I hope it's the most powerful of the three next gen consoles, but at the same time, easier to code for, so we don't see shoddy ports again, lol. |
It will be fine. They wont make the same mistake twice. They know what they need to do now. We'll all find out soon.

Yeah that's what they said about the Vita too....
|
What's that suppose to mean? Did they launch a handheld system that is selling at a loss and is hard to code for? Don't be that guy.

One of PSP's biggest flaws was it tried to mimic console gaming. While this worked at first it eventually stagnated. The Vita is doing the same thing with a high price point like the PS3's launch with no titles that appeals to a mass amount of people. They learned nothing from the PSP or the PS3 launch looking at the Vita. That is what that meant.

except the PSP was trying to run PS2 games on hardware that couldn't run PS2 games.. in fact it was receiving hybrid Mobile/PS2 port like games.. that didn't have much of the PS2 games features..
Vita is doing the opposite.. vita is basically trying to be a PS3 in your pocket.. which is different than a PSP, which was tryin to offer console like graphics on pocket and that's all.. Vita has PSN behind it.. and hardware somewhere between Wii and PS3.. and is capable of running games almost on par with ps3.. like need for speed most wanted.. open world.. visuals almost on par with ps3 version.. but less traffic/online players(although still the same core game)..

This entire comment makes no sense.
PSP and Vita has almost the exact same strategy.
PSP mimics the PS2
Vita mimics the PS3
How about going back and looking at software sold on the PSP. For the first few years the thing sold really well and then people didnt care any more and it dropped. Pirating was also an issue.
The Vita hasn't even had a good start because people already know what to expect from Sony in the hand held market. People has lost faith in Sony and as you all will probably notice, console like games on the go doesn't work well. Why? Because you can get a better version on a home console that people already own.

PSP didn't mimic the ps2 though.. most of those ports weren't even close to being on par with anything on the PS2.. the only things that come close were GTA..
Vita.. is actually capable of running things on par with ps3.. with slightly downgraded visuals.. for example..
PS ALL STARS BATTLE ROYALE is the same exact game on the ps3.. same exact online interface.. and you can cross play between vita and ps3 players..
You never had that on the PSP..
|
That's the part people don't seem to understand about Vita. The PSP was forced to recieve watered down PS3 ports due to its hardware. The Vita however is capable of running games as good as PS3 and even better. Its limitations are sloppy developers.
To expand on that: PSASBR even runs on Vita at 60 fps just like on PS3. From betas and demos it is obvious the Vita version is a 1 to 1 port for the end user. (textures are less detailed but that is only visible when blowing the vita screen up)

Nobody has said anything about the hardware of the Vita as it is really good. Still a bad game is a bad game regardless of how good it looks. The vita has no mass appeal because it has no franchise that can raise this thing off of the ground. Sadly this is the path that sony is going in. Out of all the franchises they own, they dont have 1 franchise that can sell a console a lone. This is why in a few years when it has a number of exclusives that it may have appeal. That or hope for a good third party franchise or the possibility of some new ip that can sell it. Right now it will be relying on CoD so let's see how that goes.
