    Bunch of remakes as expected..nothing I want right away. Too bad Gravity Rush not in the US list..

    • Sal Romano

      @Kougeru: It is. It’s a launch window title.

        @Sal Romano:

        Yeah, to be fair, it is starting out a bit stronger than the 3DS’ launch window.

          @Acidicsam: “A bit”? >_>

  • FearMonkey

    Will get Uncharted, Lumines and Escape Plan on day one. Gravity Rush whenever it’s released.

  • FaithlessMr

    Looking forward to Tales of Innocence: R, Persona 4 the Golden, Ys Celcetta or whatever the name of the game is and Uncharted.

  • Jackle

    I’ll get a PSVita when a Kingdom Hearts game is announced for that system, just you wait! In all seriousness, I’m only looking forward to Gravity Rush and Persona 4 Golden.

  • rockman29

    Where is Resistance?!

    Oh sighs… no Ridge Racer Vita either… darn… oh wait… launch window… not too bad for that I guess.

      @rockman29: What? You’re getting Ridge Racer Vita? Only 3 maps and 5 cars! Don’t get that ripoff game >=((

      • rockman29

        @EspadaKiller: OK, I didn’t hear about that haha, thanks for the news! Planning on getting Wipeout anyway :)

    While I am excited for the Vita, there are a few things on that European link which I am not too happy about. For a start, I notice that Uncharted is £44.99, while the other titles are around the £34 mark, more in line with normal UK pricing. (full HD games for PS3 etc are usually £39.99). Also, Gravity Rush is PSN only in the EU whilst boxed elsewhere? Ugh. To top if off – no 32GB memory card available for the region? Seems very odd to me.

    Ah well, they don’t call it “Rip off Britain” for nothing.

    32 GB Memory Card for $99.99…

    • rockman29

      @dart2087: It seems like a good price. I think the sales lately have had SD cards of similar size for the same price which is good news all around.

      • LordKaiser

        @rockman29:

        Um no they are cheaper than that. First they change the storage card to “prevent” piracy and now they also lock your account to the storage card too. I’m losing interest in the Vita already. I’ll wait for the the slim version or used slim version.
