I'm completely stoked for the release of Operation Abyss in a few weeks' time - preordered the Limited Edition from NISA Europe, although i'm still slightly butthurt at the fact that in the US it costs $54.99, whereas in Europe, it's £54.99 (about $85), and that's not including shipping (added on an extra £10 to Ireland).

I too would like more great RPGs and games in general to be localised that cater less to the ecchi audience, but if that's where the money lies, then i suppose we'll just keep seeing more of that shit as time progresses.

I needed a new PS3 controller and got the Vita TV bundle. It's a good microconsole for download games. I hope the Vita TV eventually gets modding capabilities though. I'd like to dump all of my PS1 and PSP games onto it.

You shouldn't have updated it, the vitatv bundle comes out of the box on firmware 3.20, which is completely hackable, which I did and have dumped all of my PSP games and ps1 games on, not to mention all of the emulation as well.

@retrosportsgamer

Nice prices for sure, but from what I understood those prices were for the digital download versions only. I didn't bite because I prefer physical releases on this platform.

On a related note, I'm buying this tomorrow:

Is Freedom Wars any good looking for some games to try out on my PS TV when it comes in on Friday and at $15 it looks worth picking up.

PS TV showed up today and damn I didn't realize how small these are :lol: . Thought I had an empty box for a second it's almost smaller then the power supply.

Picked up freedom wars to try it out with today at game stop for $15 "NEW" as well. Sadly I didn't notice they were missing the manual till I got home, but whatever :P.

Like the other guy said, Vita games don't have paper manuals. The manuals are actually built into the games and are readable on the Vita itself.

There are a handful of games that are not compatible with the PS TV, due to using special features of the Vita. There are still quite a few games that do work with it though. Here's a pretty good list of what's compatible:

Darn that sucks :P. Hate that manuals are getting phased out.

Yeah I knew about the compatibility list before going in. So that's no biggy especially since the PSTV only cost me $40.
