Not really trophy hunting, but unless its a game I REALLY want to play, I hate buying games where I know I'll never have the ability (Or time) to Platinum it.

I'v done Dynasty Warrior games, and am close in a few SRPG's. But 500 hours is just damn insane for a game thats already pretty much dead.

Is COD worth 35?

Do all copies come with the DLC? I thought I saw some copies at Best Buy without a "12 DLC Characters for PS3" sticker on the front.

No its not. Buy the console version the Vita version sucks.

Decided to get SFXTekken and used a $5 reward zone coupon to knock it down to 20. Always wanted to buy it

When does this sale end?

Picked up MK. Couldn't pass it up at $9.99, thanks OP!

Why though? If you don't care or go after trophies, who cares if you can't platinum it?

No, god no. It's horrible. It's one of the most poorly reviewed Vita games for a good reason.

From the reviews I've read, it's not even worth $5. :\

MK is a must for $9.99

If you play it competitively on consoles, you can play just as competitive on the vita. Its as comfortable as playing with a controller.

And thanks for the input dgwillia006. I'm contemplating on getting ps+ now haha

Thinking hard about MK but I'm sure it will soon land on PSN+. Europe already got it.

Just personal preference. I go for some, I dont go for some. Sometimes I go way in my backlog and finish something, so I prefer not to have a ton of unplatinum-able games in it.

Is this sale going on through tomorrow?

SFxT arguably has more to do but fighting game enthusiasts tend to poop all over it and requires stricter timing overall. There's a boatload of characters to pick from on both so if you don't care about the online you can certainly find someone you like in either roster. For anyone on the fence about Smart As, I can now recommend it in earnest. I've been playing it tonight and I think it's super - the handwriting recognition is a bit rough but the games are cool and there's local (i.e. based on your location) challenges where you can compete in your neighborhood/city with others. It's a pretty excellent brain training game.

thanks for the info.. any advice as to Silent Hill? that is the other one i am contemplating

I got you.

For $25 it's a buy. That's what the price should have been. It has some good ideas, great style and is unique in it's own way. That said, I'm not a huge fan of grinding, and to have the easiest time with this game, you have to. You'll build a ritual to tackling each area, mine is to hunt for the save room, and immediately save. Then I slowly build my map, then I start gathering my pieces. It's a safe way to go about it, because being reckless will lead to frustration.

But anyway, I got it at launch, don't regret it but it isn't for everyone. But for $25 it is an easy rec. Just know that you will be frustrated at one point or another, and that it is stressful at times. But that's the point, in the old Resident Evil, holy shit I can't save right now/i'm out of items/slots sense.

im assuming this sale is also in stores, right? might pick up the street fighter x tekken. theres a code, right? that way my bro doesnt have to buy the characters on the ps3. also when does this sale end?

I prefer single-player games; would I still enjoy Book of Memories (I know there's a single-player mode, but from what gameplay I've seen, I got the sense that it was intended for multiplayer)?

SOLD lol
after my codes i got it for $5.29

SFxT.

UMvC3 has amazing graphics, but feels 'floaty'. I like to be like Bam BAM!!!!!! Not like I'm filled with helium. Not sure why I bought that game twice (PS3 Day 1 from the spend $20/get $40 Newegg/Google Offers deal and Vita version from GameStop pre-owned for $12.xx credit after using points for a $10 off coupon and 10% PUR) .

Guess I thought I'd, actually, play it on my Vita.
