Got my 64GB card yesterday and have spent the night/day downloading all the PS+ stuff that i never really downloaded, it's so much better with the 64GB.

Is there any point in keeping my 16GB card or should i sell it?? Is it quite manageable to run with two different memory cards and swap them as needed? So i could keep some games on the 16GB just to have around?

Well, if you're not worried about having all your gaming on a single user account, you could always subscribe to PS+ with another account as a US or JP one, and use the 16gb card for that.
 
Any one played through mgs peace walker (or 2 and 3) on vita? Having played ground zeroes im in the mood for more

*just looked up to see someone is doing the same! Durp!

Either way are the vita versions decent or should i go ps3?

The controls for mgs 2/3 on vita were too hard for me ie. camera and aiming. I find portable consoles are great for 2d/isometric jrpgs or anything isometric/2d but when you go full on first person or 3rdp erson 3d the analogue nubs suck hard.

Vita versions of mgs 2 and 3 are equal to the console versions.

I have no issues with the controls at all, i think they work just as good as if i was using a console control.

Whats the cheapest anyone has seen Final Fantasy X HD for?

i got it for £24.99 from shopto and its a bundle of FFX and X-2 so if you plan on playing both dont go used, to be fair it will work out at around 50p per hour just for FFX plus the resale value, if you just want FFX look used as X-2 is digital only

Is it worth picking up a Vita? the only game I'd want for it so far is FFX/X2 and MGS HD collection.

I would say definitely, they are fantastic.

I have more games than I can remember (thanks to ps+), but other games I would recommend include:

Persona4 golden (jrpg)
Rayman (looks amazing on the vita and is arguably the definitive version along with wii u as the game was designed with some touch control elements)
Uncharted
Hotline miami (for some reason the game seems even better on the vita)
Tearaway
Killzone (i have not played yet but it supposed to be great)

I think I am correct in saying the vita plays all the psp games as well, so there is quite a library to work through.

To summarise the vita strengths are it has decent controls and a fantastic screen. Software strengths:
Great for jrpgs
Some decent exclusives (Uncharted, Tearaway, gravity rush. wipout 2048, killzone mercenary, soul sacrifice)
Great for indie games: Hotline miami, spelunky, limbo, fez, guacamalee etc. Many of these just seem more suited to playing on a handheld
Some decent cross platform games; walking dead, sonic all star racing transformed, metal gear hd, borderlands 2 is coming soon

i am sure others in this thread could fill it in more, i have just gone through the games i own for the above

In follow up to my question above about the trigger grip, has anyone used the HORI grip, and is it any good?
Any with both the HORI and PDP compare the two?

I've got the Hori grip, it does make holding the Vita easier and more comfortable, but the top triggers are still a bit of a pain as the grip doesn't enhance them in any way, and the extending "palm rests" have a tendency to get pushed back up. Reaching the rear touch pad is also slightly harder.

Also it will mean your Vita doesn't fit in most cases unless you detach the grip, so only really recommended if you are playing in one location all the time.
 
I have the Konig easygrip, it is excellent. Makes the vita much more comfortable to hold. When I was looking it was difficult to get hold of, I ended up getting one in the mm.
 
Thanks, looks like its virtually impossible to find that in stock anywhere now. Looks like the 'assist' grip is the most similar to that.
