Love the premise and tunes, still can’t play it and have even less chance with smaller sticks and screen.</p> <p>Uncharted – Love the series and really enjoyed what I played I have to admit. V impressive to be holding it in your hands.</p> <p>Little Deviants – Can’t say it grabbed but showed of the rear touch and other controls I suppose. A nice diversion but hardly essential.</p> <p>Browser was glacially slow and they had no other PSN games on to play. Really really wanted to have a go on Motorstorm.</p> <p>Which overall all sounds very positive. It is undoubtedly another great bit of tech from Sony but I just can’t bring myself to shell out $400+ on it at the moment, it is just too pricey. Maybe in a few months with better deals and some more games.</p> <p>Or maybe I’ll just snap and go mad on launch day... ;o) </p> http://www.vg247.com/forum/topic.php?id=5394&page=2#post-30432 Fri, 27 Jan 2012 19:07:22 +0000 RedEyedDroid 30432@http://www.vg247.com/forum/ <p>Well I would say wait for Sunday anyway. They're having a weekly tournament. Tournaments typically equal prizes lol. I wish I could tell you a concrete time, but all I know right now is that it's open in the afternoon. I'll hunt around for a more certain answer on the hours. -<br /> <a href="http://us.playstation.com/psn/events/vitahillsocialclub.html" rel="nofollow">http://us.playstation.com/psn/events/vitahillsocialclub.html</a> (click on the New York link to see the special events that will be going on.) </p> http://www.vg247.com/forum/topic.php?id=5394&page=2#post-30416 Fri, 27 Jan 2012 14:47:06 +0000 Len 30416@http://www.vg247.com/forum/ <p>RED - Are these open all day at the weekend or still just 5.30 – 8.30pm? </p> <p>Really fancy going this weekend as getting there during the week is looking pretty futile at the moment. </p> http://www.vg247.com/forum/topic.php?id=5394&page=2#post-30376 Thu, 26 Jan 2012 18:54:03 +0000 RedEyedDroid 30376@http://www.vg247.com/forum/ <p>Yeah FIFA will be getting a lot of solid playing time out of me.

Looks like it is ready for take off in Japan, finally. Tomorrow sees the launch of Tales of Innocence R and, after that, there's pretty much a decent title a week out of the next couple of months....</p> <p>Jan 26Tales of Innocence R<br /> Feb 2 Ragnarok Odyssey<br /> Feb 9 Gravity Daze<br /> Feb 9 Sumioni<br /> Feb 23 Ninja Gaiden Sigma Plus<br /> Mar 8 Unit 13<br /> Mar 15 FIFA Soccer</p> <p>There are others, but these are the games that should help the Vita shift a bit. If sales don't pick up during this period (I think Sony would settle for 50,000+ units a week) then you'd have to start looking at a price drop to get things moving again.

But if it's any help, at least we're only dealing in days now and not weeks. A timer is a cool idea. Unfortunately I'm not a direct employee of Sony, just for a company closely associated with them, so there's not much I can do in that arena. But if I leaked any info I'd no longer be an employee of EITHER company lol</p> <p>As far as the freebies promo you heard about at the Sony shop on Madison, this is the first I'm hearing of it. That might be something specific to that shop, but I have nothing to do with it.</p> <p>Just hold on a little longer buddy lol :) </p> http://www.vg247.com/forum/topic.php?id=5394#post-30107 Tue, 10 Jan 2012 20:41:58 +0000 Patrick Garratt 30107@http://www.vg247.com/forum/ <p>I got my promo unit today.
