Llamasoft does TxK for Sony Vita

[Misfit]

Wanted to donate outside of the donate link because of paypal fees, so just sent a few quid as a gift directly to yak@ll... as it recognised that as Jeff's account.

Thanks guys.

So how much for one then as its a cert I'll get one now ? Any model preferred ? Video out ? They have leaderboards ?

As I posted a few posts up, this seems a good deal. Not sure you need the 3G but Wipeout for a fiver is worth it:

New 3G + wifi one (which means free copy of wipeout when you spend £5 on a top up) with a 4GB memory card for £179:

I dumped 3g on my iPad as I could tether to my iPhone - Does the same apply here ?

Fantastic news, can't wait to play this

To Deckard : Yup, you can tether the Vita to an iPhone over Wi-Fi, works fine. You'd miss out on the Wipeout 2048 for £5 offer then though

Presumably. As I assume you connect your iPad via wifi to the iPhone so it would be the same.

The point is for £185 (including the top up to get Wipeout) you can't get a non 3G Vita with game and memory card.

Ah I see tbh I never ever liked Wipeout but for a fiver I am prepared to give it a try

A quick look of the main players suggests the best price for a pack with a wifi Vita is £199 and that will get you a 4GB memory card and Assassins Creed at Shopto or Call of Duty at Amazon.

So it's probably the best price pack around at the moment 3G or non 3G without going second hand.

I like the name, very cleverly done

Got access to a Vita through work, so excited to be playing this

...so how long till it's out?

...and the bacon strip bonus level will be back i hope? So chilled

Awesome. I haven't got a Vita yet, but am getting more and more tempted (Spelunky, Tearaway, now this...)


And now I think of it - it's my birthday next week...

" Legendary "

I like that.

A precisation also should be clear that TxK NOT that other-trademark-name-that-is-not-ours is a
kind of spiritual successor of certain games made by Jeff in the course of various years is NOT an
"upgrade" or "upgraded version of" name-of-other-thing-we-don't-own-rights-of

TxK is TxK "the other things" are "other things".

So it's tempest, then. 2/10

No, it's NOT, it's legally not It's TxK all another thing ..

People seem to love working with Sony these days.

The Vita's a very capable little machine, too. I'm excited.

Glad you like what we said about Jeff's work! I've been a fan of his since the Vic 20 days (hope that doesn't make him feel too old!). Just a shame I never had the chance to talk to him when I took that photo back in 2001 (at Back In Time in Birmingham) that I used to go with our news coverage on our site.
