Re: PlayStation Plus (and the PS Store in general)

Lone Survivor! Brilliant. I'm almost certain I'll hate the game thanks to the horror aspects / backtracking but I'm drawn to the art style and have nearly bought it on several occasions. This is the perfect solution.

Re: Xbox One

It's an easier conclusion to reach than Microsoft wanting Xbox One to succeed, the way the launch and aftermath has been handled. I wonder how forgiving the gaming world will be? You're right though there's plenty of time for things to shift.

Re: Xbox One

What an absolute clusterfuck of a mess this console is, the launch has been handled with staggering ineptitude, U-turn after U-turn after U-turn. While I dislike Kinect and always disagreed with it being bundled in the box (not to mention the initial awful suggestion that it would need to be on and ...

Re: PlayStation Vita

Yeah it's way too slow and you have to press X half the time anyway at different conversation points.

Re: PlayStation Vita

Actually the button pressing is the one (tiny insignificant) thing I think I could criticise the game for, most games of the storytelling ilk let you use the touch screen rather than pressing X a thousand times during a conversation, slightly alleviating finger fatigue, but Persona doesn't. I think ...

Re: PlayStation Vita

Really enjoying Trigger Happy Havok: Dagonronpa at the moment. Right up my street being a huge fan of Persona 4, Virtue's Last Reward, and the Phoenix Wright games. It's like a cross between those that somehow feels fresh. I'm sure some of the voices have been on Persona...

Re: PlayStation Vita

Did Olli Olli take a while to 'click' with anyone else?

Not really getting on with the controls, doesn't seem too intuitive to me. Waiting for that addictiveness to kick in but not feeling it yet... Got it for £2.55 so won't cry too much if it stays this way. Will pick it up later and see.

Re: PlayStation Plus (and the PS Store in general)

Dammit. I'm at that stage Vita gamers get to where pretty much all the games that come out now I've already bought at some point. Picked up Stick it to the Man and Muramasa when they first came out.

Not to worry! Can't complain for the amount of amazing free games I've had thus far.

Re: PlayStation Plus (and the PS Store in general)

Is the Vita version a cross-play? I had the PS3 one a while ago but deleted it, much more into those games now though. Wouldn't mind downloading it on Vita if it's a freebie for me.

I really wasn't a fan of what I played. I don't understand the positive reviews surrounding it, but that may just be me.
I'm with you on this. Luckily I came to this opinion via the demo.

Re: Whatcha Been Playing?

Yeah, you could be right on the character front. I'm desperate to finish the case I'm on so I can set the game aside for now, I've got Trigger Happy Havok on Vita which I'm excited about trying, and looks to be of a similar note with a fresh take. It's strange, I really, really love the Phoenix Wrig...

Re: Whatcha Been Playing?

Decided to mount an attack on my pile of shame. Started by going back to Phoenix Wright 5 on the 3DS. It's... still not clicking. And I *love* this game series, so I'm not entirely sure what about this one I'm not liking. I've told myself I have to try to finish it before I'm allowed to move on to ...

Re: Fez

Yeah I listened to it (I remember that being one of the more love-in C&R casts come to think of it) but that lot more held zero interest for me, my mates were banging on about it at the time too. I just found the whole thing dull and vacuous. But like I say I can see it working better on Vita, a...
