PlayStation Vita - Community Connection

[Quigibo5]

So with its launch approaching in less than 3 weeks i figured why not discuss it

Today at gamestop i was able to demo the PSV and i walked away wanting to place a preorder.

i demoed Uncharted: Golden Abyss, little deviants, Gravity Rush, and Escape Plan.

UC:GA only demoed platforming so i was upset that i didn't get to see how it really played, the controls came naturally and the touch controls worked amazingly. i even found myself using the rear touch panel to climb without even thinking, it just all feels natural.

Gravity Rush: is a great looking game and has major potential. the controls worked well and the gyro aiming made placing the new direction of gravity more precise. overall i enjoyed it.

LD is good to pass the time with, it is just a bunch of mini games tho. its fun but not a "must have game" and more of a tech demo to showcase the Vita's controls.

Escape Plan was actually the game i was most in love with. the art style is just beautiful and it uses both touch screens with purpose and acceled in this. altho i didn't get to play as "big" i could tell the read panel was for his movements and the front for "little". you could also tap on each screen to move objects out of the way or to moved objects to create a path. you willllll die a lot bit its not punishing and most ways you die are kinda humorous. overall i loved this game the most (mainly cause i didn't get to see more of uncharted)

may go back tomorrow and play it more lol so i may be posting more

The PlayStation Vita is here! GamerXChange has done a bit of work laying out the Launch Guide for everyone. You can check them out below:

PlayStation Vita Launch Guide Part I: Hardware

PlayStation Vita Launch Guide Part II: Games and Apps

PlayStation Vita Launch Guide Part III: Accessories

No doubt a lot of us getting the system during the launch window will want to connect to others, try out the different Vita features with each other, and discuss the games and everything else that the Vita has to offer. Here's the place to do it!

Sweet. Where are you pre-ordering it from? We have some good links in the hardware guide if you haven't decided yet.

Also, we have the Vita along with several games. We will be reviewing the hardware along with some of the games. We are also awaiting a few other games that are on their way from different game companies to review.

But reviews for hardware and games will likely start going up next week. We would like to give it a thorough workout first.

Gamestop, have one in town and thats just a lot more rewards point for me also. at 20500 points atm lol. altho amazon made it a little more enticing with the free screen protector they are throwing in for preorders but i don't wanna wait, i wanna be able to pick it up and play.

and yes i read all the guides =], very excited for your reviews. saw some pretty mixed reviews so far on some of the games but in all the average is at least 7.5 which is solid.

sorry for double posting but i am now the proud owner of a PSVITA.... now to play the waiting game lol

[Simply G]

Awesome. Have you picked it up yet? Thoughts? We posted our system review and Uncharted review. Ninja Gaiden Sigma Plus review is coming next.

Also, updated the post above with the Vita Launch Guide Part 3.

Yes i did pick mine up Wednesday and i loveee it. so far bough escape plan and Tales from space, (and the Free AR games) waiting for uncharted to come in the mail (didn't feel like driving the half hour to get it) cause its $40 at target and Toys R Us.

i love the fact it really does everything the PS3 does. like it even lets you stack downloads and will download in the background. upset i can enjoy Super Stardust Delta for another month but once uncharted comes and Unit 13 comes out i'll be busy until then lol. it just feels so comfy in my hands (and i have biggg hands), the OLED screen is just breathtaking and love how responsive the touch screen is. i have no bad things to say about it so far
