Seeing as if no one buys the original "fat" version there will not be a slim due to low sales :/.
Its pretty ridiculous. Just buy it when you can afford it. If and when a revision comes out trade in you old one for it.
Almost forgot about that...
KZ2 had some epic MP innovations that were stripped from KZ3. Espeacially the Spawn Grenades. WTF GG?!?! They were the best advancement of FPS genre in my opinion. Tactitian was my favorite job class. I thought KZ3 was going a step in the right direction but then i realized now its like any other shooter :/. After I platinum KZ3's story I will be trading it in towards R3 which I have personally always been a tad more invested in that story but the fact ...
I know how you feel. After taking the time to reflect, KZ3 did feel rushed to market to me. It seems like they spent more time trying to create a "roller coaster" like eperience with the 3D then telling a well focused story for the SP. MP was great but I am bigger on story. Not to mention the Final Boss fight was a horrible follow up to the epic battle we had with Radec in the first game. I beat the game sitting there just wondering "really? what that IT?". KZ series needs...
People always talk about how Demon's Souls is good because it brings a sense of being rewarded back to gaming. I am just saying Trophies play into that same mold.
I can't tell you how ultimately satisfying it is to know I have beaten a game backwards and forwards. I spent 200 extra hours in FFXIII just to unlock EVERYTHING which in turn gave me a Platinum. Its that extra bit of challenge they give me that keeps me dying for more of them. That, and my pack rat/OCD issu...
Trophies/Achievements are the best invention of this generation if you ask me. They create a sense of playing a game within a game. They are the ultimate social game where you are trying to increase your score(a staple of almost every early arcade game). I mean if you want to argue semantics what is the point of playing any game with a point system? For that matter whats the point of playing games at all?? BECAUSE ITS FUN!!!!
Trophies make the simple fact you are playing a ga...
The fluidity of the animations in this game are mindblowing. This is definitely the game to watch out for. Its new, its different, and it seemingly utilizes the exclusive benefits of the Vita. It is basically what many of us want in a new Vita IP.
Will be getting my vita(haven't decided wifi or 3g yet) alongside Super Stardust Delta and Escape plan. Holding off on Uncharted:GA till Sony snaps the f*ck out of it and lowers the price to standard(39.99) or possible will get ...
I only buy games that I feel are keepers for life, at least only those at full price. Any other games I will get for 30 or less which if I wanted to trade them in would be chump change anyway(2-4 dollars most of the time) by which i would just keep them. I like building a collection of sorts which you can't do if you sell my games all the time. I
always found that mentality which has been ushered in this generation fairly stupid. Why buy a game for $60 just to turn around an...
I think the fact 3DS did that price drop will have some ramifications for Vita. I believe some consumers who might have normally purchased it 1st day are now going to wait 6 months rather than be burned by a price drop shortly after.
Personally I will adopt early, hopefully day 1. It is consumers like myself that drive markets because if everyone waited for the cheaper price, it would immediately tank. I am disappointed with two things at US launch tho....
-Uncharted:...
You are forgetting that this is also at a higher price point for Vita. Which all in all means it is doing fine.
P.S. I thought I heard 3DS did 371k in the first Week(as Nintendo released on a Sunday the beginning of the week while Vita was on a Friday or whatever).
Correction, Resident Evil Revelations (3DS) is actually 49.99. So far Uncharted is the only game on Vita to debut at that price, hopefully the last.
I do agree that NO portable device game should EVER pass the 39.99(unless its a CE or LE of some sort). Developers wonder why people on average buy less games a year. It is because game prices keep going up every gen, its outrageous. Yes, some games find massive success but most get forgotten regardless of it's caliber becaus...
Killasder has a point. Large price cuts(around $100) usually incite massive sales of about 300% for at least a few months. For every dollar dropped is a door opening to another consumer looking to purchase the hardware but not as much money to spend. This is true for all consoles. These types of price drops usually instigate a big surge then level out again until next drop.
Little Big Planet is infinitely better than any rehashed Mario game of late. LBP adds so much variety in play style it is unparalleled by any other game.
Defending of FFXIII is just becoming futile to the willingly ignorant.
FFXIII was not the worse game in existance by far, but it has many and I mean MANY shortcomings that left many die hard FF fans feeling robbed.
1. FFXIII first off most DEFINITELY lost massive amounts of content due to the 360. The entire game pipeline was thrown off due to moneyhatting going on behind the scenes. Proof? Look no further than the many interviews with SE during the whole deb...
LMAO this is why Lili and Asuka are my favs. They are both so badass but hate each other's guts. IT is only seconded to Heihachi and Kazuya's rivalry/tag team performance.
I see me devastating many with Asuka/Lili tag team super duo.
I do not have an issue with them making spin offs, but it has gotten completely out of hand.

That is FOUR fucking spinoffs since the second main title. The only ones that should have ever existed was Days(because many were fasinated by OrgXIII so give that to fans) and BBS(because this was actually the prophesized story in the 2nd game's secret ending and the plot + Gameplay were awesome). ...
Under the premise that all Digital Downloaded games will be 10-15 dollars off normal retail price....I will officially be buying all my games as DD along with the 16GB memory stick to put them on. I think DD is the way to go at least for A portable gaming device.
@gamingdroid
Its not a question of whether they can find a purpose for the Vita, we are talking about price/value. Yes, you are totally correct about what the casuals see/ignore but we are talking the hardcore who troll these forums and make these flambait articles.
I feel that the Vita has perfectly positioned itself between gaming handheld and multimedia device, the 3DS and smartphone/ipads respectfully. I would like to challenge anyone who is a serious gam...
The point is the Vita is indeed "Selling out" in the basic sense of the word. Do you really think that when the wii was sold out for all those years there was literally not ONE Wii somewhere in stores......NO! The idea is that some will be sold out completely, others will have a few or more left but that just means buyers have to look a bit harder to find the right store who has stock.
I used to work at gamestop and when the Wii was selling like hotcakes and we were...
regardless of how the last battle turned out, I still feel like PSP had better games. At least for me.
Jeanne D'Arc,Disgaea:AoD, KH:BBS, FFT:WOTL, Dissidia 012, Patapon, PS1 classics, PS Minis like WHo's That Flying?, etc.
I was envious of Pokemon but it ends about their on DS.
Estimated Lifetime sales
PS3:2.5 million
360:500-750k
Total: 2.5-3 million
Which is good but very poor for a main FF game. Just bring us Versus already for crying out loud. That will assuredly do at least 5mill on PS3 alone (More if the atrocity that is XIII hasn't tarnished the name to complete oblivion).
