I am trying to decide if I should buy it or not too. May just wait for physical to be 20 or lower....

You could go cart, but you have the obvious X-2 issue, and also, do you want a 75 - 100 hour cart in your Vita at all times.

I was wondering if Xmas time would give us a good deal on it, but even for cheap, the above issue remain.

In a way, I think our society is a toxic environment for people with mental health issues. So many expectations, so many people who don't understand and way too many people who don't take it seriously until it's too late.

Problem is, unless you have suffered from depression yourself... you'll never understand. You can't understand what you can't feel.

Would we be having this debate if it had been cancer? Would his net worth have mattered then?
 
sad to hear about Robin Williams.  I enjoyed many of his movies and was lucky enough to catch his stand-up at Mohegan a couple years back, he always was able to make me laugh.  He will be missed.

Yes, could have bought a cure depending the cancer, and or gave him a great ride on the way out.

 
[quote name="MyWorstNightmare" post="12001244" timestamp="1407801529"]Pete, if you're (happy Crunchy-Patooee?) out there, can you chime in on FFX on Vita?[/quote]

sure did, was 1000% satisfied. load times were good, looked good, played good, and the convenience of being able to just pause and pick up the next day is unbeatable.

Quoted since it seemed like you missed it.

Thanks for chiming in. This about seals it. Was there any touch screen or back touch pad added to it, or is everything mapped to buttons?

If so much is audio, I wonder why they even went with 20% text.

Hey, on the PS3 version, does it use the L2 and R2, (or L3 and R3 for that matter) for anything?
Click to expand...
No idea, but all dialogue has subtitles which helps when you have to play with sound muted.

L3/r3 no

L2/r2 yes. You use it when battling to change party members and choose who you want an action to effect

Thats fine. But its my duty to make it known you are being an idiot. And if I ever see you, I will kick you in the balls.

I have a phantom of ToS already. I was going to buy it on my own so I could push it further down the backlog. You're probably going to just tell me to play the game I already have. Because you're a fucking douchebag asshole who makes smart decisions with his money.
 
MyWorstNightmare said:
Actually it would! I don't mean to monopolize your time, but I'm sure I can't be the only one on the fence. If you have time, that would be greatly appreciated. I put a 100 hours into FF13, but tough to do that anymore at home. But on a Vita, it might be easier to get through 100 hours, 20 minutes at a time. I just wonder about screen size, is there a lot of small reading, or is all the dialogue via audio?

I'll check on that stuff. Downloading now.

Hard to say, we are talking about 2 full games. If FF13 and FF13-2 were packaged, I can't see it going lower than 20. 15 maybe?

You can always go used, and get it for cheaper, but likely won't get FF10-2 with it.

PSplus is very unlikely. Square-enix provides us with PSplus games, but they really have a lot of games to choose from.

 
I can imagine someday at CAGCon, the PSN OT thread gathers for their sold out panel, and as soon as I walk on stage as the guest of honor, Matt kicks me in the balls and screams "That's for buying stupid JRPGs!"

You should start a PSN OT podcast so that we can all get internet famous like Cheapy/Wombat/Shipwreck and go to E3!

One like is not enough so here is an honorary like in the form of a quote.

What an idiot, play the game you already have!!! Same one!! And you can clear a slot. If it has stupid, grinding trophies...skip them.

No, I'm horrible with my own money. I'm good at taking care of other people's money though.

I think I'm worse than a game hoarder. Im a credit hoarder like its nobodys business.

PSN credit: $42

Gamestop Credit: $100ish

Bestbuy Credit: 200ish I think

Amazon Credit: $375

 
So when you're depressed, what are these "demons" like?  Are they like ghosts that fly around your room at night?  That shit would definitely scare me.

If the games were seperate though, FFX being on sale for 10.00, would you get it, knowing it won't go lower than that? Same for FFX-2.

Edit - it's probably different for you, as you regularly resell games, where as I don't. I at times wish I did, but I just can't be bothered to figure out how to do it.

I'm sure Vig has you beat here. I'm always jealous of guys with lots of credit at stores, but I'm just too lazy to build it. For a while when BB had some real good trade in values I was up to about $200 just in my person trade-ins.

Right now I got $19.80 at Best Buy, $29 on PSN, and $0 everywhere else.

Ok, not to go away from depressing talk, but have a question. Don't take it as a hint or anything.
Does anyone have any tips for keeping a white console clean and not looking dusty all the time? When I had a site 360 back in the day, I felt like I was always having to clean it or else it looked like shit.

I dust my console like I do all electronics. With a duster and everything

I can come by once a week and put a nice fresh coat of something to keep it pearl white.

I've put in a few hours and am pretty fucking impressed by it. It doesn't look quite as good as the PS3 version, but it controls and runs great. You're absolutely right, its great to be able to play it for short spurts and easily pause your progress, only to pick right up later whenever its convenient.

But I need a fix, man!

If you want to free up a slot, you can use my resell whenever you want to actually play it. I won't be playing it for another 5 years or so.

I used to do some mad flipping back in the heyday of BBV insane TIVs, but then I got too old to spend so much time managing it. Now I am too lazy to really sell my old games. I've been thinking of just donating them.
