$19.99 and download only?

So Vita is on life support, and we'll still get the funky looking CAP faces? That's not what it says, but that's what I'm hearing.

Dude, limitations of the system. Get over it, it's not going to get fixed. And complaining about it every year doesn't help. The Show on Vita is already super robust for a handheld game. See Fifa, Madden, etc.


If it's a game killer for you, don't buy it. That simple.

If it were a limitation of the system then all players would have the same awful looking faces. Nice try though!

Not long now until Vita goes the same way as the PSP.

Sony may eventually realise the market for handhelds just isnt there anymore, in the way it was in the 90's early 2000's.

You can't expect Vita to have the same face rendering options as the PS3, let alone the PS4. And the goofy looking faces come about because they were created on a home console for OSFM, and transferred over to the Vita.

If OSFM started on the Vita and was transferred over to PS3/4, the messed up faces wouldn't be a problem. But then they'd all come out looking too generic.

So yes, I feel that it absolutely is a limitation of the system. I'm not saying the faces wouldn't get messed up on default rosters (such as when a new class comes in, gets generated on PS4 and ported over- you'd likely run into the same problem). I just know that the majority of gripes on this topic relate to OSFM.

I was hoping they would do some kind of discount for the Vita version if you owned the PS4 version. This is better than I even hoped.

The Vita wishes it had the success the PSP did.

I love my Vita and since I bought it mostly for The Show, I'm happy about the digital download and lower cost.

Same here. I have a 3DS and Vita. When I travel for work, I always take the Vita so I can play The Show and watch YouTube and Netflix.
