    Thanks talpaul, I did see that one but when you add postage I think the one on eBay was a little cheaper and its new too.

    Its a strange game and I wouldn't bother picking it up tbh unless you can get it cheap somewhere.

    I have a couple of questions about the Vita and would greatly appreciate any help. Is it possible to have two PSN accounts on the Vita as it is on the PS3? I have a US account and an EU Account on My PS3, I can buy games from the respective PSN stores and then play them with either account, could I do the same on a Vita?

    Also If I bought a used Vita which has an EU account on it currently will I be able to delete that account and set up a US one?

    Cheers!

    Yes, you can completely reformat it.

    As for the accounts, they are different to the PS3, if you want a EU account and a US account you will need to have two different memory cards.

    Great thanks a mil that is really helpful. Does that mean I can just swap out the memory cards to move between US and EU accounts?

    Yes, fantastic little game, although it does include quite a bit of grinding.

    Don't mind that really. Looks kind of a like a cross between Monster Hunter and Phantasy Star Online. Think I'll grab it this evening.

    One last albeit broader question, are there any common hardware or software issues I should look out for when buying a used Vita? Problems with the screen or rear touch pad for instance?

    It's a very sold bit of hardware and you do not hear many issues with them.

    If you buy a used screen, for god's sake, MAKE SURE before you try PS4 Link (using the Vita as a screen/controller for PS4 games) that it is not still linked to the previous owner's console. Even if the Vita goes through a startup sequence asking for things like locale, date and time and all that, it for some reason still keeps settings for the previous console.

    Thanks for the heads up, how do you remove those settings?

    PSA: Firmware 3.5 adds custom button assignments to the Vita.

    Unfortunately, there is nothing about changing the touch pad/touch screen settings though.

    You should be able to put it back to factory settings. Had to do it once when I forgot the screen password.

    Picked up a Vita TV at the weekend. Bit annoyed that Wipeout, Uncharted and Helldivers aren't supported!

    Any recommendations for games? Bonus points if it's been on Plus in the last couple of years.

    It's an official price-cut, think it's €60 in Argos, includes a €5 voucher.

    anyone here able to shed some light on this. me and my girlfriends son both have minecraft on the vita and tried playing multiplayer this weekend but couldnt. we were in a hotel with wifi and both connected to psn. the wifi seemed to be perfect but kept giving the error 'the host has exited the game' and 'connection lost' even though we didn't leave.

    and it happened every time. i could see him in the 'join game' box and when i picked it, chose 'join' it would either error straight away or sometimes the progress bar would come up and then it would give the error. progress bar never went up though.

    tested the wifi connection too and both were fine but i'm wondering if there is some setting i'm not seeing cos i don't normally play online. and both vita firmware are latest as of yesterday.

    didn't get to try any other games but might try terraria this weekend

    More than likely it was port forwarding problems with the hotel router. If the hotel's wifi is blocking those ports that are required for multiplayer then you'll have no luck. Just try it in your own place and it should be fine.

    Vita minecraft also has an adhoc mode for local play. Not the same but at least it is something to play

    Have to say the Playstation TV is an excellent bit of kit. Playing Killzone Mercenary on a large TV with a Dualshock 4 controller is fantastic!! Given that it is a PS Plus game for April, everyone should try it!!

    What is your preference? Do you want a case to make it easier to hold? Or one to add protection?

    Other than trophies is there any issues with swapping a memory card between the Vita and TV and continuing to play from where you've saved; same account.

    You can get netflix on it by logging in with a US account and downloading it.

    Finished Counter Spy, enjoyable, if untaxing game.

    Finished Rogue Legacy in the last while as well. It's pretty good, but does get a bit grindy later on. You get the sense after a while that you don't have to improve your skills, you just keep grinding it out, and you'll get there.

    Onto Velocity 2x now, looks good. Thought it was a shoot-em-up, but seems like there's not a whole lot of shooting in it. Innovative game design though.

    VGP or Play-Asia, not much in the price difference, but it will be quicker with VGP.

    Theyre the same price on amazon.co.uk tho, so I wouldnt bother ordering from either.

    Ah no you won't with VGP and I have been ordering from them for years ( always shipped as cheap DVDs or a novelty toy) and they are close to 18 Euro cheaper than ordering from Amazon for a 32 gig card including delivery.

    I got a ps tv during the week. Very impressed with the game. I am a massive fan of the vita and being able to play my games on the tv is great. I have played Killzone, little kings story, persona 4 golden and ragnarok Odyssey(first one) over the last few days and the visual quality to me are unreal. Dont know if I could highly recommend it as not all gaes work and the lack of video apps is disappointing but I knew these things before I bought it but Im loving it

    You may have to reformat them, not a difficult job if you do, otherwise they are the same.
