I gave in and picked up Earth Defense Force 2 on Vita. This is the first release of this game in N.A. and it's only on VIta. I'd rather play it on a big screen, but I'll do what I can with this version. It was $30. Then I preordered Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam coming January 22 for 3DS. I can't wait for that. Here's a pic.
I've got so many ideas for which games to play this month, but I think I'm going with most recent. Which mean I'll be playing EDF 4.1 on PS4 (I got a used laptop bag at Goodwill today to carry my PS4 to my friend Mark's place) and EDF 2 on Vita. It's all EDF until Banner Saga comes to XBO on the 12th and Mario & Luigi hits on the 22nd. Wiiiii!
wow, it's only the 2nd day of the new year and your plate is full! hahahahah
EDF! EDF! EDF!
be careful carrying your ps4 over. Make sure you don't leave a disc inside when you do it.
Yea, I've read all about that with the Xbox. Oh so careful. I got a pretty good laptop bag. It's a little bit padded and not too big either.
Banner Saga is a really cool game.
It's been quite a while now since it came out on PC. Has it been 2 years?
I'm not sure. I'm not ready to admit that much time has passed! 
I'll probably pre-order that Paper Jam game sometime, too. Hope it's better than the last two Mario RPGs.
So far it looks pretty good. GameInformer is talking about it on their podcast this week.
What's that Thumbs game? And one of the EDF games made it on a so-bad-it's-good WatchMojo list I saw. I didn't think those games were bad to start with? You seem to play the hell out of those. Btw, I bought Borderlands Handsome Collection not long ago for $24.
It's the Idle Thumbs podcast. EDF isn't bad, it's just simple. It's like a third-person Serious Sam, now I think of it - hoards of badies and you got one big gun. Go to it.
My friend fired up Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel today to put in the code for the new gun that Gearbox put out there on Facebook. It's a sniper rifle that's also a machine gun. Of course it is.
Oh hey that's cool the Vita got somewhat of a NA exclusive. If you want to play that on the big screen I think the Playstation TV has dropped to $30 used at GameStop. Its an option. Its a shame the Vita doesn't have a special cable like the PSP had where you could play it on a TV
Playstation TV is a seperate thing you have to buy? Weird. I played some EDF 2 on Vita today and it was pretty cool. I have some trouble with my eyes lately, probably because of my neck isssue, which might be fixed soon, so it's kind of fuzzy looking, but I enjoyed it anyway.
Yeah its the TV version of the Vita. You stick the games in a slot on the back and you use a PS3 controller to play Vita games. It also lets you stream PS4 games (I heard mixed reviews on this).
Sucks about the vision. Hopefully that is just temporary.
I don't think I'll bother with PSTV. I used to want to play all my PSP games on PS3, but since then I have more appreciation for the true handheld experience. EDF 2 has a great UI on the Vita. It's very easy to navigate the menus and control the action, surprisingly.
My vision has been variously good and not so good lately. Once I get my neck issue delt with, I'll see a eye doctor. It's weird how neck issues can affect the eyes, but they do.
