How is Vita dead? They showed games and announced stuff...and there is more from third parties to show. Nintendo's focus isn't on the 3DS either...is the 3DS dead too?

Nintendo's having a second press conference for the 3DS on Wednesday all for software, plus there are announced games for it.

Going into this the Vita had nothing and leaving it has Ass Creed spin-off. There needed to be some games shown. CoD just had a logo. Incredible hardware, horribly mismanaged.

I'll just copy/paste what I said on IRC:

I just hate how they didn't really give it any attention, regardless whether there are games coming up or not. This is the PS3's 6th E3 and the Vita's first. No PS4 to steal its thunder even. It's really confusing how little they cared. Even more has more priority.

bork · « **Reply #243 on:** June 04, 2012, 10:36:32 PM »

They barely showed anything though. It was a shitty conference. Some third party stuff and Beyond and shitty fighter and lolwtf book thing and GoW and the Last Of Us. The end.

Eel O'Brian · « **Reply #244 on:** June 04, 2012, 10:36:33 PM »

there are vita games, but 45 minutes of waggle wand book reading was deemed more important than showing them, apparently

this is tied with MS for terrible

So far, Microsoft > Sony in terms of pressers.

Microsoft's was terribad embarrassing at times, but it was entertaining and had games to show for it. Plus, at least SOME semblance of a cool new interaction between devices. What's going to be the point of crossplay when the Vita is dead to begin with?

Sony's was just boring.

Smartphones have made these handhelds redundant. If this isn't the last generation of these types of things, especially high end ones like Vita, color me surprised.

Sony is putting this thing out to pasture.

That was a real vote of confidence in Vita.

I mean spin offs aplenty. Nothing on the horzon that is going to make a consumer say 'hey I need to get me one of these'. That all stars game has bomba written along in in large letters. CoD Vita still hans't been shown and the fact it's looking like a spin off should fill people with dread.

This thing is tanking severely and Sony have no clue what to do with it.

Cormacaroni · « **Reply #258 on:** June 04, 2012, 10:45:32 PM »

semi-serios question: Why wasn't PSP/Vita just called 'PlayStation Mobile' from the fucking get-go? It's perfect.

(i know the answer btw and i know that Mobile will be rebranded again before it ever matters, just sayin')

Seriously, I don't even get why that fucking book shit was shown here. No one is going to buy it in North America. I'm fairly certain London Studio stuff like Eyepet, Singstar, and Buzz have only ever been popular in Europe, so why was this not announced at Gamescom and gave the slotted time to something else?

because there was a point where the mobile division of Sony and the Playstation division of Sony wanted nothing to do with each other, there was 0 synergry between sony divisions. this is fixed recently but thats why it wasn't called playstation mobile originally

TakingBackSunday · « **Reply #263 on:** June 04, 2012, 10:52:49 PM »

If there's one thing I know about Sony, its that the company by and large gives no fucks about their respective internal divisions. Sony Music HATES corporate Sony and Sony Comp. Ent. Anecdotally, the VP of Sony Music in Nashville hates the others so much that she's been shopping around at Warner.

PS+ freebies.

Quote from: Goldrusher;38528155

These are all coming for free:

inFamous 2
LittleBigPlanet 2
Saints Row 2
Ratchet & Clank: All 4 One
Just Cause 2
Warhammer 40,000 Space Marine
Virtua Fighter 5
Sideway: New York
Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light

And a couple more.

But when? All at once tomorrow? Or one a month?

I own the bolded, but still not that bad.

Edit: It's probably VF5 vanilla, sucks if true. It's the only one I'm excited about.

Vertigo · « **Reply #265 on:** June 04, 2012, 10:55:23 PM »

The only thing that worries me with TLOU is when they first showed the trailer it had the promise of more traversal exploration (always my favorite parts of UC) over shooting things.

As we've seen it since a bigger focus has been shown of lots of combat situations I was hoping ND were going to be brave and instead of having us be a hard nut who can shoot and choke out people you would be using confronting people as a very last resort also way too many guns I thought. Looks like ND backed away from having exploration being more at the forefront and instead we have to have some action beats or the 'core' gamers will moan.

Or maybe someone showed them the sales figures for Disaster Report and said 'Put some fucking guns in it foo'

Vita's not exactly a mobile device. It isn't sleek enough to fit in your pocket, and the word "Mobile" gives off the idea it's a phone, which it isn't.

I really hope they looked at 'I Am Alive'. They share many similarities but in that game weapons are very sought after but rare things. In this it looked like every other 'bad' guy you came across was carrying a gun for you to pop off.

Because for a handheld that is on life support in multiple territories, you'd think Sony would try to give it as much attention and mindshare as possible so that people would become more aware of what it has and what it will have to come and inject fresh excitement into the console's life.

Instead we get 20 minutes showing off Wonderbook. $:-\$

Two of Japan's top game creators came away from Sony's E3 press conference today with high praise for one game in particular.

Metal Gear mastermind Hideo Kojima and Platinum Games' Atsushi Inaba took to Twitter following the conference to share brief praise for the last game shown at the event, The Last of Us.

Said Kojima: "'The Last of Us' was, of course, amazing. The first time I've wanted to play a game in a while." In a subsequent Tweet, he added "As a creator, The Last of Us demo crossed beyond envy and brought me delight. It brought out the desire to create again. Thank you."

Wrote Inaba: "I have no idea how it's being controlled, but this expression for something interactive is absolutely amazing! Naughty Dog is too amazing!"
