That sucks about Irem, I mean really, for everybody. Just not good business.

i pray to god that PSO2 gets a release outside of japan.

any1 with me on this? (=

edit:

OH and i played Gravity Rush for around 4-5 hours now! The game is pretty cool so far, only things that bother me is the lack of AA on the heroine (while the world around her looks stunning), and that i think the control's arent exactly the best. but those are minor complaints, cuz' the game ain't bad at all. :]

oh and i love the vita so far. the 3DS' buttons started to squeak after a short while, the 3DS was more of a annoyance due to double images at time (as if you were holding it slightly incorrect, no matter the position) and that MFFN wobbly screen, that gave me the feel that the system wont last long (Oh and for the people saying that the screen is meant to be wobbly in order not to break the hinge - why is it that "only" half of the system have loose hinges, while the others are sturdy as heck?) really killed the system for me, and as far as manufacturing goes, the vita looks (as of now, i am still cautious about how it will perform after weeks of usage) like the far superior system to me. Oh, and ... NO FRIENDCODES. thank god!

Great to hear you are enjoying the system so far Crystalchild :D

as for PSO making it to vita in the west..i think it would be fantastic. Even if it takes a while as long as they can confirm it's coming then it's all good. So I hope it happens

Btw Sony is hinting at a secret guest speaker at their panel discussion that will follow gamescom this year..who is supposedly working on an unannounced title

so who do you think it might be?

I wonder if they think Killzone vita as an unannounced title ...I mean they even showed a bit of footage at the NGP unveiling. But we don't have anything else about it..not even a name.

Glad you're enjoying it. It really is a quality system with a lot of amazing.

If you happen to come across some sqeaking for your left trigger the solution is to loosen the screw around it a tad, maybe even tighten it back up. I had this problems as did some people who bought the system day 1. It was an assembly issue I hear but easy to fix and better to address than leave alone becuse it was quite sqeaky. It was the only issue I've had with the Vita physically and since adjusting it hasn't been a problem.

I hear its President Obama himself declaring a war on video games ahahahaHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!

Yeah, it felt like another part of my past was dissappearing. Irem made some great games over the years that other companies would try to emulate.

Here is a list of what they made over the years        http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Irem_games

I've enjoyed a good many of those on that list as I'm sure others have.

Looks like all you need to do for the plat is.

Clear all "Death Mode Levels"
Clear all "Beat School Levels"
Clear campaign mode (Im not sure if "Death Mode and Beat School Levels" are actually part of the campaign.

So there the ones that where making that post- earthquake survival game really bad timing that an actual earthquake happened in Japan. The game was supposed to be released on the day after the earthquake. That really sucks could of been a killer app for the move and a sleeper hit like Tokyo Jungle

I would have held my ground on the game....but I guess that would fly better in the US than in Japan. It really is too bad disasters like that happen. I hope Japan can improve potential damage from earthquakes in the future.

The thing is that the developers said that this game could of serve as a guild on how to deal with an earthquake aftermath, so this game would  of actually help the people.
