Re: Sony PSVITA Discussion

I don't know how you guys can stand using screen covers... they bubble, they take away from how good the screen looks, and they really don't do anything outside of helping against smudges, for which I just keep a lens cleaning rag in my case. This screen, much like the iphone screen, isn't going to scratch unless you really abuse it, so it just seems like such a waste of money, lol.

When I worked for ATT, I literally used to take care keys to my iphone screen, just to show customers how durable they were, and to save them money that could be spent on something other than a screen protector.

I only have 3 very small bubbles at right edge that you can't see during any gameplay.
$12.00 'ish for ease of mind
If something did happen then I'd be p!ssed I didn't spend the 12.00 to help protect it.

Re: Sony PSVITA Discussion

Is there any workaround at all to get PSP UMDs on the Vita? Decently important for me, as I probably have about 15 or 20 of them that would never get touched again if I have a Vita. Right now I am probably going to wait for a price drop and/or must have game. HSG is nice, but I already have other versions, same thing with Lumines. I still need to play the Uncharted series on my PS3. And for right now, with sports games like FIFA and the Show, most of my gaming would be done at home, and I live alone so there is no reason why I cant use my tv.

All that said, it does look like an amazing piece of hardware, and not getting it has more to do with my financial situation than the Vita's quality (although I do think it is a bit pricey).

This might help.

Re: Sony PSVITA Discussion

Thanks. The problem is that they are all UMDs. And the last sentence in this paragraph from the article:

So far, I've done this to transfer two of my favorite games: Echochrome and Flow. According to message boards, many more games are transferable, but the only officially supported games are those that show up in the PS Store, and are listed in the official Sony blog post above. Of course, there's a good chance that these other games will officially appear in the PS Store sooner or later. And, sorry, UMD owners: this still doesn't help you at all.

I do appreciate the assistance though. It just may seem that I am SOL on this one.

There may be a few games worth rebuying digitally, so that does remain an option. However that is far from ideal.

Re: Sony PSVITA Discussion

Really enjoying Uncharted. Someone mentioned it is even better when you turn auto assist aiming on. How do you do this?

Thanks!

Go to Options and it's under controls I believe.

I got one with the Starter Kit. I understand what you mean about screen covers. I quit using them on my iPhone. But the screen cover I got with the Starter kit, hasn't degraded the image and it looks nice. I would use it again.

Lol, probably my OCD, but those bubbles would literally keep me up at night. No way I'd be having that!

To each his own though, wasn't trying to be a dick(dalewood), just not something I would ever buy.

I did, however, have gamestop put one of the trigger grips on hold for me... looking forward to trying that out

Re: Sony PSVITA Discussion

For those that have Fifa, is there a closer camera view other than the default that's in the demo? I just can't tear off the wrapping just yet, as I feel the view is too far on the default camera view. I'm concerned with a closer zoom, the pitch would be too small.

Yes there are closer camera views just like the PS3 version. Btw": I absolutely love this game on the Vita.

I take a sticky roller to the surface before applying the screen. By doing this, you will not get dust bubbles under it. Seriously, you can look at my PS Vita and you cannot tell there is a screen protector on it. I have OCD to when it comes to perfection. I wasted the first protector just because one of the edges was slightly noticable.

I don't even have a Vita yet so I'm living vicariously through all of you.

This was the first thing I did when I started the game, because everything was too small. You can zoom in , and pan down.. etc.

I ended up with a view that I can live with and like I said in my earlier post, I normally play on a 106" screen, so if I can adjust to a 5 inch screen, anyone can.

Re: Sony PSVITA Discussion

I am going to order one of those grips, because FIFA would be much easier to control with them. On the naked Vita, it takes a bit to get used to holding it


(and I had to turn off the back touch screen, I think its more of a hassle really)

I tend to agree, but I'm going to give the Hori one a shot, at least until it annoys or more info comes around about how resistant the screen is to scratches.
