Not a bad lineup at all. Its not super amazing but its not poor either.

Hopefully a start for a turn around for the PSV outside of Japan.

Neonridr4419d ago

Not much that jumps out at me here. 2 of the larger titles that are coming are just re-releases of PS2 games, no thanks. Borderlands I have heard bad things about, but will wait to see what the reviews look like, although I could get a richer experience on consoles or PC probably for cheaper if I wanted to.

Swapper is really the only game that interets me, so I will check that out possibly when it comes closer, although it mentions PS4 support, so I may just get it for the console instead.

randomass1714419d ago

Hate to say it but I agree somewhat. Most of what I want to play in this list I already have on the PS3 (that which being Borderlands 2 and Sly collection). I might check out those lower profile games though.

vergilxx34418d ago

yeah you could..
but you can as well forget about portability then

Neonridr4418d ago

so you are saying I should pay more for a game I could get cheaper elsewhere with better graphics and more content just because I can play it on my toilet? :P

I get what you are saying, but if I want to play Borderlands 2, I want the best experience possible. From what I have heard, that best experience isn't the Vita version.

vergilxx34418d ago

Did I say you have to pay for it ?
No
All I said that if you want portability you have to pay more because that's how it works you always have to pay more for portable things

Neonridr4418d ago

I was only joking there, that's why I put the guy sticking his tongue out, wasn't trying to offend.

Team_Litt4418d ago

8 games, 6 of which are ports, SIX! And one Street Fighter-esque Ultimate version. So a total of 1 brand new game.
New generation indeed.

dcj05244418d ago

Feburary March and April had quite a few new games.

ruefrak4418d ago

This is insane. Port, not a port, I don't care. These are a lot of great games coming to the Vita. I also don't care if a bunch of games that have been available on Steam for over year come to the Vita, because I haven't played them.

I wonder if Nintendo suffers from this problem. "It's just a prettier version of Super Mario Bros. Just another port of Super Mario 64. Great, Mario Kart again..."

Neonridr4418d ago (Edited 4418d ago )

The 3DS has 2 remakes of older games. Star Fox and Ocarina of Time. The Wii U has exactly ONE HD port, Wind Waker. So no, to answer your question they don't suffer from this problem because while another Mario Kart releases, it's still a brand new game different from the last one.

And you don't care if you can get a game on steam for like $5 but you could buy it "new" on the Vita for $30? Sound logic there.

I Sure Hope The Next Borderlands Is A Lot Like Borderlands 2

Ahmad from eXputer: "Borderlands 2's unrivaled storytelling is something that has to lean into the core elements of the next iteration in the Borderlands series."

TheNamelessOne650d ago

What? You didn't love the cringe writing that 3 had?

pwnmaster3000650d ago

Playing it now and it’s not so bad, but I’ve just started so maybe it will get worse

DustMan649d ago

It's not bad. It's just hard to top Handsome Jack as an antagonist. I really enjoyed 3. It has the best gameplay of the entire series, and it holds the same vibe. Tiny Tina's Wonderland was a huge disappointment to me.

Demetrius649d ago

I recently finished 3, definitely had fun fr

-Foxtrot650d ago

I'm curious how they are going to do the Siren since they've kind of wrote themselves into a corner regarding the lore.

gold_drake650d ago

well, im sure the last eridium slab is the answer to that. either mystery or villain

-Foxtrot650d ago

I meant more in terms of how they established only 6 Sirens can exist in the entire Universe...which was kind of silly to me as they seem to all end up on Pandora, and the Universe is a pretty big place.

Then there's now the fact, since Borderlands 3 retconed it, when a Siren dies she can transfer her power to the next Siren, they don't have to be born with it. This also means there's only 6 Siren powers which will end up being recycled as the franchise goes on.

Phasewalk (Lilith)
Phaselock (Maya / Ava)
Phasetrance (Amara)
Phaseshift (Angel / Tannis)
Phaseleech (Tyreen)

So there's only one power unaccounted for and I'm guessing it belonged to Commandant Steele. There was Queen Dido but she died and someone else like Amara, Maya or Angel could have gotten their powers so really it only gives them one more Siren before they need to start rethinking things going forward.

Either we get Phaseleech next or whatever power Commandant Steele had (kind of odd she never used it in her boss fight but you know).

Terry_B650d ago

inb4 the next siren is a trans character.

gold_drake650d ago

it will probably be alot like wonderlands, since that is the last borderlands game

but we'll see soon

Terry_B650d ago

Most people do. But the people that create the games don't seem to understand that.

I bet it will be even worse than BL3 when it comes to story and character designs.

RaidenBlack650d ago

Hey Gearbox, remember Brothers in Arms?

Abnor_Mal649d ago

I would love a new game in the series, or a remake/remaster of the first three games.

RaidenBlack649d ago

I'd want them to do the 4th part and just end the story of Baker Company.
