Vita details are "quite literally declassified", says a confused Treyarch.
PP: Was Call of Duty: Black Ops Declassified really that bad on the PS Vita?
In comparison to its console counterparts at the time? Yes. Yes it was. In comparison to DS versions? It was god like
I got tons of fun out of it.
Killzone was better, yeah. Heck even Resistance online was better. But CoD Resistance and Modern Combat and such were all fun to change it up a bit when you've grinded too many hours into Killzone.
If i had to review them, yeah, all those games would get a low af score except Killzone. But i had fun plowing through the Resistance campaign and playing online and goofing off with CoD online while travelling. Not everything has to be a masterpiece but they were all fun enough for what they were lol
How is a system so loved within its community considered a commercial failure, and how did the Nintendo Switch take its idea and run with it?
Highly overpriced proprietary memory, and Sony showing it little support, themselves?
Pretty much Sony ditched it to focus on PS4. Can’t say I blame them, but it is disappointing. If Nintendo can manage to put out games for handhelds and main consoles-I would assume Sony could too.
I personally skipped the vita because memory was just so damn expensive - then eventually, Sony gave up on supporting it.
it got nowhere near the love that the PSP got, which is an absolute shame cause it paired pretty well with the PS4.
The only thing Sony cared about was protecting its image against piracy. They were willing to destroy it for the sake of saving face to its investors after the PSP. Same approach they took with not allowing external storage on the ps5.
VGChartz's Adam Cartwright: "Many would argue – and I wouldn’t really disagree – that the PlayStation Vita never really had a killer app. There wasn’t that one piece of software that helped change the console’s fortunes. The closest we got was arguably Persona 4 Golden, an early release that received huge critical acclaim, but it was part of a niche series and as such its sales impact from a hardware perspective was muted.
There were missed opportunities along the way, as certain titles had the potential to change the Vita’s fortunes, but the way the final product was delivered (if indeed it was delivered at all) left a lot to be desired and so they didn’t reach their full potential. It’s these games I’m aiming to look at this in this article – 10 games that were missed opportunities on Vita. I’m not saying that every release I’ll be talking out here had the potential to be a “killer app”, but if they had been executed a little better they would have undoubtedly been a key factor in helping the console reach a wider audience."
My soul still aches over the idea of making 3D Dot Game Heroes a Vita series never happening after the dev studio expressed interest in doing so. Could've been a flagship for it, or at least carried it a bit further.
The vita contributed to the ps3 having less support from Japanese devs. I hope sony keep focusing on one console at time like they are now in the future
Something tells me this game is going to disappoint. It looks the same as PSP from where I am standing right now. Devs just don't seem to take Sony handhelds seriously. So far I can note outside LBP I want UMVC3 and NGS plus. The latter two I have already.
Devs dont take Sony handhelds seriously? Really? Uncharted, Unit 13, MvC, Res burn skies (dont care what anyone says this game is good and mp is great), Soul Sacrifice, Assassins Creed and Gravity Rush all seem to differ on your stance of not taking Sony handhelds seriously.
Just say COD and its publishers are a bunch of greedy morons who really dont bring nothing new to the table. Even with that we dont know yet how COD on Vita will turn out it still might surprise.
Uncharted, Resistance:BS (horrid lil game) and Gravity Rush are first party titles so they don't really count as proof that (other) devs don't take VITA seriously.
What you have left is MvC (a port), Soul Sacrifice (an uproven game) and Assassin's Creed (the only worthy point)
Real support right there lol ... Vita needs more than just spin-offs and ports, games like Gravity Rush and Soul Sacrifice that can only be played on that system Alone...
All I can say is they announced this game last year at E3, when they announced the Vita. A year later at E3 and they still have no gameplay footage to show, which obviously means that development hasn't started yet or is in the very early stages. Not good, the game is suppose to release this holiday and nobody even knows who is developing it. Come on Sony, a system seller franchise and they are screwing it up.
