Muramasa: Rebirth free for PS+ members this month

Muramasa: Rebirth free for PS+ members this month

So mad that this happened, i had the physical copy of this game through gamefly, and had beaten the game on both sides and decided to wait til later for the final chapter. Downloaded digital copy, says can't install due to physical, deleted the physical copy icon, installed digital, boom, savefile gone. didn't know the vita couldn't manage saves like the ps3 is able to.

[Tyrath]

I deleted my Soul Sacrifice physical to replace with digital copy and had no issues with save..

[octopus]

Did you back up the save on PS+? The save may still be there.

[Doombear]

Same thing with me, but I had barely put any time into my rental months and months ago. When I got that message I closed it and tried to backup/upload the Muramasa save to PS+ and it couldn't be selected. Odd, but since I knew I wouldn't be losing much I just shrugged and carried on. Really annoying though for someone like you with much more to lose.

[Souj]

I'll keep that in mind when/if I get rid of my physical copy in lieu of the digital. Would be a big pain to lose my save data since I've got the platinum trophy and the two dlcs.
I really hope the 3rd Muramasa DLC is good. First one was fun but second one not so much.

Whether or not it will actually happen is one thing, but in an interview with Games Industry, Twitch COO Kevin Lin revealed that they are looking at bringing the streaming service PlayStation Vita and Nintendo 3DS, though it won’t be without its challenges:

On mobile we just released our first in-game integration, with Asphalt 8 from Gameloft. For now, we’re going to be doing that game by game.

Handhelds – that’s something we’d love to do. On handhelds it’s more of a server/CPU concern, but we definitely want to do it. We want to build viewing apps, that’s much less CPU intensive than broadcasting.

Of course, integration with the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One is Twitch’s “main expansion” right now, with that console integration helping “tremendously in terms of getting people broadcasting and also viewing.”

Lin continued:

Historically it’s been really tough to stream console and mobile games. PC has always been easy because you’re just setting up the software. To broadcast console you had to buy a capture card and cabling, then configure all your software. It was very tedious.

Now each of those consoles represents about 20 per cent of overall broadcasters. There’s about 250,000 unique broadcasters per month from each. We’re pretty excited about those growth opportunities.

E-sports continues to grow. It’s something we love and support, we’d like to see it expand, to have bigger events, more pros streaming. But really, it’s the mid and longtail content that the average streamer is broadcasting. People who are essentially streaming to their friends or looking to meet new friends. Players just hanging out. That’s growing very quickly and console is a big part of that.

While Twitch is an important part of the PS4 and Xbox One, getting the service onto consoles wasn’t a breeze, with Lin saying, “What we basically had to show them was that this is something real, this is something that people wanted. We had to prove that this is more than just watching people, that it’s really about engagement. How to build an experience that lets people engage with your game when they’re not playing it – albeit in ‘passive’ yet still social way.”

Would you want to see Twitch on the PlayStation Vita?

Adults-only version (Cero Z) of Chaos;Head coming to Vita in Japan on August 21st

5pb and Nitroplus are bringing Chaos;Head Noah and Chaos;Head Love Chu Chu to PlayStation Vita. Both games will be bundled together as Chaos;Head Dual and will come out in Japan on August 21.

Chaos;Head Dual will be rated CERO Z, which is essentially an adults only rating in Japan. The reason for the stricter rating is Chaos;Head Noah.

There are two versions of the visual novel, a CERO Z release and a CERO D version. While Chaos;Head Noah has been released for multiple consoles, the CERO Z version is only available on Xbox 360. The PS3 and PSP ports were edited for a CERO D rating.

Chaos;Head Dual will cost 5,800 yen in stores. 5pb will also sell Chaos;Head Noah for Vita and Chaos;Head Love Chu Chu as separate games on PlayStation Network for 3,000 yen a piece.

I just picked up a Vita. Used, near perfect condition, and was sold being told it's only Wifi but turns out it's actually a 3G model!

Is there any real use for the 3G part of it anymore though? I don't really have work commutes or anything of the sort.

[Charismatic]

No idea, I bought the wifi model, didn't even care about 3G.
Get Toukiden though.

[izembo]

3g is useless, didnt take off so most of the "coming soon" features vaporized
