PostedApril 15, 2012
dr pumpkin loves it u dont have to pay for the internet all u have to do is go to att and say u want this many gigs this month and that month so its actually free just limited for certain months and the only bad thing about the ps vita is the battery it only lasts for 3-5 hours but the portable battery really makes up for that and the touch screen marvelous best portable system yet

The lack of games... it's bad
PostedApril 13, 2012
The system itself is great, battery life is short, the front and rear camera take choppy pics for such a handheld. The 3G is not mandatory, if you have a smart phone then you can use the Wi-Fi tethering feature if it's available and you can still use the PSN store as well as message your PSN friends on the go. I have not played any games online while using my 3G connection but have heard that games run smooth while playing online through the 3G connection. The remote play is a lie cause there's only a few games that can be played through remote play and it can't be done from the 3G connection. I would recommend to hold off on purchasing this, there is no good reason for purchasing at this moment. Give it time, save your money cause the games available are either weak or the lack of games would have you leaving your vita catching dust. Trust I've had mines since launch and only have 4 games so far, the system needs games badly and not the gimmicky type. I don't mind MK having touch screen fatalities and whatnot but it's got to be an optional thing. If it were not for the lack of games I would have given it a better rating. Wait a year or so for actual good games to buy this handheld. I think the lack of games is absurd, even console ports of some of the current games would have been acceptable but we barely have any, UMVC3 was a great port how come we could not get a few more? Some PSN titles should have been comoatibke too, not just the PSX classics.Take my advice, it's a great hanheld in itself but with no games it's worthless.

Just because a new game system doesn't have very many games, doesn't mean it's worthless. Wait for good games to come out, THEN buy the system.

Why does Sony Realease New Tech With No Games ?
PostedApril 5, 2012
I was all stoked about this portable. But when i got it . There was no good games out. Every game was something rehashed for quick release. The linking to PS3 was a joke. You cant play your games this way unless the are vita compatible. The picture quality with its camera. Is God Affull . Not good quality. The wifi and even 3g interface is very slow. They wanted there system to be like ipad and nintendo 3ds had a marriage but with dual analogs that are not comfotable to use. And if that was not all. The vita likes to freez up after playing some games. Sony has not learned its lessons from the last time. Nintendo 3ds is the best hand held gaming device. It does not need PS3 graphics to Out sell Playstation Vita 10 - 1 ! H ell even I pod touch would be a better investment than this portable.

....A DS fanboy, some of your points have some merit, but you are going too far in pushing how "terrible" the product is, when in fact, I have not encountered any of the problems you speak of, and find the vita to be a very enjoyable handheld, with a good selection (in my own opinion of course) of games, therefore, I have to chalk this up to you simply being a DS fanboy, thank you.

You have very good points. but I think Sony ps vita is still better, though I do like the 3DS and I think Sony knows that they always have freezing problems and they will try to fix it. But you are also right with them not making enough games, if they did, it would sell more. They did the same thing with the PSP.
