Sony PSVITA Discussion

[RoyalBoyle78]

I feel ya 23.

I mean seriously. Some of the reviews on a few of the vita games aren't judged fairly because of the whole console comparison.

That's so true...if hey would just judge the vita games for being what they are, and that's hand held games, then this vita games deserve a lot better ratings and credit, because IMO, as true hand held games, some of these games are amazing to me.

Re: Sony PSVITA Discussion

Sony's current PR doesn't help that argument much, the most recent commercials have a dual shock transforming into a Vita and the narration of 'console quality on the go'.

They never help but it's not a big deal..i just never remember people calling any ds devices consoles or in references like that

There are some games that really blur the line though....if not for the menu structure and the fact that you have to tap the screen to pick up weapons, the two versions of Battle Royale are pretty much identical. IF there is any texture reduction, it's not really noticeable due to the smaller screen.

But yeah, i agree with the point.

Re: Sony PSVITA Discussion

That's the one I got and there's also one that just covers the screen. Either one will do fine, although the instructions for the Hori one that covers most of the system aren't very good. This video was recommended to me to follow along for that particular screen protector.

That's the Hori I have, and I found the instructions to be fine. It's also very thin and really smooth, I see no difference in the image or the tactile response.

I will say though, pay attention to how it lines up around the start and playstation buttons, it's easy to think it looks straight at the top and around the buttons/sticks, but it's actually shifted.

Re: Sony PSVITA Discussion

The entire setup of their system begs for that comparison though. PS All Stars, The Show... games like these that they ask you to buy (if they don't give it to you) 2 copies of the game to take advantage of the interoperability.

The DS doesn't do this because there is little if any overlap. Consumer expectations have been better managed by having radically different platforms. Games don't release for it and it's wondered why they aren't as good as a Wii (or other HD console) counterpart, there aren't ports to it that provide direct comparisons or highlight where corners were cut for the sake of being a handheld. Nintendo carved out their own section of the gaming landscape and said this is how they're going to do things, and have been relatively successful in doing so.

I understand those things but getting off comparing this thing not ds to vita or vita to psp

its one of the reasons some are calling it dead 2 months in

Vita is 1 year old in just over a week in Japan.

I have the same one, too. Very easy to apply and aside from one bubble near the L stick, you wouldn't know I had a screen protector on.

Re: Sony PSVITA Discussion

Back to games ... I encourage all of you that are football fans to pick up Madden 13. For a first-year effort, it is an impressive showing by EA. I improved to 1-1 with the Colts after a hard-fought 27-20 win over Joe Webb (holy QB scrambles, Batman. He ran for nearly 80 yards!) and the Minnesota Vikings.

If we can get an NCAA Football experience like this on the Vita, I will be very happy.

I've got the Sony brand screen cover. Came in a 2 pack for $10 at best buy, although I don't anticipate really needing the second one.

I detest fingerprints, scratches, etc. so it seemed like a no brainer.

Same.. Although mine's right at the top edge near the middle. Another millimeter and it would've been a clean application.

I'm with you, DJ. I just picked up my Vita on Amazon's Black Friday AC Bundle sale and Madden was an immediate purchase thereafter. I am having trouble working on AC, Uncharted and NFS, because I can't stop playing Madden!

I picked up Madden the other day. Haven't had much time with it, but I already like it more than the PS3 version. I plan on starting a franchise after I beat Uncharted.
