Undead Wolf Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 Yeah, I agree. The only physical copy I could find was Lost Song for €50, which is ridiculously overpriced. Yeah, unfortunately I'm probably going to have to purchase it digitally. It's not the end of the world I guess, but I do like having physical copies. I can't justify spending that much more though. AFAIK Hollow Fragment has no English physical copy on the Vita, not sure about the PS4 version. Hollow Fragment wasn't released physically in the west. There's an asia copy that's in English, but it's pretty overpriced. Ah, I see. That makes sense why I couldn't find it then, although copies of Lost Song aren't exactly plentiful. I'm not sure what I should do about Hollow Realization though. It would be weird to get a physical copy of that when the other games will be digital. Hmmm, what to do... I thought Hollow Fragment got a physical release in the west on Vita but not PS4, but I guess I was wrong. Thanks for enlightening me! The Asian version is tempting, but it's a little outside of my price range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem is games are usually a lot cheaper during a PSN Sale, so I've been getting lots of digital games these past few years . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edunstar84 Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 Caved in and bought Lost Song last week for 300 NOK/£30/33 Euros. It's the cheapest I've ever seen it in physical format. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Satoshi Ookami Posted October 13, 2016 Author Share Posted October 13, 2016 This is unrelated, but I still haven't played any of these games, although I do want to. I'm conflicted about what platform I should play them on. I mean Vita is obviously my first choice, but I've heard the translation is pretty awful for the first game on Vita. Then there's the online trophies that kind of scare me. I'd rather not have to set up a boosting session. Can anyone help alleviate my fears? I still don't get what was so bad about the translation... :/ It was one of the best translations I have ever seen. The only thing I missed were honorifics =D Original Vita >>>>>>> PS4 translation any day =D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very interesting... I would of never guessed. It's funny, I just looked at the PlayStation store and noticed that I already own the PS4 version of Hollow Fragment. I completely forgot that I bought it. lol I might just buy it on Vita anyway since I think that I'll prefer playing these games on a handheld. I guess it doesn't hurt to have both versions anyway since they have separate trophy lists. Stack those plats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DioTheRoadroIler Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 Ok guys, I wanna ask you something that is on topic and off topic at the same time. The price for the Vita version of SAO:HR is 25 punds. BUT, with the same money I can buy God Eater 2 with God Eater Resurrection. I know I'll love SAO, and I've never played a monster hunting game before, but I've heard so much praise about God Eater, and since it's 2 games It's a difficult decision. Any suggestions?

It's super fun! It's 50% of fun PS4 translation is shit. It's proper, way too English tryhard, no weebness anywhere :/ (Btw, unrelated, your 7500th trophy is pretty nice xDDDD) Ok guys, I wanna ask you something that is on topic and off topic at the same time.

Both All three aren't possible? Well... it's a bit hard. If you want Resurrection, you will have to buy GE2 anyway, plus, as you said, it's 2 games for the price of one. Also SAO has a chance to be in sale. So... unless you mind waiting for SAO, GE is probably better choice for you. And... it's even harder for me because... as people probably know, I LOVE God Eater =D Edited October 13, 2016 by Satoshi Ookami Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You see, my birthday is coming up and I'm going to ask my dad for one of those. I'll ask him for both tbh, but in case he says no (which he'll probably do, we're not made out of money ) I need to think which I'll ask for. What do you do in God Eater? Monster Hunting, I know, but is it just killing monsters or does it have a story behind that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's proper, way too English tryhard, no weebness anywhere :/ This is all I need to be convinced that Vita is the correct and proper version to get. When I see it goes on sale next, I'll buy it. I'm just not sure what to do about Hollow Realization. If I don't buy the physical copy at launch, I have a feeling it's going to become rare and expensive as a result. I mean £25 isn't so bad for a new Vita game, especially when it's £42 for the PS4 version (on Amazon anyway). I might just buy it even though I probably won't get to play it for literally years. (Btw, unrelated, your 7500th trophy is pretty nice xDDDD) Haha, thanks, I didn't even notice. It's a shame that it's not a milestone.

Hope I'm not too late to give advice! I'm certain that I can get HR for cheaper, but getting a game based on my favourite anime on its first week of release is really exciting. I guess I have 5 days until my birthday, so I have time to think about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I can't argue with that! I was going to pick the GE games up on launch, but I cancelled the pre-order at the last minute. I wasn't the biggest fan of games like Soul Sacrifice or Freedom Wars, and figured the GE games were similar in gameplay. Maybe I should give it a chance though.
