Persona 5

[Arno]

Who's ready to have your hearts stolen by the Phantom Thief in the epic next chapter in one of Atlus's greatest hits!?!

I'll upload a link to the trailers later tonight.

[Edge]

I wannnnnnt iiiiit!

I'm currently jumping between P3 and P4G.

[Syrma]

I need the game so bad...that and also Bloodbourne and various other games

[Edge]

Bloodbourne

 

I know the feeling.

[Syrma]

It comes out this moth on the 24th...I can't wait though

[Edge]

I know! Gah, I need to buy a PS4 already. I wannnnt iiiit!

[Arno]

I'm currently playing PQ and P2:Innocent Sin. probably gonna drop everything for P5

[Syrma]

You got me back into Playing P3P and P4G

[Arno]

XD

well, keep playing, everything is leading up to P5, lots of hints everywhere, and I hope our new Lupin has a cameo detective rival.

[Edge]

Dammit! My vita died. TwT I picked up a pstv so I can still play P4G, but now I have to do it without beautiful portability.

[Arno]

Pstv? what's that?

[Edge]

Playstation TV a box you can hook up to your tv and play Vita games on. It's half assed, and doesnt work so well, but you can install psone classics, psp and Vita games, use some physical carts and such. Though not all games are compatible.

[Arno]

Where does one get one and how much?

[Edge]

Your local game shop, or Amazon. You can find them pretty cheap on Ebay. I was lucky enough to get one on sale for about 80USD. It came with one Dualshock 3 controller, one 8GB Vita Memory card, one hdmi cable, and a Lego Movie the Game download code, which I never used.

PS4 controllers are compatible and make most games that require touch controls playable. The DS3 can enable touch screen on some games by clicking in L3 or R3.

 

The only downsides are.

No Netflix/Youtube support, but you can use those through the internet browser, so I've heard. I haven't tried yet.

Touch heavy games aren't supported.

 

The pros.

It's a Vita you can play on your tv and it upscales to 1080p.

It's small and portable,so you can take it on trips where an hdmi tv is supported.

It supports Playstation now. So you can play PS3 games on it, and anthing else they add to that service.

[Arno]

That actually sounds awesome. I must go on a journey to find one now! >:3

[Edge]

Good luck! It shouldn't be hard to find. Considering they haven't been selling well.

[Arno]

What about at a gamestop or a second hand game store? Cause $80 is way better than paying $300 for a used vita.

[Edge]

Yeah, you could find one at a Gamestop.

[Arno]

Awesome :3

[Edge]

It is, but I wish there were more games that were compatible. Thankfully P4G, Danganronpa, and the few other games I want to play are compatible.

[Arno]

Only reason to get it(for me anyway) is Golden. :)

Others are maybe. :P

[Edge]

Golden looks fantastic. Aside from some off pixles and obvious other problems of upscaling. It still looks better than the ps2 version.

[Arno]

Big question... will I need to buy a physical copy of golden and will that work, or download it to a vita memory stick?

[Edge]

Physical cart, and downloaded copies both work.

[Arno]

Just wondering, gamestop employees told me it wouldn't act as anything more than a transmitter for the ps3 and ps4 to the tv. But he didn't seem very enthused about anything and oggled the wii products.

Just trying to get everything straight so I don't have to buy a vita(overly priced handheld).
