***** PlayStation Vita Official Thread *****

mines still "Processing in warehouse" I hope it comes tomorrow though. Play have always been slow for me on updating though.

I had a CD I bought from them I recieved it while it was still "Processing in warehouse" lol two days after I already had the CD they finally sent me an email saying it has been dispatched lol.
 
I'm not sure I understand the appeal behind the digital downloads.

a) You need a massive, proprietary, expensive memory card to store them.
b) You can't resell them.

Besides the very slightly reduced price, why would anyone go for them over a physical copy?

Yes you can. If they are cartridges then you can play them on ANY region PSN account however note that DLC may not work as it will likly be tied to the region the game is from. If the game is a download then you can play any region on any Vita but you have to use a PSN account for that region. EG, if you want to play Japanese games you need to use a Japanese PSN account.

Great, going to start ordering some games from Play Asia then :D

Thanks mate.
Also what are the languages like on them? I remember on the JAP Dreamcast I had some games were English and some full on Japanese.

Convenience/laziness? I know I hate carrying and fiddling around changing multiple cards on the go!

You don't need a massive card though. Just transfer the game from the Vita to your PS3 or PC and suddenly you have free space to put something else on. An 8GB card for example (the one most are getting free) will hold Uncharted, Wipeout and 3 PSN games.

Plenty of people never sell games on. I see them as the same as BluRays, I keep them. So with digital you have the convenience that you can always have it with you if you particularly want to and it cant break or get lost.

Digital IS the future of distribution. Retailers are going to fight tooth and nail to stop it though.

Fair enough :) Seems like 8GB is a fairly decent amount of storage then. I very seldom play or watch things twice, so having the opportunity to sell something and buy something new appeals a lot.

Time to sell the X360 and DS for one of these methinks.

Well I went with Fifa, I know you can go head to head with friends but can you play it online against randoms?

You can either go into a lobby and setup a game against randoms or play ranked H2H with randoms (Quick start).

There was only 50ppl on last night but probably due to most people getting theres today/tomorrow.
 
got mine from a town near birmingham called old hill, little self owned store usually releases stuff early. 01384569040 is the number. im from the uk.
 
I've also just noticed from that price list that the addon for Super Stardust is very cheap. In the US it's like $8 and it's £2.40.

Damn you SCEE!

Sweet mate thanks :) Looking forward to that, hopefully I'm better on the PSV than the 360 version :D
 
I just downloaded that Media Go its a pretty nice bit of software I guess for browsing the PSN store.

I really wish that Kingdom of Hearts Birth by Sleep was avaliable to download tho :( I never got around to play that on the PSP and would love to have played it on PSvita
 
Was hoping the psn prices for retail would be a bit cheaper! I love incharted series but wont spend £40 on it just yet! Instead im going for Stardust, Tales from Space, and Motorstorm!

All 3 very well priced and are getting the highest scores soo far i believe!

I hope no one buys dungeon hunter for £29.99! Thats crazy for what it is/started off as and what it costs on ps3!

Only played the original on ios but its nothing worth spending out on imo
