Do the characters calling each other "funbags" count as comedy because they do that

edit: VVV Get the accessory that makes cool combos easier and play as Kagura or Aya and it should be easy enough. It was a lot harder in previous games though.

Uppers seems quite flat and poorly-rounded in areas where Senran Kagura and Valkyrie Drive are proud to stand out

In all seriousness it is kind of weird how the enemies just stood there. In Batman or Sleeping Dogs or probably any brawler from this decade they'd be pacing back and forth, posing threateningly, taking the occasional swing, etc. You only see them for maybe a second at a time in that video, so I hope that's not typical.

Onechanbara and SK are very different tone wise though, the former is more like an anime Planet Terror, riffing on the excesses of 80's zombie movies and other schlock horror whereas SK is a lot more... Sincere I guess? As in it actually wants you to care about the characters and stuff.

Games that want you to sincerely care about characters need to stop 30 of them front and center. I'm somehow supposed to care about Ikaruga and Yomi's happened-off-screen friendship just as much as Asuka and Homura's love story. Lack of focus, imo.

That's the real reason the Vita games are worse than the 3DS ones, because they introduce a bunch of characters no-one cares about.

Yeah, but in the 3DS ones, you couldn't get me to care one bit about Hibari, so they at least fixed that.

With the Vita ones, it felt like how in Dynasty Warriors, you'd get a bunch of characters for all of two missions out of, like, 20. Unlike DW, it made you care about them (usually) for those two missions.

Sometimes I lie awake at night and think, what is it to BE Dark Tits Anime? I try to put myself behind the man's eyes, try to think as he does. I wonder, does he think these things too? Does he lie awake, looking over his anime figure bookshelf, or perhaps thumbing through a titty anime game art book collector's bonus? I can hear mom yelling at him in spanish, or maybe Brazilian portuguese or whatever about the goddamn anime. I can almost feel it myself, his fingers gingerly handling a senran kagura DS box so as not to leave a smudge on the front. The texture, the excitement, every post he has ever made categorizing and ranking titty anime games. To go behind the looking glass is to understand why Uppers will be bad in his eyes. Without that level of commitment you can never truly comprehend the depths of thought which bring his opinionated posts forward, and thus can never comprehend Dark Tits Anime.

If it's anything like the rest of what Takaki makes, it'll be serviceable *at worst* in terms of performance. Surely, the guy can't possibly mess up cool yankee street fighter types.

Actually, looking at the trailer i get the feeling they couldn't get it running at a certain framerate, so they decided to make things a little bit slower and deliberate to make it remain playable while maintaining the style.

Is more that is somewhat pricey for a game I'm not really sure I'll enjoy. I did play the first (?) Oneechanbara in the Xbox 360 and it was entertaining but certainly not something that I'd pay at full price. Just let me know when it gets a deal in the PSN and I gladly will get the game


Takoluka posted:

The issue here is that he was probably the first person other than maybe Policenaut to even start talking about Uppers, rather positively, only to now constantly express how much of a disappointment it already is. He went from "Oh man, Takaki made a bancho beat-em-up! Yeah!" to "Oh, Takaki made a sluggish, uninspired lack of effort," seemingly if only because Daidouji (maybe!) isn't going to be included in the character roster. The same thing happened with Vita Senran Kagura games. The series that he pretty much solely championed (until Ran_Kizama showed up) is now dead to him, replaced by Valkyrie Drive, for reasons no one can seem to decipher.

His enthusiasm goes in every direction, nonsensically so, and it just makes the discussion so disjointed. He's like if Taint Reaper was an otaku in fast-forward.

I was never that excited for Uppers though? I just let you guys know the game existed. The thing I was excited for (as you pointed out) is the prospect of having Dai in the game. Honestly at this point I'll take anything that will give me more Dai content. Poor girl is totally ignored by the japanese fanbase :smith:

Oh and if didn't liked the Versus games is because they feel shallow and uninspired.

It's been as low as $20 and is, I believe, consistently $30 on PSN, which is less than the launch MSRP (which I think is $50? I don't remember what I paid for it). It's a good deal.

I picked up a used Vita from CL to replace the one I lost. Already had couple games, Disgaea 4 and Demon Gaze are the only retail games I have tho. Also a bunch of stuff off PS+ but a lot seems like garbage.

Gonna grab Persona 4. What other RPGs in the traditional styles are great?

PS+ usually has one good game (Helldivers is great) and a bunch of bargain bin games that nobody would buy otherwise.

The real value is in the automated savegame backups. Make sure you enable them with the yellow + symbol on the game card.

Speaking of those backup saves, do they play nice with saves that were backed up without PS Plus? I did a Vita backup a few months back when I didn't have PS Plus and I want to take one of the saves from that backup and use it. I'd like both preferably but I don't have a lot of experience with the PS Plus backup system.

If you overwrite the save with one from a PC, it'll likely disable the ps+ save, and then prompt you to upload it once you reenable it.

Is there a list of suggested Vita accessories around? I think I'm gonna buy a 1001 off a dude I know.

Was considering:

http://www.amazon.com/crystal-protection-Playstation-Cosmos-Cleaning/dp/B007IPZYGK/ (purple or silver aluminum probably)

and

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005CZD8AW

Is a back touch panel protector really all that important at all? Wasn't there something about a case that added extra triggers by touching the back pad or something?
