What's the best Mystery Dungeon-esque game for Vita? I feel like SoA is never going to give me Chocobo's Dungeon 2 or Torneko: The Last Hope in the shop.

Picked up Unit 13 to scratch a cover shooter itch. I'm enjoying it, but not thoroughly... the narrowly defined mission objectives (and in turn, gameplay) feel too constrictive. Is there another game I should be investigating?

I've played Uncharted, Killzone, Borderlands, and Resistance.

I actually picked this up for $14 at Best Buy this week and I'm legitimately enjoying it. Haven't played any of the other Danganronpas so YMMV.

P4: Dancing All Night is on sale right now at Best Buy.

Persona 4: Dancing All Night - $19.99 ($15.99 with GCU)
Persona 4: Dancing All Night - Disco Fever Edition - $39.99 ($31.99 with GCU)

So this is something like Elite Beat Agents, right?

Thanks for the heads up on this... not sure why no one posted this in deals, so I'm glad I checked here. Story mode is whatever, but the rhythm game is a lot of fun.

I only buy physical when it's cheaper now and the boxes crack me up. I guess it's mainly for anti-theft purposes since the games are so small but it's a tiny card and maybe a piece of paper if you're lucky in it. The manuals are digital which makes sense but it was kind of sad to look inside and see nothing.

The death of physical manuals is sad :(

ImpAtom posted:

It really isn't. Physical manuals are basically a complete waste of everyone's time. They increase physical release cost and waste resources for something trivially replicated in the game itself.

Yes, I remember the days of cool thick physical manuals and how neat it felt but "how neat it felt" isn't really worth it.

But if you're making games that are specifically for people who are hardcore gamers (as much as that term is cringe inducing) you should have the option to create a product that appeals fully to that market, which traditionally includes physical manuals and other 'tangibles'

Outlawing them full stop is ridiculous.

Silent Hill isn't really a loot game (no random drops) but for $10 it's a perfectly serviceable mindless dungeon crawl. Not sure why it gets so much hate other than not being anything like a traditional Silent Hill game, which from what I can tell they were always up front about.

Ragnorok Odyssey Ace is probably a better choice for scratching the loot itch.

I finally got a 64gb card, so now I have it and my old 32gb. I'd like to fill the 64 with retail games and the 32 with indies... can I use multiple menory cards with a single Vita/account? If so, how does it manage bubbles organization (downloaded and physical card)? Can I keep all physical card-based saves/installations to the system if I have a 2000?

Thanks.

Depends on what you didn't enjoy about Freedom Wars.

From what I recall it was clunky menus/progression system, questionable controls, and generally/obtuse boring story chunks.

I didn't get far into it since it felt like I was going to be stuck in a boring tutorial for a boring game for a while.

You can switch, you just need to power down between. No hot swapping on Vita.
