dwarf Posted September 7, 2011 Posted September 7, 2011 I thought it looked a bit clunky and uninspired myself. Seemed to have the same barebones mechanics/look of Drake's Fortune.
Daft Posted September 7, 2011 Posted September 7, 2011 Yeah, there wasn't much going on but I suspect that's because it was probably more showing off how the Vita would work as opposed to Uncharted.
dwarf Posted September 7, 2011 Posted September 7, 2011 But it would've been in development for a long time before now seeing as it launches so soon, I'd be surprised if it wasn't ripped from an actual segment of le final game. Either way I'm not sold by a handheld Uncharted. System has mahoosive potential with the right software though.
ReZourceman Posted September 7, 2011 Posted September 7, 2011 Yeah I'm not exactly shitting bricks over Uncharted GA, but I'm obviously going to get it, basically for shits and giggles/Uncharted story fill in.
Serebii Posted September 7, 2011 Posted September 7, 2011 The Vita to me does seem like an impressive piece of kit technologically, despite the crazyass pointless back-touch control. The thing that's holding me off getting one is the game lineup. Nothing in it appeals to me at the moment. I hope this changes but still, until then...
ReZourceman Posted September 7, 2011 Posted September 7, 2011 You have never played Uncharted, Super Star Dust or Disgaea, have you? :p
Serebii Posted September 7, 2011 Posted September 7, 2011 Last two, no. I've played Uncharted and found it massively over-rated
ReZourceman Posted September 7, 2011 Posted September 7, 2011 Uncharted or Uncharted 2(?), because I think both have appropriate levels of praise.
MadDog Posted September 7, 2011 Posted September 7, 2011 Last two, no. I've played Uncharted and found it massively over-rated That hurt. The second one ...that's, just...unbelievable. What didn't you like?
Cube Posted September 7, 2011 Posted September 7, 2011 You have never played Uncharted, Super Star Dust or Disgaea, have you? :p I have no idea what SSD is, but Disegea is just a JRPG, right? Also: Serebii. You're as wrong about Uncharted 2 as I am about Pokémon (from your perspective). I don't think it's so much the lack of games, it's more that the majority simply don't appeal to me.
Serebii Posted September 7, 2011 Posted September 7, 2011 I just found it clunky and unresponsive. Looked great though
ReZourceman Posted September 7, 2011 Posted September 7, 2011 I have no idea what SSD is, but Disegea is just a JRPG, right? Super Star Dust is a lot of fun. Dismissing Disgaea because it is a "JRPG" would be foolish (I am not saying I blame you however). I think one could argue that it is Americanised/influenced. But basically. It is a turn based, Chessboard-type, strategy RPG. Heavy heavy customisation, you can level up not only characters but also weapons, different coloured characters of type class unlockable, a LOT of actually GENUINELY funny humour....literally a funny game, great options for weapons (e.g. not just "axe. Sword. sythe" etc, but gun, axe, magic, defence magic etc...lots of options. Name options, and fun and frantic battles. Chain reaction colour board changing geo-squares. (Here are the Prism Rangers) Disgaea is in my top favourite games of all time. It is an absolute JOY. And it gave the world Prinnies. http://disgaea.neoseeker.com/w/i/disgaea/9/91/Prinny_Sprites_(Disgaea_2).png
heroicjanitor Posted September 7, 2011 Posted September 7, 2011 I never got disgaea 3 on ps3 so I'm happy I can get it on vita. I also never played Persona 4 ( which one of my friends thinks is the business) so that being near launch is good too. Square Enix haven't shown/announced anything yet have they?
Magnus Posted September 7, 2011 Posted September 7, 2011 Persona 4 is fantastic. Your friend is very wise. You're not good enough for him/her, since you haven't played it yet. The Vita to me does seem like an impressive piece of kit technologically, despite the crazyass pointless back-touch control. The thing that's holding me off getting one is the game lineup. ... Says the guy with two 3DSs. Dismissing Disgaea because it is a "JRPG" would be foolish (I am not saying I blame you however). But it's "just a JRPG". Whatever that means.
Daft Posted September 7, 2011 Posted September 7, 2011 Honestly not sure what more people would want from the announced games. Hell, even the launch titles are relatively impressive. I love Super Stardust. It's like gaming zen.
Cube Posted September 7, 2011 Posted September 7, 2011 Honestly not sure what more people would want from the announced games. Unless the Uncharted game is really, really good (although even then I'd must rather have it on PS3), the only franchise I can think of that would make me get the Vita (that isn't exclusive to Nintendo/Microsoft) is Mass Effect. It's hard to judge announced games for a console when you have little interest in the franchises. Of course, I'm not ruling out that there will be some great games that may be system sellers - it's just that people who aren't fans of the main franchises won't really know until the game is out.
The Bard Posted September 8, 2011 Posted September 8, 2011 ReZ, you into Advance Wars of FF Tactics at all? I've been looking for people to play online with
Diageo Posted September 8, 2011 Posted September 8, 2011 Stardust gets boring very quickly. I don't see where all this love for it comes from.
LegoMan1031 Posted September 8, 2011 Posted September 8, 2011 I have no idea what SSD is, Super Star Dust WAS AMAZING Fixed for truth.
Aimless Posted September 8, 2011 Posted September 8, 2011 In this thread, we discover that different people have different tastes. And that Serebii's tastes are objectively wrong.
Daft Posted September 8, 2011 Posted September 8, 2011 Serebii is pretty hilarious on the 3DS Thread. Unless the Uncharted game is really, really good (although even then I'd must rather have it on PS3), the only franchise I can think of that would make me get the Vita (that isn't exclusive to Nintendo/Microsoft) is Mass Effect. It's hard to judge announced games for a console when you have little interest in the franchises. Of course, I'm not ruling out that there will be some great games that may be system sellers - it's just that people who aren't fans of the main franchises won't really know until the game is out. Fair enough. I think I'm on the fence about it but only because I'm not sure exactly if it would fit into my day.
flameboy Posted September 17, 2011 Posted September 17, 2011 (edited) http://www.destructoid.com/confirmed-playstation-vita-is-region-free-211620.phtml confirmed as region free. Great news for me seem as I am set to move to Canada. Means basically I think I will pick one up come release over here. I think the addition of Android games for Playstation Suite running on it is a massive plus, hopefully the approval process isn't too much effort for developers. For me the Vita really looks like the next gen Playstation system let alone next gen handheld. Love the live area stuff, proper full blown remote play, beautiful screen, all the control options in the world! Edited September 17, 2011 by flameboy
