I've never been a big handheld guy until i got my Vita, i love it.

Gravity Rush, Little Big Planet:Vita, Persona 4:Golden, Uncharted:Golden Abyss, Mutant Space Blobs, Sound Shapes are the best exclusive games ive played so far, they are really good.

The graphics vary alot, Uncharted probably has the best graphics, they arent as good as Uncharted 1 on PS3, but its still pretty good. It also has some really good PS3 ports like Playstation All Stars and Need for SPeed, which are basically the same as the PS3 version almost.

If you have a PS3 and a Vita then PS+ is almost a must have with its huge Instant Game collection and discounts on so many things. Thats just my opinion, if it helps almost everyone on the gaming forums who has a Vita likes it.

I love my Vita, but whether its the right system for you is a question only you can answer since only you know your taste in games. but here's a link to the PGD's Vita thread as well as its LBP Vita, PS Allstars and Sound Shapes threads.

Opinions differ and I haven't played everything, but based on what I've put at least a couple hours into I'd say the 11 best games are Gravity Rush, LBP Vita, Persona 4: The Golden, Sound Shapes, Sine Mora (which is harder than frozen diamond, but awesome), AC Liberation (which has been patched, but suffers from more than its fair share of glitches), Luminees: Electronic Symphony, Escape Plan, Motorstorm RC, Mutant Blobs Attack, and depending on your taste in fighters SF X Tekken, Mortal Kombat, Blazblue or PS Allstars (which is admittedly more of a brawler).

All of the post release screenshots are in-game.

Also, while no one knows the timeframe, Sony has stated that a pricecut is happening in 2013.

Yes if you have the cash to spare. Get a PSvita it is worth it.

The graphics are fantastic. Really they are. But like said previously we're not 100% if you would really want it. It depends on what type of games you like. The library is really what you want to focus on.

I love my Vita. Haven't had enough on the system to keep me playing it all year, though. However, if you like JSRPGs, you should get Disgaea 3. It's super addictive.

I only got one because I found a great deal on it, and so far I do not regret that decision. I still havn't played many games, but from what I have played the games look nice and are very playable compared to other handhelds I've played.

Wait for more games and maybe a price drop. Its a pretty cool system but I mean its really lacking games...

In the meantime I recommend picking up a 3DS they're on special at Wal-Mart $129.99 for 3DS with Super Mario 3D Land or $149.99 for a 3DS XL. I picked up a 3DS XL :D

philosophically speaking, you should strive to attain one-ness with the Vita inside yourself.

Despite what people say, I feel that the vita does have a good number of games. Uncharted, Gravity Rush, Persona 4, Little Big Planet, and others are all outstanding games. I don't think there is much question as to whether these are good games, but to whether you are willing ot purchase a Vita to play them.

Research it before making any decisions.
