    Anyone else bitterly disappointed by the lack of official price drop for Europe? I was hoping E3 would bring it... Still, I guess it just allows my collection through PS+ to grow ever larger.

    Why would they lower the price when they know that demand for Vita will skyrocket when PS4 is released. I know I'll be getting both.

    There MAYBE a bundle, you never know.

    Most places have already unofficially price dropped it anyway.I wouldn't be surprised to see a bundle.

    Japan and I think the US already got an official price drop but Sony want to shaft the EU for some reason. They need to do something with the price of the Vita memory cards at the very least. £82 for a 32gb card.:eek:

    I'm more let down at the lack of new titles announced aside from tearaway there isn't a lot of exciting games when compared to the 3DS.

    I'm really trying to enjoy Virtue's Last Reward. The game is good but I cannot hack the pages and pages of obvious, predictable, mundane text.

    Might just download Rayman.

    85 games coming on Vita this year was a nice E3 announcement no? Dragons Crown, Destiny of Spirits, Killzone, Tearaway and Walking Dead are all enough to get excited about.

    I love the music,typical rpg style music :D.

    They also said it was the ultimate companion to the ps4 but showed nothing of that. I was hoping to see it in action as 'the ultimate companion'

    Yeah, I'm wary of the remote play feature being put on the long-finger by Sony. They said it was built in at the architectural foundation level (or something like that) of the PS4 so here's hoping it works out of the box.

    Well then...where's our Dragon's Crown EU release date?

    The Walking Dead bundle coming in August and the ever growing collection of games with PS+ is making the Vita a must buy for me. Like the idea of them integrating it with the PS4.

    Damn you Sony and your stupidly good marketing.

    Just got a new Vita yesterday. I've got Soul Sacrifice, Ridge Racer, Uncharted, Dungeon Hunters, Wipeout, Sonic and Sega All Stars racing, Gravity Rush, and Fifa & 1 year PS Plus (I'm an Xbox gamer considering making the switch).

    It's a pretty expensive affair. 8GB memory card is full already. Screen quality isn't great after using an iPhone 5 for so long, pixels are very noticeable. Battery life isn't great either I find so far, but need to give it a few more days..

    Edit: Today after a proper charge the battery seems good.

    Vita uses an OLED screen and it's beautiful IMO.

    The vita is beautiful. Games like uncharted and stuff do show it off well :pac:

    Wow, that is good. I thought Amazon was good with just a Vita WiFi for €210 including free delivery.

    Shop round on adverts a bit, get one for peanuts.

    Turtle Beach Vita ear buds down from €46.99 to €12.99 in Argos, in stock or can be ordered everywhere. http://checkargos.com/StockCheckPage.php?productId=9104990

    Note, I have no idea if these are good value but at a near 75% price drop they maybe worth a shot.

    So Unit 13 and Ninja Gaiden Sigma Plus for the Vita on PS Plus this July. Between Unit 13 and Rayman, that's 2 months in a row where games I've bought have been on PS Plus. It'd put you off buying games…

    €30 to €35 depending on the shop.

    So the Vita version of The Jak & Daxter Trilogy is out (on 21st for UK & Ireland) and is cross buy, if you get the PS3 version you get the Vita version.

    It's retroactive so if you got it before the Vita version came out you still get it but it's only for those who bought off PSN
    , there might be a code in the retail Vita version I don't know.
