On the moon... they don't make Neo Kobe Pizza.

Killzone: Mercenary is probably the best looking game on this platform, technically speaking. Its also coincidently the last game Sony America made during the time they remotely gave a poo poo about Vita before offloading it to Third Party Production.

Gotta say Uncharted: GA has some incredible graphics. Are these the best the system offers?

Liking the game, other than the shooting sections and the pointless plot. But the rest is okay.

I'll say Killzone is better graphically.

Adding to this I don't know about the slim but the battery on the original model vita is loving insane. It'll live in standby until the heat death of the universe which is super cool when coupled with instant suspend/resume and the fact I tend to put it down and forget about it for weeks at a time.

I use to turn my Vita completely off every time, but ever since I found out first-hand how awesome the battery is in standby I haven't turned it off at all.

Uncharted/Tomb Raider without guns would be pretty chill fun games tbh.

Someone needs to make a randomly generated dungeon puzzle explorer type game with no combat and no lovely enemies to run away from.

You might like Knytt Underground on the PSN, and basically everything ever done by nifflas.

Somewhat highly considered VN Root Double's kickstarter just added a Vita version. They are making it exclusive to people who pledge $225 and above, which is not so great.

I'm not remotely interested in this game but that's dumb as gently caress. They're basically going to make a port of a game but not sell it?

it probably means that the lower tiers get a digital copy for PC, while if you want a free Vita version you have to back at a higher tier.

I guess I don't know how good this game is supposed to be but I can't really imagine a $225 tier getting more than like 50 people pledging to it so it's would be kind of silly to keep it backer exclusive

How does making a Vita game backer exclusive even work? Wouldn't they need to get it on the PS store to give it to the backers in the first place (at which point you might as well just let everyone buy it)

Try a reset from recovery mode?

If you have a problem with the PlayStation Vita and need to access Recovery Mode, you will need to do the following:

 

Ensure that the Vita console is turned off Press the PS button, Power button and Right Shoulder Button at the same time and hold for couple of seconds.You will now have a menu with the following options:

1) Restart the PS Vita System

2) Rebuild Database

3) Format Memory Card

4) Restore the PS Vita System

5) Update System Software

 

(Please note: you must use the PS Vita system's buttons to operate this menu).

I had stuff in my DL queue for my PS3. Once I cleared the queue, I was able to connect on my Vita. Probably a coincidence.

Yeah, it's a problem with the new firmware, but for less than 100% of users. Reboot the vita and you should get into the store, but you can get in only one time per reboot. Until they fix the store or the firmware you will have to reboot every time you want to use the store.

It sucks, mine is doing the same thing, I guess we just wait :shrug:

This not-Minecraft is actually cute. The only thing I don't like is that the ocean is a bottomless pit, so no swimming to other islands/continents/something. Maybe if I build a makeshift bridge?

For the record, you can only craft items if you know the recipe, same with the building patterns, and you get them from NPCs.

Wiping the queue and doing database restore do nothing. Just "please wait".
