stop giving me hope nick... :(

awesome! thanks dude.

how likely the fail is it really? Untill I hear about massive failure rates I tend not to worry and outside of very early hardware it's been good since. Also rumors going around now about a massive ps store redo making it less text intesive and more image based, also easier to find deals and search for games. nothing solid yet.

Thanks again man, and yes I did know it was you . that caused Bishopcruz to also get a copy so both of us have co-oping, I think we around... 15 or 16 atm if you've got a toon around that level or so hit us up if we are online(I mean steam is always on but I'm not always at my computer) and we'll do some 3 player co-op. fun ass game so far. picked up Trine and Singularity yesterday, thinking about beat hazard but we'll see. still hoping for a drop on bloodlines though.

I don't think too many will complain about how good they are if the 50 to 100 dollar price drop comes in, without a die shrink I figured this is what they needed to do.

Havn't bought anything yet but a friend of mine gifted me boarderlands Yes Vampire is awesome and worth getting but I"m debating to wait just in case there is a daily sale. not a whole lot I'm after this time out though.

it's only hard if your scamco... sigh or NOA

Great OT bin, I love gog, got a few games on there.

game looks awesome!

http://www.computerandvideogames.com/307548/news/sony-ps-vita-matching-ps3-product-pipeline/ good to see they will at least try to avoid some problems the psp had.

he's comparing it to the 3ds, count me as surpised if they do something else but I get the feeling that they think the 3ds model is good enough, that gives plenty of freedom to 3rd parties to do whatever the fuck they want. we'll see.

and NOE says we are still at friend codes.... wtf does Nintendo have against a normal system?

my love for you grows with each passing day =)

This is for nick about 2 minutes in http://www.gametrailers.com/video/e3-2011-wii-u/716198 LOL @ nintendo /cry :(

Again Sony has always sold at a loss and outside the insanity of the ps3 it's always worked well for them(also remember we are talking loss at launch not forever) The trick is not to take an insane loss(wasn't the ps3 rumored to cost double to make?) I'm not worried about something that has only failed once and that was due to complete craziness.

Yup, btw on the of the money losing stuff, First off it's all off the shelf parts(yes even the oled, off the shelf) so the price will drop very fast on the backend. 2. they have always launched as loss leaders and it worked for 3 our of 4 systems(psp sold 70 million... made sony money) the ps3's big problem was the insane cost to make the damn thing and it's out of box cost for us. 3. confliting reports on if they are losing money, personally I think they lose a bit on the 250, and make a little bit or break even on the 300 and plan to make it up in sales like they have done and it has worked before. 4. Games prices are pretty much out now on gamestop(they got the 3ds prices right and know shit we don't) 40 bucks means no increase from psp and with a bit of luck we'll get more and more psn sales and price drops! 5. I said this in the e3 thread for JAY but I understand you can order hardware from amazon US so you can get a reg price vita from there, games are easier to get from the UK I understand. region free is amazing btw! Sony is playing for keeps and nintendo screwing up the 3ds launch gives them a huge in, I still think they need to launch this year in US/Jap though.

2 words, psn and ps suite, you can make all kinds of games from big AAA titles, psn fun little titles, and hell even ios type shit!. thats the real beauty of this thing, it can do all kinds of gaming, and if the ps suite is like they said you'll be able to buy all kinds of games and even some apps for it, fuck the ps3, This thing will really do everything. edit* Also look at the line up of games they showed off, it's got something for just about everyone. Sony needs to keep that up and they seem to understand that, for now.

Look at what they said, looking into 2 tablets on one system? looking?? come on man, that should have been worked out early in the dev documents for this system, not something they are looking at. now I think it's partly a bandwith issues but who knows and they might work it out, but I think if they had they would have showed something on it already. btw I dunno if george said this but he thinks this could be dreamcast all over again(minus the whole company going software only thing)

on the psn stuff, they havn't said, it's possible it'll need to be recomplied for vita(different system require different programing sdk) but from the event in feb. The dev's were saying most porting only took a few weeks to get done so it might be fine. BTW one reason for vita/ps3 bundles is they use the same assests(which is a huge money saver) golden abyss uses a ton of stuff from uncharted 1 which makes it much easier and cheaper to make the game. that plus ease of porting and every engine having an vita version gives me hope.

Show me where Nintendo has stated that it uses multiple tablets? They've shown nothing about that at all, it was in the 3rd party video that said that, they also said you could play in bed which would only happen if the unit is in your bedroom, since you can't take it around the house. As for it doing well or poorly... man I agree that shit is hard to call sometimes, sure fire winners seem to fail and dumb shit rises... That said this won't sell like the wii, it's very hard to catch lighting in a bottle twice(ask every company in this industry about that.) Part of the problem was is they need to work on their message for this thing, the confernce was kinda muddled(all the people on gaf who thought it would be for wii) and the fact that so many of those mom's and dad's who bought wii ended up putting them away. In their favor I think Nintendo knows this and thats why they are after the hardcore gamer again.

note I said not all wrong, not all right,

Also remember the other thing on this, while sony will get the blame for it it's really up to the publisher about how they want to do bundles, that said we saw the first thing with portal 2, also metal gear HD is said to come with a dl could for pw on psp(at least in japan is confirmend.) If pubs see it increases sales it'll be added, or they might do a 2 for one deal as well maybe 70 buck for both games or something. I think we'll see several different ways while pubs figure out what works best. Now I just need a steam client for this thing and I"ll be happy :P edit- oh god, you know what someone will try? as part of collecters editions, like buy this set and you'll get the ngp version. There's also the question of buying say... super star dust, do I need to buy 2 on psn or just one? mini's and ps1 is only a one time buy so I'm hoping that holds out for psn games(might need to be recompiled though)

Yes wiimotes will work and it's looking like you'll need them :/ after some digging it looks like for now at least there will be only one tablet per controller with mulit player needing wii motes but they did say they would look at maybe adding a second controller. Also nintendo PR said that you can't buy the controller separate from the console.. WTF if thats true I have no idea but that kills so many cool ideas and destroys local mulitplayer for anything other then wii type games. I'm still kinda underwhelmed by this, I'll need to hold a controller and look at the games coming out for it. Will I pick one up? at some point I will due to the fact I'll want to play Zelda, mario, metroid. I don't know that this will do as well as the wii though, but as with all things we need to see how games really use this.

is this cause that crazy guy tried to compare it to the holocaust? BTW what he said wasn't all wrong he just choose the absolute worst thing you could pick as a comparison(well I guess baby eating would be worse but also stupid.) Me I say it's like the empire blowing up aldarraan!
