there aresome dark spots on mine,and it seems never will fade...
the music player seems weird,some tracks of MP3 will turn to be corrupted after played,it never happen with my 6 and a half years old PSP.



Goddamn it, I want mine now!



"Trick shot? The trick is NOT to get shot." - Lucian

I'm gonna get on within a week of the launch of Gravity Daze/Rush. Even though I'm hyped to buy one (and I WILL buy one), I'm not quite sure why. The hardware itself looks awesome as hell. I also have an addiction to buying a new console every year and I hate the idea of there being games on the market that I can't play. I want it all. I just don't see any of the games offered on the VIta being "Must play". I'll pick up Gravity Daze and play that while I wait for the PSV killer app but if I had any common sense, I'd wait.



The Vita is technically a nice system just as the 3DS. But a handheld need good games. The Vita-Launch-Lineup is nice, but nothing many people will get excited about. Hope there will be more and better games in the future.

But if the Vita launch sales in europe and US will be as catastrophically as they had been in Japan I doubt we will see many more games for the Vita.

I'm tempted but I'm going to wait until at least August if not later to see how the future looks for the Vita once it's out in all territories.

I'm also going to wait and see how the market reacts to the card prices which I think are still a bit too expensive.



Try to be reasonable... its easier than you think...

Sorry still not convinced!



Switch!!!

I'm not sure- he gives a big list of all the handhelds he owned, but he only provides negative comments when talking about the DS/3DS and says almost wholly positive things about the Vita, while giving backhanded complements to the PS3 in the meantime ("almost as good as the PS3") - combined with his very strong opinions ("best handheld ever" after a month? Seriously?), he doesn't sound like a particularly credible source.

And what would those mysterious hardware advantages be that DS or 3DS have ?

 

Battery life for DS and ... ?

Just a question: Have you never played a super stardust game Or are you not sold on this particular entry to the franchise?

Because if you've never played it before, id argue super stardust was one of the best games on the psp as well as one of the most suitable games, its perfect for pick up and play, but also has lasting appeal, and is genuinely great fun. Now that theres two analog sticks, it should feel even better!

If you not sold on this particualar entry then id like to know why :? Because if i ever get a PSV this will be my first buy.

Id say get this instead of modnation racers!

My opinion might be a lil bias considering im a huge fan of the genre (big fan of geometry wars as well!!!)

I want it, and it looks like a LOT of fun, but it boils down to cost more than anything else:  do I have enough for it?  is it worth the asking price?  

I only played Super Stardust HD a little bit when I got it free from the Sony Apology dealie last year, but this looks like a great handheld game.
