Well if thats the case then you may be in luck if you are waiting as i just found this to be the best value pack regarding the Vita and have ordered it ........VITA PACKAGE.

So come the summer and me doing my usual then you might be in luck for a bargain,have to say i was extremely tempted by your offer of Battlefield 3 tongue

Dungeon Hunter, is that the same as the one that has been out on the iPhone / iPad for a year? If so it's a really good game I liked it a lot. I am not sold on the Vita to be honest, the iPad seems to have brilliant graphics and games like Fifa, Sim City, Final Fantasy etc. all play brilliantly on it and only cost about £3 - £5 a game whereas I assume the Vita the games will be £20 ish like DS games? Seems like £269 for a shiny paper weight with a nice LED screen tongue

Unless you travel for work or play a lot of handhelds or are a young person (under 16) I can't really see this appealing to many more.

Bloomin 'eck! I just looked and the games are going for £30 - £35! The graphics look nice on it though particularly on Unchartered but £35 for a handheld game! You're having a laugh.

"At the end of the day its a new gaming device"

Just because it is a new gaming device is not reason to buy it. You're paying £269 for what looks like 1 good game and 2 terrible games. Don't get me wrong it's your money spend it how you wish but I just think there is no need to buy every single gadget that comes out, you're always going to be disappointed. For all the games that come out what 1 in 10 is probably worth buying? On an Xbox or PS3. With a handheld console you can probably double or triple that!

I dont buy every gadget Jaxx come on get real matey,and when i do they normally get traded and i lose a few quid in the process.

I dont drink and prefer to spend what money i have on gaming devices only im not totally blown away buy small screens like the Nintendo ds.

Actually come to think of it you may be right as i do or have had in the past most things to do with gaming that have been released.

And when you say 2 [censored] games then i doubt you know what your talking about,for starters Lumines is one of the best puzzle games ever to grace any system,rayman got incredible reviews on all the consoles and its a lovely platform game because i have played it,and dungeon hunter is suppose to be another decent game even promoted by yourself.

So im not sure where the 2 [censored] games come from but even if 2 of them were not so good its still the best deal.

The games are expensive, agreed. But you are not comparing apples with apples. I love browsing on an iPad whilst watching the telly. But I wouldn't bother gaming on it when there is a PS3 in the same room. But with a PS Vita I get to stream games and interact with the PS3 without waiting for the kids to go to bed. Plus I get to use it when travelling in the car or when sitting at the mother in laws listening to mind numbing nonsense.

I don't like touch screens for the main controls, hence finally the long requested addition of the analogue sticks. The other front and rear touch screen/pad bring something new without forcing them on you as the main control. Pairing a controller wih an iPad to achieve the same makes it unportable IMO.

All in all, if I had the finances available it would have to be a day one purchase for me. smile

Think of it as a childrens charitable donation. It's either a Vita, or the kids school trainers. Do they still let them play football in their plimsoles?

Oh, and one other thing. Can you make sure you buy UC Golden Abyss before getting bored with it? Thank you please. wink

I'm not meaning to compare it to the iPad, I was just using that as an example of something that you can play games on well. I have always thought of Rayman as a bit of a pants game to be honest but different people like different things. I just thought it was funny your only real reason was at the end of the day it's another games console. You will play it for a couple of hours then discard it because you have always said you prefer sitting in your comfy armchair playing on a console so why waste the money in the first place? Just seems like a stupid decision to be honest mate. But go ahead, spend nearly £300 on your paperweight smile
