Llamasoft does TxK for Sony Vita

[axel000]

New to the Vita myself, is there a way for us to give the game a star rating which shows up in the catalog so other possible buyers can see its good ?

3rd in Classic at the moment, I think that'll do for the night.

Congrats on launch, Jeff & Giles. It's a superb little thing.

I'm RRRobF if anyone wants to add me.

woo i am #8 in pure mode. for half an hour or so probably
it's so good. feels even better than the last beta i tried, unless i'm imagining things.
so happy to see all the reviews, and that everyone's loving the soundtrack.. awesome work y'all <3

my psn name is 'BlackAntoid' if anyone else wants to be friends.

edit: i like how i've seen a couple people comment that the $10 price is awesome (as in, not expensive)

Watching this review, I can barely understand his weird, sing-song-y American accent.

I really like this one as it's nice to see a young lad like that getting so into the game and enjoying it .

Jeff, Giles - TxK is wonderful. Thank you!

Right. Brought my Vita into work.

Is it out yet?

[jonnyram]

I really want to play this. I've loved Llamasoft's games ever since the ST days.
Any sign of this coming out on PSN in Japan? I know I've asked this in a bunch of places, so I'm sorry if I am annoying or overly persistent. I just really, really want to play this game on my Vita asap.

Great review here 9.5/10

Lovely bit of history to start with including some hilariously awful Atari ads

AND specific and pretty lengthy call out for the soundtrack at the end



Never seen a review do that before

Welcome to the forums!

I have a feeling it isn't going to as there are a lot of hoops to go through to get it released there.

Your option may be to create another account to buy it. I got a US account once (I'm in the UK) to get stuff that wasn't released here. I seem to remember it was quite easy.

Definitely worth the watch. Those Atari ads are incredible!

First must have game of 2014

I think OlliOlli turned up shortly after 1 when it launched a couple of weeks ago, so I'll try to get a good morning's work done and then start checking...

We are not sure yet if we are going to do Japan too, point is to make Japan too it would have took at least 2 other more months ( if enough, probably 3 ), Japan process is really slow to pass through all the phases plus there are lot of hoops and things.

I have the feeling/impression that if we'd ever make Japan it will be at all effects like to make a completely new/different game.

Thanks for the reply (Thanks to misfit too!).

That's what I imagined, sadly. Are you allowed to talk about the Japan process at all or is it all under NDA? I ask because the spokespeople usually make it sound like it's up to developers whether or not a game comes out here, but on a high level it sounds like a pain and more effort than it's worth. I don't know many details, but I have heard that it is pretty expensive to get games rated by CERO, which would be a necessity for a proper PSN release. I'm curious what else Sony themselves requires, as it's supposed to be the same company worldwide nowadays.

By the way, I'm in Japan, and can speak a bit of the lingo, so if there's anything I can ever help you with, please feel free to drop me a line.
