[VITA] Official PS Vita Thread

[Handleit_44]

By the way, finally played some co-op Unit 1313 with Handle It earlier and that shit is a lot of fun.

Game is a blast and plays EXTREMELY well online.

Can't wait to play through some more missions with you, man!


You guys need to pick this game up if you own a Vita... just sayin'.

I'm just waiting for the next round of sales, and b2 get 1s, or Buy 1 get one half off. The Toys R Us one from last past week didn't have virtua tennis, so I'm just waiting on a good deal to grab Unit 13 , virtua tennis or something else.

Didn't see any deals for vita games this week

Anyone still playing Hot Shots? I just got to the 5th series, unlocked "Legacy of Golf Links" (pictured below). I am finding that I am having to play a round several times in order to win. The courses are getting more difficult, as is the competition. I also unlocked 'Easy Mode' but I'll never use it.


As you progress in the single player , you will find that there are two Versus tournaments. In order to unlock the second one, you will need to earn a certain number of crowns as you're playing through the tourneys. I'm not sure how many you need but here is a listing of what is needed in each round to obtain the crown. I know that you need 4 wins out of 5 in order to unlock the first Versus mode. It could be that you need 4 crowns in order to unlock the second, but I don't know that.

 

1-1: win with 2000 points or more
1-2: use a rising shot
1-3: Hit GIR in 1 Stroke on a Par 4 and Win
1-4: win with par on frequency 100%
1-5: win with over 3 bogeys
1-vs: win with an eagle
2-1: just impact frequency 50% or more
2-2: fairway keep 100%
2-3: add a spin on all your shots
2-4: win with 2000 points or more
2-5: don't use a spin shot
2-vs: win within the first 3 holes
3-1: win with 10m or more putt/par or better
3-2: use a pin shot
3-3: win with 3 birdies in a row
3-4: don't land in any roughs
3-5: win with 3 birdies in a row
3-vs: all holes must be done within 1 putt
4-1: total score must be -3 or less
4-2: fairway keep must be 80% or more
4-3: par on frequency 100%
4-4: total score must be -4 or less
4-5: win with no OB/WB
4-vs: win with consecutive birdies
5-1: 1m better pin (par on or better)
5-2: don't use spin shots
5-3: par on frequency 100%
5-4: get 1500 points or more
5-5: get a chip in birdie or better
5-vs: no bogeys
6-1: 2m better pin (par on or better)
6-2: no OB/WB
6-3: no bankers
6-4: 3m better pin (par on or better)
6-5: get a birdie or better on the last hole
6-vs: don't use power mode

I got pissed after my last Daily Tourney info didn't post and haven't played it in about a week. How do you hit a "rising shot" by the way?

Don't know actually. If a rising shot means what I think it means, don't you hit down on the D-pad at impact (hit lower on ball) to make it go higher?

That's not it. That just puts back spin on the ball.

 

[Twigg4075]

Here's a video of one.
[ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oa5t9_7NsUo"]Rising Shot Hole in One Hot Shots Golf World Invitational - YouTube[/ame]

That guy happened to get a hole-in-one with one.

Apparently you need to hold down during the power portion of the swing and then up during contact. Plus you character has to be a level 3. Seems hard as fuck for something you need to do so early on in the game.

 

[Garrett67]

Then I guess I don't know what a rising shot is..

Oh, you posted a video. Let me watch and learn

 

[Garrett67]

I didn't see this under the video so I'll leave it for others

from Gamespot

You perform a rising shot by hitting a super top spin shot that hits the pin. To perform this shot, you hold the down directional when you set the power, and then you hold the up directional when you press X for the last time to hit the shot. The ball will roll up the pin and finally fall back down to the hole.

It's not too difficult to perform this if you're chipping the ball from the fringe and the green is fairly flat

Everyone still enjoying their vita?

I haven't seen many on my friends list this week :joeybats: I'm still playing the hell out of hot shots, and a little bit of MLB the show.

I was waiting for a buy 2 get 1 free deal and target has one tomorrow. BUT all the targets in my area have no stock on all the games I want. I want to get Unit 13, but they don't have Virtua Tennis or Raymans in stock in any of the targets by me Boooooooooo! Maybe another store will also have a similiar sale tomorrow.

 

[jms493]

Yeah I am playing alot of rayman....need to beat that. Then MLB the show

I've got to get Rayman, but like I said, I've been holding out for a sale to grab that and Unit 13. Can;t believe no Targets by me have it. I gotta add you to my friends list.

 

[Garrett67]

Has anyone tried Escape Plan?

 

[Bomberooski]

Absolutely love MLB on my Vita

Absolutely love MLB on my Vita

Ya I like it even more on the vita than the ps3. However, I've never played an online game on the vita yet. So if anyone wants to get a game in the next few days let me know. I want to see how it is online. Maybe if its good, we can get a bunch or regular guys playing.

The vita plays a good baseball game for me. I'm not a big presentations guy, so I set the CPU pitch delay or whatever its called to fast, and the game zooms by. Love getting quick baseball games in.

One thing though, on the vita, does it show you HR distances within a game? Even on fast play on the ps3, the homerun distance appears below the score graphic overlay at the top of the screen after the HR. On the vita, I don't see it anywhere. So I'm guessing no HR distances on the Vita?

It's all I've been playing, except for Crimson Alliance earlier today, for the past two weeks. I see you pop online all the time. You're billyg or something like that, right?

And btw, Unit 13 is a fucking blast.
