Playstation Vita

[Treble]

I grabbed this for free earlier. You don't appear to be missing much...

Knytt Underground seems very nice so far. Very indie game but pretty and whilst I've only played 15 mins or so i suspect its going to be a bit metroidvania.

Not impressed so far. No inherent powers, lots of backtracking through huge, samey locations, no skill to the platforming (this is after about 1.5 hours in, btw). Just a bit dull really!

Have you bought escapeVektor yet?

If not, then you should: http://gamestyle.com/review/escapevektor-review/

How do you move home screen icons onto another page? I put it in edit mode but it only lets me arrange them on the page they're already on,

[rumblecat]

Just drag them down and the page will move to a new page.

Mine turned up this week. Uncharted is simply amaze for a handheld game!

Everybody's Golf will no doubt suck the hours up and I've had a quick blast on Gravity Rush which looks a bit different.

Katamari & LBP still sealed, Persona 4 in the post from VGP.

Looks like a portable Christmas for me, although the 16gb card I bought is looking a bit stuffed already.

[Avuncular]

I was trying to do that and it wasn't working. Just tried again and it worked.

Bit gutted there's no Tetris for the Vita. Essential for toilet breaks.

[MoFo2]

Lumines Electronic Symphony is your "Tetris", but each play-session in that game lasts a while so prepare your anus and expect your legs to go numb if you plan to play it while on the loo.

[Avuncular]

I had Lumines on the PSP and didn't like it.

[Pupponvesh 2]

Wasn't there a Tetris PSP mini? Or does that not work on the Vita?

[Avuncular]

Doesn't work.

[Quexex]

I had Lumines on the PSP and didn't like it.

Give Treasures of Montezuma Blitz a try it's a free bejewelled clone with power ups and a set time for a play session, which starts at 1 min but goes can last over five mins with the right combo of power ups.

Any verdict on PS Allstars and Ratchet Q-Force? Notice game are doing both for £25 each on PS3 and they are cross-buy.

[Janski]

Local Grainger Games had 2 new copies of Persona 4, US copies mind but sooooo tempted.

Then I remembered I need to finish Persona3 first.

Vita is totally wub wub at the moment

[Paulando]

No way! How much?

[Janski]

No way! How much?

£39 sealed

Ratchet isn't out until January - the ps3 game is but when you try to dl the vita version it says coming next year.

Cheers thats that one off the list for now then

The models in Mortal Kombat look surprisingly sub-par, were the console versions similarly erm...not that detailed?

Plays great/how I'd expect a MK to play though.

That's the main area the vita version differs. On console those gfx models are cutscene quality.

It's only really noticeable on the pre-fight intros as the game's pretty fast

I'm really enjoying PS Allstars, brought the Vita only version for £20, as I won't ever play it on PS3

[bradigor]

Yep, is a fun game.

I got the PS3 (cross buy) version so we can play as a family against each other on both systems at the same time. Better in local than it is online in my opinion.

P4G is absolutely lovely although I am a huge fan of the PS2 game! Having that and P3P available on one handheld is just awesome.

[Sabreman]

Yeah, I got P4 Golden from Grainger as well. They're sneaky with their imports - they don't show up on the website at all, so you have to check instore to see what they've got.

[Barny]

Knytt Underground is lovely.

New Warrior's Lair vid:

[Ferine]

Idol Minds aren't supposed to be working on it anymore. It's not cut like an official trailer, either, making me think this is old footage used as a demo reel or the like.

Hopefully when the game does reappear it'll have a less terrible name.

[Yewone]

Knytt Underground is lovely.

I'm not too impressed to be honest. It has the graphical style of Outland (which is a plus) just without any of the exciting gameplay.

Just felt a bit dull.

I'm not sure what to think right now. I really love the atmosphere and the leafy areas. But the puzzle game play has been getting a bit on my nerves. I really just want to explore and find new sights and sounds without having to redo the same room 20 times because I'm crap. I didn't even get that 'yay' feeling when I got it. Just a dull sense of relief that annoying stuff was over for now.

I don't know...

[LiMuBai]

I need to get a bigger memory card. 16GB just don't cut it now with PS+

[Nnooo]

Both versions or escapeVektor are the same content and controls wise. The Vita one runs at 60fps and also makes use of the touch screen for selecting levels, gyro to see more of the level and near for wildcard gifts (wildcards allow you to double you score on levels). The 3DS one runs at 30fps with 2xAA and 3D.

[Barny]

I say Vita. 60fps is the way, yay yay yay.
