Good to see a ToMB update! The update I really want though is an option to actually give these guys some money for something that isn't for consumable IAP crap. Some new game modes, perhaps. They deserve it for the amount of fun I got out of the game.

Contact them by email and ask for their PP address. Then send them £5 as a gift. Imagine if that's how game sales worked... play the game to it's fullest, then send a bit of cash to say thanks :P

I've got far too much value out of ToMB than the £0 price warrants. I'm not buying crystals though as I can't use up the ones I have! Over 100 lives and 200k crystals since I changed my totem/bonus layout

Seriously that's a lot of bank you've got there, I thought I was doing well with 100K and 30 odd lives...

There's an update for everybody's golf at the moment.

I think it adds a four player mode online and other stuff, can't download until I get home though.

Thanks for the heads up and it's a hefty download at 485mb.

I am SO FUCKING JEALOUS! How did you do it? Been trying on and off for a year now to get that trophy

Luck...I had all the blast type bonuses and managed to get a run for 4 gem matches. Then it went mental.

Ok guys, I got PS+. Wow. Downloaded LOADS of stuff last night (PS3 too).

Leonidas0209 if you would like a race on wipeout, compare trophies, whatever...

According to a few Japan based gaffers, Soul Sacrifice and Vita are selling out. After last week's bump is sakes it would be nice to see the system get some more much deserved sales.

It took me over a week to find one (white, 3G), here in Tokyo. They're almost constantly sold out, everywhere.

Another anecdote, whilst I was buying mine, two other guys bought one, and a third was told that they just sold out. No memory cards around these parts, either. Selling like hotcakes.

it's about 200yen difference from buying the wifi vita and the game separately but includes a men card, case, headset etc. It's a pretty good deal but Vita sold 60,000 the week before Soul Sacrifice was even released (only came out yesterday)

There are two vita games in the top 10 (one selling 60k, the other 90k. most weeks at least one of those would top the chart) and Minna no Golf reentered the chart into 16th.

It's a bit of both really.

You know what I find weird about the Vita? Everyone says that it has no games. But that's not true. The Vita has around a dozen games I want to play (Demon Souls, PSO, P4G, Unit 13, Everybody's Golf, EDF, MGS:Collection, Wipeout, Superstardust, Rayman, Ninja Gaiden to name a few).

The 3DS? Nothing. I've played Mario Kart a million times, Zelda: Oot half a dozen and the same for Mario.

The problem with the Vita was Japan. It needed a killer title to shift numbers and it never had that. It needed a Monster Hunter.

Because it never shifted there early on, I think that then translated to sales in the west. Now Japan has Soul Sacrifice, they are going mental for the system. If they get the sales out there, we'll see more games being developed for it and a big deal made in promoting those games.

I expect we'll see at least a new Batman Arkham and another Assassin's Creed, plus we are getting Killzone. Those should be nice additions to the indie heaven the system is becoming.

The Vita has games, it has a shit ton of games (100 in the first year, plus minis and PS1, PSP). I have said before it has had the best opening year library of any new system I have seen. It just needs promotion and people reviewing these games that understand what they actually are. Gravity Rush for example, got a lot of mixed reviews from the likes of Giant Bomb, IGN, Gamespot, etc. Sites that the larger consumer base will tend to look to first.

If Killzone comes out later this year and gets 9's and 10's across the board it will boost western sales. However if it does, it is an example of a game that ideally the Vita needed on release. Something to get the 'casual hardcore' wanting the system. Those who almost exclusively play FPS games like Battlefield and COD. As it stands, the Vita is a gamers machine, with a broad range of titles that cover most tastes. Being able to jump from Persona to EDF to Everybody's Golf gives the gamer options. I do think however it is missing a killer puzzler, it needs a Tetris, Denki Blocks, Peggle, Droplitz, Chime, that sort of thing.

Also, PSM needs a massive overhaul, it needs to be a way to allow the iOS games onto the system and to priced and structured in the same way as the app store. Yes we will get ten ton of crap, but at least it gets more options on to the system.
