alluded to BioShock PSV being handled out of house, which means the second team there must be on something else. That'd be awesome.

 

[Sammy Samusu]

They specifically said they have a second team in-house. It could be well into development already.

That's nice. Last time I heard, he said they were looking for a team to start working on it.

 

[Portugeezer]

This thread needs more screenshots.

 

[Grimmy]

This thread needs more screenshots.

Sorry, feeling a bit lazy. I'll add some a bit later.

 

[Ruud_Luiten]

um........what were u expecting? I think that's a pretty good line up actually.

More games, more handheld games (lees ports of PS3 games).. more dates.

TBA we don't know, maybe it's this year, maybe next, right?
That leaves quite an empty schedule, also considering the list includes PSN games.

Could be way beter

 

[Callibretto]

I think the doom and gloom is getting to me. I fear come gdc, e3, and tgs, Sony will announce some sony published games, and western party game is all port or spin off while 3rd party jp dev is just hd port of old games and no original new games at all.

 

[Ronian]

I am only interested in 3 games... Gravity Rush, Ys IV and Persona 4. MAYBE New Little Kings Story. But I dont like the new art style :/
