@m1k3: I thought that myself, though I thought it odd that none of them include the livestream introduction. I jumped into the stream during the middle of the Uncharted Quick Look, so I'm not sure how they started it off, nor if they'll include it in the archived version(s).

I think this stuff is all just going up as soon as the compressor finishes it. So the order will probably be a little weird overnight. We'll get it all sorted in the morning.

Holy... Lots of Vita quicklooks. And I thought today was a slow day. Valentines day is indeed a success.

Dungeon Hunter Alliance looks great, but I bought it for 7 dollars on PSN and its fantastic

And from what i can tell, there isnt any new content

Am i supposed to be really confused by the 40 dollar price for this?

Dave will just get Tactics Ogre and be happy with his Vita. Also check out Jeanne D'Arc while you're at it.

Edit: Okay, apparently Jeanne D'Arc isn't available for the Vita (hopefully yet). That sucks. I guess a NIS game will do as well.

Tactis Ogre has amazing story choices and character recruitment. Mass Effect is cheap knock-off by comparison.

I would not wish that Little Deviants game upon anyone, what a raw deal for anyone getting that bundle.

Unfortunately this. I thought about getting one but 95 percent of it and the games look crappy.

"Oh, so this is...just filling it full of 'Hey man, you should be friends with these dudes near you'. Like, noo...noooo. I'm OK...I'm alright. Thanks, though. Thanks for suggesting some bros."

Jeff, saying what we're all thinking. I really can't imagine adding some random assholes to my friends list because Near suggests it.

Awesome content you guys; this was really cool. You can pinch your caddy... Of course you can, because Japan, that's why!

Funny yet informative as usual. Keep it up!

Considering how apathetic they are towards all these launch games this doesn't seem much better then the 3DS launch.

Dungeon Hunter: Alliance looks a looooot like the Champions hack-and-slash games for PS2. I'll research this one.

Yeah, compared to the 3DS there are some bigger names involved in the launch (Uncharted, Wipeout, etc.), but most of those established series are basically the same (Wipeout) or kinda inferior (Uncharted, ModNation Racers because it has no online multiplayer). Like just about every launch in the past decade, nothing that's going to be a real must-have for people that buy the system 1-2 years from now.

I imagine that feature would be better suited to small places, where people might not know that others whom they might know somewhat own a Vita.

I got the FEB and have had a great time with Little Deviants. Yeah, it's a minigame collection, but there are A LOT of minigames in it. I guess either you like it or you don't, and I even I don't buy into it for $30, but for $15-$20, I think it would have something going for it personally. And yeah, as a free pack-in, it would have been ideal.
