Was looking forward to Earth defence force, but for £34.99 no thanks, would have been a perfect £20 game. I can't see it selling that well at full price. Never played jet set radio before so i'm enjoying that, looks great on the vita.
I've had my vita from day 1, and I love it, its the best portable console ever. There are loads of great games for it. The problems for vita at retail are caused by 2 main features,
No main stream adverts, if you don't read gaming media you will not know what vita is and what it can do.
The price of the memory cards, I know at least 5 people who would buy a vita but are not willing to fork out the silly prices for the cards. With playstation plus on vita now you really need one of the bigger cards.
I have an idea to get vita into more peoples homes, its mad, and drastic but would work,for the next year, buy a ps3 get a vita in the box for free. = more people buying vita games, more vita games getting made .... (told you it was mad) And get a brand new old school splinter cell on the dam thing!!
@flashman, "sting of buying the vita" what getting the best hand held on the market, with some fantastic games ...... I hate it when I get stung like that!
Been waiting for jet set radio, never played it when it first came out, and thought the demo was pretty good, looks fantastic on vita. Now do I buy strangers wrath or wait to see if we get it on plus ....
For the first time in 20 years i'm not to bothered about the next gen, there are loads and loads of games from this gen i've still got to play, and I have less gaming time nowadays, but that will prob change come E3!
The vita needs to get a bigger user base, the more people than own it, the more games will get developed for it. The more games = more people buying it ... I know alot of people who class them selfs as "core" gamers who say they will buy a vita if the memory cards were cheaper. So reduce the mem prices and more people would buy it. I dont want the playstation store full of IOS style games, I want something unique to vita, I want must have games (which there are loads of). Playstation plus has brought in loads of new vita owners, if memory cards were cheaper more people would buy just for PS+ content. If sony were to unlock remote play for all ps3 games the thing would rocket. PLEASE sony help the vita, listen to what people want.
With playstation plus on vita I really hope they bring the memory prices down, or fingers crossed someone like sandisc can produce massive cards!! Bundles like this could do the vita a world of good!
I've only been a ps plus member for a few weeks, am I right in thinking as long as a game is on your download list you can play for ever even if game goes of IGC, I don't have to download to console to keep?
Of course, but by doing this no one loose's out, blockbuster pay for the game, so sony get there money, I pay to rent the game so blockbuster get there money back, the vita version is free so it would be silly not to download it. so its win win for everyone. And i'll prob have to buy the online pass.
Just checked, the free vita version is not on a code in the box, its unlocked from the disc, when you load the ps3 game the option to download the vita game comes up on the XMB. You can only download the vita version to one psn account. which means, you can rent the ps3 version from Blockbuster and get the vita version, as long as no one else has downloaded it.
My blockbuster are lazy, if i'm first to rent it, the code will still be in box! I have got loads of nintendo points cards from blockbusters! I will give it try!
So the list gets updated, but as long as I download a game before it goes off list I can still play it? if this is the case i'll get a plus membership tonight!
How does ps plus work, if I download one of the free games ps3 and vita, will I be able to keep it for as long as i'm a member or do they have a time limit .... would hate to get half way through a game and it be taken away.
