Re: PSP vita
its never too late, only if they came up with something actually playable and enjoyable instead being annoying like the older model.
This time i want to make sure to try it before buying.

Re: PSP vita
Even an insider at Sony has been quoted saying it'll be a flop. LOL.
Way too pricey with way too little TP support.

Re: PSP vita
1. Too expensive
2. Battery life poor (I'm used to 10+ hours with the iPad, 3-4hrs just isn't going to cut it)
3. Price of games
4. Loading times (40-50 seconds per track on Wipeout, apparently)
The 'console in a handheld' concept has never really worked, or at the very least has been hammered by cheaper, genuinely portable devices, history is littered with examples (Lynx, Game Gear, Nomad).

Re: PSP vita
the graphics aren't actually far off PS3, so I wouldn't mind a gander. Don't really fancy paying for one though...I like to have a selection of games on my platforms of choice lol

I work at GAME head office and have one on my desk at the mo.
They are a nice bit of kit but its priced pretty rich. Had some good trade in prices if you have a 3DS. Uncharted 3 is as good as it is on the PS3, WipEout is pretty cool and reality fighters is really cool!

Had a go on Wipeout on a launch machine last week. Pretty impressive.
Huge pricetag though. 100% not worth it.

I read this review...

pretty much bangs the nail on the head.

Mobile gaming is never serious enough to warrant anything more than a phone or an iPod touch like device these days.
It will fail, because its another device to carry and the games wont compete with iOS/Android prices. (even if they are better, which they probably are)The rest of the market has been devoured by the DS.
Personally i don't know why Sony bothered wasting time on this.

You bought a Playbook? Was it free in a free, promotional box of a new cereal?
I ordered it from T-Mobile, didn't cost me a penny. This was when they were still ludicrously expensive. It's a work tool, allegedly.
More than 500 quid for the 64gb version
Just purchased one after trying not to and the review at the top of the page really tries to find the bad points. Got f1 and FIFA wth it f1 graphics are questionable and look like psp graphics but FIFA is miles better then anything on ios and android. You can charge with USB aswell and multitask, when pausing a game you go back to the "dashboard" and go on anything else then up back into the game were you left off.

Definitely.
This money should have been pumped into revising PSN/SEN/Whateverit'scalledthisweek.
I'd buy another PS3 if the online play was better. Some good-looking titles coming this year!

LOL. The Last of Us looks mint though.
I'd never play any non-exclusives though, I can't handle that pad.

I was a die hard playstation fan. I've had every playstation ever released apart from the vita, even upgrading to the slim line versions of the consoles when they were released.
To me, it looks like Sony have been going down hill for a while. The ps3 wasn't upto scratch IMO and the vita Is a product aimed at a market that is already full of better, capable devices for entertainment whilst on a commute etc. it's going to flop and flop in a huge way, I will probably never buy a playstation / Sony device again.
