I say PS Vita sound stupid, but the truth is, that it's gone be an awesome tech device. I can't wait to see that piece of glory shining in the palm of my hand. I'll eventually used to that awful name...

Im sold on 90%. I just hope it will have a better browser, and more online play support, otherwise its a waste of money for me...

The original PSP had low refresh rate which resulted ghosting effect when playing videos, can anyone clarify this on the new Vita?

Am I the only one who continues to upset thyself watching videos of this baby without any ideas on how to actually earn enough for one? /rant

Wow...that was some screen glare! Im starting to fear that gaming is starting to mirror society...everything is this gimmicky, reality TV, superficial social connecting. Just give me some good ol BF3, Dark Souls, and witcher to keep me happy.

@ Tyreeceholmes Yes, Americans as a whole are impatient. I should know: I am an American.

@ MrFreehuggs Actually, I never read Wikipedia for any of the information I've been expounding here. My information came from articles written by experts in the field of telecommunications and wireless technology. Read the quote Tyreeceholmes posted from the ITU. It's a subtle indictment of the fact that wireless providers are not near providing what is still considered 4G. The ITU stated that their old definition still holds, but that improvements over 3G now count as 4G. That's counter-intuitive. If there's still a clear bar to be met for 4G, how can improvements in 3G be 4G if it's still performing within the range of 3G standards? It's why they pressured the ITU to change the definition; they know they can't get there yet. And it really has all to do with Americans becoming impatient. We want to do more and do it faster. In the race to provide that, wireless providers realized they couldn't meet that demand fast enough. So rather than just deal with some hot tempers, they changed the rules. In the end, it doesn't matter, though. The ITU is a UN body, and what they say and define doesn't hold any true legal weight. A company could come out now and say that they offer 5G if they wanted. Hell, the providers have varying definitions of what 4G can do and what it should be.

@ Jonnny-Two-Delta You're English? Haven't you noticed this happens all the time in Europe? Europe (and Austrailia too, I think) get screwed on price all the time on video games. It's just not Sony with the Vita; there has been a huge discrepancy in price between the States and Europe for several years now.

Wipe the sweat of next time lol. The presenter should always look sharp and crisp! Or get more exercise so you have more stamina for big shows!

PSVITA looks like an awesome logo, and I will get used to the name. ;)

@luiz4321 You can download PSP Games onto it and format controls for them and chose to get smoother graphics on it! AWWESOOOOME!!!

Dammit, probably missed Van Bronckhorst's goal when it went up to his face again :(

@Noskillkill Microsoft has no desire to entire the portable hardware market. They own Rare, which makes games for the Nintendo hand helds.

Noskillkill 5 pts

Im i diehard nintendo fan and a more than satisfied 3DS owner, but i gotta admit, im gonna be pretty jealous of people walking around w/ Vitas. Kudos Sony. and Microsoft....pfft LOL Microsoft......

AceCometh 8 pts

@Majkic666 My thoughts exactly. I don't have a need for a portable. If not at home where my consoles are, I'm not in a position to take time to use a portable.

The cross-platform features sound cool.

"In fact if we can get it back". Ricardo and Gamespot aren't going to steal it. This guy is a douche.

kazumashadow 6 pts

I have to admit, i was kind of wishing in the back in my head that he dropped the Vita and got all pissed.

coolhardrocker 5 pts

Does anyone else's browser say that ther is 351 comments, but 357 are new? But this looks like it is a very quality focused device. If i continue to see more and more good things about this, it may have me sold.

chidori455 5 pts

If it has a good library of games and its netflix enabled, I'm sold

poopinpat 18 pts

$249...I'm sold...and pleasantly suprised!

luiz4321 5 pts

Can I download my PSP games on it?

shureshot24 14 pts

Sold I will buy one as soon as it comes out...

Why sometimes at middle screen happen some cubic glitch ?

Ypsteven 5 pts

Why make me wait!! Its Sony E3 this year Nintendo Wii U is cute but this if im going to spend £300 it will be expanding my experience this way. Yeah 3g defo has the grunt for online play if you get in a good signal area and if Vita is HSDPA compliant.

JBjazzbo 5 pts

Is it just me or does this guy seem a bit annoyed about the questions he's asking? lol. "Right?"

riariases 5 pts

What? 3G is definitelly enough for online play. I tether my 3G Android phone to my laptop and share internet access to my 3DS, Wii and Xbox 360 (didn't try PS3 but obviously it would be fine) and they've all worked pretty seamlessly.
