drahkon Posted April 7, 2012 Posted April 7, 2012 I've always wanted to get a Disgaea game and the Vita installment will be mine when it's released. Especially since all the DLC from the PS3 version seems to come with it.
The Bard Posted April 7, 2012 Posted April 7, 2012 Ah excellent. I don't think I'll be able to afford it straight away, but I'll definitely get it in early May when I get my finances in order. Need to check if there's any online play first though...
drahkon Posted April 7, 2012 Posted April 7, 2012 Playing PS3 and the Vita being just next to me makes me wonder: Wasn't there some talk about the PSV being able to stream PS3 games?
Domstercool Posted April 7, 2012 Posted April 7, 2012 Who is getting Disgaea 3? ME! Looking forward to an epic sized Vita game.
ReZourceman Posted April 7, 2012 Posted April 7, 2012 Pffft. Noooo. Its an awesomely funny and off the wall, but COHERENT turn based strategy JRPG. However, to say that is to do it a misjustice. I like to refer to it as; Multi-Coloured squared, highly customisable Chess on steroids.
Cube Posted April 7, 2012 Posted April 7, 2012 Multi-Coloured squared, highly customisable Chess on steroids. Advance Wars?
Magnus Posted April 7, 2012 Posted April 7, 2012 I really need to play Disgaea, but I have another four SRPGs on the PSP to play too, and I'm just not ready to commit the time to playing them right now.
Sheikah Posted April 7, 2012 Posted April 7, 2012 Is the Disgaea game coming to Vita not just the PS3 game Disgaea 3 with some extras?
Magnus Posted April 7, 2012 Posted April 7, 2012 (edited) It is, but I think ReZ has been waiting for the handheld version rather than playing it on the PS3. Disgaea always felt more like a handheld game to me, too. Edit: Or maybe he's already played it on the PS3 and is just a huge fan. Edited April 7, 2012 by Magnus
Caris Posted April 7, 2012 Posted April 7, 2012 Any shops (not online) got any good deals on at the minute on Wi-Fi consoles?
Aneres11 Posted April 7, 2012 Author Posted April 7, 2012 Any shops (not online) got any good deals on at the minute on Wi-Fi consoles? I'm selling my wi-fi model in the for sale / bargains thread if interested! Shameless plug there :p
Aimless Posted April 7, 2012 Posted April 7, 2012 Best I know of is HMV, which is £220 with either Golden Abyss, FIFA or Rayman. You can pick up a unit by itself for £180 from Zavvi's eBay outlet, though. I know you specified "not online", but it's where you're going to get the best prices.
ReZourceman Posted April 7, 2012 Posted April 7, 2012 Yeah I got about 5 minutes in on the PS3 but it just wasn't right.
Sheikah Posted April 7, 2012 Posted April 7, 2012 I liked Disgaea 3 but it felt like they had put such little effort into it. Everything looked stretched and bland, like an early PS2 game port.
Sheikah Posted April 7, 2012 Posted April 7, 2012 If it's what I think you mean by grid battles (tiles you move to like FF tactics) then yeah. It's...decent. Personally I preferred FF Tactics Advance to Disgaea 3 by a country mile, which had a story I actually cared about and pretty sweet jobs. If you like taking games to the extreme though Disgaea is for you. You can reach L9999 (in seconds to minutes once you get a statistician setup), it's crazy.
Happenstance Posted April 7, 2012 Posted April 7, 2012 Yeah thats what I meant. Probably wont be getting it, ive never liked games with those kind of systems.
Sheikah Posted April 8, 2012 Posted April 8, 2012 Don't know if they were in earlier titles, but statisticians among others are these characters that you defeat and slap on a piece of equipment. The more you have on the greater the EXP multiplayer from defeating enemies. Then there was this one map that you could replay that had a 3x3 grid of enemies, so you used some attack (I forget which now) that takes out the full grid at once. L9999 in seconds-minutes when you pass the equipment around your characters. Kinda makes the game easy though.
dazzybee Posted April 11, 2012 Posted April 11, 2012 Wipeout came today. Had a quick blast. God the load times were horrendous but what a game. Did the update, hasn't made as much of a dent into the load times as I'd wished. Does online play hold up pretty well on this? Always loved wipe-out games and was slightly put off by some reviews on it but glad I buckled. Can't wait for the HD and Fury DLC, when's that out?! Played a bit more of this. Dne the 2048 championship. Really liking the game but he load times are killing some of the fun for me, they're ridiculous. But the actual game is great fun. What I am disappointed with though, and this may change, is the multiplayer. Again, takes ages for anything to happen and you don't get to choose anything. And combat mutiplayer is one of the most unfun game modes I've experienced, yet EVERYONE loves it. That's all anyone picks, I had to switch it off. I can't bare to play it, if people raced around like in single player it'd be okay, but people seem to stick to one bit of the trai where weapons are and go apeshit. Also, it says it automatically connects you to your friends... Does this actually work? I can see it being almost impossible to get proper games on the go with friends... I was hoping you could create your own lobbies and such...
