While the poll results please me, I won't think much of it until I see sales (of course, when the consoles are released). It's all well and easy to 'pledge' support in the form of a vote, but their wallets will be the ones to speak.
There is much left to see, but I really do hope that Sony do(does?) well in the next few years, especially with the Vita.
@fchinaski omg looool I need to show this to people XD Very, very funny.
It's nice to see them putting up older PS3 games on the PSN store; I hope they keep doing it. A lot of older games can be hard to find, and many you might have never heard about otherwise, like the Rune Factory one.
@TheRealBatman I think a lot of things are ridiculous as well; will you judge me so greatly by my harmless opinion? What a world we live in, where one cannot even have an opinion, a preference, without being criticized.
After paying so much for a beast of a console, you'd hide it away if it looked a certain way because it's an "atrocity"? The PS3 is very ugly, but here it sits on my coffee table for everyone to see when they enter my house. The hdmi wire and power cable is hanging from it and in the way, and generally it's a mess. But who cares? Performance and games are what matters most. I really don't care WHAT the PS4 looks like, all I know is that I want one.
I am so psyched for this game >3</ Wish it was coming out sooner... but I have a lot of Vita games to keep me busy, plus upcoming Vita and PS3 games (yeeessss Dynasty Warriors 8 out in NA in July!), among other things
Yes yes YES!!! I'm so hyped for this game and I'm disappointed it won't come out until next year And that's probably just the date for Japan, eh? But I'm really glad to see Sony putting good effort into their struggling handheld, despite the sales.
I'd LOVE to talk to my console! All I need now is one of those fancy headsets and GO!! XD Lol, imagine playing a game and cussing when you're losing and the PS4 responds with some snarky comment and you're all like wth? xD
Hopefully this turns out to be true, because it'll sell more Vitas. And we all want that. But as for me, I don't care in the slightest. Why would I want to play a PS4 game on my Vita instead of my HD tv? My husband is always working and if he's home and wants to watch Netflix, he uses either the computer or his iTouch. We don't have cable.
That would have been nice for the Vita, as that Destiny footage was incredible. I've never played a shooter before, but that may very well be my first!
I will be SO disappointed if this turns out to be a PS3 game! THIS is the kind of game Vita needs more of! (The character art made me think of Gravity Rush, and the numbers made me think of TWEWY.)
I recently upgraded to a 16 gig card, up from the 4 gig I got it with. I want the 32 but at the moment it's really too expensive. While I absolutely love the convenience of digital games, I may have to start buying more physical releases and just picking the one physical game I want on the long car trip/long wait somewhere. (I'm probably going to need a new card soon as I also recently got PS+! Yay for free Blazblue this month :3 /excited).
Last month I bought Persona 4 Arena using the credit I got back in March (but I had to add $10). This month I bought Shinobido 2: Revenge of Zen for my Vita; I don't care what reviews say, this game is absolutely addicting and awesome! I can't wait for Lego Chima and Muramasa Rebirth
Huuuh, you know what, I may just buy this tonight :3 Thanks for the review! I overlooked this title before but it seems like something I'd enjoy in short bursts when I'm bored and on the go. Playing on the phone can drain precious battery life SO FAST >_>
@Sanquine I love your enthusiasm! I hope this announcement is something many Vita fans will be able to enjoy and I also hope Sony doesn't abandon us anytime soon >_> But the Vita has good support this year! Ys, Muramasa Rebrith, Totori+, Lego Chima, etc. I just wish I didn't have to wait until the end of the year for most of them! :< (But I do have to say even if he perhaps antagonized you I don't appreciate you implying Americans are stupid since they only learn one language. It's actually a stereotype and many Americans are bilingual, like myself. And I completely understand your English, there's nothing wrong with it )
I'm happy with what's coming out this year (speaking only of retail and err, not indie downloads). Even though I want more I'm already so swamped with all the PSP/Vita/PS3 games I have >_> I have so many that I'm overwhelmed when it comes to choosing what to play. And in the next month/month-half I'll be adding like three more games and one new system to my collection xD
@nathanuc1988 Never played an Ys game?! You must!! You can easily grab Ys Origin on Steam (really good entry in the series AND unique in that you don't play as silent badass Adol). I also highly recommend Ys Oath in Felghana (both on Steam and PSP/Vita), and Ys Chronicle I & II (PSP/Vita). The new Ys coming out is more like Ys Seven, which is arguably one of the easier games in the series and a bit different than the rest. Felghana and Origin is where it's at!
It'd be nice if they got someone to say "Ibn Battuta" right :<
But hey, between this and Torkaizer, the Arabs are on a roll I just wish they'd stop squandering their wealth on vanity while their own people (and fellow neighbors) starve and are murdered off in the various wars.
@rastamadeus Oh man, just the thought of that... Some games now have ridiculous trophy requests, like RO. I really do hope gimmicks like that are not utilized for trophies :/
I really don't care much for indies; I want the bigger companies to start making games for the Vita :/
The only indie games I have bought/played is the Aveyond series from Amaranth games (wish THIS was on ths Vita!), Jisei, To the Moon, and games from Bigfishgames and that one other website.
I think it's a hindrance. I want some high-quality exclusives already! I have a PS3 and I never use the cross-buy/cross-save feature. Never. But hey, just because I don't doesn't mean others are the same :/
What? 6,847 for LoH? That's beyond disappointing. With those numbers, there's no way XSeed will take a chance on it, and perhaps even Falcom will not be as enthusiastic either. It's a shame that one of the best series ever made has such a horrid opening, granted it's an HD remaster, but still :c
Watched the CGR review of this and have to say it looks really good! And that's a real compliment coming from me as these types of games are not up my alley, so to speak. If this comes to Vita then there's a good chance I'll pick it up.
All three home console PS start-ups are nice (PS1 is beast), but the PS3 has to be my favorite because when I hear/see it I know my PS3 is working, ROFL.
(My PS3's hdmi port is acting up and I can recall countless times spending 10+ minutes just trying to get it to work.)
Thanks for the responses (And I can't wait to read the review >3<)
This will probably be the game I purchase with that $10 credit, whenever we get it :<
Y'know, I wasn't really going to bother with guacamelee, but those graphics have really caught my attention. I hope it's not one of those really short games :<
+1 to Dissidia and Theatrythm. I'd also LOVE to see all of Falcom's Legend of Heroes games on the Vita. LOCALIZED. I also want Atelier Meruru Plus and Atelier Ayesha to be ported to the Vita. And just more unique/cute games that aren't pervy Cuteness like New Little Kings Story-esque graphics.
I am so, so guilty >__> I think I have close to 30 games on my backlog (though by "backlog," I mainly mean played them some but never finished them). You can't blame me completely, though. I have ADHD and get bored of stuff fairly quickly. Not to mention I just love buying things. Bad, bad combination
This would suck as I'm using a different PSN account for my Vita than I am for my PS3 (same account also has ALL my PSP games). I'd be stuck between a rock and hard place. My fault, yeah, but still D:
^ Thanks, someone finally understands. I hate it when women are used as nothing more than sex objects.
@ThreadShadow If you're referring to something I said, I did mention that I am against both (hyper-sexualization and grotesque violence/horror). And you're crazy if you think it's just a case of bouncing boobs! The women are nearly naked and hyper-exagerated. Boobs are always bouncing and exagerated in Japanese media anyways, but that's not the only issue here. It's extreme in like every angle.
@divinelite IKR?? I was just casually browsing on the Vita PSN yesterday when BAM I saw that and I couldn't BELIEVE it! I thought it'd be another YEAR until we got that game! It was one of my most wanted titles for the system. Now I just hope we also get Meruru and maybe even Ayesha! (one can dream >_>). I have a PS3 but I'd much rather play them on the Vita. It's a good thing I already played Rorona, though. Please localize Meruru for Vita, I need my Rufus fix .-.
Why such a heavy emphasis on sex appeal? It's like they felt the need to pad their game with that crap because no one would buy it otherwise >_> Two things I absolutely detest in video games: hyper-sexualization and grotesque violence/horror. Oh well, my opinion means nothing. I just won't buy it
