bryanee Posted September 17, 2011 Posted September 17, 2011 Pffft I wont be impressed until it can make me a cheese toastie.
Debug Mode Posted September 20, 2011 Posted September 20, 2011 3DS is already dead. As soon as it gets a Phantasy Star title and a keyboard attachment, my 3DS can get fucked. Well, until the next big game comes out for it of course, but the point is still valid.
Derrick Posted September 20, 2011 Posted September 20, 2011 Can't wait to play the Vita while eating a cheesy Pita.
Aimless Posted September 20, 2011 Posted September 20, 2011 The 3DS will be fine, despite the recent doom and gloom. Ultimately it's still a machine with MH4, Mario Kart and Pokémon on side; Nintendo will need to blow off a few more toes to screw things up completely. Anyway, here's a demonstration of Vita's in-development AR features, which are pretty impressive. (Skip to about 1:50.)
Daft Posted September 20, 2011 Posted September 20, 2011 Anyone else find the alien bit freaky as fuck? I feel like I need a Trauma Center game for Vita now.
Agent Gibbs Posted September 20, 2011 Posted September 20, 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... Last two, no. I've played Uncharted and found it massively over-rated The second one I feel exactly the same as you, nothing is appealing to me, apart from FFX but i can just put that in my PS3 so... And yeah uncharted, played it at my mates, watched him play the second and just thought MEH tomb raider clone. I'm still planning on buying them for my PS3 when i get round to it, they just aren't "must have games" for me Stardust gets boring very quickly. I don't see where all this love for it comes from. Same here, wish i'd not wasted so much buying everything for it, played it for a few weeks then i haven't since I honestly think the vita will suffer similar to the 3DS have 1/2 good launch games, then be months before anything decent comes out. Can't say i'm impressed with battery life especially after all Sony's show boating about how it would be better than the 3DS and they had aimed to ave good battery life! I got flamed to hell on another forum for saying i can only see it having the same as if not worse than the 3DS with its power hungry specifications, and now look at this! a hollow victory i'd have loved to be wrong I also think pricing is wrong, fair enough i except the similar price to a launch 3DS given its spec's its actually quite good. BUT Nobody wanted the 3DS at that price, and then to go an not only not include a memory card, but make it use propriety memory formats only which aren't cheap, then provide loads of other accessories at a large sony style cost too i'll use Dollars since i can't find EU prices, even these may be just a Yen conversion from the site the vita is $250 Cradle is $35 lowest Memory card 4GB $30 so that is $315 to get the same package as a 3DS without a game so you start adding larger memory cards, cases, and games (which nobody knows pricing of yet it seems) then the cost is becoming hugely more than a home console, something quite a lot of media outlets slated the 3DS for (being so close in price) Its a recession i just think its generally a bad year for gaming, and having so many extras and a lack of pack ins is not going to help it, and i'm sure there are people like me who are hurt over buying the 3DS (and psp before it) on launch day who won't be buying until the Vita has been out some time. that was all doom and gloom wasn't it? I hope both 3DS and Vita do well, having some jrpg's on it will be good, the region free aspect is a huge selling point for me.
Magnus Posted September 20, 2011 Posted September 20, 2011 And yeah uncharted, played it at my mates, watched him play the second and just thought MEH tomb raider clone. I'm still planning on buying them for my PS3 when i get round to it, they just aren't "must have games" for me Hahaha, there's so much wrong with this statement. Unless your plan was to rip out ReZ's heart and stomp on it, in which case, mission accomplished.
Daft Posted September 20, 2011 Posted September 20, 2011 I saw my friend playing Gears of War 3 and though MEH winback 64 clone.
Agent Gibbs Posted September 20, 2011 Posted September 20, 2011 Hahaha, there's so much wrong with this statement. Unless your plan was to rip out ReZ's heart and stomp on it, in which case, mission accomplished. :p knew that comment would get a reaction, it wasn't aimed for a reaction from any one person though i just played to the crowed with it, The only honest bit was i don't see it as a must have game, you see I don't use my ps3 so never bought uncharted, that said from what i've seen it does look good.
Grazza Posted September 20, 2011 Posted September 20, 2011 I've never known why people like to take sides with consoles and handhelds. 3DS will have brilliant games. Vita will have brilliant games. Both will be well worth owning.

Both will be well worth owning. having two successful hand-held's drives competition between the two increasing quality between the games on each and driving down prices (in theory)

I'm still planning on buying them for my PS3 when i get round to it, they just aren't "must have games" for me. Dy'wanna slap boy? Jkz. But....yeah. Uncharted 2 is the best game of all time, it has everything....everything you could possibly want from an epic OTT adventure game. The opening level is you hanging off of a train in a snow filled world, climbing up it on your way to safety. If you just saw a random "jumping up a building" or whatever bit, then I can understand "not getting it", but the controls are amazing, and there really is rarely a dull moment....so actually I take it back, I cannot understand "not getting it". :p Same here, wish i'd not wasted so much buying everything for it, played it for a few weeks then i haven't since Are there really that many games that you play after a few weeks though? I think Stardust is great, it has a great arcade feel and is a very fun pick up and play game.
Daft Posted September 20, 2011 Posted September 20, 2011 SSHD is beautiful. The trophies in that game are stunning. I still remember getting the Late Bloomer one. A highlight in my gaming history. Zen gaming at its purest.
ReZourceman Posted September 20, 2011 Posted September 20, 2011 I agree with Choze. *Faints* But yes. Lol. Daft came round my house the other day. I asked him to do the Late Boomer trophy and I was met with laughter.
Daft Posted September 20, 2011 Posted September 20, 2011 It hasn't happy laughter, it was the laughter of trauma. Beautiful trauma. I'll give it a go next time. I wish there were more trophies.
ReZourceman Posted September 21, 2011 Posted September 21, 2011 But the new one will have trophies! Trophies on the go! I am actually......geez. I am god damn pumped about the Vita now. Do we have a release date? Wanna pre-order this shit up.
flameboy Posted September 21, 2011 Posted September 21, 2011 But the new one will have trophies! Trophies on the go! I am actually......geez. I am god damn pumped about the Vita now. Do we have a release date? Wanna pre-order this shit up. No date yet just early 2012. Places taking preorders though.
flameboy Posted September 21, 2011 Posted September 21, 2011 Buying Vita for trophies is silly. Dont be a trophy addict. I would say the online features are insane though. Its like the best of steam, Live, PSN with tons of new stuff and multi tasking apps. Glimpse into the future. Very true. I do genuinely feel this has the potential to go above and beyond anything any console currently offers.
The Lillster Posted September 21, 2011 Posted September 21, 2011 (edited) With regards to my '3DS is already dead comment', I wasn't being serious. going by the recent Japan sales (they're actually up this week for 3DS HW), maybe the 3DS will ascend to heaven after all. I've sold my 3DS now, as I never use it. Hopefully Vita is worth the money. Edited October 13, 2011 by The Lillster
Hero-of-Time Posted October 19, 2011 Posted October 19, 2011 (edited) Release date for both EU and the US is 22nd Feb 2012. http://playstation-email.com/v?xnPWcvnEHWHPncvlnlJq Edited October 19, 2011 by Hero-of-Time

flameboy Posted October 19, 2011 Posted October 19, 2011 Defintely getting this although may hold off a couple of months and wait and see if other companies bring out the stupid propeitary memory cards as not paying premium price for them. or failing that wait for the inevitable micro sd adaptor.
