I won't be surprise if Sony had asked retailers to hold it too to avoid releasing and charging people $250 the same day they announce a price cut.  You will aggravate a lot of your users/retailers for the extra time needed to do price adjustment/refund.

Awesome Frisky, thanks. That's a boatload of stuff. Watched the trailer for assault Android Cactus and was surprised at how surprised I was. Looks outstanding.
 
Is there a way to download Vita games I got on PSN directly to my PC first then transfer it to Vita? My PS3 is running out of HDD and now that I have a 32 GB card I want to download most of the full retail Vita games I got for free and put them on my card but my PS3 can't hold that much data and anytime I try to download more than 1 game at a time on the Vita it freezes up trying to authorize the 2nd download.

Thanks in advance.

Download from the website.

When I go to the PSN Store on PC there is no download option.

Also I got a new 32GB card after starting on a 4 GB card. Did the backup process to PC then restore on the new memory card and all my trophies disappeared. How do I get them to show back up on my Vita?!
 
Start up the trophy app and let it sync for a bit. Unless you never synced your trophies, they should show back up after a bit. Having PS+ Auto Update on will help that process since it may not be able to get everything on the first try.

When you sign into the website, click on your download list on it and it'll let you queue downloads on both Vita and PS3.

 
Can't believe I missed all the info about Starbound, the sequel to Terraria!  Thanks for the heads up Frisky, preordered it from their website and got the entire soundtrack for free (2 discs)!  Terraria is one of my favorite games in a long time, and I'd been wondering about a sequel . . . great news!

Here's the website for Starbound:  http://playstarbound.com/

 
PAX announcements:

And some of their trailers:

They're $179 until today at Fred Meyer's.

I picked one up yesterday. Still need a memory card though.

Can I transfer files across a cable from my :ps3: to the Vita like I do with my PSP Go?

 
I'm too lazy to post all the stuff Sony announced at their pre-TGS conference, but here are some goodies.

More Vita bundles are on the way (I know wasabi is happy, right?):

FF X/X2 Vita

Gundam Breaker

God Eater 2

And then there were a ton of Vita games revealed as well. Just to name a few, there was Samurai Warriors 4, Phantasy Star Nova (which is basically an offline version of PSO2), Soul Sacrifice Delta, Wonderflick (a fantasy JRPG being developed by Level-5) and Dynasty Warriors 8: Xtreme Legends.

Yeah I personally think the FF one is the worst of the three.

I think the God Eater Vita looks the best, but I'm a pretty big Gundam fan so I have an interest in that Vita the most.

When they announced a special vita for GE2 a while back I thought I would get one for sure but man, just not a fan of camo.

The FF one is ugly beyond words... nope

Gundam Breaker tho, I think I will order it since it is gundam/gunpla + slim Astray red frame ftw!

but man, can't get over that FF... that's one ugly vita.

There was another Vita bundle announced with the others I mentioned but it's aimed directly at otome fans, so unless someone wants info on it, I don't see the point in posting it.

More info about the previous Vita bundles has also come to light, like how the FF X/X-2 Vita will have a Tidus design on the front of the Vita near the touchscreen. So it may actually look a lot better in the end. No info on price or release date though, but it's expected to be out sometime this year

Now the Gundam Breaker Vita is going to be out in October and cost nearly $300 US, but that's because it comes bundled with these models:

HGUC Gundam Model

They should've gone with RG :)   not that interested in HG.  while it only make sense to go with the gunpla but sort of wish they had gone with figure like standart

zaku_black_trinity_standart1.jpg

Anyway, decided, my mission this weekend, to finally start/finish RG zaku ii char custom... been sitting on this since release.

edit: and oh, I certainly hope they package the 2HGUC into this bundle efficiently so they can look all pretty.

RG?

I go MG all the way. I have too many models to build sadly, and not enough time. :(

 
if you haven't done any RG, I think RG is a lot of fun for how easy it is but they managed to get a lot of details/articulation into such a simple design.

as for time, ya.  i have like 5 or so PG and probably about 20+ MG still waiting for me but I let me bro borrow my iwata brush/compressor cuz I just don't have the time to do justice to them, thus why I like RG even more.
