The previous game from Drinkbox.. is Mutant Blobs.. or Tales from Space.. or are they the same game?

I keep reading that I should also play their previous game (and it was on PS+ at one point right?)
[SIZE=111%]Tales from Space: About a Blob[/SIZE] (ps3)

Tales from Space: Mutant Blobs Attack (vita) was free for +

A lot of good stuff on sale. I already own Guacamelee! and Mutant Blobs though. I'll be picking up Muramasa. I'm not a 1st person shooter lover but I'm considering Blood Dragon. Over the top and short (4.5 hours) seems like the perfect combo for me. Does anyone know if Nun Attack is worth it? I played a little on Android but didn't like it due to the lack of controls. Anyone have it on Vita?

I though it was pretty good on the vita and worth it for $3. If I remember correctly the game play was touch screen only

thanks! gah

thinking of getting all 4 of the Vita games... but that means something would have to be dropped..

KZ:M, Tearaway, SH: BoM? these crazy sales

 
Why did I get a killzone:merc email with beta code if its open to all vita plus members? Seems weird to me. Even says to wait and download it tomorrow.

Also, almost got gucamelee yesterday because my vita has been lonely. Very excited for that and dynasty warriors next.
Yeah, what about those beta codes people were supplied with during E3? My only guess is that not enough people completed it and the code or something and therefore just made it public instead.

 
I guess I should inquire about games more often. Every game I had asked about a few weeks ago in this forum has been on sale this month. I'm glad I waited to buy. I'll be getting mutants from space, Guacamelee, and spelunky (for next week). Then Sony needs to cool it with all these sales because I'm going broke!

Guacamelee and Blood Dragon for me.  Been waiting for Blood Dragon to drop.  I can see Guacamelee becoming free at some point but it will probably be a while.

 
Guacamelee for me! It's getting so much love that I've been regretting not buying launch week with the plus discount.
Ditto. I missed the launch sale and couldn't pony up the extra few dollars knowing it was JUST on sale (at the time). This is an excellent price, definitely buying :D Will also be picking up New Little King's Story and probably call it a week.

Anyone else downloading the Killzone: Mercenary beta?

 
Am I crazy for considering a Silent Hill for the vita purchase? I like the demo and it has multiplayer? Is the whole game the same, kind of mind numbingly redundant feeling? I could see that turning me off.
I bought it last time it was on sale and after about the 3rd or 4th level of the SOS, I stopped playing it. On the other hand it required such little thought that I was able to play it while walking on a tread mill, so there's that.

 
I'll be getting KZ:M beta as well. Looks fun. I liked CoD on my vita, as well as the other shooters. The only problem with shooters on the vita is the analog sticks seem a lot more sensitive, but that's because they're smaller in general.

 
To the person who asked -- I thought Mutant Blobs was a ton of fun.

So with the two free games this week, what's in store for next week? Did they announce another Plus game this month I just don't remember?

Really excited for the KZ beta. I've heard nothing but great feedback on it. 

If you got one of those E3 beta codes from Home you can use it when the beta goes live for Plus users. 

 
Man, DoA 5 for Vita for $10? I gotta stop buying DoA games retail. I had DoA Dimensions for the 3DS, and that dropped like a rock too.

Yeah for DOA5+ it didn't help that they announced Dead or Alive 5 Ultimate featuring the DOA5+ content plus additional content 3 months later....

Even if the new game is for the PS3/360 it still affected the VITA version.

Edit: It was released in early March. So it was 5 months before the sale and 6 months before 5 Ultimate

It's a pretty good deal if one hasn't picked it up already.

So, The Walking Dead Vita will be $20 plus 400 Days DLC? 10-15 would be a good deal...
Does anyone know or did I miss news on if The Walking Dead on Vita will be retroactively Cross Buy, a la Limbo? I originally played the 1st season on my Mac, then bought it on PS3 when it was on sale, but would prefer to replay it on Vita. I'm just hoping I don't have to buy it a third time to accomplish this...

Oh, and Guacamelee is awesome for anyone who hasn't played it yet. I can't recommend it enough, especially at tomorrow's sale price!

Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon $14.99 $10.49 $7.34

Clash of Heroes is great, especially for couch co-op.

 
Yes, cross-buy if I recall correctly. How much is the DLC currently? I may just grab that regardless of sale, though I think it's like $1.99 or something.
-Costume Pack $1.99

-El Diablo's Domain $2.99

unfortunately there will be no cross-buy on the walking dead, you will have to buy it again if you want to play it on the vita. I'm waiting until the game gets a price drop before I get it yet again, I already bought/played on Steam and PS3.

 
Damn, didn't realize I missed out on GR and UC Vita free for PS+ a while ago. Drug my feet and never went to purchase them because they were on there for so long. My fault for not using my Vita enough or for checking this thread as often as I should. Hope they come back eventually, want to give both a shot at some point.

If GR and UC mean Gravity Rush and Uncharted for Vita, then they're both still free.

So I did miss this info- thanks for posting!

Bummer, though! I will either end up replaying it on PS3 or, like you, waiting for a price drop on Vita. I don't feel too much pressure about it either way, though, since I've already played through Season 1 once and news on Season 2 is still scarce, even after 400 Days has been out for a month...

Hm, Soul Sacrifice or Ragnarok Odyssey?
SS.

Yeah, what about those beta codes people were supplied with during E3? My only guess is that not enough people completed it and the code or something and therefore just made it public instead.
I got an email on Saturday or Sunday with a code that said to put it into the store tomorrow to join the beta so I'm thinking that it's only public as in anyone who has acquired a code from them or Home can participate. Not that anyone on PSN can.

Think I may just skip katamari and put the $4 toward Guacamelee.
Yeah, the Guacamelee sale made that decision a lot easier. That and Tale from Space are kind of like side scrolling Katamari and I enjoyed what I've played of those far more than the Katamari demo.

They're still on the IGC, so you didn't miss them. They will probably be on there until November when Vita's IGC hits its one-year anniversary.

 
Why would Guacamelee be cross-buy if they list the PS3 and Vita versions separately? Either way, i'm pretty much in for that and Spelunky on my Vita, been waiting for them for a while.  

I played through Zone 1 of SH: Book of Memories demo and the combat was a huge turn off; it seems like there's a lot of content and while I have no idea how the blood/light system works, there's something interesting there.  But the combat....bleh.  Passing.

Guacamelee is Cross Buy. They just list it that way since you can either buy the PS3 version to get the Vita version for free or vice versa, but it doesn't matter which way you buy it.

So that way if you only have one system at the time you can buy the version you can actually download and play? And so that people with only one system don't see PS3/Vita and think they can't play it?

I picked up Ducktales Remastered last night for full price. I gotta admit that while I like the game, it is horribly repetitive. Jump, cane bounce, jump again, cane bounce, etc, etc.

Hopefully there's other levels you can unlock besides the five listed after the initial level in the money bin.

 
If anyone needs PSN credit for these sales Best Buy still has PSN cards at a discount for gamer reward zone members. It doesnt show on the site, but when you add it to your cart you can see the discount. I just picked up a $10 card for $9.50.

There aren't.


I'm definitely buying Guacamelee and the DLC if it goes on sale too. I'll have to look up the other Canadian games that I have heard of and decide.

Really great sales! I'm glad I started following this thread closely. Thanks FriskyTanuki and everybody who contributes.
