Sony engineers working on PS Vita "cost reduction" for post-2012 price cut

This is good news and shows commitment on their end that they will support this device into the Fall and there is a price cut coming with a redesigned model. For their sake, they better hope this shows up early Winter. It wouldn't be a bad thing to have 4gb internal memory built-in. In the meantime, those memory card prices really need to drop some if they can't cut the price of the Vita.

Re: Sony PSVITA Discussion

NFS Most Wanted is one of my most anticipated games for the fall. There's also a Vita version of the game, not sure if I'll get it or, but it does appear to have some tie-in with the PS3 version.

Autolog will also tie together the Vita and PlayStation 3 versions. You can earn XP on the go, and then see that applied to the PS3 version.

I don't really care too much for the Autolog feature, but depending on what all XP does, it might be worth getting the PS3 and Vita version. I'd really like for my two versions to be in sync as far as career progress in the game though.

We might get lucky and get it for free with the PS3 version or even at a discount per rumors.

Yeah, the Vita thread in the Madden forum is surprisingly quite healthy (and not just from those of us in here cross-posting to it)

Yeah that would be awesome. Considering how fast the racing games like NFS price-drop, it would have to be a heck of a deal to get both brand new. I'd buy both for $60 more than likely, but that's my limit.

I noticed that too. Those guys need to get in on this thread. One of the few I check and post in daily.

It sounds like they're planning a spring price cut at the earliest, maybe another 6-9 months.

If I had to guess, maybe February to try and buoy sales and paint a better picture for their annual fiscal numbers in March.

In the meantime, I'd include a 4gb card with every purchase, drop all memory cards to 30-50% off, and put Madden and other previews on all display units.

I got em all.

[Aggies7]

I got em all.

I can't figure out rising shot at all so I can't get that one. Read how to do it and still can't.

[Chef Matt]

Best course to do those crazy shots are in the first one. You'll eventually hit a shot super close to the pin off the green and you'll be able to try it.

The key is hitting it harder than the chip in shot suggests. That way you hit the ball in the air and hit the pole instead of it rolling. It has to hit the pole airborne or on a bounce.

Level 3 or higher too.

My Crowns:

Thinking of going all-in on the plat since I've put so much time into this game already (and will continue to). The Crowns and super shots don't scare me nearly as much as getting a Double Eagle does. I only had one of those in the entire time I played Out of Bounds - they are very difficult and very rare.

Re: Sony PSVITA Discussion

I don't have too many left. But the Double Eagle does still eludes me! I've just been playing the first course over and over. I usually end up missing them on a few holes by 1.5-2.5 feet UUGGHH!
