Jeff Minter is going to develop TxK for Vita. It sounds like a riff on Tempest2K, though presumably not T2K due to licensing issues. In any case, holy crap. He's going to make me finally buy a Vita. Need to save my pennies! http://minotaurproject.co.uk/blog/?p=372
I know this might be annoy someone but seriously I am really upset about today's biggest gaming market is just total bs. DH4 by Gameloft is another those free games with iap bs. I mean wtf? All the things that iOS devs care about is money. Man this makes games bad as ea's iap in their game. I saddens me since iOS, mobile gaming is biggest handheld gaming market. And people are keep enjoying it. Seriously, can't remember last time I played games on my iPhone 4S. I can't believe people are okay with free games with iap obv targeting for your wallet, and they say too expensive for handheld gaming devices.
Won't really wait for Blackgate.. I mean, there's already way too much platformer in Vita with all the indie games this month. Will be excited if Arkham Origins itself will be ported, but yeah no chance. Still waiting for Soul Sacrifice too for this month, looks awesome.
Soul Sacrifice demo April 16th for NA, 17th for EU. http://blog.us.playstation.com/2013/04/12/soul-sacrifice-demo-april-12th-keiji-inafune-interview/
Depends on what you think is great: Tearaway Hotline Miami Muramasa Dragons Crown Ys IV Final Fantasy X - X-2(maybe) and hopefully soon: Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee New N' Tasty! Oddworld: Munch's Oddysee HD There's a lot of indie stuff coming as well that I'm forgetting. Also check your PS3's messages(for those of you that have PS3s), Sony has been messaging people their 10 dollar rewards for spending 50 bucks promotion. They should be going out in a email as well, don't know when.
It was already leaked that the next Assassins Creed game for the Vita will be called "Assassins Creed Rising Phoenix", there were some screenshots as well, but they don't show much and aren't verry impressive because they weren't meant to be released to the public and show a verry early version of the game. -~- Also, for anyone who hasn't bought Guacamelee yet, I made a gameplay video: Subscribe to the TouchArcade YouTube channel
Bought Guacamelee! Though I havent tried it yet. Also used my $20 from SONY to help pay for Atelier Totori Plus. Man that 32GB came right on time
Guacamelee looks fun, not my type of game though :/ Also, finally got my reward ($20 also), thinking of saving up for Soul Sacrifice. Or bought some costumes for DOA5+, argh the temptation..
Everyone with an interest in Metroidvania games should buy Guacamelee! ASAP, it's great. Be warned though that, while being easy most of the time, it has a few Mega-Man-hard platforming and bosses.
Bought Guacamelee with my money back from Sony. Haven't played it yet- have some other stuff I want to finish first, and I need to free up some space on my memory card.
I bought DJ Max Technika Tune, man I'm not good at this game. Looking forward to Dragon Fantasy next week. Just wanted to post my list of games I have for the Vita (it's kinda long) This is what I have: Virtues Last Reward Ridge Racer Wipeout 2048 Rayman Origins AC III Liberation NFS Most Wanted Madden NFL 13 Smart As Uncharted Modnation Racers Call of Duty:BLOPS Unit 13 Sonic Transformed LittleBigPlanet Hot Shots Golf Gravity Rush Playstation All Stars Mutant Blobs Attack Rocketbirds New Little Kings Story Retro City Rampage Jet Set Radio Ninja Gaiden Disgaea 3 Stardrone Extreme When Vikings Attack Oddworld: Strangers Wrath Super Stardust Hustle Kings Dokuro Pinball Arcade Plants Vs. Zombies Pure Chess Urban Trial Jetpack Joyride Sine Mora Knytt Underground Foosball EDF 2017 Sound Shapes Guacamelee! Nun Attack Machinarium DJ Max Technika Tune PS Mobile: Rebel Surge Switch Galaxy Super Crate Box Life of Pixel Had, but sold: Virtua Tennis Mortal Kombat Touch my Katamari Ultimate Marvel Vs Capcom 3 If only the Vita had games
I wish I had that much money to get all those games. I would actually play my vita everytime if I had all those games
This might be a common question, but does anyone know what the hell the deal is with Minster Hunter and Vita? :/
Monster hunter portable 3rd (which was psp game) was supposed to get ported to NA along with the monster hunter portable 3rd HD (ps3 version). But Capcom got pissed off about how Sony asked for trophy support for ps3 version of the game. That's when Sony and Capcom's business relationship starts to going downhill. And after that got canceled, Nintendo made a contract about monster hunter series only on Nintendo platform until 2014 or 2015. And Sony never gave Capcom that much money to monster hunter series, where Nintendo is dumping all the funds to monster hunter games. That's why Capcom ditched Sony platform. It's kinda sad to see this movement, because I still play monster hunter portable 3rd on my psp go, and graphics looks really good even though it does not have real time shadows and less work on textures compare to 3ds version of monster hunter 3 ultimate. Since monster hunter 4's graphic isn't impressive, and lack of second stick on 3ds, I really don't think monster hunter is the game for 3ds. But Capcom just wants more money so yeah
Well, the Nintendo-Capcom Monster Hunter contract is just a rumor. It has yet to be confirmed. Also, it wasn't just that Sony asked if Capcom would add trophies to the localized version of Portable 3rd HD that made them mad- that was just a minor thing. It was the fact that SCEA was unwilling to update the adhoc Party app in order for Portable 3rd HD's multiplayer to work, and instead wanted Capcom to add their own solution to the game for multiplayer. There's also the fact that Capcom has a history of passing up more powerful consoles in favor of the less powerful console (with cheaper development costs) when it comes to Monster Hunter. All the MH games on the HD consoles have been ports of games from lesser platforms.
Exactly. They realized they could spend small amount of money and make same monster hunter game that looks tiny bit different and make so much money. And since now they are working on 3ds, they have less problem with making games looks really good. I think if they made monster hunter for the vita, it will cost a lot more than 3ds costs. It's all about money man
Didn't see anything on the lat few pages so thought I would ask: anyone have any info on whether the Vita will ever see the dlc packs for Need For Speed Most Wanted? I wore out the game on my Vita the few months before Christmas, and have been playing the dlc packs on my Ps3 - but would so love these cars and the airport on the Vita too! I just realized tonight that these extra packs have more than 5 races per car which the original game had - plus, there are extra car parts to earn for each car (not sure if it is just the dlc cars or added to all though): jump nitrous, ramming body, drift tires.
C'mon Sony, hurry up! Update PSN already! I NEED THE SOUL SACRIFICE DEMO NOW!!! Seriously, why can't they just update at a set time, like 12PM every Tuesday or something? Random updates suck...
