I recently finished Hoshizora no Memoria, and can't decide whether it's good or bad. Excellent characters, great artwork, good soundtrack, and the central theme of starry sky is very neatly woven into every storyline. Unfortunately the story has many points where it fails badly, and in the end i don't know what to make of it. Terribad story execution, excellent everything else.

I've decided to take a break from visual novels, and i've turned to X3: Albion Prelude. Anyone else play Egosoft's X series? It's the best sandbox game series ever imo - better even than the much vaunted gta. It does have a learning curve of an icy cliffside, but once you get past that it's awesome.

Gravity Rush, Episode 5.

Kat is the most endearing female lead ever. There was something heartwarming about putting her room together. <3
I'm actually just having a lot of fun flying around looking for gems. This place is pretty big, and has a lot of nooks and crannies to search through.
Also, these challenges kick my ass. I love it.

It's easy to platinum to boot!

I'll agree with Kat being a great female lead. There's yet SO much more to learn about her as you'll see eventually.

My backlog for Vita has become monstrous in the span of a month. I have 20 Vita games and 45 PSOne Classics I bought in a shopping frenzy to beat. Who said Vita has no games? :V
Everyone should have their version of "GO MY WAY!!" and "relations"

Dreams won’t end just as dreams,so become my today!
I don’t mind getting hurt,I don’t mind if it’s difficult,ah~, I don’t mind any punishment, bring it on!

I never said it, but I've been scratching my head over it. Anything you'd recommend, or that was recommended to you (if you've yet to play them)?

Maybe if Rebirth would come out, I would. ^^

Hmm... if you're going to get a Vita, I'd recommend:

-Uncharted: Golden Abyss (it's not as "inferior" as people make it out to be. It's and Uncharted game through and through. I dare say it has more longevity than the console games due to the sheer amount of stuff to collect)
-Gravity Rush (THE reason to buy a Vita, for sure. One of the best games Sony has done in years. It's inventive, fun, gorgeous art style, I could go forever. Oh, and the DLC actually adds some meaty content to the game!)
-Tales from Space: Mutant Blobs Attack! (a really underrated platformer for the Vita. Still one of the best games for the system, and it's only 8 dollar, so you can't go wrong at that price)
-Wipeout 2048 (Of all the racers on Vita, I'd say this is the best simply because they tweaked the Wipeout formula for the better and made it more accessible if you haven't played it before)
-Sound Shapes (awesome platformer for the Vita. The music's pretty enjoyable and it's already boasting with user created levels. Not to mention you get the PS3 version for free)

I got a bit carried away :p Granted, I've gotten some ports to, like Rayman Origins (mainly because my friends had no interest in the game) Virtua Tennis 4 (Sega still makes good tennis games), etc., but I think that's what you should look into if you're getting a Vita. Some genres like RPGs are getting more support by the end of the year, with P4G and Ragnarok Odyssey).
Everyone should have their version of "GO MY WAY!!" and "relations"

Dreams won’t end just as dreams,so become my today!

Gravity Rush, Story mode COMPLETE! Fantastic game~!
All manholes found, all travelers found, and all 3 secret fights done. Time to finish up the challenges now.
As for the DLC, I will probably get the Maid one first, after I finish the current challenges.

GJ, glad you liked it.

It's an amazing jewel of a game, and it shows what's in store for the Vita in the future. It's honestly my portable game of the year.

Indeed. I actually just ended up grabbing the DLC right away after all. Good stuff so far.

Regular challenges aren't too bad right now, but I really gotta work on my steering in the sliding challenges. I have a habit of steering too late, while bee-lining for the checkpoints at the turns.

Just been playing flash games lately. Not enough time to fully appreciate a proper one.

Currently playing DJMAX Technika Tune and Earth Defense Force 2017 (Chikyuu Boueigun 3). I can't even think of any other worthwhile Vita games this year.

My Ys Celceta no Jukai LE + accessory set arrived.
That (and continuous Gravity Rush) will hold me over until Technika LE, and Zero no Kiseki Evolution LE.

Nice goody bag.  Now if only XSEED would release it (physically) over here...

Ys Celceta no Jukai. Karna, you're so god damn good looking now~ <3 Celceta is huge, and has a lot of nice hidden goodies to look for. It's even bigger than Altago.

Also, I'm sure XSeed will get to it, once they get Ragnarok Odyssey out there. :3
