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

Mine still doesnt say dispatched :( I hope it will be dispatched today. I can't wait to get some play time on Marvel v Capcom 3 tbh. I'm hoping there will be a good online community for it.
 
I am going to try a cheeky in Morrisons today and try to collect my preorder :) all the staff on the CS desk are well not very bright (in a nice way) so just going to play dumb and say I got date wrong :)

Of course it probably wont work, but you never know!!
 
well got Uncharted today - dispatched yesterday, my order still awaiting dispatch for wifi vita and two other games, 16meg card still say's on pre-order. Looks like i'll be staring at Uncharted for a week, lol, before i can even play!

DBT will Asda have them in store? Or is that the online price (sorry I cant check at the moment!)

Well they will be selling the Vita in store for £193 I think so I imagine they'll also have other bits. That price is online though. Can't imagine it'll be any different in store tbh, Supermarkets gouge the price on launch stuff like this as it drives other business.

I've ripped a Southpark episode into 2 different quality settings (RF10 and RF20) using handbrake and am now doing the same with an episode of Game of Thrones. Will see which is better.

For anyone wanting to do the same, you'll need something like Handbrake, set the video format to MP4, resolution to either 720 or the Vitas native of 960x544 and the codec as H.264. Should work perfectly. Then all you need to choose is your quality setting. RF 20 took a 600MB South Park episode and turned it into a 96MB file and looks ok. RF 10 made it 280MB. EDIT: I'm struggling to see a difference on these two files blown up on my 24" 1080 monitor. I reckon the RF20 will look fine on the Vita.

I'd hazard a guess that with something like Southpark where you have large areas of flat colour, you won't see as much difference compression wise as you with live action video.

I've done the same with Thrones and am still struggling. There is a difference there but I'm blowing it up 4x larger than the native res.

In addition, RF10 made the Thrones 3gb when the original is just 2.5gb. RF20 made it 600mb.

I'll test em all out tomorrow anyway.
