Grainger games have the new Super Monkey Ball Banana Splitz game on pre-order at the moment for £14.99. It looks quite good for once.

Holland doesn't have Mobile yet.

WHAT!? Is our money not good enough for Sony? I'd love to try that Twisted Pilot game if it's really like Kuru Kuru Kururin.

Banana Splitz is a return to form for the Super Monkey Ball series, and well worth a roll

I think that's all I need to hear ... checks release date ... ah balls another one in October, which is quickly becoming the Vita month!

14.95 though seems silly not to...

[Quexex]

HOW DID THIS HAPPEN ... just ordered New Little King Story and Monkey Ball from Grainger Games... Can't believe how many stores they have up north! Nice to see there's still a big indy out there.

It's well worth it at that price. They've removed all the stupid rails and made it a lot more challenging. It needs the GameCube analog stick, but you can't have everything. The mini-games are also great fun, with some enjoyable new ones. I was pleasantly surprised by how enjoyable it was (compared to recent efforts).

[TheSlugFormerlyKnownAsNap]

Hmm, a proper Monkey Ball would be welcome. Can you use both sticks and tilt, or is it just tilt (or sticks)?

Reading around I believe you choose which control option you want to use tilt,sticks or blow!

You can choose between stick or tilt. I prefer the stick myself.

Retro Ciry Rampage is coming on the 9th of October, been a long time coming.

[Lorfarius]

The Vita/PSN version has been delayed until later this month.

[Dandy_Sephy]

Isn't that just the euro release?

[Lorfarius]

Yeah sorry. US is the only version out on the 9th.

[memories]

Bugger.

[strawdonkey]

Super Crate Box is excellent, and a really good fit for the device.

[Janski]

Rebel by Pom Pom is also a great PS Mobile game. Like a bullet hell shooter but all you can do is move, well worth £1.59 anyway

[Quexex]

Shameless gaf robbery but still worth a look despite being very short.

Criterion look like they are going to deliver a great vita version of NFS:MW.

[LiMuBai]

I can't watch that video. Is anyone else having trouble watching embedded ideas on here using an iPad since the update? (iPad 2, on iOS 6)

[Lorfarius]

Yep and I'm on an iPad 3

[Quexex]

That sucks ... Works fine on an iPhone 4 on 5.x.

Has anyone noticed that Pinball Arcades framerate seems really choppy on the vita since the latest update? Just tried Bride of Pinbot and Medevil Madness and both had really bad framerates I'm sure it was slick 60fps before.

[Isaac]

Just as a heads up, if you want to do the psp homebrew exploit (lets you run psp isos and emus on your vita) download the mad blocker alpha mini.

The exploit is due to be released on Tuesday, if it's like the other exploits the game will be taken down from psn within hours of its release.

[KriessG]

That looks very close to the console versions, which plays great. Nice.

[Retro GhostGS]

I noticed Klonoa pop up on the vita store on friday. I hope Tomba follows pretty quickly.

I think Tomba is already up (as of last week) ...may not work on the Vita though!

It clearly went up but as you say it's not on the vita store.

[Vemsie]

Best of PS Mobile, according to EG:

Would love to play Rebel, so hopefully it won't take ages before Sony rolls out its service to more countries.

[Vemsie]

Also, this Retro City Rampage launch trailer is damn good.

New AC Liberation footage as well:

[Ferine]

I really wish Liberation wasn't coming out the same day as ACIII. It's a completely baffling decision; even a week earlier would have been fine!

[Fuddle]

got DJ Max in the post today. i'm so bad at it. i can barely scrape through doing pretty easy 2 star songs (it goes up to 10!)

its really good though.

[sid]

Is fifa 13 worth getting? I dont have any fifa games...

[FluffyVonPuba]

I haven't got either but the concensus seems to be that there is absolutely NO difference between 13 and Fifa Football on the Vita except for some minor cosmetic touches. Check Here for example.

If you don't have any Fifa games you might as well start with Football, it's about twice as cheap as 13.

I quite fancy giving a dj max game a go, is this the one you have?

Did you get it any cheaper than that?
