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

I see that Zavvi have Army Corps of Hell for 15quid. I've had a look at reviews doesnt seem rated well. But the videos of it look pretty fun.

Anyone got it ? personal thoughts ?

They also have F1 for 19.99 too in case anyone is after it :)

Hnnnng, just had a tough game of Fifa online games was at 1-1 and I scored in the 88th minute.

"Your connection has been lost. "

I swear some people are complete ********.
 
Had a play with one in my local, Game.
I Really like it, glad I ordered one..

Nice in my hands, an the screen is big an great contrast. 3G version was well weighted.
Think it's a little big, going to be difficult to stuff in coat pocket.
Role on the new games.

Wasn't impressed by Games offers, an the store I visited was out of memory cards..
Poor sales guy, really bodged the sale without any cards.. lol

I tempted to pick up F1 and Army Corps, while F1 as mixed views on if its a bad 3DS port, from the newest videos I've seen its looked pretty good
 
I'm not a big fan of racing games so il prob skip F1. But I am tempted by Army Corps, looks a fun game :p

Oh also loving Marvel V Capcom 3, such a fun game. DEADPOOL RULEZ !!!! :p
 
Had a mission trading two trade in 2 Vitas games for Utimate Marvel Vs Capcom 3 because many wasn't stock Vita games at all. Found the only copy in a Game store miles away from where I was hoping to go.
 
Hey DBT did you messages on the PSV? I feel the messaging system is a bit clumsy on this thing... not sure Im using it right lol.

I did mate and I sent one back. I missed the first one you sent as I've grown in popularity since Wednesday lol

can the 3G only be used for downloading demos/games/patches etc ? wondering if there's any real reason to go for a 3G version
also, do you have to sign up for a contract or put credit on the sim card ?

You cannot download any file larger than 20MB over 3G. So some apps and small patches will be fine as well any games that just send small bits of data for a-syncronous gaming like HotShots. It's not contract based, you just top up as much as you want, and you can use any provider you like.

You can use contracts or a PAYG sim with it, TBH I was gamming on a 3G connection last year and it was fine, so I don't see why that can't allow online gaming on it

Another bonus is you get Wipeout 2048 for £5 with the 3G one

3G is ok for some games in some situations. You cannot play COD over a 3G connection if you are on the train. That is why they have disabled it, it would be a PR and customer service nightmare if they told you you could play COD or Fifa over 3G and it kept dropping out due to massive lag spikes which happen over 3G.

Gaming over 3G when you have a stable connection can be fine, but when moving it's just not good enough and would cause more problems for Sony and gamers that it's worth

I just looked up the specs of this thing, 512MB of ram and and 128mb of vram

why arent portable gaming devices up to 2GB of ram yet? they really seem to be lacking behind, when you consider that the average PC has at least 3GB of ram. Hell the PS3 only has 256MB of ram, shouldn't it be competing with PC's?

*waits for the obvious RAM isn't everything replies*

With respect, the PS3 and Xbox360 only have 512 mb of total ram. Clearly you don't need 3gb on a portable if you don;t need it on a console.

Why make an obviously flawed point and then saiy "waits for obvious reply"

Your phone might have 1gb of ram in it, but games only get access to about 10% of it. The Vita games get access to a much larger amount of ram by comparison.

I bought Gran Turismo PSP from the PS Store, would I be able to download and play this on the Vita?

Yes. I don't know if its in the Vita store but if not you can just download it on a PS3 if you have one and transfer it over.

Any missing games from the Vita PSP store are being added.
 
How long you think it will take before it gets hacked to run homebrew apps? VLC would be nice on the Vita

Apparently it's already hacked for home brew through an exploit of a psp game that's on the store. No word yet on release but I think it will be soon.
 
Is it me....but has Unit 13 been removed from the store? I downloaded the demo the other day and decided was going to get it...gone back on the store and can't find it, even when I manually search.

It was bugged and was causing crashes and other issues including people not being able to uninstall it, if anyone still has the demo around it would be a good idea to get rid of it asap.
 
Hmmm dont know wether to get wipeout or not!, how is everyone getting on with it? Does it seem lengthy/challenging?

Hows the online?

Or do i get a fighting game even though im not a big fan of them!

Got £10 psn voucher to spend towards it and already have the essential psn titles!

Cheers
 
Does eveyone seem to get disconnected from psn all the time without realising it? Does it disconnect us in standby or something? Just seems like it always has to connect!

Pretty sure it disconnects the wifi to save on battery power, the only annoying thing is you don't get wifi back until you use an app/game that needs wifi again.
