Ahhh Jet Moto, I played those too. Wonder if those were still up. Stinks they don't have Parappa up, but they probably want to sell the PSP version Thanks for all the recommendations goons.

Wonder if theres any lag on the Vita cause of the OLED ... are you sure? Those games have always had the trickiest timings to them, and it has nothing to do with lag or perfect inputs. In fact, the more off beat your inputs, the better you'll do.

univbee posted:Me too, although I think there was a problem because the original release hosed up and forgot to translate some of the extra content and Sony has a strict policy about that sort of thing with digital releases. Suikoden 2's slap-dash localization only exists on the North American release. The European release fixed most, if not all of these problems with the caveat that it's supposedly even harder to get than the NA release. It'd be nice if Sony actually used the PSOne Imports program for something other than letting Human/Hamster dump their lovely Japanese SRPGs and dating sims onto the Western PSNs.

I'm not 100% sure, just playing the PSP version of Parappa on PSP I was doing fine, COOL-ing every song, then I went to PS3 Unjammer and couldn't pass a song . Maybe the timing was just much more strict

I'm out of town, so I'm wondering if it's possible to add DmC to my download queue and then it would download during it's nightly sync. I didn't leave my PS3 on when I left, so the only way it would download is if it did it when it automatically turns on at 3am tonight.

If you have a huge queue of games to download/install I've noticed it sometimes won't complete all of them in one night, but your queue has to be pretty big.

Counterpoint - UmJammer is so good that even a bit of lag won't take away from the need to play it.

If you check your download list on the webstore, there should be a "download to PS3" button which will push the game through to your PS3's download queue. Then it should download when it turns on for the nightly auto updates. It may even install it automatically for you, but I don't know of it does that straight after downloading or if it does it in the next auto-update cycle.

In my experience, a "2am-4am" power-on will turn it off at 4am, meaning it may take a few days to download and install.

zenintrude posted:As someone who was an adolescent during the PSX era and has recently been trying to play FFIX again, I'd have to disagree with this recommendation. The random battles in FFIX are possibly the worst of the PSX generation and there are annoying difficulty spikes (i.e. the battle with Beatrix if you don't know to grab Quina early) while FFVII is pretty much a walk in the park. I'm in this boat too. FF9 is the only FF game in the entire franchise I couldn't finish (and that was when it was new and still in its prime), because every 4 steps was a random encounter that took like 25 seconds to load. I'm a patient man too. I mean christ, I even managed to finish FFII. The random encounter rate combined with how long every battle took to load was just the worst thing ever. I remember every battle started with a panoramic view of spinning cameras and everyone involved in the fight. That got old so fast. Maybe fast-loading option on ps3/vita(?) helps with that?

I just played through Lammy over the weekend with two players. It's definitely different than not playing on an HDTV, but you can still finish it.

With practice, you could adjust your timing so you press the button a tiny bit before you're meant to. Unfortunately, I'm still terrible at Parappa and Space Channel 5 because of how unforgiving their timing is. I have to watch videos of them to listen to all the catchy music.

# ? Jan 8, 2014 23:44 |

It's even worse on the PAL version, since the entire game runs at 5/6th speed on top of the awful loading screens. It doesn't help that the maximum battle speed is so slow compared to Final Fantasy VII, so the entire game feels like moving through treacle. I want to like it, since I'm almost at the end of disc one, but holy poo poo. I wish I had something like enc-none just so I don't have to put up with this unbearably slow battle system and load screens.

The last time I played FF9 I transferred my save between a homebrewed PSP and the PS3 and the loading didn't bother me much. I'm not sure how much faster it was on the PSP compared to the PS3.

I never had any problems with FF9s load times, even when I replayed it a few months back. Plus, even with the load times it's still the best one of the PSX-era. FF7 has not aged well and FF8 was horrifically flawed.

Some news found: A bunch of places think that this site is where you sign up to get in a beta for PlayStation Now. I think it's just a sign-up form for emails for update news, but you never know if they'll slip in PSN codes for it or not. For PS Now gameplay on a tablet or smart device, you'll still need a DualShock 3 to play. A DualShock 3 is also required for PS Now on supported Sony Bravia televisions. From the same interview, there are no plans to make a streaming version of a game free if you own a disc or download version of the same game. It also sounds like they won't put up streaming PS4 games until they get PS3, PS2, and PSone streaming working. WWE Network, which is actually a streaming network with video-on-demand, will be available as an app for PS3 and PS4 on or after February 24. The subscription is $9.99/month. All 12 WWE pay-per-views are included in the subscription, along with a bunch of specialty shows and tons of video on demand. For now you'll have to be in a 6-month commitment, probably to prevent people from subscribing a month, then cancelling afterward. Slender: The Arrival will be released for PS3 on PSN this winter. The press release also mentions online co-op for Double Dragon Neon, but this is only for the upcoming PC version, not the PS3 version. There will be a PS4 version of Pro Evolution Soccer 2015, says the game's official Twitter account. As posted in the NA store update, the new Aliens game Alien: Isolation, a first-person survival horror game, will come out on PS4 late this year.

I'll probably be picking up FFX/X-2 purely for nostalgia's sake (and because I never actually played X-2), but my real hope is that it leads to a remaster of XII. That was a genuinely fun game and one of the few previous gen games that I played multiple times on my PS3.

We're pretty much guaranteed to get FFXII International HD. The game is selling like crazy in Japan, the director behind the project has said he wants to play it on Vita, and the entire FFX/X-2 HD staff said they would love to do it. It's more or less just waiting until E3/TGS later this year to hear about it.
