Honestly I would try out the PSP games on vita, many original ones are great, and also the remastered ports from the PS1 RPG library are pretty much the definitive versions of those games.

I recommend Yggdra Union, Tactics Ogre, Final Fantasy Tactics, Riviera, Star Ocean, Ys, and Legend of Heroes: Trail in the Sky.

You can play every Final Fantasy from 1-X/X2 on the system. Take your pick of one of those. I recommend 9.

I've got most of the PS1 RPGs that I grew up with, I'm looking for more of a new Vita only RPG, which I probably should have said from the beginning. Sorry.

Valkyria Chronicles 2 too, if you can ignore the utterly grating cast, I really enjoyed the srpg aspect.

I really enjoyed the first one, the second was a complete letdown! I didn't need more adventures of the Edelwiess but man, that second game...

Are there any decent RPGs for the Vita besides Persona? I love being able to play anywhere but trying to find one is daunting.

I picked this up via PS+ for Vita and in a way, I like it better than Spelunky. The mechanics are easier to understand and it's, honestly, more fun. I'll never fully beat Spelunky because my reflexes aren't that good, but BoI - I can beat that.

There are so many ways to consume content on the internet that I think paying for stuff you want is the way to go. I currently subscribe to the rss feeds of video game news sites (Joystiq, Kotaku, Destructoid) and I don't see ads there. I almost never visit those sites outside of the headline because, let's face it, you know most of the news already from a quick scan of the headline. It's only when I click through that I am greeted by a side ad or a banner ad and then my eyes glaze over it because I've been on the internet for half my life.

I am happy to be a subscriber to Giant Bomb, not to remove the ads, but because I love these guys and want them to keep doing what I love.

We all know why we’re gathered here today.

We’ve lost someone very near and very dear, someone who made us think about our hobby, made us laugh uncontrollably, made us listen intently every Tuesday, and now makes us cry.

A common theme in the posts regarding Ryan Davis’ death is that people feel odd so deeply missing someone they never met. I think this conflict of mind and heart is unnecessary.

We care deepest about the people who invest deepest in us. These are the people we call friends: the people who cheer us up when we’re depressed, the people willing to discuss the things we care about, the people who take the time to interact meaningfully. Ryan Davis was exactly this. He gave us a window into his personality. He showed as many as would come to GiantBombDotCom exactly what kind of guy he was, and that’s exactly why we stayed.

I could never call myself a friend to Ryan Davis. I’ve been a subscriber for a while. I hope I brought him a chuckle or two with my stupid attempts to be read on the Bombcast’s email segment. That’s not enough to be friendship. But Ryan Davis was my friend. Every last one of Giant Bomb’s users could call Ryan Davis a friend.

So when anyone asks me what’s wrong, I’m not going to say that “a guy I knew from the Internet died.” I’m going to say that a very dear friend died. Because Ryan Thomas Davis was a very dear friend.

This. It's fucking hard to try to explain to somebody why Giant Bomb is so cool, why you throw them money, why you spend so much time watching what they do. I could watch anybody else play video games but man, I come here because of the guys. Fuck the hobby, I come here for the crew. This sucks. Ryan will be missed so much, by people he never knew.

Here's the thing I don't get - they've had a solid year since last year's e3. There had to be more footage of Nintendo properties. What the hell are they doing? Why weren't there a ton of games that make your jaw drop and pull your wallet out? No Metroid, no Zelda, no Smash, no 3d Mario, no Animal Crossing, no Pokemon. Come on. What the hell were they doing for a year?

They actually haven't had a solid year since last year's E3. Nintendo is bleeding money like a stuck pig. As a Nintendo fan you are supposed to buy the WiiU, play some party-games for about six months. When E3 2013 rolls around they will show Zelda, Mario and so on to try and answer the next-gen onslaught from Microsoft and Sony.

Like other people said - this was their year. They had the stage, no other companies were putting out hardware. This was it. They should have leaned hard on people like us with their properties, or just gone full Wii U whimsy Nintendoland. This half and half shit doesn't cut it. When e3 2013 comes around, it's too late. By then they've lost their huge splash.
