    Magical Melody also has a Wii Version, which is why I had to modify my 'There are no good Harvest Moons on the Wii' statement

    RE: The Vita

    as far as PSP and PSOne games go, some of those games are massiely improved by having a second stick that you can map to substitute for different buttons

    peace walker, for example

    two sticks is a goddamn gamechanger

    yeah discounting the stuff the Vita does within the Sony ecosystem versus the 3DS in the Nintendo ecosystem is silly when you're comparing system to system

    I can remote play almost every game I want on my PS3 on my Vita over my home network

    That thing the WiiU does that they released a new console to make happen I can do with this $250 handheld right now

    It has access to PS+, crossbuy, it plays a gigantic catalogue of games that you don't have a way to play now

    32GB card is just a convenience factor. My 8GB has been working fine because if you have a PS3 you can save all your vita downloaded games to your harddrive and load them on and off at your leisure and it takes like no time to get them loaded up for being on the go

    The only time I can think of that I'd want a bigger card is for really extended trips or something

    Let's also point out that yes most of these games can be played on other consoles but these are shockingly adept ports

    The Vita version of All-Stars is a pitch perfect version of the console and PC versions, forcing the 3DS version to eat its dust

    I got a 32GB card because I want to carry everything. Then PS+ gave me a space problem.

    I like my Vita. I like the screen, it fits nicely in my hands, and there are games I'm interested in on it. Are they available on other systems? Sure, but I like having portable versions of them. Are there things I would change about it? Definitely, there are some super dumb things about it. But I'm more than happy with my purchase and I don't know why people have to be dicks about it and act like it's some kind of terrible system.

    A lot of the PSP's games would have been improved with a second analog stick.

    So, Blood Dragon is FC3 DLC? But, the game wasn't out this week, how did that get it on the discs?

    It's a stand-alone downloadable game.

    It's not really DLC, it's a stand-alone game, so you can play it without owning FC3.

    it's got the FC3 label because it uses the same engine and game system

    it's just new art assets and a completely unrelated story

    soooooooooooooooooooooo.... I listen to the Bombcast, and it's getting me interested in GiantBomb. How would I get more of their things? I guess most of their meat is video related things, is that available on iOS too? I don't want to watch video from a desktop, I guess is what I'm saying.

    they've had an iphone app for a while, so i'd assume you can watch everything on ios.

    The 'official' GB iPhone app doesn't really work anymore

    however there's the Giant Bomb Video Buddy which works pretty well!

    also I find their mobile site very functional since the redesign

    not sure if that's still a subscriber only thing

    Nah their "mobile" site is open to all. It's actually just the automatic scalability they've designed into their main page. If you shrink your browser window into phone screen proportions you'll get the look of their mobile site as well - it's pretty dang slick.

    Mortal Kombat 9 comes out, PSN goes down due to hack.

    Injustice comes out, PSN Store is on "extended maintenance".

    Is this the curse of Shao Khan or something?

    My laptop with good speakers and every Giant Bombcast is getting repaired, so I can't listen to today's Bombcast or next week's when they launch

    Help me cheer up, thread
