Double post, Unit 13 review from Eurogamer, 8/10

http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2012-03-06-unit-13-review

Been playing it all night it is very good.

I loving this Vita, its my new favourite console. For once a launch console actually goes above my expectations.

Nothing to do with Sony, you're first point of call is with the retailer. That's who you have a contract with.

Been out for 2 weeks, am I entitled to a replacement then?

It's the usual repair, replace or refund scenario.
You work for HMV(I believe), surely you know how it works.
You deal with the retailer, nothing to do with Sony.

p.s. did tekken vs street vigeter came out? how is it on vita?

Not for another few months

Otacon · 07-03-2012 12:56pm

I always seem to have the most questions but anyway...

Has anyone gotten Remote Start to work on their Vitas over the Internet? I can use mine over my home network but not when I am away from my house.

I think I have my PS3 set up correct [a static IP within the network, a static global IP given to me by my ISP, UPnP on my router, obviously the setting ticked on my PS3] but it will not connect for me.

Can netflix be used over remote play?

I tried Vidzone last night but it didn't work. It wasn't blocked from use because of it being accessed using remote play, it just couldn't connect at the time.

I assume Netflix would be similar.

cloud493 · 07-03-2012 2:36pm

Thats annoying :mad: The Americans can use netflix through the vita can't they?

Online retailer Play.com has inadvertently announced four upcoming games for the PlayStation Vita. Monster Hunter 3, Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Nights, Final Fantasy Type-O and Tales of Innocence were all listed as available for pre-order by the website. -ign.com

http://kotaku.com/5891238/new-grand-theft-auto-final-fantasy-games-could-be-headed-to-vita?utm_campaign=socialflow_kotaku_facebook&utm_source=kotaku_facebook&utm_medium=socialflow

A tipster sent gaming website Eurogamer the above screenshot, which contains retail listings for Vita games Monster Hunter Portable 3, Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Nights, Tales of Innocence R, and Final Fantasy Type-0 HD.
Monster Hunter Portable 3 may be related to the PSP game Monster Hunter Portable 3rd, which publisher Capcom never released outside of Japan.
Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Nights could be a portable spinoff or remake of publisher Rockstar's popular open-world game Grand Theft Auto: Vice City. Its title is somewhat reminiscent of Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories, which Rockstar released for Sony's Vita predecessor, the PlayStation Portable, in 2005. A prequel to Vice City, Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories, hit the PSP in 2006.
Publisher Namco Bandai has already released the roleplaying game Tales of Innocence R in Japan, though it has not yet announced localization for the U.S. or Europe.
Perhaps the most interesting news here is an HD version of action-RPG Final Fantasy Type-0, which publisher Square Enix released for PlayStation Portable in Japan last year. Although the chances that we'll see that PSP game in the U.S. or Europe seem fairly slim, an HD remake for PlayStation Vita is far more likely to make its way over here. kokatu.com

Highlighted the one that is peaking my interest.

The others seem to just be ports of PSP games [though VCN could be VCS remade too I suppose]

Is there a way to create a US account and download all the goodies the yanks get?

Or even changing DNS setting via unblock US?

You can certainly create a US PSN/SEN account and download items from there without changing DNS settings.

HOWEVER,

you cannot have concurrent PSN/SEN account on your Vita. Basically, if you want to use a US account, that is all you can use on your Vita.

Grumpypants · 07-03-2012 5:23pm

You can have a US and an EU account as long as you have two memory cards. This will also work if you have 2 or more people using the one console. You do need to format the console everytime you swap though and sit through the start up video.

Lord Spence · 07-03-2012 5:39pm

Help!!! Did a system restore and now have lOst all my vita trophies even after a sync 😞

you dont actually need 2 memory cards for it to work, you can do it on one, but you'll only be able to play the games owned by the active profile. you dont format anything either, just restore the vita to factory settings. finally, you can skip the video by powering the device off and back on as soon as it starts

if you tape the psn tab in trophies youll see them there anyway - you just wont have any on the system itself
