Allisa James from DualShockers talks about the PS Vita TV and why it's actually a pretty good idea.
It seems it was long time ago. A bunch of friends spending hours on end playing RPG games, sitting around the table with the box of cold pizza. Excited about the story, listening to the Game Master, they were completely engaged in the worlds only visible to them and their imaginations.
The GM is the programmer, and in MMOs and co-ops, you can play with others. If you want to ONLY use your imagination for the visuals, read a book.
Scrawl: "Looks like we know how that new Compile Heart countdown is going to end. The latest issue of Famitsu has confirmed that Agarest Senki 2, known as Record of Agarest War 2 in the US, is Compile Heart’s newest title."
1) Hope they put it on disc this time.
2) Hope this is a positive for Neptune coming over as well.
If so, that's being developed & published by Idea Factory. Compile Heart has nothing to do with it (Thank God for that).
Thought Compile Heart was one of the companies lending characters.
Was also speaking in general as in regards to a US of Neptune. If these guys are offing a second game, NIS or Atlus, both of whom offer quirkier titles, will put that one out.
@kagon01:
My issue isn't - wholly - with the DL-only option, but the price. The first game should be $30. Maybe $40, and by that I mean $39.99. The only reason its $45 is the 360 disc version which has extras. Nevermind that by all rights its a PS2 game. Something that proabbly could have been done if the devs had the GOW2 engine or tools.
I approve of this god damn message.
Could have gotten my 60 bucks if they just put it on a disc.

Is this a half decent SRPG, porn aside, cause if it is, i might just decide to go and buy it for the 360.
There's no porn just some sexual innuendos but that's it.
Also it is a great game by itself, maybe not graphically but everything else is top tier.
Yup, it's a decent game. I just hate that a move has to go first before any attack options.
This is not the first time that Bless Online receives a server merge in Korea. An announcement was made on the official Korean site.
Bless must be an amazing game to be on all these platforms (according to the tags): iPad iPhone Nintendo DS PC PS Vita PS2 PS3 PS4 PSP Wii Wii U Xbox Xbox 360 Xbox One
I may very well import this thing just to have a "PS4" in the bedroom without buying a second one.
I don't think Sony should compete with the Apple TV. Apple's too popular for that.
The name, being PSVita TV is really a good name for it, because it is a PSVita, it is using PSVita hardware.
iT IS DESIGNED TO HOOK UPTO THE TV.
It is not unlike Google TV
http://www.google.com/tv/
or this box
http://store.apple.com/us/i...
the key thing is the PSVita TV box has this Icon

the Name is fine.

"I don't think Sony should compete with the Apple TV. Apple's too popular for that."
its not that they want to, its that they have no other choice! i think many are not seeing that Sony has no other choice but to compete, because samsung , apple, LG, Panasonic Google. ETC.
They are all already heading to this market, already Smartphone chips made by Arm Holding's are already going into TV's, topset boxes, what Main OS are these TV's and Smartphones and Tablets and Topset boxes are using?
Android and iOS, Hell Sony is one of the founder's on the open handset alliance for a reason. they were already experienced such a disruption by smart devices when they made palm powered devices like the Cliq'. they know what's heading this way. why do you think the PSVita like the PSVita TV uses Arm Holding's chipset's, or that Sony purchsed Sony ericsson for 1.5 billion!
or also made the Playstation Suite or as it's now playstation Mobile!
Sony knows that there is no way around it, instead of taking it head on, playstation Mobile is platform agnostic so even
other topset boxes, smartphones, tablets or smart TV's made by other companies can be income stream for sony also to sell playstation software on.
Its an Eco system, where the PSVita or the PSVita TV is not just the only system that Sony has to rely on to gather income from. Hell with the fact that skype is also on the PSVita, it's also able to generate income
streams for Microsoft for each PSVita, or PSVita TV user.
they should jus release this thing in states same time or even before japan. i know its a vita for ur tv but the fact that u can stream your ps4 from a different room is brilliant. i will never have to move my console anymore
IMO it kills apple tv just because of all the extra hardware sony has on shelves to interact with this bad boy. i think sony is back in full swing now i realli hope they keep it up and stay throwing us all these goodies.
I think it's a fantastic addition to the Playstation stable of products, and I'll definitely be picking it up when/if it releases in Canada, but Sony is going to have to market this device properly.
If PS4 emerges as the clear leader in the coming console gen, Sony needs to hammer home how the microconsole extends the feature set for both PS4 and PSVita. Tell PS4 and PSVita owners why buying this device would be a great idea. Advertisement will be key. People aren't going to buy it if they don't know it exists, what it does, and how it benefits them.
