So i spent most of yesterday evening playing the vita in bed, and being able to play games on it that look hardly any different to their home console counterparts (uncharted and rayman origins for example) it's almost like having a portable ps3.
I found myself really liking the friends list on the vita, because I can log in using my ps3 network ID so I can still chat to my friends who are on the ps3 whilst I am on my vita which is very impressive.
With the vita my whole trophy collection now travels with me, and I can view and compare my trophies with my friends on the fly. I like the fact that the vita games also include trophies, I always found achievements and trophies add extra life to a game, and give you a sense of accomplishment, especially if you obtain a time consuming or difficult achievement.
There is an app on the vita called "near", which picks up who else is also playing on a vita in the same area as you, and I was very surprised to see about 6 or 7 people pop up in my normally quiet area, playing there's.
There are still a few more features and games on the vita that I haven't experienced yet, but i hope to play as many as I can in due time.
I spent the remainder of yesterday evening watching a tv show called "the hard times of rj berger", which is an American comedy about a teenage boy dealing with problems at school such as girls and bullies and then problems at home with his parents. The program reminds me of my life, and i can relate to the main character having experienced a lot of what he has, and then there is the added laughs on top which makes it even better. I watched the last few episodes of season 2 last night, and it ultimately ends on a huge cliffhanger, and with MTV cancelling series 3 and the show completely, the audience are left wondering how the story carries on. I would still recommend people watch the show as over the 2 series there is a lot of plot twists and turns and the end of series 1 is shockingly good.
So after I finished watching rj Berger, I spent a bit of time on the PC version of battlefield 3, which is a vast improvement over the console version, both in terms of graphics and player count, the Xbox version only allows 12 v 12 players max whereas the PC version allows 32 v 32 which makes a huge difference, especially on the larger maps which really feel like a huge open conflict unlike on console where they felt a little empty. You can also play the same map as many times as you like unlike console that has a forced map rotation which used to annoy me.
So that's all for today, I wouldn't normally talk about tv shows, but if this is going to continue being a daily blog then I can't ALWAYS talk about tech related things, as people would get bored and I would run out of things to talk about. I may blog over the weekend if I have the time.
Maybe see you tomorrow
Ryan
