Same here. Started Hard and trying to find all the treasures but I'm still missing some. I'll need a guide.

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.

Aren't some obtained by doing certain things? I know I've also picked up some treasures from Near/Black market.

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.

what!? i JUST finished chapter 13 where Chase and Drake are talking in that library/museum... there were tons! how was i supposed to know to tap on them during a cutscene. ARRRRG :angry:

Well, yesterday I went to my supplier.

Initially wanted to pick up Rayman Origins and Wipeout 2048.

He was out of stock for Wipeout.

I managed to pick up the last, that's right, last copy of Rayman. Wipeout will be available on 8th, same day as Mass Effect 3

Still haven't got the time to play it. But my friend is coming by in an hour or so, so I'll try it out, and share my thoughts

I just bought Little Deviants from PSN. I played the demo and really liked it, certainly different to the other games I've played.

I like how the trial games are locked full versions like the apps and games on Windows Phone.

Only some of them are full games and requires the 100kb unlock download.

Curious to hear what you think. About to play some more myself now, although part of me is thinking of finally checking out Hot Shots Golf, I just am hesitant to have so many games going at once, as I will never finish any of them.

Rayman is definitely the one you should try first ! But hot shots golf is good too.

Kiss a bunch of your time good bye if you start playing HSG! :laugh: I played it like 5 days straight without touching anything else.

In fact, I've pretty much just been playing my Vita since I got it a week and a half ago. I've neglected SWTOR and SSX because of it lol. I just got Rayman and Uncharted in the mail, so I'm excited to dig in to those 2 games. I started the first few levels of Rayman and I'm having a good time. Will start Uncharted later tonight since my wife wants to watch me play.

Oh no doubt, I have started Rayman actually, been playing it for a good few nights. Loving it. I already know I will like, more likely than not love, HSG, as I have liked all of the earlier ones, so that is my game I go to when there is nothing left to play, if I ever reach that point, as I now have Unit 13 and MLB the Show 12 coming from Gamefly.

:laugh: Same here with neglecting everything else. I checked out SSX on Saturday, and just wind up not digging it that much and picking up the Vita. It is absolutely right now my go-to gaming device.

And would like to chime in I decided to check out the Mod Nation Racers demo since I downloaded it the other night. Truly a stinker and I see why it is getting such bad reviews. Atrocious frame rates at times. It is a prime example of a game that was created just for launch IMHO.

Anyone else experiencing Game Goods in Near saying they have a long expiration time than they actually do? Before I had something from Hustle Kings that said an expiration date of 10 days, went to download it and it gave me the no longer available message. It is about the 4th time it has happened out of at least 20+ times or so. So it is not a common occurrence but it has happened. Literally every time I start up the Vita I have at least 3 new game goods. I swear I have to have every song on the Stardust soundtrack twice by now.

As time goes on, I get more impressed with the Vita. I truly do. It really has done exactly what I was hoping it would for my situation, and that is offer me more gaming time. I put a headphone in one ear, watch TV with my wife, and all is good. :shiftyninja: :rofl:

Okay, spend some time playing Rayman.

First off, this thing is a beauty. Seriously. I mean, this game has everything a platformer must have. Fantastic gameplay, one of THE best art design I have seen in the games, the awesome animation which is smooth and silky, an awesome sound track and .... much more.

This game is seriously awesome. Anyone who has a Vita owes it to himself to try this out.

The level design is great too. It gets challenging as you progress, and will give you some real tough times at some points.

Anybody played it in Co-Op mode? I heard its great fun.

Another friend of mine is getting his Vita tomorrow. I'll check it out too.

Oh and whats the player limit on Co-Op? 2 or 4?

Oh and did I mention that it is hilarious too?

Many a times, I found myself laughing out loud. (Y)

Does CO-OP mode exist for the Vita version? I thought they took it out.

Unlike the console version, Rayman Origins on the PS Vita has no co-op mode, which is strange given the handheld is more than capable of supporting multiplayer.

Players will have to make do with a ghost mode which allows them a chance to obtain timed achievements.

Cons

  • Doesn't use the full potential of the PS Vita, especially with the touchscreen component.
  • Co-op removed from PS Vita version.

Bottom Line

Fans of good old-fashioned 2D side-scroll platformers will appreciate Rayman Origins in their PS Vita games collection. The title looks and feels great on the new Sony portable console although a lack of co-op multiplayer is a bit of a disappointment.

So I have rented Unit 13 and MLB The Show 12 for my Vita. Have started checking out Unit 13, and I like it much, much better than the Vita. Takes a minute to get into the controls, but once one does they are actually pretty good. It is basically a Vita version of SOCOM actually. Run N Gun gets you killed real fast. So have to be pretty tactical. It is by no means a great game, but it does provide a nice little diversion. So much so I may decide to Keep It Now. Just have so many games to still play.

Will check out The Show over the weekend probably.

Funny thing is that I picked up MLB The Show for Vita, but I don't have a Vita yet... I hear it's good (if you're a baseball fan). Sony was doing a $20 off deal if you buy the PS3 and Vita versions together. Couldn't resist. Now I just have to buy a Vita.

The PS3 version is really good.

Gonna check out Unit 13 soon. The damn demo made my Vita crash, have you had any issues with the proper retail version?

BTW I added you on PSN but you haven't accepted or declined. Just thought I'd let you know in case you missed it.

I got both and have only tried the Vita version so far. I'm enjoying playing RttS. Graphics aren't the greatest but gameplay is pretty awesome.

Super Stardust is a must buy I would say (my favorite twin stick shooter). For 10 bucks it's a great game and if you like score chasers then this will definitely be a game you'd enjoy (they do have a demo for it as well if you want to try it out).

By the way anyone who plays SSD feel free to add me, it's probably the game I play the most right now as I do a fair bit at work. :shiftyninja:

    • Get $50 of aloSIM Mobile Data Traveler eSim credit for just $24.97

      By News Staff · Posted

      Get $50 of aloSIM Mobile Data Traveler eSim credit for just $24.97 by Steven Parker Today's highlighted deal comes via our Apps + Software section of the Neowin Deals store, where you can save 50% off aloSIM Mobile Data Traveler Lifetime eSim Credit: Pay $24.97 for $50. Stay connected affordably in 120+ countries/regions with your own lifetime eSIM! An eSIM is a digital SIM card. It's basically just mobile data. Once it's activated on your device, it can connect you to data networks in other countries – giving you an internet connection with NO roaming charges. With aloSIM, you can load prepaid eSIM data packages onto your phone, tablet, or computer. Your lifetime eSIM never expires, so it's yours forever and there are never any monthly charges. You'll get $50 in eSIM data credit, which is almost always enough to cover all your data roaming needs for a full year. But if you run out of data, you can always top up your lifetime eSIM and stay connected internationally. Pay $24.97 for a lifetime eSIM with $50 in travel data credit Use your eSIM to join data networks in 120+ countries Install your lifetime eSIM on a compatible device to roam on local data networks Your lifetime eSIM never expires, and can be topped up with more data anytime Many data packages cost as little as $4.50 and last 7 days. Depending on the package you choose, the length of time varies. Good to know Length of access: lifetime For NEW customers only Instant digital redemption Once you add your $50 credit to your aloSim account you have up to 12-months to use it — after that your credit will expire When you pay for a data plan you also get a free phone number (via Hushed) for the same duration of your plan that was purchased - IE 7 day eSim plan gives you a free 7-day phone number Purchased coupon must be redeemed and used within 12 months This deal is not stackable (one offer per aloSIM account) A $4.50 data package will last 7 days The data DOES expire, and you WILL NOT have any leftover data for your next trip unless it takes place within the validity period. While the eSIM never expires, the actual data package is only valid for the length of time stated at purchase (i.e. seven days after activation, 30 days after activation, etc.) So if you buy a seven-day package and only use a tiny bit, that package is still going to expire after seven days. Access options: mobile (check compatibility) Max number of device(s): 1 Updates included Here's the deal: This aloSIM Mobile Data Traveler eSim $50 Credit normally costs ... $50, but it can be yours for just $24.97 for a limited time, a saving of $25 (50% off).
