Just played the PS VITA

I went down to the NYC Vita event and tried out a unit, I can't say I was to impressed the handheld was huge made my Galaxy S2 feel small, the menus all require touch screen even in game well at least for uncharted and they were that responsive felt like cheap android phone when it came to responsiveness, Gamers with big hands also watch out the buttons are very small but there was some pros the screen and graphics were fantastic still not PS3 quality yet just like the PSP was a little behind the PS2 same goes with Vita. If you got any questions ask away.

It felt sturdy, more then the PSP but still not DS Phat sturdy or even 3DS for that matter.

Look at all those ugly jaggies. :o

How do the analog sticks feel? Also, would the sticks be a hindrancefor carrying in the pocket?

Another fantastic blog.:P

Gravity Rush is another offender.

Really? Less sturdy than 3DS, the 3DS is probably the least sturdy handheld device I've ever owned.

Well that's good, I haven't dropped my 3ds yet but I know it's coming.

How long did you play the system, if for a while did you notice the system getting hot at all?

Good to know, I wasn't too excited about the whole touch interface being the only interface, but that's what patches are for right? I actually recently had an extensive play with the 3DS and I was impressed that I could play the greatest game of all time in 3D. Since the 3DS impressed the hell out of me graphically, I'm excited to see what the Vita can do when its in my hands!

I have heard the whole oval design is really nice to hold, is it a genuinely comfortable thing to play on?

Gravity Rush looks amazing though, and isn't linear like Golden Abyss. And I thought Naughty Dog were technical wizards. :cry: :P

Do you have any comments about the game itself? Or did you not get the chance to try it long enough?

I don't think that this project is under ND's control. I'll double check.

[QUOTE="MFDOOM1983"]"Alas, much of the good work put into the overall look of the game is impacted slightly by the use of a 'sub-qHD' native resolution. The whole game appears to be rendering with a native framebuffer somewhere in the region of 720x408 (which is 75 per cent of the Vita's maximum 960x544 resolution),"Digital Foundry

Development was overseen by ND though. Anyway, it was just a joke. :P

quite lame you can't use dpad/buttons for menu navigation. PSP107

So far that's been my only problem with the Vita, the forced use of touch controls when buttons can be used. It could at least be an option! I know it is (at least mostly) in Uncharted. At least when your in the heat of the battle though the controls don't fail.

The back touch panel? What is your opinion on that?ShadowDeathX

Side note IRL Playstation fans are insane I heard people in line talking about power supplies and lens for PS3 and knew each model number just a fun fact.

Do you think indie games on the vita would do justice?shadowchronicle

How loud are the speakers, like could you hear the game easily in a crowded enviroment??

Game looks like crap from that image. At least we know its supposed to be fun but with jaggies like that... my eyes bleed.
