When was that poll? I recall a similar ng poll from some months ago that mentioned the Megaman series.

It was during last summer, I believe. Capcom was supposedly trying to gauge interest on games.

 

[anddo0]

I was wrong then. see Lyphen post.

No, it isn't. http://blog.us.playstation.com/2013...tion-comes-to-ps-mobile-today/#comment-828573

Sucks

I'll have to make up $1.99.. A movie maybe.

 

[Schobeleth]

I picked the worst week ever to get banned.

Looking forward to all of the new indie goodness

Welcome back Carl!

I'm getting knee deep into NFS: Most Wanted. If you like racers, just get this game. It's so amazing. My single player progression is really picking up nicely, so far I have:

16/61 Events
14/61 Events Won
6/10 Most Wanted Cars
36/41 Cars Driven
88/123 Jackpot Spots Found
111/156 Billboards Smashed
59/66 Speed Cameras Triggered
100/135 Security Gates Smashed

Total completion - 57%

This is all without guides of any kind, just me driving around the open-world goodness. I also haven't been focusing on races as much (obv) as I've been focusing on exploring more and getting used to the map more. I know the map of Burnout: Paradise like the back of my hand so I'm trying to memorize this new one. I just love this game, can't recommend it highly enough.

Machinarium works really well with the back touch pad.

Machinarium works really well with the back touch pad.

How does it use that feature?

 

[Takao]

How does it use that feature?

The game's a point and click adventure title. I was questioning why the Vita version still had a cursor when you could use the front touch screen (and the analog sticks), but it made sense once I started touching the back. Using the touch pad keeps the screen free of your fingers, and feels more precise than using the sticks.

It's kind of weird that the game is 4:3 though.

 

[Koroviev]

huh..wow this is weird.

PSM is the not wanted red headed stepchild confirmed.

I'm confused. The link redirects to an article about Forevolution.

Speaking of which, has anyone played it?

Wait the vita version has a cursor, you can't just touch the front screen?

 

[OmegaTreeFish]

Want to buy a new game today. Can't decide. Few questions.
Dead or alive 5. How is the multiplayer holding up? Connection times , lag etc. I'm in the UK.

Alelier totori - looks great graphically but having trouble telling if its for me. I know its heavily crafting based. How long is the game and is there a decent main story?

Any other suggestions?

 

[Takao]

You can, but the way they have the front touch set up isn't 1:1. You'll touch something, but the cursor will not be where your finger pressed against the screen. The back touch is 1:1.

Buying escapeVektor finally @_@

don't have much time to play it now, but hopefully soon~

It's in the post already, just quote it to see. Unless you're asking if they're used.

I wish every game were 37 MB, lol

 

[CoachKevin]

PSA: Sega All Star Racing Transformed is $19.99 for Vita now. Picked it up this morning. Guess it is on sale. The game is a ton of fun!

 

[VanWinkle]

Haha, I know. It's great.

 

[Lumination]

Guys, I have $55 in my wallet. Should I get DJMax or Atelier Totori Plus? I love both rhythm and RPG genres, but I'm iffy on kpop (former) and super cutesy atmospheres (latter). Halp!

I agree with this!

Bought it to just "check it out"... 3 hours later I was still playing lol.

Edit: Also loving Machinarium. Works great on vita and the visuals and animations are cool too.

Saving disgaea for last since it's a huge game I hear.

Soul Sacrifice needs to hurry up,at least a demo next month would do,my Vita is being hardly used for months now.

 

[CaptainTiptop]

I'm expecting the Soul Sacrifice demo in the next few weeks in Europe at least... unless the demo is coming the same day as the full release, like with DOA5+. That'd suck. :/

 

[ZeroAKA]

Soul Sacrifice needs to hurry up,at least a demo next month would do,my Vita is almost collecting dust for months now.

I've been doing a search on the US PSN Store every Tuesday for the Soul Sacrifice demo for weeks now. I hope they don't wait until April 30 to release the demo, which would be counterproductive since progress is carried over to the main game. (Team Ninja, I'm looking at you.)

Japan had the demo for well over a month...

Now that Vita has "carved an independent niche" Its time to think for new month's topic's subtitle.
Be creative. It just might come true

Also who is doing the new thread?

 

[Shoyz]

Considering they've been dead silent, I wouldn't be surprised if the demo came -afterwards-.

Oooh, I can just taste my Persona 4 Golden platinum. I just need the last automatic Jester rank up, fuse that arcana's ultimate Persona, and defeat

The SS demo been out in Japan since December IIRC. I'm assuming SCEA/SCEE is just being incompetent, as usual. Remember Wake-up Club?

I have a hunch they're gonna do that but I hope not.

I got EDF, no one is playing it on my friends list here, thought that was funny. It's exactly what I was expecting, simple bug blowing up mindless fun. Great pick up and play game when bored with everything else or watching TV.

yeah I'm thinking of selling my Vita,I have steam so the late indie ports strategy will not work for me, and the MonHon clone Vita just got was not that hot going with the Japanese charts and there is nothing big coming for the system(other than Killzone: 9 Missions Edition).

Go for it I guess,Killzone:9 missions and Textures Sacrifice are the reasons why I'm keeping it and maybe we'll get a big game or 2 later in the year,who knows.

So you base your interest and purchases on charts?

Good-bye.

I don't think Toto is saying it's charts. It's just for him (and me) the system getting an indie serge does nothing for him (and me). He (and I) would rather have ports of things like DOA5 and Disgaea 3/4... than stuff like Hotline Miami.

Though I will allow Frozen Synapse.

sales numbers and big named IPs from Capcom are all that matter.

yeah joking aside, for people with Steam or who don't care about indie games this strategy will not work and Vita will be less appealing,many people got it because they want console experience on the go and big games switching the strategy like this a year later after release is just not good.

I'm not big on puzzles, but I like point and click. I think I'll pick this up to support the indie movement. I needed to spend $2.02 on something anyway.

 

[Chaos Theory]

I've just never seen the appeal of Musou games.

I just can't fathom the attraction.

when you watch it on video or someone play it. its bad. but when you play it your self. its addictive. i am not much of fan of it but i know if i pick one up, i will play for like an hour killing waves and waves of dudes. plus add to the fact one Piece is very popular.

i already bought the first one and i am buying the second one on vita. these kind of games are perfect for handheld.

 

[OmegaZero]

I finally got to play the Texture Sacrifice JP demo.

No it isn't. She kept asking to borrow your Vita games. You did. She never gave them back. YOU KEPT GIVING THEM TO HER!
