    I'm up to stage 12 in Ninja Senki DX. Stage 12 is killing me. Fun game, but not 100% sure I'm going to be able to finish it, let alone get all the trophies. Actually I haven't gotten a single trophy yet!

    Unfortunately, not available in the UK except on the Limited Run physical copies but these are now about £80 on eBay.

    Bummer. That's a beyond stupid sales decision.

    Sometimes EU get later than the US and vice versa. UK will probably get a digital copy down the line. Limited Run Games have only produced physical on a couple of Vita games so far and they don't have many to sell.

    Unfortunately, some are buying purely to re-sell on eBay knowing they will make money.

    Sounds interesting, I'll definitely have to look into it. I used to love Mega Man when I was younger (still do!), so I'll check it out. Thanks for the recommendation.

    I managed to get a physical copy of Ar Nosurge, which I was glad because I really enjoyed the game. It's definitely not for everyone, so definitely don't go trying to get a physical copy. I imagine people hiked up the price on them. I really loved the game, but I feel like it is a game in which most people would dislike it. If you ever do try it out, let me know if you like it!

    I bought HF a good while ago. I played a little bit of it, and then realized there was an anime that took place before it. I figured I should watch it so I would have a clue what was going on in the game. I stopped playing and watched the anime (first anime I ever watched). Sadly I never got around to playing the game after that. I'll need to play it again sometime.

    See, I need to be like you. I need to stop buying games and play through my backlog. Sadly that isn't going to happen no matter how much I try. With all of these limited physical releases I can't just wait to pick up a copy later. Grrrrrr.

    I never played Oreshika, but when you refer to your offspring becoming uglier I hope you're referring to your offspring in the game and not your actual children. ;)

    I actually picked up Fallout 4 again recently. I bought it at release but stopped playing it for a while. I enjoyed the game also, even though it does have it faults.I didn't know they were adding a new survival mode, that was one of the things I was dissapointed that they never included. Is it something along the lines of New Vegas's mode?

    Glad to hear that you're doing well.

    I just picked up a physical copy of HyperDimension that was on sale the other day. I haven't gotten around to playing it yet but I'm glad you liked it. Actually, I think I picked up a digital version a while ago and playing a little bit of it. I think I remember the character's eyes and voices creeping me out. Maybe that was another game?

    I'm envious that you managed to beat 2 games in 2 days. Maybe I should hire you to clean up my backlog?

    Ha, glad you're enjoying FO4 so much. I enjoyed it quite a bit too, but was left disappointed by some aspects.Overall it was a very enjoyable game for me. I also liked salvaging parts for settlements, weapons, and armor.

    Hey Pluto, I missed harassing talking to you guys. Things were going on with my family but have seemed to gotten better. I hope you are doing well also.

    I managed to snag a copy this time, but missed the Breach and Clear one. I was working at the time that one went live. I would love to add it to my collection, but I don't think it's worth a couple hundred dollars.

    haha this is my year to make a difference. Across my PS4 and Vita, I've already beaten twelve games this year so far (Avg six games per month). If I somehow beat six games in March, I'll tie my entire 2015 TOTAL.

    and still won't make a dent in the backlog

    Those of you that are looking for a grip with L2 R2 buttons, this is the one. 1000 Vita owners in particular might wanna jump on this. No telling on how many of these grips will be produced for that model. I saw em as high as $100 recently on EBAY. Got mine preordered at the much more reasonable price from Play Asia.

    I'll post some impressions once I receive mine and give it some use.

    What I say and what I do are two different things, on trying not to buy anything until I complete some of my backlog :)

    Heh yes, in game character dies and you take over with your offspring, repeat to fade.

    Sounds a little different, is a full mode rather than being attached to a difficulty. Have to worry about food, water, sleep etc. Can only save when you sleep, can only sleep in a bed or one of the bedrolls you find around the place, no fast travel. Introducing an Adrenaline thing, do more damage when you've been awake awhile but suffer fatigue. Crippled limbs no longer auto repair after combat, disease needs proper treatment. Spawn refreshes are slower, ammo has weight. Enemies are do more damage but so do you.

    A lot of that is subject to change but should bring back the survival aspect.

    Also have a giant backlog of unfinished / not even started games. That didn't stop me from buying that shiny Far Cry Primal box yesterday :D

    Seriously, there are so many good games in various platforms nowadays that I gave up, I'll never be able to finish everything, that doesn't even bother me anymore. Also, many games are getting artificially long due to tacked-on modes and multiplayer so sometimes I just let them go.

    Haven't played Fallout 4 yet but this new Survival Mode to me looks too much hassle in a dozens / hundreds of hours game.

    Yeah I had grabbed FC Primal too, going for plat to get my money's worth. Survival Mode probably sounds scarier than it is, they haven't just made things harder, like the higher damage from both you and your enemy for example, avoiding the bullet sponge mentality seen in a lot of difficulties. I really enjoyed NV's take on it, and to be honest FO4 just felt a little too easy and didn't really have to manage my way around the world. It's more a mode for those who've completed the game and want it to feel a bit more rewarding I guess.

    Well I've purchased new iPhone 6S plus, the strongest iPhone ever but there is no good game to play i only know some but my Vita is still the best portable console with high quality games, People keep saying there is no game for Vita but in fact there is no Real game for iOS or mobiles. Anyway will "Samurai Warriors 4 Empires" be released this week?

    Day of The Tentacle coming in two weeks. Have so many fond memories of this game I'm afraid to play it again and be disappointed.

    Salt and Sanctuary finally has a release date! I thought I would never see the day. The release date is March 15th. Sadly, it's only for the PS4. They said PC is coming in summer and the PS Vita won't be until after the PC version. I wanted to play on my Vita... It is cross-buy from what I understand, so when it releases on Vita you won't have to buy another copy.

    How did you beat 12 games already!?! Gamer god over here. :p Out of curiosity, when do you consider a game beaten? When you beat the main story? When you platinum the game? Or when you do everything possible in the game? Whichever it is, that's still pretty amazing. I'm envious.

    I'll probably pass on the grip. I have the Slim version for my Final Fantasy Vita and it goes well with it. I don't think the 1000 grip will match my Soul Sacrifice Vita much. I don't even use my other grip much so there isn't really a need for me to purchase another one. Let me know how it is though.

    Yes? :D
    Seriously though, what's wrong?

    Ha, I always tell myself I need to stop buying games because I will never get to them. Yet I keep on buying...

    That mode sounds pretty interesting. I'm glad they added it but I think there will be some issues with it for me. Only being able to save when you sleep is going to be a huge issue for me. Seeing as the game crashes and freezes quite a bit, progress is going to be lost quite often. Then there is always that douche with a Fatman on some roof...

    The other issue for me is the no fast traveling. I think it could work, but I personally don't feel like trekking back and forth across the wasteland just to complete certain objectives. If you go with the Brotherhood you'll be okay thanks to the vertibirds, but what about all of the other factions. They need to add more alternative transportation options.

    Yeah other faster means of travel for other factions would be a good thing, because I've finished campaign I'm happy to walk it and take my time (but never mind fetch quests), can fully understand people not being super keen though.

    There's been a lot of talk on forums about doing toggle features, so hopefully they listen and people can play a style that suits them. Didn't NV survival feature kill fast travel too? Or am I imagining that.

    I mean, it's not like it's been loosing games, so if you like what it has it's worth getting. I think there are still some interesting looking upcomming games for the platform, but in the end your purchasing decision should probably be based around what it has now.

    Depends what type of games you are into ..........


    There are some great games on the Vita and some great games coming out of the East. Until I owned a Vita, I didn't really consider some of the Japanese games out there but they are bringing over some great titles.

    Personally, I love RPG's so the Vita is perfect for me with both current and old Psone titles - Final Fantasy games etc. Visual Novels and adventure are also catered for.

    It isn't one for FPS with Killzone being the only real decent title. There is also a severe lack of sports games.

    Personally I love my Vita but they are not for everyone.

    Agree with the sentiments here. Hot Shots Golf is a great title on the Vita. I wish there would be a great driving game but the RPGs, the arcade type games gives one a pretty near console experience on a hand held. Also happy with mine.
