General Discussion V: We will miss you dearly Adam Adamowicz.

My first PS2 game was WipEout Fusion.

My first PSP game was a WipEout Pure.

(One of my first) PS3 games was WipEout HD.

My first Vita game will be WipEout 2048.

:>

So did everyone get some snow today? We got about 8 in of snow overnight last night. So I ended up having a snow day.

Same here in Mass. I spent the whole day on my PS3. It hasn't even stopped snowing yet.

quote Rabla

Bought a Vita today, grabbed Dungeon Hunter Allience and have BlazBlue ordered to be delivered something during the week.

When does Gravity Daze/Rush come out for us because I literally bought the Vita for that game.

Why would you buy a Gameloft game? Prepare for buyers remorse.

I don't get why people are just buying the system for Gravity. I guess no one else a huge WipEout fan like me haha.

I never got into F-Zero and I still dislike then to this day. We grew up futuristic racing game rivals bro ):

quote Mudkip94

Is it me or are game endings lately have been underwhelming?

I thought New Vegas had a great ending where every decision you did mattered imo. The first time finishing the game was amazing, I didn't know it would recall a lot of the important stuff I did.

God I hate Bioware sometimes. They're an alright RPG developer but they've fallen so much so quickly... they used to be my favorite dev.



Just look at this shit and how they moderate their forums.

I hate how IGN has been hyping the game up for months.. making article after article about it. Got sick of seeing it before I could even play it.

IGN is a horrible website anyways. EA probably fills their pockets with money regularly.

Aurora I feel like I'm being robbed on the memory cards too. I'm awaiting a price drop... but it's just painful. Walmart has a bundle here, for 250 bucks you get the Wifi Vita with an 8gb card (isn't too bad) but I want my 16gb card god damnit.

I can't wait until some companies actually start making third party memory cards for it.

ssjgoten I'm really wary of reviews of any game published by EA, Square Enix, or Activision basically because I believe most large gaming websites are payed off by publishers.

PCGamingWorld gave DA2 a 10/10, despite the fact that the majority of the PC community were the people hating DA2 and comparing it to its superior predecessor. Smells pretty fishy to me.

PC Gamer gave it a nine or a 10 and they're basically the most legit PC journalists there are. People just have opinions man.

They said it had the best combat system out of any RPG, while the whole controversy was about the new 'press x to win' combat.

I get people have opinions, but the best combat system ever in an RPG? lol

Wow Starhawk is great. I haven't had that much fun online in a long time. Never thought a console shooter would become a must buy game for me. It helps that it's third person though.

quote Mudkip94

Can't you put motorstrom on your download list till you get your vita? Well it should still be up to at least Tuesday night.

How? Can I do it with my PS3?

quote Mudkip94

It said free when I put in my list. So maybe you picked the ps3 version?

That must be it, man I'm such an idiot. Hopefully Motorstorm is good.

quote Aurora

I use it a bit, but I very rarely go online with it.

Edit: FFS. Is the deal U.S. only? PSN Store says that MotorStorm RC Vita costs £4.79.

I was able to download mine fine. I feel a lot safer now that it's installed (:. It might be US only, I'm not sure. Just make a quick US account on PS3 to get it.

quote Kinetic

MHF2 ftw, bitches.

You can't honestly prefer MHF2 MHFU is just an expansion-pack sort of game that improves on it in every way.

I hope CFW happens for the Vita sometime. The PSP part of it has already been hacked, if you have a PS3 before firmware 3.55 you can put psp games on your Vita free.

I don't want it for piracy though, but rather customization. But the Vita has pretty good customization options already to be honest.

Half of my PSP library was on PSN, and I forgot the account, email, and password to the PSN I used to purchase those games.

All that money wasted.

How could you forget even account name or email

I was like 13 when I made my first PSN account on my newly purchased PSP in 2007 and I put random stuff for date of birth, a random name (because online wasn't big for the psp anyways and I didn't care) and I completely forgot the email I used for it. I started fresh when I got my PS3.

I was so stupid... god damn.

Well I only have money for one launch game, and it's toss between WipEout and Rayman. I've always loved WipEout, but Rayman seems like the perfect portable game...

Maybe I'll hit up craigslist for some deals.

I got my Vita and I love it. I don't have any games except for Motorstorm RC but that will change today. It's a little bigger than I thought it would be, but it fits nice in my hand.

I do dislike how if I go into my friends it shows everyone online on PS3. It would be cool to have a filter option to just show everyone online on their Vita.

I only have an 8gb card, really regretting not splurging on 16gb and going digital.

*bleep* that. The cards are over expensive.

I know that but after getting a bunch of digital games I realized how easy and awesome going digital really is.

quote Aurora

And so are the digital games, for that matter.

Cheaper here actually. Unless you buy used at Gamestop, but who buys used games?

Just beat mass effect 3. It had a great set up then awful ending I think.

What as so bad about it?

It depends. Do you want it spoiled for you or not? I'm not a fan of ME but god damn the story and Biowares general laziness just put me off of it so much.

You can spoil it, I have no intention of playing it.

Oh god Sony I hate you.

Still no sale on PSP games? Stop raping my wallet you *bleep*s.

quote Celes Leonhart

I've heard you fall down random holes etc. The game is built on the premise that it's going to be hard and that doesn't appeal to me in the slightest personally, especially when I mainly enjoy RPGs for the writing.

You fall down ledges and holes if you don't throw a prism stone it to test if you'll die or not. Or if you're stupid and don't pay attention to your surroundings.

The writing is... different. You get the lore and background of the world from the description of armor sets, weapons, etc. and it isn't directly fed to you. It's actually pretty interesting, but I feel it's left vague on purpose because the developer isn't known for outstanding writing anyways. The reason why people love Dark Souls is because the difficulty isn't artificial. When you die, you feel like it's your fault, not the games. Plus DaS has the most creative online system this gen, it makes playing the game really dangerous.

I enjoy good writing in RPGs but I also put hours and hours into Diablo 2.

quote The Pursuit

Hmm sounds really cool actually I may try it out once I am done with the games I am still working on.

So the multiplayer is like a PVP mmo in a way?

It's exactly like DeS. People put down summon stones, you can summon them while playing singleplayer if you're playing online, and while you're going through areas other people can invade you.

Plus there's different covenants in the game that add another layer of depth. Like a blue phantom and a red phantom can invade your world at the same time, but they usually start fighting each other instead of the host because they never got along

I can't wait for E3. I mean I knew the Vita, or any console at launch would be dry but god damn all I'm doing is replaying my PSP backlog and WipEout. I know you're never supposed to buy a Sony console/handheld at launch.

I still love the system though. I honestly thought it would be a pretty shit but I carry it around with me everywhere. Hopefully Sony gives up some good games at E3.

I thought it went Infamous 2 > Prototype > Infamous.

I'd pay money for an Infamous Vita game where you play as Kessler in a steampunk or cyberpunk future before he went in the past. That would be awesome.

Yeh same here, but Its only its first year. I had the same problem with my PSP but was SO thankful I never sold it later on
