Forums - Gaming - So, I just ordered a Vita

ThatGreekGuy on 08 September 2013

As an owner of the Vita I have to totally recommend these games:
Persona 4 Golden (Amazing, amazing story, best game on the Vita yet, starts off slow, is amazing once you get into it though)
Gravity Rush (really good game with a great story)
Assassin's Creed 3 Liberation (Good but not as amazing as expected to be)
If you like fighting games:
Mortal Kombat
Dead or Alive 5 +
Street Fighter x Tekken
Marvel vs Capcom 3
Also:
Need For Speed on the Vita is a good addition.
I have to recommend buying PS+ and also you should get PSP games from the PS Store, really good games!

I recommend Gravity Rush(free with plus), Little Big Planet, Killzone Mercenary, Virtue's Last Reward, Rayman games vita versions were very good, Persona 4 Golden, the awesome BlazBlue Continuum Shift Extend (there are also other good fighting games), Uncharted Golden Abyss (free with plus), Atelier series games (JRPG) came to vita and they must be new for you, since you like SEGA I've heard sonic all stars racing was a very good port. Wipeout 2048 on Vita is amazing!

PSP must have games playable on Vita: Dissidia FF,  Persona 3 Portable, The Legend of heroes games, Jeanne d'arc, Valkyria Chronicles 2, MGS:PW playable with two analog sticks....

I just didn't want to post every game but wanted to make a short list. I suggest you to search for the best deal out there for a SINGLE 32GB memory card, no less!

Consider Buying a Hand-grip (I use a HORI but sanded down sharp edges and glued for a medium long (and perfect for me) grips for longer game sessions, you will love that!

I guess we will wait together for PSO2 localization :'-(

Sorry for being too long, have a nice day!

PS: Never do gamesharing (like some people do on forums) because it is against the contract and is not nice having the account full of games DELETED. Sony is strict about that (and of course they are right).

How big, size-wise, are the games? And do Sony require you to only buy their own memory cards?

About game-sharing: what exactly does that entail?

Also! Are there any Genesis collection!?


Some games are close to 4GB! Blazblue was 3,3GB even some psn games after patches (escaple plan) becomes BIG!

If you don't know about game sharing don't care about that, just don't give your account id and password to anyone!

Memory cards ARE PROPRIETARY and PRICEY, search on the net for a good price, I got 32GB at at launch (importend from JAP since wasn't in europe) and I'm ok with that, I will probably never buy another one. (You will probably pay half the price I have paid XD)

About genesis collections I don't know, but there is also psp crazy taxy playable on vita but you need a ps3 to transfer that because it's not on the ps vita store.

A good way to browse the PS Store is with your PC!  https://store.sonyentertainmentnetwork.com/

there is only a sega mega drive collection! (PSP game)


I found a proprietary card, 32GB, for 95$ (new). Is that a good price?

Not sure, not bad but search more if you like. (I payed 120EUROS!!! LOL)



Persona 5 on PS3, I won't need next gen!

So I would like your advice on games to get for the Vita. I am only interested in digital downloads, and will probaby get PS+. So, what games are really good on Playstation Vita? :)

Since you're in Europe, if you get PS+ you can right away DL Uncharted: Golden Abyss, Gravity Rush, New Little Kings Story, Jak and Daxter Trilogy and Urban Trial Freestyle.

Having never owned a Sony gaming machine, I just ordered a Playstation Vita!

I am a Sega/MS guy, never liked Nintendos games, and few Sony games have got be excited, besides Wipeout and God of War. But maybe it is time to expnad my gaming collection? So I would like your advice on games to get for the Vita. I am only interested in digital downloads, and will probaby get PS+. So, what games are really good on Playstation Vita? :)

It's what I've been doing. I have lots of Ps3 games, but as i get older i am more inclined to try games out that I would have never ever considered before. I think getting PS+ is great for that. I am currently playing New Little Kings story, and I would never have played that before :)

I got this one.  Cheap as heck, only $6 on amazon, but it makes a huge improvement.

Also, watch some tips and tricks videos on youtube.  You'll learn some stuff you might have missed.

Is Batman Blackgate a new game? i.e not tied to the console version?
