PSVita (Successor to PSP, was PSP2 then NGP)

Three tracks and five cars just doesn't add up to that price, even if it is lower. That's just above a demo these days. DLC like that is probably working well for them on the App Store but the base prices there are less than a fiver. The same model doesn't work at ?30. Sounds mostly like Namco have just lost it.

good point, i was thinking that myself - how can you release a game with 3 tracks in this day and age?

Hopefully they'll find out that you can't do that, not if you want decent sales at least. It's not even like with old Sega games where they built 3 briliant tracks instead of 20 mediocre ones since they're old tracks from games with a lot more than 3 tracks.

I waited for the original on the PS1 to come down to a tenner before I bought it, what do people think this is worth?

I thought one of the super duper things about the Vita was that you could easily port PS3 games to it? Or is that a myth?

Shirley they could've just loaded up RR7, pressed Ctrl+S and Bob's your proprietary storage medium?

First the ****ty 3ds game an now this. Ridge is moving backwards. I still love rr7 though.

Nice. The Wipeout box looks good.

I'm just gonna D/L Ridge Racer now.

Maybe if you set foot in a game store once and a while someone with a bit of sense would of told you not to bother.

[J0e Musashi]

Well if you have to D/L all of this DLC, I figured the whole game may as well be digital. No point having a cart.

Noticed the last game I designed before leaving has the concept video on the Vita Augmented Reality trailers. Its the Flick Ball (prototype) Not sure how different it will be when it comes out though.

I read on one website that the graphics chip can do 60 fps @ 640x480, I'm not sure if that means we won't see games at 60 fps or can the screen upscale lower resolutions or something? I assume we won't be seeing games with borders because it's displaying 640x480 on a screen with a higher resolution, but no upscaling!

[Mr M0by]

There's a few titles from Sony's launch list alone that I think I'll be buying on day one.

Uncharted: Golden Abyss
WipEout 2048
Everybody?s Golf
MotorStorm RC
Little Deviants
and maybe Escape Plan.

That said if the Vita does Remote Play of all PS3 titles & does it well then maybe I won't get Wipeout after all. Of course there's still the third party titles to consider too. Good job all I've asked of anyone for Christmas are hmv vouchers to pay for it all.

Either the website doesn't know what it's on about or that's been taken out of context. Pretty much any device can do 60fps at 640x480 but what you're displaying will affect the fps.

e.g. it could be a boring, spinning cube or it could be a level from Uncharted.

I think it might be talking about Remote Play, though.

The irony is I've just discovered I have around ?140 HMV credit... temptation rising again, lol

[teddymeow]

I. Am. Weak.

Reinstated my pre-order with NCSX as I realised I deserve a treat this Christmas.

Got an email from them saying they're switching all Wifi & 3G consoles to Wifi only as the JPN 3G isn't compatible elsewhere in the World (I'm guessing they mean the 100 hour card or maybe not).

My pre-order for an import unit is 100% cancelled. The Ridge news took the edge right off it for me. I still have an existing pre-order with GAME ... might be in the mood again by the time the UK one hits ... plenty of time for some good news to counter the bad.
