Bragging about cloud saving being only on PS3 should have been cut now that Microsoft said earlier that they're doing it too.

So Vita's the thing's real name, huh? Great...

And they're talking about a game I couldn't care less about on Vita: ModNation Racers.

At least I get to watch a little of the conference live, though I'm sad I missed the Sly 4 formal reveal. I'll look for the footage posted online later. I have the "Apology" to watch as well.

More options! Some of the painting looks easier.

easier than holding left?

I'm all for options, but these ones were put in a game that didn't require or need them.... atleast not in the place they used them But to each their own. It doesn't hurt the game to have that option but hopefully they will come up with better ideas with future games.

touchscreen on front and touchpad on back has a lot of potential. Sony just needs to be a little more creative.

broodwars · « **Reply #378 on:** June 06, 2011, 09:43:45 PM »

This is pretty much the exact same demo they did for ModNation Racers PS3 a few years back, and it was boring then too.

You only have to paint once.

I agree with BnM. Uncharted 2 has some of the best controls for a platformer and Vita doesn't improve on it. It just does it's own thing...which is weird.

BranDonk Kong · « **Reply #381 on:** June 06, 2011, 09:45:57 PM »

How can you be more creative than putting analog sticks on your system, adding front and rear cameras, and adding a touch screen? Clearly none of these technologies existed until Sony invented them.

Ars Technica live blog is claiming price will be announced at $250 for wifi version of Vita, and $300 for 3G. Speculation or reasonable possibility?

Kotaku says the same thing, and that they got that info from Sony PR.

BranDonk Kong · « **Reply #384 on:** June 06, 2011, 09:48:31 PM »

Holy **** Street Fighter X Tekken.

BlackNMild2k1 · « **Reply #385 on:** June 06, 2011, 09:48:51 PM »

It's very reasonable. 3DS is WAAAAAY overpriced.

Nintendo could probably make a $30 profit on every 3DS sold at $199.99

FZeroBoyo · « **Reply #386 on:** June 06, 2011, 09:49:16 PM »

Street Fighter X Tekken.

And Ono-san!

BranDonk Kong · « **Reply #387 on:** June 06, 2011, 09:49:49 PM »

Listen, I love gay people, but isn't it kind of weird that almost everyone talking in Sony's conference is gay? Just odd. Nothing wrong with it.

kraken613 · « **Reply #388 on:** June 06, 2011, 09:50:04 PM »

If that is going to be the price of this I am for sure going to wait to buy a 3DS because it will have a nice price drop before this comes out.

Dasmos · « **Reply #389 on:** June 06, 2011, 09:50:42 PM »

Capcom is making a Smash Bros.

broodwars · « **Reply #390 on:** June 06, 2011, 09:50:56 PM »

Only Japan is going to care about Street Fighter x Tekken being on PS Vita. Everyone else will just play it on PS3 or 360. Having Infamous' Cole in the game is cool, though.

BlackNMild2k1 · « **Reply #391 on:** June 06, 2011, 09:52:18 PM »

Sony supposedly downgraded the RAM in Vita too just so they could get the price down to something competitive.

and part of the Wifi version may be subsidized by the 3G versions with the contracts... if there are contracts.

NWR_insanolord · « **Reply #392 on:** June 06, 2011, 09:55:25 PM »

For $250, consider me onboard for launch. I never owned a PSP, so the BC means I have a lot of things to play right from the start.

lol at the dude looking like a robot with his arms locked.

I didn't notice until you mentioned this. Once I saw it, I couldn't unsee it. That was so distraction. I couldn't pay attention to anything else. Thanks for that.

BlackNMild2k1 · « **Reply #394 on:** June 06, 2011, 09:57:10 PM »

$249.99 Wifi is official
$299.99 3G/Wifi is official too.

Now that is something to be excited over. Nintendo now needs to respond with a 3DS price drop 1 week before PSV launch.

FZeroBoyo · « **Reply #395 on:** June 06, 2011, 09:57:41 PM »

Same price tag as 3DS for Wi-Fi model. Might be on board, since there are some PSP games I'd like to pick up.

broodwars · « **Reply #396 on:** June 06, 2011, 09:58:20 PM »

The PSP Wi-Fi version is priced the same as the 3DS, and the 3G version is only $40 more. Sony may have just fired a pretty damaging shot at Nintendo. I'll probably pick up a Vita for that, especially since my digital PSP games will transfer over.

Enner · « **Reply #397 on:** June 06, 2011, 09:58:41 PM »

US$250 for the Wi Fi only Vita. That is a hell of a price.

Adrock · « **Reply #398 on:** June 06, 2011, 09:58:52 PM »

I still don't think Nintendo is worried about the price. They're launching Ocarina of Time in a few weeks. Mario Kart in Q4, possibly even Mario 3DS. They'll be fine.

I'll pass on Vita, just as I passed on 3DS.

kraken613 · « **Reply #399 on:** June 06, 2011, 09:59:12 PM »

There was more I was interested in this than there was in Microsoft for me.

CAN'T WAIT FOR NINTENDO THOUGH! I will be at school though....

Damn exams!!!!!!!!!!!!
