I'll probably get it, just so I can play Disgaea 3 if nothing else. But the initial reviews for the launch titles have been disappointing. No killer app as of yet. And none on the horizon either. PSV seems set for failure right now.

Okay, yes it looks superb. But is it a launch title?

Well, yeah, exactly my point! Imagine GOW with some dumb tacked-on touch screen QTE. It might sound good but no, it doesn't work.

The best use for the touchscreen would be something like the PS Minis. You know, small "casual" games instead of hardcore games. Infinity Blade would be perfect on the PSV.

Mind you, I'm still going to get it. In fact, if I'm lucky I might spot one at the airport and I'll get one by tomorrow. But still, there's a small (big?) part of me that's saying "Screw it! You'll be wasting your money".

QTE/grapples may wrk well ....Slicing every bit of the enemy :D
Getting vita is a good option, no one will regret it... The only option of buying original games is a husstle but we did pass through 4 years of legit gaming with Ps3, dint we? and still its on....
And SEN on ps vita wil be fun :D

In a long Vita Q & A, Sony confirmed the company currently has no plans to make the Vita compatible with PS3 or PS2 titles.

The full question reads, "Is PS Vita compatible with other PlayStation platform games like PS3, PS2, or PSP? Do you have any plan to support other PlayStation platforms in the future?"

The full answer: "Users can play supported digital PSP titles and supported minis. In regard to PSone classics titles, we will announce further details when they are ready. PlayStation does not have plans to make PS Vita compatible with PS3 or PS2 titles at this point."

Q: Does PS Vita’s VGA camera take high-quality photos?

A: Remote Play on PS Vita will allow you to see and control your PS3 from your PS Vita; we’ll have further details to share in the future.
Q: Does PS Vita support Bluetooth headsets or Bluetooth headphones?
A: Commercially available headphones/headsets supporting A2DP, HSP and AVRCP can be used on PS Vita, however they may function differently depending on the device’s specifications. Stereo Bluetooth is also supported, an important feature for users of Bluetooth headphones.
Q: What accessories will PS Vita launch with in the US?

Looks awesome, and I really wanna buy it. But I'm saving my money for lots of games this year, and the first generation is sure to have some issues. Hence, I'll wait for some other model (preferably a SLIM-er one in the future).

Also, it'll be pirated in 2 years MAX, so that'll be the time to buy it. Theres NO WAY I'm buying games for a handheld. Buying them on the PS3 is expensive enough. Though for some exceptional games, I'm willing to make a digital purchase :p

    if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff.

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.
