Alphabetical isn't a bad way to go since he wouldn't be able to sort the 2017 titles by date.

I think he probably did alphabetical to keep both lists consistent.

Just the fact that he does a list is appreciated though. :p

 
I know I bought these on PS4, but just wanna share this with my fams here:

And also I will be streaming this on my channel these days, as I absolutely LOVE these two games. Here is for the first hour of AoT so far:

Titles without dates fall under TBA and titles launching the same day are sorted by name.  If it's got a month, it sorts to the top of the month since it would be better not to miss it than putting it at the end of the month.  It's really not that complex to sort other ways.  Alphabetical isn't that practical for tracking releases is all.  It is better than nothing though and it's cool Tweeg put the list together.  Also some titles need more info since LRG exclusives disappear the same day they launch and some stuff like Muv-Luv won't be available at launch since they were sold through kickstarter (etc).  I threw this together.  It's useful to me.  If anyone else likes it, cool. If there's something I missed about one of these games (exclusive to certain sites, etc) please chime in.  I know Bloodstained was Kickstarter but it's supposed to be retail too so I didn't clarify that one.

Enjoy...

^Wish that was an in-depth review of the Vita AoT, really want to know if it is playable since I heard a lot about the draw distance issues.

 
With the latest Vita update (both on PSTV and Vita 200) I'm getting A LOT of interruption when playing my PS1 games. It's particularly poor on the PS1 game "Wild ARMs". Just the opening cinematic is interrupted 6 times, and this WAS not a problem before the update. (the previous update did cause tiny disruptions in FF7 each and every time a battle loaded, but this wasn't as much of a disruption to the game)

I'm interested if anyone else is having this problem with PS1 games on their VITA/PSTV since the update.

I fired up my vita (slim) with a 64gb card (filled with about 1gb of free space)... launched Wild Arms... watched the opening cinamatic... no issues at all. I'm on the latest firmware and haven't done any of the past hacks as this Vita is tied to my PSN account and I wouldn't risk it. I have all other apps turned off with none even sitting to the right of the main menu system waiting to be launched. I'm also connected to wifi. I shut the game off, disabled wifi, and ran the game again through the opening sequence without issue.

Side note... that opening cinematic is pretty awesome in Wild Arms.

I don't know about the vita version as I can only picture myself playing this on PS4... and I'm having a great time with AoT. But as you might see in my videos, some Titans will get stuck in the wall and you won't be able to kill them. And the mechanism is not very well explained, I was having some difficulties to attack the spots on titans. i aimed like the tutorial showed but somehow failed... overall, this is a great game and I'm super glad this is not just another Musou game requiring minimal skill.

How are people doing in Shiren on Vita?  Anyone even playing it?

I am currently trying to get through the Tower of Miracles, got to the eighth floor on the first try but the monsters are hitting super hard again in the 40s.  I'm not realy sure how to progress from here on out.  Whether to just continue grinding my one sword and shield or start leveing some new ones or what.   There is very limited info available on the weapons and upgrading takes forever.   I'm using a Lunar Blade +22 (cresent sword 35 power) and an Epic wolfshead +22 (Wolfhead Ultimate form shield 44 defense).  I'm not even sure how you acquire more runes and special powers on your equipment!

I want to try out some new weapons and shields but leveling them up takes forever.  You can't just guess the proper ones to level up.  There's even very little info on the Gamefaq boards for this game.  Anyone have any tips?

 
So I'm debating buying Lego SW:TFA for vita from the BB sale. Anyone played the vita version? Is it a solid port? If it's absolute trash I may pass on it..

 
Just received an email from Amazon about my Shantae: Risky Beats Edition for the Vita. It has been delayed to 10/18/16. I'm honestly glad as September was too packed. XD

 
The GameFAQs Shiren board is pretty active, actually (for a niche game, that is). We share info and tips as much as possible.

For the record, every piece of equipment has a max level of 99 and unlimited rune slots once it reaches its final form.

It's a great LEGO game. The handheld versions aren't ports per say. They're very similar to the console version, but often levels are different to compensate for the less powerful hardware. Starting with LEGO Batman 3, the handheld versions were built from the ground up on Vita and ported to the 3DS.

Yeah, I have to spend some more time reading on there. But there are only seven total pages on the board.

Really sorry to hear what happened to you the other day. I feel so badly for you. Wish there was something I could do to help. Hope you are feeling better.

 
Lego Jurassic World is on sale for $15 on Amazon right now. It's a very good Lego game. Free shipping with Prime.

It's also $14.99 ($11.99 GCU) at Best Buy.

Good to know. I'll pick it up and give it a go then. Thanks!
 
Thanks; I'm feeling a little better about it now. Shit happens in life; just gotta roll with it sometimes. In the end it's just a video game system, and I have every iintention of replacing it anyway (that memory card is another story).

I hadn't really paid attention to the title before, but Lego Jurassic World is one of the games I got at a pawn shop recently (along with God of War) for $5 each.

...
I don't have a PS4 and wanted to buy the AoT vita ver, but its $50 for a digital download and the vita ver has issues w the titan pop up distance so hell to the no. I hope w all the issues this past week w the vita it will mean prices on official games start to drop to entice people to buy.

 
I'll get the digital AoT for Vita when it's super cheap on sale.  Even being imperfect, I still want to play it.  I'm just not willing to pay through the nose for the experience.

 
Saw the list of releases..... saw my order list... saw my wallet walk out on me...

Anyways, AoT is on the vita? was there a physical release or import only?

 
Epic fail Best Buy! Shantae is now up for pre-order on BestBuy.com, but there is a catch, shipping only! They're chraging $3.99 for shipping, no option to use store pick-up! It was going to be $29.66 after applying the Gamer's Club discount and adding taxes to pre-order it! I'm better off just pre-ordering it from a local GameSlop, as it will only cost me $2.13 more and I can verify it hasn't been damaged in shipping before accepting it. Sad sad sad.

 
Meh, GS tends to still shipped damaged product to their stores, lol.

I can't even count the number of times I've looked inside those drawers, and there's just a bunch of crushed and dented LE boxes inside.

Moved my Shantae from AMZ to BBY (my first and last year of Elite status so might as well ride it out). BBY hasn't reflected the delay though.

Best Buy is weird where they will sometimes add an item for shipping only first, or store pickup first, but they usually eventually add the item for both shipping and store pickup, it just may take some time. There are sometimes exceptions to this though.

Simple solution: order the PS4 version as well, or another game to get free shipping.
 
Not a physical copy but it seems that trails of cold Steel is 20 on psn. What to do, what to do. I already have a pretty large backlog and I don't play often enough..

Bought Lost Song at Gamestop. Wouldve preferred used but only 1 somewhat near my area and its probably not complete.
Just remembered GameStop has the "Hold for Pick-Up" option on games that show as being in-stock. Now have a copy on hold at one of the local store, hopefully they really have it, it's a "new" copy, but still can't complain as still a decent price.
