PlayStation Store Preview – July 17th, 2012

This week’s update is all about Dyad. Let’s face it. There’s plenty of other content, but there’s nothing quite like Dyad. It’s a little slow this week, but PSN Play is so close to kicking off and providing a steady stream of new releases including… Sound Shapes – a favorite of ours. Make sure you check out our PS Vita section to see all of the reasons to pick one up right now (sarcastic sigh). No, but really, do check out our Coming Soon section which has been updated with the entire PSN Play line-up and so much more. - PSLS

Dyad, all the way. But damn, that's a lot of new games in that Coming Soon section.

JonnyBigBoss4294d ago

Dyad looks very good and most of all it has a unique style.

insertcoin4294d ago

Dyad + Psychedelics = Good time

doctorstrange4294d ago

Dyad, Datura, Journey... Sony's really going after the druggies

Vita? ... ? ... ?

If anything is killing the Vita it's the lack of ... you know... games. Sound shapes is coming soon, but most of the real big games won't be here for months.

ftwrthtx4294d ago

I totally agree. While the Vita had a nice crop of games to begin with, it's time for some more.

eferreira4294d ago

It's the summer, slow season for games. Instead of complaining, go outside and have some fresh air.

bloodybutcher4293d ago

what if i want to go outside with psvita?

Xof4293d ago

Herpaderpderp. You do realize that every other console is getting more software support than the Vita this summer, right? That includes the "obsolete" PSP and DS.

And that it's not just "summer." From June to October, Vita averages about 1 game per month.

That whole, "Nogames" thing was terribly inaccurate with the PS3, but with the Vita, it's very apt.

Couple that with weekly updates of zero Vita content and Sony's insistence that they would maintain software support for the console post-launch so as not to repeat their mistakes with the PSP and PS3... and it does not paint a pretty picture.

If you own a Vita and can still somehow delude yourself into thinking that this vast swath of time with no new software is somehow excusable, understandable, or god help me a good thing... you utterly fail as a consumer.

There's no getting around it: it sucks.

Sev4294d ago

The wait for it has been painful.

alexcosborn4294d ago

Dyad looks INSANE! Can't wait to check this one out.

WeskerChildReborned4294d ago

Aww man no free Deus Ex :( but the list looks nice.

Mass Effect 3's Ending for Javik Misses the Forest for the Trees

Based on one narratively fitting ending in Mass Effect 3, Prothean squadmate Javik is highly unlikely to return in the next Mass Effect game.

He was one of my least favorite characters. I wish they would have done the Proths different.

Dragon's Dogma Is Still Amazing

Although the sequel is on the near horizon, the original Dragon's Dogma Dark Arisen remains a fantastic action RPG, still worth playing.

A lot of the quest lines in Skyrim are good(not all and they don’t add up as a whole if you do thieves guild mage fighters guild etc) The dragons are very lame after the first few times and the combat is clunky as it always has been. The stupid sprint button is ridiculous.

Overall I agree DD is the better rpg game.

Both have theirs strengths and weaknesses but Skyrim should be so much more being the 5th game in Elder Scrolls series.

Excited to see what they add on to DD 2.

Unfortunately all they have done to Elder Scrolls since Morrowind is take things out (minus the sprint button which is so lame because you can kill dragon god like creatures but can’t run for more than ten seconds without getting tired)

anast44d ago (Edited 44d ago )

I liked the vampire questline and the return to Morrowind was okay, but the problem with Skyrim was the lack of consequence. There is almost no point in the quests. After I realized this, I started messing around with the mods and then quit playing. Though, I did spend 300 hrs. on modded content, but this is telling of how bad the game kind of is.

If DD was the size or close to the size of Skyrim, It would have been the primer fantasy game back then. I hope they up the size with DD2.

5 Games To Play While Waiting For Dragon's Dogma II

Daman Shelley from NoobFeed writes - Dragon's Dogma is truly a one-of-a-kind game, and there really is no other game like it, but there are a few that come close. Whether with their fantasy settings, the ability to climb mountains, or just with the overall same charm as Capcom’s iconic RPG. Here's a list of games that will hopefully scratch that Dragon's Dogma itch.

every gamer should play this game

gold_drake94d ago

cant wait for it, feb and march are busy busy months ha.

SovereignSnaKe94d ago

I can still hear the title screen music in my head after nearly 12 years. Loved every minute of it.

MrNinosan93d ago

I have no issues filling my time til DD2.
Granblue Fantasy: Relink, Infinite Wealth and Final Fantasy VII Rebirth will probably me more than enough.
More terrified I won't be done in time.

DivineHand12593d ago

Try not to burn yourself out before the game releases. This is going to be a long and immersive RPG like the first one.

The games in this article are all great and I believe the people who are excited for Dragons Dogma 2 probably already played most of those games.

For now, I recommend you prepare yourself for long play sessions if you will be picking up Dragons Dogma at launch.
