Vita PSN Game & Service Thread | February 2013 | The most desirable handheld in Japan
- Thread starter Noi
- Start date
PSP version actually out sold the PS3 version I think
Also soul sacrifice site update with a lot new info might make a thread:
Different boss, same arena? Looks like one of the locations where you fight the harpy in the demo.
Anyway, every time I see more of it, the less I can wait.

Aghhh! I'll send one later if I can. Generally pretty terrible at those races, though.

If this keeps up I might have to buy another memory card, and get an EU PSPlus account. Take that, Sony. If you don't support NA then I'll... give you more of my money...

I don't think they've been touched up. If they were, the screenshots probably wouldn't look so compressed.
Does that mean the March thread is coming next week? HYPE.
I'll check my Gravity Race time to see if I somehow topped that without noticing.
edit toto before you toto they fixed the textures.
huh..interesting.
now-if it's really fixed and it's not just bullshots-then all the VitaGAF people who attacked me over complaining about the shitty textures which the should really feel bad.
that will be too painful thing to do just to avoid a great game.
and it's not even your traditional shonen fantasy JRPG, it different and focus on story and social and personal relationships with characters.

Huh, didn't notice that Atlus US finally realised that Europe exists and have released Growlanser and Gungnir on EU PSN.

4 days until the end of the contest.

Who's doing the march thread? Anything I can help with?
so? SCEI own the IP (read the copyright line) they have the source code.
so first you said why Sony is making family friendly games for PS4
and now you are saying Sony should not make family games on Vita too.
so what should we get MH clones on Vita and Military shooters on PS4? Sony should kill every other IP and shutdown MM and every other studio?
I'm honestly unable to understand you here.
but what I know is that variety of genres and games is necessary for every platform.
....I'm thinking of doing it, it will be the best Vita OT.
sadly my english suck

Speaking of Soul Sacrifice, it is kinda interesting that Sony is going to support PS3 Ad-hoc party (at least in Japan), even SS is already going to let you go online without PS3.
It is actually the indication that Sony is actually listening to what customer. Ever since Ad-hoc party was introduced it was eventually adapted as the PSP online multi player session hub application, and many people want to stick with what they are used to.

This month's Vita challenge. It's in the OP!
So? SCE doesn't exactly revive the most obscure PSN games they can on a usual basis.
I'm not necessarily saying that Sony should only make shoot bang and cut them games, but I just don't see the reason to make games for families, when families don't own the platform. You're better off making a hardcore gamer oriented title because they're the ones who'll first own a platform.

Whatever happened to that SCEE manager that was hyping up this week and us getting a bunch of vita games announced and after Hotline Miami was announced teasing one of many or something? Are games announced at Destination Playstation (I think that's next week?)
My prediction is 3 SKUs at launch.
$399 with PS4, PS4Eye, DS4, 500GBs, headset, HDMI cable
$499 with PS4, PS4Eye, DS4, 1TB, headset, HDMI cable, PSMove, PSNav (or 3 months PS+, not sure)
$599 with PSVita wi fi (if no revision by then, cheapest model), PS4, PS4Eye, DS4, 500GBs, headset, HDMI, cable

Last time I checked 10-18 year olds didn't live alone without a family. I am a core gamer, but that didn't change the fact that I picked up some family oriented titles as a kid to play with my parents.
Especially with the casual gaming market being so big now it doesn't hurt to have a few titles that the parents might want to play even on a core system as it might help them lean towards that yes even if they don't plan to play with little jimmy to much.
given that the psv will likely be $200 at the time the ps4 launches I really don't see any reason to have a third bundle that is just the ps4 and psv combined together at full retail price for both given your numbers... a bundle should have some sort of discount.

Out of curiosity why does the title of the thread say that the vita is the most desirable handheld in Japan when the vita is failing on all fronts?
The sales ALWAYS look like this in Japan:
3DS XL - 117,435 (Last week - 134,652)
3DS - 51,441 (52,425)
PlayStation 3 - 17,035 (18,043)
PlayStation Vita - 4,021 (5,039)
and even Sony just admitted the vita is a colossal failure

I've only played the demo, but that framerate is pretty brutal.
Also, as someone who's played a lot of Trails HD and evolution, the game felt really really clunky in comparison. Was pretty hard to get over that considering how similar the games are.
Are they any good?

If that's the case then $549, but I doubt it. Sony will lose money on the core PS4 SKU and, according to Kawano, is losing money on each vita sold now after the price drop. They would have two PS4 SKUs that are loss leading and one that would probably break even. If they can do a vita revision where their margins there are improved, then I can see a bundle for $549.
Someone call him out on twitter.
Those are not this week's numbers, where did you get them from? And the recent for the title is because of a recent famitsu survey. Everyone here is aware of vita's pathetic sales and colossal failure, the title is all fun and games.
http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=509400
and sales charts..really?
so you are telling us the game has a rock solid framerate now?
My impressions:
Just finished Urban Trial (without 5 starring everything). Some of those level ideas in the later levels were pretty fun. Props to the level designer. I wish it had more levels though. Considering it took me quite a bit over an hour earlier to 5star a certain level, this game will still keep me busy for a while. According to the leaderboards, I am the only person who played the last level so far, yay me (and lol @ reviewers)
Fun game, easily worth the 8 bucks.
It definitely has some framerate issues, though. I didnt mind them as much though and had lots of fun with it. If you are allergic to lower FPS, you might want to consider skipping this fun game.

Damn totally forgot there's a demo available. Thanks I'll check it out, I only tried the demo of trials on xbl and I liked it but felt it was something that would be best played on a portable device.

I never said that.
It is NOT 20fps though. I've almost finalised all levels now and it's been 30 almost the entire time except for a couple of dips when the level loads, and one time where there is an explosion with lots of debris
....I'm thinking of doing it, it will be the best Vita OT.

Please do it.

I think some of the later leaderboards are screwed because I completed it last night and I was finding it hard to believe I was the only person to do so.
I pretty much agree with everything you said. Fun with a ropey framerate.
You've quoted Chartz in two separate threads now. You're a shit troll, try harder.

I believe it's because it loses connection to PSN so doesn't load the leader boards

Bullshit numbers and the hyperbolic claim that Sony admitted the Vita is a 'colossal failure', also bullshit. How are you not banned yet? Literally all you do is very poor attempts at trolling.
The 'most desirable handheld' comes from a Famistu survey where readers listed the Vita as their most wanted console in 2013, so you fail.
...Anyway, Argos are still selling 32GB cards for £44 but there's only one in stock - 50 miles from me. Not sure I need more space that much lol.
I might pick up Urban Trials soon. I barely played Trials Evolution on 360, though. :/
Ah that makes sense. Pretty weird that I get user scores up to a certain level and then they just black out from world 4 or so.
not the same IP,different developers.
but of you don't like the genre just stay away and save your money,the game is not good.
that like $70 right?
seriously,it is like they just abandoned the game completely.
I heard that too, which reminds me that I should check out whether there were some great new levels with the music/instrument DLC a while ago.
