Sumioni: Demon Arts drawn to digital Vita release March 20
Mar 3rd 2012 11:46AM (Joystiq)Sony VP in UK and Ireland talks Vita pricing, says bigger memory cards on the way
Feb 23rd 2012 1:34PM (Joystiq)Exactly what he said. For $20 you save your state for every game that will ever be made for the vita, and by that time other cards will be cheaper. Need more space for a few PSN titles? The 8gb is only $30.
People are complaining for the sake of complaining. No one is forcing you to buy the 32 gb card. What's funny is that these are the same people that buy iphones and ipods and ipads that charge an extra $100 for sometimes just 16 gb between models.

Jan 27th 2012 10:40AM (Joystiq)Actually I take that back saints row did something similar with costume packs right at launch. Ugh....gaming industry! You're letting us all down.
Unit 13 is a portable shooter from SOCOM dev, 'right around Vita launch'

Nintendo, EA, Sony sponsor Internet censorship bill [update]
Nov 18th 2011 2:03PM (Joystiq)I think it is ludicrous people are saying they won't be purchasing anything from Sony, Nintendo, or EA again. If you are that easily offended you may want to stop buying any product from any company because at some point or another they have all done something shady.
Never forget these companies employ hundreds of thousands of people and yet only a handful make these decisions. If you stop buying products from them it only hurts the person making $15 and hour trying to feed his or her family. Buy products because they are good products not because of the political ideas of that company.
Next time you go to the grocery store be careful! That box of cereal could be from a CEO that hates the internet, wouldn't want to support him.
Sonic Generations review: Run-time compiler
Nov 2nd 2011 6:39AM (Joystiq)CRT Televisions measured response times in nanoseconds, literally about 100,000 faster than the average response time of a LCD (about 2 milliseconds). For me that is why Sonic is not enjoyable anymore on a 2D plane. The game simply moves too fast for modern displays to keep up with everything on screen. Although Plasma displays come closest to the performance of CRT.
There may be those that aren't sensitive to this effect, however, and more power to you.
Battlefield 3 will employ Online Pass, required for multiplayer
Oct 14th 2011 4:04PM (Joystiq)I am with you on DLC and PreOrder bonuses, but fail to see how an online pass is greedy and cost you extra money. As long as you buy it new it's free.
But day one DLC and all the Preorder exclusives need to stop they are doing nothing but tarnishing the game industry. If Robin is available day one for Arkham City for those that buy it at Best Buy, then put him in the game for everybody, even if that is a code that you only get for buying it new.
Battlefield 3 will employ Online Pass, required for multiplayer
Oct 14th 2011 3:57PM (Joystiq)Nobody is forcing you to do anything to play online. You have a choice if you want to play online, either buy the game new, WHICH IS WHAT YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO DO!!!, or buy the online pass after you stole or pirated the game. So stop being bums and pay for the game. Developers aren't making games for charity, and if you want more games from them you need to buy from them.
It's funny everytime this comes up you can tell who buys games new and who pirates or buys used all the time. If you buy the game new, no matter the price, you will be fine.
Batman: Arkham City review: A world of difference
Oct 14th 2011 2:00PM (Joystiq)As for enjoying the present. I am! ICO Collection, Rochard, and soon Battlefield 3 and Uncharted 3! Before you say anything about GOTY for UC3, I could care less about it because if it is like the last one it will feature mostly multiplayer content that I don't care about.
In other words I have the time and the patience to wait for the better edition at a far cheaper price.
