Well, dead pixels suck but I haven't heard of it being common and this is the first case I've heard of a Vita having it, it is probably under warrenty for that. The mura effect might be unavoidable but it is not an issue as it is only visalbe in the dark during a completely black screen.

The original Vita's do suffer from a squeaky left trigger which can be fixed for the most part with a screw adjustment, loosen and tighten. Mine has been eliminated. My wife has a white Vita and hasn't suffered from that and it seems that the plastic that makes it feels different, but the system is essentially the same and the build quality is both excellent.

I'll be taking a look at it Monday, could just be a stuck pixel. I'll have a look over it and check for problems, if there are any problems I should be able to send it back. Either way, I'm going to have a Vita very soon.

For anyone in the UK, Currys/PC World are having an insane fire sale on certain Vita games atm:

http://www.currys.co.uk/gbuk/playstation-vita-games/xx_3783_31584_0_xx/1_12/price-asc/xx-criteria.html

Including:

- Rayman Origins £4.91

- Lumines £4.91

- Little Deviants £4.91

- Reality Fighters £4.91 (£2.91 if you buy online, not sure if it works with order + collect)

- WipEout 2048 £4.91 (same deal as Reality Fighters with order + collect)

Gonna see if I can hunt down a copy of Rayman Origins anywhere near me.  It's steal at that price!

Still waiting for Lumines to drop to 20 or less on US PSN. Bluddy Ubisoft

You can't go wrong with any of them. Personally for me Sonic and NFS are the better two titles. You certainly get a lot of bang for your buck with NFS and IMO it's currently the best portable racing game of all time.

Ironically, in the UK it's also the one that has been discounted fastest. I popped it on again yesterday and am still blown away by how good it looks and how much they've managed to cram into the Vita.

damn Kresnik they're some good prices, I'm even willing to try Reality Fighters and Little Deviants at those prices, shame they're completely out in my area :(

Thanks!Considering racing is my 2nd favourite genre I will maybe try NFS:MW too.

But actually I´m just hoping I can get this game for cheap (35€ instead of 44€ or so) because I have to pay for sooo many games atm.

damn uk is getting some mighty fine sales

I don't know if it's still on there, but Amazon were doing NFS for about 22.99GBP which is like 30 Euros? I'm sure they ship globally :)

Whatcoo talkin bout wills?
