For me, most of the games that appeal are already on pc...

Tempted to pick this up. Just seems like such an oddball collector's edition.

Sorcery Saga: Curse of the Great Curry God Limited Edition- $18.27 with prime shipping.

I bought the same thing a few months ago online too. I paid about $25 for it

Its an okay game. Basic cutesy RPG.

The bonuses are pure fluff. I dont think the plate's decals will last that long without rubbing off with continuous washing. But then I dont know if your going to use these things with a baby.

Pure collectors items here, with no real purpose.

Just the game by itself at gamestop is $19.99 used, so you're still technically saving some money by buying online.

If you've got the money to splurge, then go for it.

Wow lol, I was just about to post about this game

I don't know first hand what the collector's edition is like, but from what I've read the stuff is pretty cheaply made so I would only get it if you really want to display it somewhere or if it's cheaper than the game by itself for some reason.

The game itself is pretty fun imo, but I'm not sure if it's something that most people would enjoy... I know some people don't like certain rougelike things, like how you lose most (if not all) of your items when you die, and sometimes you can just run into a lot of bad luck. Not sure how this one compares to others, but I think this one is pretty forgiving. I really like wandering the dungeons and collecting everything ha. Oh and the music is AWESOME, especially the town music.

The only two things I don't like about it (that I can think of) is how sometimes it gets really laggy when there are a lot of enemies in the area and how Kuu (the funny mascot creature) will learn skills as you level him up but: 1) He can only have 4 at a time, 2) The ones he learn are random, 3) If he learns a 5th one, you MUST get rid of one of his current skills, and 4) If he has a skill that REALLY sucks, he's stuck with it until he gets another skill and you replace the bad skill with the new skill.

One time I had him stuck with a skill that makes him eats all the items he passes over and I ran into an enemy that hits your weapons out of your hands. Since I didn't realize you could pick up things in the square your standing on (with O I believe), I stepped away and Kuu ate my shield and later my sword ;_; I still managed to clear the dungeon, but it was still really awful.

Sorry that was a bit longer than I expected it to be, but I hope it helps.

What truly kills me are the memory card prices. Still expensive as hell. When the Vita released I remember the outcry for those prices. I said to myself that Sony shot themselves in the foot with a shotgun right from the starting gates.

Does that white-list circumvention allow for Netflix yet? ...

I read that the hack would allow Netflix playback. Unfortunately unable to test myself.

... Someone I know told me that the Vita TV can play Netflix via the browser. Can anyone confirm this?

Confirmed as "does not work".

Thanks

And you would've though by now they'd of lowered them significantly since prices to make stuff like memory cards should fall over time but nope...glad I've only needed my 32gb one though...

... As for the PSTV hack, couldn't you buy a brand new PSTV and have it not be updated with whatever is the latest update that disables the hack? I can't confirm that but it might be worth a shot.

I've been wondering the same thing. Given how much functionality it adds, and how cheap the console tends to go for, might not be a bad idea if it would work. I'm just worried there might be some kind of mandatory update the first time you go online (ie: before you could do the email stuff).

That would be a problem though didn't realized they'd dropped this far in price gamestop sells them new for $40 and used $30...

A question for those of you who have played Sorcery Saga: Curse of the Great Curry God.

What's the combat like? And would you say it's good?

From what I saw of screenshots, it looks like a grid based strategy RPG, but you seem to only control one character. I'm curious how it works.

[Fragems]

Arcana Heart 3: LOVE MAX!!!!! and Conception II: Children of the Seven Stars are both around $16 with prime shipping if anyone was waiting for a price drop.

Looks like the Sorcery Saga went back up to $40+ .
