    What's the story with Street Fighter V Tekken (PS Plus). Is it designed to be an online game? I ask because I fired up Arcade mode 2 nights ago and within 20 mins I had finished it. I only have a 4GB memory card so I'm wondering whether I should keep it on the Vita or swap it out for Jak & Daxter instead.

    That's how fighting games work!! But yeah, it's mainly designed as a game to be played online. With brief forays into single player to pick up some minor story lines and to learn the basics etc.

    Keep it or swap it out for J&D? I've read that J&D is a poor port with framerate issues, freezing etc. Never played J&D.

    The first game is quite poor in terms of framerate and such, but still playable. The second and third though are fine IMO.

    Apologies if this has been asked before but does anyone know how to prevent the PSV browser from refreshing every ten seconds? It's unusable.

    I've never noticed that before. Have you updated it?

    Wish I was! Bought my Vita back in Aug at a reasonable price but you would be a Father Dougal to turn down this offer. You won't regret it.

    Ok well i have been trying to do the system update so i can link my psn account but i keep getting error C3-3841-6

    problem solved transferring some of my ps plus games over to the vita.


  • Registered Users Posts: 68 ✭✭Irish Warri0r


    Been wanting a vita for a while but kept putting it off but picked up the 180 offer in Argos today and have to say I'm impressed killzone is great and have been a PS+ member for a few months now so also have a load of games to play also,happy days!


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,354 ✭✭✭nocoverart


    Picked up the Argos deal myself today, way too good an offer to turn down. I have a bit of an annoyance with my Vita already though. When games are loading on a black screen I see all these blobs all across the screen and also like a vertical line of black marks on the right hand side as well. Doing a little research online this seems to be quite the norm with oled Vita screens (mura I think its called) but It's a little worrying all the same. Have many of you Vita owners experienced this? any point in me sending it back?

    Same thing with mine. Apart from seeing it when the screen is completely black during load times I never see it so it doesn't bother me.

    Sounds like you might have a slightly dodgy one. I'd try to change it for another in Argos, no harm in trying.

    I noticed this too. I thought it was just the COD loading screen at first but after seeing it in other games/apps I realised it wasn't.

    Anyway, it only ever happens at times when the whole screen is black, and I'v never noticed it at any other times.

    I wouldn't worry about it to be honest, I'd take it back if it annoys you while playing games though.

    Them black blobs on the screen are because of the OLED...fairly sure it's the same on every Vita


  • Registered Users Posts: 68 ✭✭Irish Warri0r


    Probably a stupid question but if I play my vita while signed in does it notify all my friends on ps3 that I'm online and what game I'm playing?

    Sort of, anyone signed in on the Vita appears on the very bottom of my friends list - doesn't indicate what game you are playing.

    Gonna be grabbing the Vita deal tomorrow in Argos.

    Am I right in thinking Amazon is the handiest place to get the 32GB card?

    Yes, but they have gone up a few quid


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,101 ✭✭✭MitchKoobski


    Well it was looking like the best place, but it seems they've run out of stock over the weekend. ****e.

    picked one up also - good deal. Yet again though, disappointed with Netflix support in Europe, so both the Vita and 3DS don't support Netflix in Europe, whereas the USA works fine.

    I see remote play is supported for God of War Collection and SOTC/ICO on the Vita , which is nice.
