Sigh! I was so happy with my 180m+ on ToMB, then I look at the leaderboard and see it is only good enough for second.

Ha ha ha..... Sorry

[bradigor]

It's a great feeling when you have a round like that though.

[LiMuBai]

Aye it is. An even better feeling when you don't realise how well you've done and glance over to see a great score.

[Cthulhu Steev]

Sony gave Notch a golden PSOne, I guess they're either full on desperate for it still, or the rumoured Minecraft Vita is true and they were saying thanks.

[Dandy_Sephy]

That's some serious bling even for a quick paint job. I like it.

Ubisoft confirm Rayman Legends for Vita

Unit 13 is £11.99 on the store at the moment - good price? Quite fancy a fps on the Vita.

Fantastic price!! But it's a 3rd person shooter, not an FPS. Amazing game though

Day 1

[cavalcade]

Unit 13: It's also not really a shooter as such. I'm not even sure what I'd call it - a sort of score attack, arcade game with shooter tropes. Whatever you call it, it's fucking ace.

Exclusive content for Vita version:

PR:

Madrid, Spain — May28th, 2013 —Today, Ubisoft announces Rayman fans will be able to enjoy Rayman Legends on Playstation Vita. Rayman Legends on Vita will be released alongside the console versions on August 29thin EMEA territories (August 30th in the United Kingdom).

Great game. Great price. I'd been waiting for ages for it to come down to a reasonable price (until I got a copy that had no box for a tenner).

Yakuza Vita is happening, apparently - http://kotaku.com/yakuza-on-the-wii-u-is-an-experiment-and-not-happenin-510075724

Elsewhere in the interview, Nagoshi was asked if Yakuza was coming to the PS Vita. The game producer replied affirmatively, once again acknowledging how the series has been born and bred on PlayStation hardware.

[routeburn]

That is really really good news.

Now all I want is FROM Software to announce Dark Souls 2 or a port or Dark Souls (or even Demon's Souls) to Vita.

[bradigor]

So, with Sony announcing that they are streaming E3 on the Vita, do we think that means they are going to make some major announcements for the system?

I had a look back through my library of games and I must admit if they announced a revision of the machine with internal storage and cheaper memory, I would be all over that.

My games list is a little obscene now, especially after I promised myself to be more careful with games on here:

Sine More
VLR
Thomas Was Alone

Uncharted
Gravity Rush
Retro City Rampage

Sound Shapes
Guacamelee

PSA Battle Royale

MGS HD

Wipeout 2048

Mortal Kombat

God Of War Ghosts Of Sparta

God Of War Chains of Olympus

Black Rock Shooter The Game

Jacob Jones & The Bigfoot Mystery

Mutant Blobs Attack

Knytt Underground

Nun Attack

Machinarium

Draw Slasher

Super Stardust Delta

Modnation Racers (let's pretend that doesn't exist)

Sly Cooper: Thieves In Time

Oddworld Strangers Wrath HD

Escape Plan

P4G

Uncharted Fight For Fortune

MLB The Show 12

Hungry Giraffe

Unit 13

Virtua Tennis 4

Super Monkey Ball

FIFA Football

Let's Fish Hooked On

Plus a few various carts over the time I have had my Vita, various Minis and lots more to come already

So much godness!

Never having played a Yakuza game and wanting to get into it I've been wondering if they bring the HD versions to the Vita but that seemed a hope too optimistic to voice since there's still no word of them coming to the West in any form. I'd settle for them on anything mind.

Got to agree with Bradigor, I would just be happy this E3 if there was a drop in memory prices at some point, and possibly the introduction of some larger cards.

I don't think even 32GB can handle PS+ after a year, and at £50 a pop it's stifling my interest a little when it comes to buying a load of stuff on PSN. Having a paltry 4GB card, I can only dream of being able to buy those four-disc PSOne JRPG monsters and having it on OLED instead of the PS3.

Admittedly, it's purely first world problems as I could probably dig up my PSP and just fill it full of Micro SD space, but it's just not the same. That, and said PSP-1000 is one of those with the dodgy Square buttons, which are absolute turd compared to the sublime build quality of the Vita.

Let me give you money, Sony!

[LiMuBai]

My 32GB card has been full since before Xmas. I wants a bigger card! Sony must realise that if people had space on their memory cards, they WOULD fill it with new games. Maybe they haven't brought out 64GB cards yet due to the cost to consumers?

Mine is full. My #1 E3 wish is for higher capacity Vita memory cards

[Flub]

The high cost is entirely artificial.

[bradigor]

Playing Quell Memento right now and it is simply lovely. Such a relaxing game even as the difficulty increases.

[Gloomy Andy]

Is there a blog post about Unit 13?

I had a quick look but couldn't find anything.

Just wondering if anything was mentioned about it going to plus.

[Yobo Ahoy]

Not in June. May be July but we won't know that for a few weeks.
