he works for the Guardian it seems

so a pretty credible source

Nope no other source than Sony will know that info..ofcourse the other publishers will know tho on how much their games sold on psn..so hopefully we will get some data/info sooner or later..I think digital sales, especially in the west, is gonna surprise people. I have read on many people buying a lot digitally, not just psv but also psp titles.

and I just breezed through the weekly sales thread :D It's kinda pathetic how some are acting so gleefully thinking those were week 1 sales. facepalm. And saw one person actually admitting he would be happy if the sales were low. Some gamers hit new lows I swear.

anywho what matters the most = games and us PSV fans got plenty of those ;) and more to come

I don't think they can Handel the fact that it's the best systems to date! And so how that makes them mad.. Crazy people, not sure how they can call them selves gamers. It's pretty sad.

whther they like the system or not aside..hoping for bad sales for a new console is just a sad notion to me

oh well w/e lol

and here's something interesting I found

http://gematsu.com/2012/02/want-to-see-borderlands-2-on-ps-vita

We love fan campaigns here at Gematsu, so whenever we’re able to help one out, it’s always a pleasure. This time, fans are pushing to get Borderlands 2 on PlayStation Vita. And Gearbox Software CEO Randy Pitchford wants to make it happen.

Responding to an e-mail from a fan regarding the FPS / RPG hybrid on the handheld, Pitchford said:

Hi [name withheld],

Thanks for the e-mail – I loved it!

I love the Vita as do a lot of folks at the studio and we have explored this.

We’ll need some partner’s help and partner’s commitments to make this happen. Feel free to let Sony and 2K Games and your favorite retailer know what you think.

Cheers!

- Randy

Interested in playing Borderlands 2 on PS Vita? Then head over to this Reddit thread, upvote, and take the next step to get it there.

*******************

I am personally have no experience with this series yet..but from what I have seen..the games art style would look beautiful on the PSV

The first one was pretty good, it was a break from the norm, me and a buddy spent hours playing co op, and would be fantastic on the psv. Hooping for on line co op, it's what made the game great!

borderlands 2 on the vita would make an excellent co-op portable game

Looks like a nice little machine you know.

Oooo I see. Yeah I was just on there arguing that first bundle edition sales should count towards the launch sales. But in all honesty, I really don't care as long as I get games I want. I just pointed it out for them so some people don't get too annoyingly excited over low sales.

Yeah I saw that person's comment too. I don't understand how you can justify being happy with seeing a company fail when you have no real attachment to the other competing company. It's also hypocritical of Nintendo fans to treat Sony's losses as laughable when not that long ago Nintendo was suffering a similar fate. I think it's because gamers feel like they are attached to their company when really they are just buying and Nintendo/Sony/company is selling.

I found the fix to the problem that will be quite useful to anyone with a bunch of PSN Store PSP games to include many that are listed as "cannot be downloaded to PS Vita."

You have to download your PSP game(s) again from your PSN Store download list on the PS3. Second, and this is important; do not install the PSP game. Just leave the installer file in the XMB games menu untouched.

Now when you go to the Media Manager in the PS Vita, those uninstalled games will show up in the transfer from PS3 to PS Vita menu. The only game I've run into so far that doesn't is Mod Nation Racers.

Valkyria Chronicles II transferred and plays normally on the PS Vita even though it can't be directly downloaded to the PS Vita through the PSN Store. It's odd, but I'll take it. 

Sega Genesis Collection is another title that can't be directly downloaded to the PS Vita, but will transfer using the same steps. 

a rather vague, take this with a mountain of salt rumor for you guys

"With the PlayStation Vita the list of games will continue to grow as time goes by, but in the end what hardcore gamers want are the triple-a titles that the PSP once had in it’s arsenal. According to a tipster that has close ties some of the people over at Rockstar Games, (the folks behind the popular Grand Theft Auto series) have been working very hard at creating a Grand Theft Auto IV: Stories based game for the PlayStation Vita.

According to our tipster, the game will be based on the same map that we all know as Liberty City, but with a whole new story and character and possible downloadable content. Our tipster went as far as to even mention that the game has been in development for quite some time now. This does make sense being that if you look at the records, Rockstar released a Liberty City Stories game on the PSP only a few months after the handheld’s release here in North America.

Below we have some of the features that you might see on the future Grand Theft Auto Vita.

Multiplayer
Touch Based Combat
Touch Based Steering
Back Touch features
New Music
New Vehicles

As with any tip, we usually post these in the rumor section being that Rockstar has not confirmed or announced this just yet. There are, of course, some things that kind of confirm this such as the fact that Rockstar games is on the list of developers to make games for the handheld. Be sure to continue to check with us as more details come our way and we follow up on this story."
