@Savino Completely agree with you, as I live in Brazil too but my PSN account and my Nintendo Network account are from North America so I can pay games without feeling mugged... However a prefer physical releases, so I have to wait a lot of time for a price drop or order internationally which takes a lot of time...
@JaxonH Completely agree with you. The Vita needs quality EXCLUSIVE games. Remote play can be nice, but it is NOT a seelling point. If there aren't great games, people won't feel the need to buy one. I only got my Vita because I couldn't play Gravity Rush anywhere else. Other games helped my purchase, specially Persona 4 Golden, which I also couldn't get on the PS3. If there weren't any good exclusives, I wouldn't own a Vita even though I tend to play more on the go.
@rjejr For me it wasn't that hard because I still have my 80GB Playstation 3 so the reduced memory wasn't such a bad thing. I plan on gettin a big SD card for it though, but I can wait a little more. I managed to finish New Super Mario Bros U and it was wonderful. I really enjoyed the Rayman Legends demo and I know I will get it for the Wii U. Other than that I started to play Nintendo Land, but it still didn't click with as much as I thought it would... I'm addicted to Project X Zone on the 3DS and I'm almost finished with it, so I'll soon dedicate more time to my Wii U as I thought it was a great machine.
@rjejr I also just got my WiiU and this weekend I got to play The Wonderful 101 demo and it was great! I also played New Super Mario Bros U and had a great time with it. On the Playstation front, I only played a little of Sonic & All Stars Racing Transformed on the Vita.
@Savino
Great! I'll get it for sure, I just don't know if I should go digital (my 16GB memory is strugglling right now and I already had to delete two games) or physical, considering it's hard to find a cheap copy here...
@Legendary-boss Completely agree with you. I would love if Sony already figured out what to do with the Vita. However I go agree with Sammy that it would be a great way to get the Vita to more people. On the other hand, I didn't buy my Vita so it would be a "companion app", so I would love that it got some exclusive games that realized its potential.
@Snorky
No problem but Tomb Raider hooked from the very first second I played it. I'm five hours in on The Last of Us and I honestly have few reasons to get back. Maybe it will be a lot better later, but for now, it's not better than Tomb Raider or Bioshock Inifinte. Both games hooked me so much that I finished each on 2 weeks. I have The Last of Us since launch but I don't feel as compelled to finish as I was with those other 2 games. Again, opinions...
I absolutely LOVED the new Tomb Raider. For me it is probably the best game thtat came out this year. IMHO, It's better than other big games like Bioshock Infinite (which I also loved) and The Last of Us (which I still haven't finished and think is kinda overrated).
For me, the lack of Columba in the first Bioshock is what turned me away from the first Bioshock. Although, after finishing Infinite I'm definetely enjoying the original more, which I started for the second time after Infinite. Hopefully I'll finish it soon.
I'm actually torn on which version I'll get. 2D games is great with good 3D, but I lke the sound of Vita better. I wish both versions will get demos so I can decide...
As for the article, I think Sony is ignoring the strengh and potential of the Vita... If Gravity Rush 2 was announced, I would be very, very happy as that game is great!
@Paranoimia I completely agree with you. I bought the Vita for the big guns that Sony promissed and has failed to deliver so far. The only reason that I don't regret buying a Vita is Persona 4 Golden and Gravity Rush. As for the indie titles I loved Sound Shapes and it is one of my favorite games on the system. However, after I bought Escape Plan on the first year discount, I was hugely disapointed and haven't bought others indie titles after that. I still have to play Tales from Space, which I'm enjoying, but I didn't buy the Vita for minor titles... Honestly, I don't see the point of releasing a machine as powerful as the Vita and flooding it with indie titles that the PSP could handle... This year I'm really looking forward to playing Killzone: Mercenary, even though FPS aren't my thing, just because I want something new to play. The only other title that I'm loong forward too is Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD.
@ObviouslyAdachi Ultimate Marvel Vs Capcom 3 is great! As for Street Fighter X Tekken, it does play a lot like SFIV and I really enjoyed it. The biggest problem with the PS3 version (on-disc DLC) is a non issue on Vita if you buy the game new. It is true that the gems doesn't add that much to the gameplay, though. I also didn't play the game online a lot, so I can't say if that portion it is any good.
@ObviouslyAdachi Have you tried Street Fighter X Tekken on the Vita? It plays very similarly to SFIV and have a lot of character. Ultimate Marvel Vs Capcom 3 is also great to play on Vita.
I went with Final Fantasy XV only because I believe it will come earlier than Kingdom Hearts 3. On second thought, Kingdom Hearts 3 was the best surprise because it was really unexpected.
@Sanquine I also hope that the WiiU will survive. Hopefully, they will pull a 3DS and it will become a major system. Anyway, looks like in this generation I will do the same combo as the last (Nintendo+Sony)

I'm on the same boat as you. I'd love to play it, but I have very little free time to play a game like this...

I love fighting games and have 7 one my PS3, 3 on my 3DS and 3 on my Vita. I'll certainly download the updtae when it is avaliable.
Re: So, Atlus' Parent Company Just Registered a Persona 5 Domain
Considering that Person 4 Arena arrived at PS3 and Xbox 360, I think this would be multiplat. However I would like a Vita version...
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue Eight
I'm finishing Zelda:Skyward Sword and I'm playing Animal Crossin: New Leaf (extremely addicciting...).
If I can beat Zelda, I'll play The Last of Us.

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue Seven
A litlle late to respond, but this weekend I played Batman Arkham City and The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword
