In the wake of the announcement what do you guys want to be announced or released this year for Vita?

Tiger Woods
Gran Turismo
Grand Theft Auto
Splinter Cell
All of the above pretty much, although out of that list, GT and GTA would be the games I really, really want. I think GT is probably a given, and I hope GTA is as well.

I am picking up Wipeout 2048 and Rayman tonight :woot:
Nice, let us know what you think.
I will say this with Rayman, I was renting it through the Gamefly service we have here in the states. I enjoy it so much I decided to Keep It Now, which cost me $18 thanks to credit I had and their discount that is already applied to games.

Absolutely. (Y) Wipeout really is amazing all around. I have to say, and this is all my opinion after playing it, I truly cannot believe that people were making the 30 frames per second out to be an issue. Some of the comments and articles I read on various gaming websites were just silly. Like the game was unplayable because it runs at 30fps. I really truly believe those that did make a big deal out of it were either nothing but Sony haters, or they literally did not actually play it. It truly is a non-issue.

Agreed 100%. The Giant Bomb review was making such a huge deal about how the game "lacked a sense of speed", but as a huge Wipeout fan, it feels perfectly fast to me. Maybe a difference would be more noticeable if you played Wipeout HD and 2048 side-by-side, but to imply that the game is severely compromised because of its framerate is a ridiculous argument unless you're really that fussy (which some people are, to be fair).

Don't care about Tiger Woods or Grand Theft Auto (shock! horror!), but I would love to see a Gran Turismo or Splinter Cell game. More than anything, though, I would love to see some of the smaller PSN games like PixelJunk Shooter or Joe Danger make their way to the Vita. Games like those seem like a great fit. Too bad Bizarre is no longer in existence, because Geometry Wars would be pretty cool with the twin sticks as well.

Edit: Oh, and more JRPGs. Good ones, that is :).

Don't let the Uncharted demo fool you, the full game is very impressive. It's quite a big game as well with 30 chapters.

thats good to hear, i just hope theres not too many fiddly areas, i don't mind challenging, just don't like having to perfecting swipe or move the analogue sticks.

Games i would love to see

Flower
GTA
GT5
Portal2 (especially co-op)
Call of Duty (i know, but i love the yearly releases)
LBP (which is pretty much a certain)

Agreed, good choice Rayman is an excellent title.

Not sure on wipeout, only played the demo and didn't really get into it.

I'm really loving Uncharted. I'm in Chapter 23. Loving the way it uses the Vita features. Got problems with the aiming at first but now I'm loving it.

Sony showing new PS Vita games next week - Report


Company's Web broadcast on March 9 will take wraps off new games for portable; info about upcoming titles and services also promised.



Gamers are only a week away from learning about new PlayStation Vita games. Sony will hold a Web broadcast next Friday, where it will reveal new titles for the portable, according to an Andriasang report.
The event--titled "PlayStation Vita Game Heaven"--will be held next Friday, March 9, at 8 p.m. JST, or 3 a.m. PST, and can be streamed from Sony's official site. According to Sony's announcement of the event (translated by Andriasang) the broadcast will offer information concerning unannounced PS Vita games, upcoming titles, and PS Vita services.
On top of that, Sony said game creators will be on hand during the broadcast.
No specific titles were mentioned, but earlier this week Sony said it had 70 PS Vita games in the development pipeline. The PS Vita was released in Japan on December 18, with a subsequent arrival in North America on February 22. The system sold 1.2 million units worldwide as of February 26.

I just finished Mutant Blobs Attack. If you guys are into platforming, this game is a steal for only $8.

my one gripe w/ Uncharted is the treasure system. there's like 300 treasures and no matter how hard i look in a given Chapter, i cant find them all. i just dont understand how im missing them. also, i missed a TON of treasures in the early chapters b/c i just didnt understand how to look for them or what they were exactly.

Theres some in cutscenes as well, you have to look for the flashing and tap on them with your finger while cutscene plays, missed a fair few that way.
