Wow. Europe is getting Ookami though, so NA is still slightly behind.

I wonder how Malicious plays. Did anyone try that? I also wish they'd put up the Vita version.

Don Flamenco · « **Reply #132 on:** April 01, 2013, 09:51:32 PM »

hey, Soul Calibur, I don't have that yet. And I've come close to snagging Demon's Souls at full price to replace my disc, so I'm glad I waited.

wow, i like the U.S. update better for once!

I keep putting off a Demon's Souls playthrough. Dark Souls was amazing but kind of ruled my life for a month

I played a couple hours of Demon's Souls and like the control response better. It's a bit more responsive than the PC version of Dark Souls at solid 30fps.

Well, both are pretty unique games, i.e. Dark doesn't render Demon obsolete. But you might wanna start with DeSo just to appreciate the evolution of the series. You're for some pretty good, albeit janky at times... times!

Malicious is this wacky jappy game that took forever to cross over. They released an enhanced Vita version but I'm not sure if *that* crossed as well.

I thought something was wrong with my internet. Is this a common thing? Mine loads about 10% and then stops, and doesn't load any further unless I manually shuttle ahead a little, and then everything loads.

Man, they're so going to run out of Vita retail games to give away.

Also, if you do own a Vita there's apparently no point in ever buying ANY software, since it'll all be free on PS+ eventually.

I don't own Machinarium, so that's cool. I own all the others on PC or Vita already. except the orcs one which doesn't seem intriguing at all.

It annoyed me at first too, but it's interesting enough to keep going. I'm almost done with it now and what bothered me more was that you had to replay the puzzles when you went through the other paths. Found three endings on my own, then used a flowchart for the others to minimize repetition.

VLR is a 100x better, imo. That goes for the writing, characters, and structure of the story. It all flows wayyyyy better and you don't have to redo puzzles. It's also just a more interesting setting with better drama.

I wish I had just wikipedia'd 999.

cool breeze · « **Reply #167 on:** June 04, 2013, 01:02:11 PM »

999 is coming out (or is out?) on iOS with all the puzzles removed and a flow tree added. That might be preferable to reading a wiki on it.
