Mistranslation in the OP.

"We didn't announce everything", should actually be "We didn't announce anything".

Fix it please.

I feel kind of bad for people who have to see "AAA" before they can enjoy a game. That's kind of sad.

I'm also not sure why people say Sony isn't supporting the Vita when they have three major games in development. What do they have to do, drop the PS4? The ones not supporting the Vita are western publishers in general.

As for the Vita RPG, I'm guessing Project Phoenix, which would be fantastic. Really hope it happens.

I'd put that if it wasn't a direct quote lulz I interpret it as ... we got the indies out of the way so now we're going to focus on the bigger titles (one can dream).



 

Playstation = The Beast from the East

Sony + Nintendo = WIN! PS3 + PSV + PS4 + Wii U + 3DS

Come on, it's been the beginning for 1 year and a half! Can't we get out of the beginning just yet!? I'm NOT being excited anymore...

It's actually a bunch of games. He took a Twitter poll to see which JRPGs people wanted brought over (something awful like Tales won) and now he's working on bringing some JRPGs over. Presumably the most popular ones in the poll.

But you are totally wrong about indie games. They are not Real Games, and no one has ever had Real Fun playing one. If you ever thought you did, you were sadly mistaken.

You feel bad for almost every gamer? I think it is the contrary.

The problem is that most of those indie titles are available on another platform already.  Furthermore, bigger budget titles are typically more robust, more packed with content, and so on.  Indie titles are an excellent extra to have once you have a nice lineup of traditional retail titles, but they don't substitute those titles.

I'm also not sure why people say Sony isn't supporting the Vita when they have three major games in development. What do they have to do, drop the PS4? The ones not supporting the Vita are western publishers in general.

Three whole games?  Killzone and Tearway I know, but I don't know about the third.  Three titles is not enough especially when third party support is weak in the US.  Compare this to the 3DS's 2013 lineup.  People complain (rightfully) about the Wii U's software drought, but I'd say the Vita's is worse, and the system has been on the market long enough to get their **** together.

i hate this guy. really, he hypes shit so much and then it turns out to be and indie tittle. geez

This.

He said wait until we see what's available at Gamescom.  We waited, extremely hyped up about the  day Gamescom cometh, and nothing.  Another port or indie titles that I can buy on my PC.  Whoopty fucking doo.


i mean shahid we get it, you like indie tittles, you love them, you masturbate to them, we get it. but its not all we want. i dont know what he works as exactly, but if he is responsible for the lack of big tittles for the vita he should get his ass fired. a lot of indie games are cool, but does they dont warrent buying a 200$ system with very expensive memory cards. people want games like uncharted, killzone, tearaway too.

This guy is just gonna tease us for the next few years until finally 1 amazing game is announced and then he is gonna say: "This is the game I was talking about!"

he can't lose this game..

Crap.  I guess you're right.  All those games I have on Steam and PSN, I wasn't really enjoying them, was I?  EA, Activision, I was wrong!  Come back to me!  I can only have Real Fun if I know there is a large budget involved!

Though my heart is broken, thank you for showing me the Light.
