Hey Guest. Check out your NeoGAF Wrapped 2025 results here!
PlayStation Network Thread (Vita/PS3/PS4/PSP) | February 2014
- Thread starter kassatsu
- Start date
did I miss something? have there been hints to this?
Vita. Portability ftw.
Good to see everyone is starting to see the light now.
I want to say Lazy Devs, but it's a trade off thing. Though I would prefer native res for everything and at least a solid 30, despite any and all tradeofffs that result from it..
What? Valve often does sales where the current sale price isn't the lowest price said game has ever been at.

Technical problems plague Malicious Rebirth -- if you have the PS3 version, you can use that as a comparison to imagine how the game plays on vita.

Who got banned? Got scared for a moment when I read that. Thought it was me.

VK3 is...bad. Really ugly, endless grinding, crappy save system. You can definitely spend your money better elsewhere.
From what I remember (which, I'll be honest, meant going back and reading the review I wrote a few months ago), Castlestorm was so-so. The idea was fun, but the execution of it left a lot to be desired.
And Stick It to the Man was a lot of fun. Some people dislike the controls, but I really liked its sense of humour.

We're probably getting Papers, Please on the Vita!

I just finished Tearaway. Why do my tears don't stop flowing?
I think I have to buy another copy of it now. Dem feels.

Unfortunately not, haha
Hopefully you'll remember my name at least lol
So you still carry fear in your heart. All according to the mods plans.
I'm not in love with the sales for this week. Especially since I need to save my Wallet money for FFX HD.

That's great news. Day 1!
I would buy that on the Vita. just make sure it launches with PS+ (making it like 7.49USD or something) but oh well lol doubt the pricing would be this good
Yeah, about a year ago Shahid took to Twitter and demanded someone get him the Twitter Handle of the creator. I always knew it was going to come to Vita, but it's frustrating that apparently the porting process hasn't even started yet.
I'd rather he himself do the port since he can figure all that stuff out most accurately. But, I'm sure Curve would love to do it otherwise. It's not like he's doing anything important right now
You can never have enough copies of a fantastic game.
Awesome!

I'm not sure how enjoyable it would be on the touch screen. Are you guys familiar with the pc version? It's pretty heavy point&click-wise
Cross-buy is not supported by any developer that is not an indie or Sony. So you should never het your hopes high for big third parties to embrace it.
As for FFX, Vita all the way for me. I can't imagine myself playing an RPG nowadays if it is not on portable form.
Plus, that OLED of course.
I have the Japanese Vita version and it looks great. Yes, it's not native-res but the visuals are vastly improved from the original. And don't forget that on PS3 the game runs at 720p iirc, so its not full HD either.
Completely agree. The suspend feature is like a godsend, especially for RPGs. I can grind the whole day just about anywhere and stop and restart at any time I want.
It's a great place to start with the FF series. Once you are done with it and fall in love with the series though
(yes, you WILL love it)
Pretty much this. I read somewhere that with some Vita games, making them native res and run at 60fps, while possible, might cause overheating and/or extremely fast battery consumption. So developers sometimes have to make sacrifices in order to deliver the best portable experience.
With FFX I don't mind though, the game is not native res but it is at least the same resolution as Uncharted, and it looks just as good or even better. And since it is an RPG, I don't mind it being 30fps either.
Haven't played it and I remember there was a lot of talk before about how it would work on the Vita, but if they could get it on decently I'd give it a try with how popular the game is (which is kinda surprising just from brief looks). Although it's probably going to make you feel shitty rejecting decent people (for immigration).
I'll reserve judgement for now - the touchscreen stuff is probably my least favourite aspect of the Vita as a machine.
Other platforms? :S
pretty done

Really? I asked in the last thread on the game and someone told me it was 1080p :|
Might as well save my money and play em on PCSX2. Saying it looks as good as Uncharted spinoff is not exactly enticing me to get the Vita version. That game looked like a jaggy mess.
I read up a bit on 999 and started Virtue's Last Reward over the weekend. The story is interesting so far, but the controls are incredibly frustrating. The touchscreen camera controls are inverted and have some sort of momentum to them. Alternatively, you can use the analog stick to move the cursor and camera, but if you want to rotate the camera using the stick, you have to first move the cursor to the edge of the screen. Why couldn't they just make one analog stick for controlling the camera and the other for controlling the cursor? Why aren't there settings to un-invert the camera controls and change camera sensitivity? And why does it take so many steps just to use an item?
I'll continue playing VLR for the story, but if ZE3 ever happens (seems unlikely at the moment), Chunsoft really needs to fix up some of the controls and menus.

Being serious now, Luminous Arc was a good DS game.
Arc Rise was ok
BRS & Time and Eternity was horrendous though

I'll admit that I haven't played it yet, but there have been enough good PC-to-Vita ports that I'm willing to give this one the benefit of the doubt, too. As someone else said, I'm sure Curve could do a fine job with it.

I don't know, I think you could definitely do some cool stuff with the touchscreen/touchpad. Since I actually never played the original, I'm definitely interested.

I wonder if Gust could release an Atelier Iris 1-3, Mana Khemia 1-2 and Ar Tonelico 1-2. HD collection.... I would do anything to play them in HD or in Vita... I played them so much on the PS2 that Gust was one of my favorite developers back then.
I miss 2D RPG turn based games....
While you're at it please do a .Hack// and .Hack// G.U. HD collection too CC and Bandai Namco!
Sony could do a little Dark Cloud collection too!
Wow.

It's nice to dream.
Then again Sega put Jet Set Radio on Vita so who knows, if they ever do another batch of Dreamcast HD remasters we might get lucky and get a Vita port for it.
Both of these are probably not going to happen ;_;
Same here and agreed completely. I used to enjoy browsing the blog, now it's a chore with the new design.

It's got some minor slowdown when the action get heavy. But with all the recent updates, and cross play with the PS3 it's great, I got the Plat on the vita version.

yusss
except now I want to stop playing it on Steam and wait for the Vita version. That game really resonates with me. I would love to meet Lucas Pope for some reason.
With all the patches, the Vita performance is now on par to the PS3 version. The Vita version improved greatly since launch.
Using the touchscreen for item searching and opening chests worth the price of admission.
No idea
Both versions are going to be $6. http://blog.us.playstation.com/2014/02/24/ps-plus-modnation-racers-road-trip-free-for-members/
Hope it's not a typo. ;_; It also says the original price is $10 even though it's $15. It might be more than $6 once they realize that mistake
Yeah the item inventory sucks. You can move the camera with the L and R buttons too, which is what I've been doing.
I'm not sure about the console resolution stuff. It might well be 1080p, but I'm almost sure I read somewhere that was not the case.
If that's all you care about though, you should just emulate the game on your PC as you suggest and just stay away from any of the console entries. I'm more hyped about the additional stuff of the games: Upgraded (not just up-res) textures, new sphere grid, native widescreen support, trophies, Eternal Calm, Last Mission, Dark Aeons, Penance. All of that in a game that looks substantially better than the original and that I can take anywhere.
Also, perhaps the U:GA comparison was not the best. That game is definitely jaggy, which is something I don't see with FFX. You should check some videos on YouTube, those should give you at least an idea of how the game looks on Vita.

Since I have to buy Hatsune Miku by the 4th with all the DLCs needed for it, I think I'll only get Hotline Miami + Machinarium to make it under my budget (50$). I would only overshoot it by .21 cents but thank God I still have a few cents to cope with that.
Has anyone purchased Machinarium before? Any impressions of the game?

Shattered dreams:
Backup any save data on your Vita to your PC through Content Manager. Then do a reset of your card and Vita to login to your Japanese account.
Have you tried buying the demo on the webstore, and then looking through your download list?
SC will be out sometime this year. I doubt TC ever comes out on PSN.
In don't know which hurts more:
- The fact that the Skies of Arcadia port was already in development.
- The fact that we could have gotten a SoA port that was soooo good, since the JSR port on Vita and PS3 was amazing.
- The fact Sega made the brilliant call to judge potential sales of two of their most important franchises (SoA and Shenmue) based just on sales of JSR and Nights.
Still, hope lives.
Skies of Arcadia Vita HD on Kickstarter once they drop the trademark.
