kagenish Posted December 26, 2013 Share Posted December 26, 2013 Does anyone have the PS Vita? And if so, what are your thoughts? Which games do you recommend? And lastly, how big a memory card of you recommend? I am likely going to buy one but the memory card fiasco is quite annoying. Not sure why they just didn't have a built in 16 or 32 gigs at least but it is what it is. Is 16 enough? Or 32 more likely? I also recommend to get the one year ps+ membership and you can also get some nice free games and discounts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*Bronze age fan* Posted December 26, 2013 Share Posted December 26, 2013 I was going to wait a year before buying the next gen system, but the wife sort of made the decision for me yesterday. She bought me an XBox One. I knew she'd be more interested in the XBox because of how it works more as a multimedia console. She got me the Ryse game and Assassins Creed. I'm going to exchange the AC game as I didn't really enjoy 3. Ryse is pretty incredible graphically, but not all that fun. However, I downloaded Max and my daughter and I are really enjoying it. One of the better Marketplace games, and it is family friendly. Graphics are pretty decent as well. Hold on there...I hated 3 but love 4. 4 is a vast improvement; it isn't even close. I liked 1 loved 2, brotherhood not so much and revelations made me not want to play another one of those games. I guess I am missing out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kapzilla Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 Assassin's Creed 4 has pirates and sea-battles so that's cool... Haven't been enjoying it as much as I thought I would. Bioshock Infinite was decent and pretty, the first Bioshock was incredible though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buzzetta Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 BTW ... picked up the NES USB Controller but cannot get it to work despite the fact that it says plug in and play on the box. Disappointed... wanted to play some punch out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kapzilla Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 Check out coolrom.com, they have emulators as well I believe and a ton of games. Got a usb controller for the laptop that works for a few systems, haven't used it in a while. Was great for a while to get my nostalgia fix, Earthbound is one of my all time favorites. Bonus points for anyone that's played/heard of Earthbound Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marvelfangirl Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 I've been playing Deadpool lately (it was for sale on PSN) The game is very fun,and the humor is pure Deadpool The gun & camera controls are a bit wonky. It's not a crappy game like some reviews make it out to be. It's not '10' but it's not god awful either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

*Bronze age fan* Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 Bioshock Infinite was in my top 3 of all games I played last year. Really? Maybe I will get interested in it. I am pretty deep into it too...not like I just started it. It's kinda boring to me. I enjoyed the 1st one and the 2nd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radj4ck Posted December 28, 2013 Author Share Posted December 28, 2013 I was pretty happy with my Christmas Haul! Some great games for me to play!
