It would seem Sony has redeemed themselves for releasing the sub-par port of the Jak and Daxter trilogy on PS Vita last year. The Sly Collection on Vita seems to be a very competent conversion.

Sly Collection running on Vita:



It was released in Europe today, but we Americans must wait until the end of May <sigh>.

Interesting, it does seem that HD remakes can be a little meh. And while the PS3 Jak HD seems to be better than the Vita HD, it's still got some niggling problems.

My friend gave me his Vita for the day, uh, could anyone recommend me some cool demos to try? Is Rayman Legends on there? I can only see a "BUY" button :(

There should be demo on PS Store for Legends. I did download it in past. Unless they removed it.

I can't see it sadly, it's just the (ridiculously expensive) price. :/ I did however manage to get Rayman Origins

I assume demo availability depends on what region you live in. A demo for the game is available in North America, at least. Other great demos you could try are for Tearaway and Limbo. I haven't played the demo for Tearaway, so I can't specify its content, but I have completed the full game, and would say it's one of the best experiences you can get on the Vita. Limbo is excellent as well, if you like dark, atmospheric puzzle-solving platformers.

I downloaded Oddworld Stranger's Wrath HD on my Vita for free through PS Plus, back when it was in the Instant Game Collection, however my PS Plus subscription has expired and I have no interest in renewing it, and thus I lost access to the game. My question is, can I just go to the PS Store, purchase the game and gain access to it again or must I delete the title and re-download it before I can purchase it?

I sadly don't know the answer for that :/
Anyways I would like to say that I will sell my PSP 1000 with box, 1GB Memory Card, instructions and charger for 30 EUR. PSP is old and has one defect. WiFi does not work. It is hacked as well so games can be loaded from memory card.
Anyone interested PM me.

I have good news. One piece for myself, the other good for all (Vita owners, at least).

The first piece of news is that I got an invitation from Sony to try the PlayStation Now Private Beta. Thus, I will be able to use it when the Vita version of the service launches. If I wasn't strictly prohibited by Sony to post information or media about the Beta, I would love to share my impressions with you all.

The second piece is this:

Child of Light is coming to the PS Vita!

Further details are listed here:

EDIT:

It also appears that LittleBigPlanet PS Vita developer, Tarsier Studios has announced a new PS4 exclusive, entitled Hunger, that has some quite intriguing concept art:

Can you at least tell if PlayStation Now has Crash Bandicoot or not? Or they would not let you tell even that?

Unfortunately, I'm not allowed to share that information with you. However, a list of titles available was recently leaked online and can be found in the link below. It appears that only PS3 titles are available at the moment.

Ok, I understand.
Either way, I hope Sony adds back PSP and PS1 Crash games on PS Vita Store.

Good news for North American PSN users who don't already own PSOne Classics Rayman 1 and Rayman 2, or Rayman Origins, as the aforementioned PS1 titles are now on sale for $1.49 each and Rayman Origins is $13.49. Quite a deal on Rayman 1 and 2.
