[quote name='BlueScrote']Those of you with Vitas, what do you consider to be the must have games for it? [/QUOTE]

Persona 4 Golden.
Troy Baker.
Persona 4 Golden.
Laura Bailey.
Persona 4 Golden

Edit: What Hank said works as well. You get Gravity Rush, Uncharted, Wipeout, and a few other games with it.
 
[quote name='MoCiWe']Just maxed Sleeping Dogs (original game only), had a lot of fun with it. Time to start up Nightmare in North Point!



Wii U only here, Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate is easily my favorite game on the system. Mario and Lego City are both great as well, along with Zombi U. NintendoLand is a really fun game for local multi so if she'd play that with you that's a plus, since it has a lot of easier fun little mini games in it. Scribblenauts is a short game but those are usually pretty enjoyable as well, plus the Wii U version has some exclusive stuff in it (2 player mode and Nintendo characters).[/QUOTE]


Vita is awesome for fighters on the go and as a pocket PSone if you've got the digital library to back it up.

As far as newer titles go, my recommendations are pretty much just my libraries.

Vita:
LittleBigPlanet
MGSHD Collection
Mortal Kombat
Ragnarok Odyssey
Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3
Persona 4 Golden
Gravity Rush
PS Allstars
Stranger's Wrath HD
Uncharted: Golden Abyss

Any fighters on the list are the same thing as their sources. So far they're all just great ports that I enjoy having access to.


Far as the Wii U goes, my list stops at:

New Super Mario Bros 2
ZombiU
Lego City Undercover
Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate


My Wii U was bought as more of an anticipation. I know there will be games that I want coming out for it. As for what you'll be spending vs. what you can play today, I agree that the Vita is currently the better purchase.

Didn't mean to quote Mo, but I'm on my tablet and too lazy to fix it.
 
[quote name='Indignate']By that logic you should just ditch the Vita and play XIII-2 & Catherine.

No. Seriously. Do that.[/QUOTE]

But Persona 4 > Catherine.

Though Catherine is a fucking amazing game, so play it if you haven't done so!

Agreed on both counts. Catherine is great, and I really really wish it had a Vita counterpart. SS looks sick. I'll prolly grab the upoming Muramasa too just for DAT ART.

Lol, I was thinking what does that have to do with what I said? But yeah, I agree with the rest of what you said in that the Wii U will definitely be getting some big hitters on it eventually but the library isn't exactly huge right now.

Right, but his creation was before almost every other superhero existed, so it was actually really fresh and novel at the time. The only reason he's perceived that way now is because so many other characters have come out that are rip-offs of him.

I didn't say anything about those characters, I mean all superheroes. The reason we think of flying, super strength, super speed and the ability to fire projectiles as stereotypical or generic powers is because Superman was the first.

He is THE superhero.

Either, really.

If you want it for the story you'll be disappointed. It's like 80% block puzzles which I found disappointing.

I hear it's okay. I think it's easily worth the price and no install bug that I'm aware of. Haven't booted it up yet, though.

[quote name='panzerfaust']shooters don't get much more unappealing than a Resistance game. or was it Killzone. i haven't heard good things about either.[/QUOTE]
Killzone 3 is pretty boss. Very enjoyable campaign. Played some Resistance 1 awhile back, but did not enjoy very much. Going to give it a second try after liking Rayman, though. Frosty likes them, I think.

[quote name='BlueScrote']Those of you with Vitas, what do you consider to be the must have games for it?
[/QUOTE]

Vita propaganda:

Hmmm, I'll keep it to exclusives in the first list (these I've played):
Gravity Rush
Uncharted
WipEout 2048 (which if you have the PS3 WipEout HD+Fury gets you an insane amount of DLC)
LittleBigPlanet Vita
Dokuro (PSN)
Unit 13
Super Stardust Delta (PSN)
Lumines
escapeVektor (PSN)
Touch My Katamari (nothing ground breaking, but it's fun and it's Katamari on the go... neat tricks incorporated via trouch screen for squishing the ball in various ways)
Treasures of Montezuma Blitz (free! Plays like Bejewled, sorta.)

Part of why I like the system though is because it offers quality ports of PS3 titles I like and I can play them without needing a TV. Here's a list of other games with notes:

Mutant Blobs Attack (on Steam, but intended for Vita originally. Phenomenal.)
Rayman: Origins (console perfect, pretty much)
Sound Shapes (cross-buy on PS3, but developed for Vita originally; interesting music driven platformer... not a must buy for everyone, but it's worth if it you find it on sale)
Blazblue:CS2Ex (pretty much console perfect)
UMvC3 (again, 60fps, pretty much console perfect)
MK9 (gameplay is console perfect, all kontent, extra challenge tower with Vita gimmicks, character models and textures took a hit)
Sine Mora (pretty much the silky 60fps of the consoles/Steam; awesome game, great to have it portable)
Ninja Gaiden Sigma+ (it's okay if you're the kind of person who can deal with 30fps action games... some off-putting design choices regarding bow aiming, but a solid fix for action games on the go if you can handle the lower fps)
Zen Pinball 2 (cross-buy, solid arcade-y pinball title with lots of tables to choose from)
Urban Trial Freestyle (pretty competent Trials game on the go)
Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath HD (pretty much same as the PSN/Steam/XBLA but portable)
Sony Smash (if you own the game, it's pretty much the same thing and you already own it via cross-buy)
Motorstorm RC (if you liked the old Off-Road games, this is great, cross-buy with PS3)
Guacamelee! (phenomenal Metroidvania brawler -- I've put like 13 hours into it over the past two days and can't put it down. Cross buy with PS3)
Metal Gear Solid HD (transfarring if you own them on PS3 they play and look amazing)

Honorable mentions that aren't exactly "my" recommendations:
Hot Shots Golf (if you like the game, it's supposed to be wonderful)
P4G (the definitive version of Persona 4)
DoA5+ (if you like DoA5, it's supposed to be good)

Add in a bunch of PSP titles you can buy off PSN and PSOne games on the go.
Also, apparently Sony is making it an Indie machine, so it's getting a fuck ton of the indie games you'd see on Steam or something like that. There's a bunch on it with a bunch more coming. Nun Attack, Jetpack Joyride, Plants vs. Zombies, etc. Coming soon: Terraria, Frozen Synapse, Binding of Isaac remake, and a bunch of other shit I'm forgetting.

Another thing worth noting is that if you ever plan to pick up a PS4, all native games to PS4 are supposed to have remote play on this thing, making it like a WiiU gamepad for the PS4. Anything that's doesn't require Move or whatever, at least.

Also, if you have a PS+ sub, you get another 1gb of cloud storage for your Vita, auto-uploads, and of course, the IGC for Vita in addition to what you're already getting for PS3. Someone else already mentioned it, I think, but it's currently Gravity Rush, Uncharted, Tekken 6 PSP, Disgaea 3 Vita, and something else (or two) that I'm forgetting.

[quote name='panzerfaust']shooters don't get much more unappealing than a Resistance game. or was it Killzone. i haven't heard good things about either.[/QUOTE]

Depends on the person.

I've played Killzone 2 and 3 as well as Resistance 1-3 and Burning Skies on Vita.

The multi in Resistance 1-2 was competent. The multi in the two Killzone games was fantastic.

The campaigns in all of them leave something to be desired, but I actually really liked Resistance. First game I bought with my PS3 and I played the Hell out of it... platinum'ed it probably, if that were a thing, but I didn't do it for the trophies. I did it cause I liked it since trophies weren't even invented yet.

I'd rank every single one of these games above the games I've played from the Halo series (Halo 3, Halo: Reach) and I'd rather play anyone of them over a Halo game.

[quote name='YBX87']i am debating on picking up resistance 2 from the gamestop used-game clearance sale, is it good? the gameplay looks pretty crappy from the youtube videos. also does it have the same silly install bug like resistance 3?[/QUOTE]

I picked it up... September 2011? When GS had it for like $7 bucks. The campaign was average but probably the worst in the series... it's really janky and buggy. But where Resistance 2 shines is the multiplayer co-op. That mode was really fun. I had no problem playing the game enough that I ended up with all the co-op achievements in addition to the single player achievements. By this time, I had lost all desire to play TDM of any sort in shooters, so I skipped that mode entirely. I'm not sure how active the co-op is on that game these days, but considering it was a couple years old by the time I played it and I had no real problems finding a game -- it may still be kicking.

Yes. Soul Sacrifice looks amazing. It's supposed to be good via single player or multi -- and I love the whole entire concept and premise. Yes, it's a little bit Monster Hunter in that there are big bosses you can use multiplayer teams to take down, but the combat looks so much better than a MH game to me... faster paced, more variety in attacks, almost looks like a "souls" game to me. And as I said, I'm a sucker for magic and such and the idea of doing crazy shit like ripping out your own spine to pull off an attack called excalibur? The monster designs? The sacrifice/saving leveling (and unlock) mechanic... all look right up my alley. If anyone in here has a Vita and is going to get it, add me. I will be happy to play with you.

I'll probably buy it digitally day 1 with the money Sony owes me from the spent $50 get $10 promo.
