That wouldn't surprise me much if they're wanting to tie it in with PS4 use as much as possible.
There are also rumours of a new model too with a bigger screen. Gamescom is just 2 days away so maybe an announcement there.

I don't have any "special Vita" headphones ( if there are any ), I did try with some I have here I normally used for my
MP3 player and .. "the sound really was a bit different" and in my opinion was much better with the speakers .. ODD ..
With other games that have decent soundtracks, such as Hotline Miami, all the reviews say it's best with headphones on, so I just assumed the Vita's speakers aren't that great. :?

I'm hoping for an HDMI version. Also, cheaper memory cards. :)

Yeah, they really need to drop the prices of the memory cards if they want better consumer buy-in.

By at least a third to a half.

Can I ask why? If you wanted to buy a console and plug it into the TV, wouldn't you just buy a PS3?

If they just get rid of that stupid bubbles UI and go back to the XMB I'll be happy (Oh, while they are at it, cheaper memory cards please...).
I know nothing about Konix.

Love the repeated "yessing" in the latest update. Even if the voice changes (I really liked it, FWIW) I love the idea. Just realised - it reminded me of Bit from Tron.

Also loved the bonus mode sounds, but those maybe a tad more controversial. I'd just offer male equivalents (or other alternatives) and let people choose though...

Good stuff. Looking forward to it immensely.

I imagine it will need to be excised somewhat more than that given the nature of the US.

True. Maybe they'll need to localise it to gunshots for the States. ;)

Could they be acceptably replaced by excited sheepie noises?

Please don't put sheepie noises in it.

Or if you must, at least make that an optional DLC pack.


Put some nice deep Willliams-esque analog bass synth in it or something.

I think the lady noises will prove to be a touch too controversial for a family friendly title and would harm sales.

It's looking really good now! I like the idea of the Restart Best feature a lot, too.

The "lady noises" in the Bonus Round video made me do a huge LOL. :spitout:

I liked the mmmms the best, maybe replace the ahh's with baa's and it's a winner?

The transitions are easily my favourite, I could just watch a long video of the various playfields burning up and shattering.
