PS Vita: General Discussion

[Rivers-of-Sand]

I've been waiting for a price drop, I'd pay £15 for it. Am I right in thinking the online pass is another £7 or something on top of that £24?

[frodouk]

You surely get the pass when you pay the game? No?

[Rivers-of-Sand]

Now this has dropped to an amazingly low price of £6.99, I'm in.

However I've read conflicting things on the net. Some say it does work on ps vita, some say it doesn't. Do you guys know?

Ouch.. Won't be touching it at that price. It is a good game though, I had it years back on the PSP

Now: €7.99/£6.99/AUD $11.95

Will you touch him at that price?

[Mikestarh]

Socom FTB3 gameplay wise, yes. It's alot better. (It's also got online tdm, unit 13 is only co-op)

Unit 13 is still a great game though just in a different way, it's also the best PS Vita game available at the moment.

Socom's developers were recently shut down however Socom FTB3 was made by a different developer, so maybe we can get another one.

You can use the second stick for SOCOM, but unfortunately you can't map it to the camera, because SOCOM never really had one. I think you can hold down L and then move the second analog for the camera, but you can't do it whilst moving. For the mapping of that second analog stick, hold down for a few seconds on the screen, and it's straight forward from there. 

Oh, RiversofSand mate, definitely a great time to purchase it, bargain price of £6.99, can't go wrong with that! Especially considering it was £24.99 before! I'm impressed at the selection of games that have received a price drop, I'm certainly getting Syphon Filter, does anyone know if Logan's Shadow works on the Vita, doesn't say so on the PS Store?

For those contemplating getting SOCOM Fireteam Bravo 3, now's your chance! Permanent price drop as well, which is awesome.

Just bought it myself...Possibly the worst controls I've ever came across..Really bummed out to. Was looking forward to it but it's pretty awkward to play. R1 doesn't do anything it seems? I was hoping it would just be at least L1 to aim & R1 to shoot.. Can't use both analog either really, as the left one always cancels the other one out, which just makes you spin in circles. 

I'm finding a lot of these PSP games on the Vita don't even work that well. God of War has alot of screen tearing & frame issues. Control schemes for Resistance & SOCOM aren't great at all, althought Ristance is a lot better than SOCOM control wise. 

It'll take a while to get used to using one analog for this game at least.

[Rivers-of-Sand]

Works fine for me, although after getting used to Unit 13 it's a bit odd using one stick to maneuver/look primarily. Use L to strafe, takes a bit to get used to but it's quite a competent scheme for a handheld which only had one stick! ...and R is lock on by the way.

yes it does work as i have a ps vita with Socom Fireteam Bravo 3.
