Great PS+ update, really looking forward to playing Sleeping Dogs.  Heard BlazBlue and Pinball Arcade were good as well, not sure about Knytt Underground though.

[QUOTE="Badosh"][QUOTE="Mkavanaugh77"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BOHqG1nc_tw how did it feel when you had to spend over 600$ to buy your precious Ps3?Mkavanaugh77
I bought it for 199$ on Black Friday with two games. So...

Doesn't change the fact that SOny was raping their customers

How was Sony raping their customers when the PS3 was one of the cheapest Blu-Ray players at the time?

I've only bought one game so far this year, and that was NFS:MW for Vita.  It's a pretty damn good racing game for a portable, but it's certainly not GOTY material. 

I expect by the end of the year my GOTY will be either TLOU or GTA V.

*edit* Just remembered that NFS:MW came out last year anyways...

[QUOTE="osan0"]anyone having any trouble with the update? its not a major thing but before the update swiping to activate the vita was butter smooth. now there is a bit of a pause while the "paper" is tearing away before it reaches the main screen. Also the icon that pops up when new messages for a game are available (a new trophy for example) is a bit messed up for a split second. i use the loco roco avatar. never a problem on the old firmware. not serious issues but of note. other than that nice update. DarthJohnova

I've noticed this as well.

I've also noticed that I seem to be signed into PSN right away, without loading an app or game, and stay signed in going from app to app.  It used to sign me in each time I opened a different app, for example; going from Group Message to my Friends List.

Out of interest, are we appearing online to PS3 users yet? It annoys me to no end that I send people messages but they think I am offline.

I don't believe that has been fixed yet, and I assume that's an issue that would need to be patched on PS3.

I'm glad we finally have folders, i separate my games as follows:

  • PS+ IGC games
  • Purchased games
  • Demos
  • PSone titles.
  • Other various apps.

 

Conversely, it's a shame this rather amusing meme no longer applies :P

burgeg

I don't see how that was ever relevant. Why would anyone purchase 3DS digital content anyway? Vita has a crapton of awesome digital content, and digital purchases are tied to the account instead of the console so I actually am willing to buy digital Vita games. Not to mention the fact retail games are ridiculously overpriced on 3DS eshop. Vita having folders is a legit cool thing because I have tons of digital content. 3DS having folders is useless because I have hardly any digital content.

But anyway, this update was a lie. They said video support in browser was added. That's a lie. Let me clarify what Sony didn't. It added youtube support in the browser. I've yet to find any other site the Vita can actually play videos of. And what's the point of youtube within the browser anyway? We have an app for that. As you can imagine, I was severely disappointed that no pron streaming sites worked.

So far I've gotten videos to work on IGN and Giant Bomb in the Vita's browser, had trouble with Gametrailers though.

I do think MS will do very well with their next Xbox, but so far it doesn't look like something I'd be interested in (based on the rumors of course).

People are still fighting over which console sold more?  The PS3 and 360 are essentially tied, neither are in the lead.  Also, the 360 and PS3 didn't magically stop competing when the Wii U released, it's dumb to chalk up this generation when it clearly isn't over yet.

Anyways, I think the Cablebox 720 could be kinda cool.  However, I'm more interested in games for my gaming consoles, not TV.  It's still nice to have those extra features though, but I want to hear what games MS has coming to the Nextbox, not what TV shows are coming to it.

Forza is awesome, we know that will be good.  I couldn't care less about those other games though.  The PS4's line-up sounds so much better to me, I'll be getting Killzone: Shadow Fall, inFamous: Second Son, and DriveClub.  Knack is a maybe for me.

Can't wait for E3 to hear more about new PS4 and Nextbox games, should be very exciting.

This is far more difficult than picking my favorite console :P

This probably varies every other day, but for now I'm going to with GBA SP.

Honorable mentions: Gameboy Color, DS Lite, and Vita...now I'm thinking it should be DS Lite...damn this is difficult :P

I guess it would have to be the DS, cause the Gameboy Color and GBA SP were pretty much just Pokemon machines to me.  I played a lot of Pokemon on DS as well, but I also played a whole lot of other games on it.
