So looking at this, Sony is having a Vita preview event. Luckily one of the malls is only 45 minutes away so I thought I'd check it out on Friday.

So my fellow tempers, I was wondering if there is anything in particular you want me to look for, any questions to ask while I'm there and after my hands on I could report back my findings.

1) The Vita apparently uses AMOLED screens, which is supposed to have less glare on the screen. I'd appreciate if you'd check how good the screen looks.
2) YES, the Analog stick.
3) What kind of settings are there, that you can tamper with?
4) I'd like to know how you like LiveArea (Vita's new GUI) after actually experiencing with it.

Holy crap, Grapevien Mills mall, that's like 5 minutes from me.
I'll be going tomorrow, definately, thanks for the heads up about this event.

PS - If the OP is ok with it, I'll also answer questions you all have.

I don't mind, Two impressions are better than one.

Also, your mall is open on Thanksgiving? Mines will be closed tomorrow till midnight Black Friday.

Nothing local. They couldn't even do Franklin Mills? That's a huge-as-fuck mall in New Jersey that's not too far away.
Apparently Sony is doing this in cooperation with SImon Malls

It was too noisy back then. If possible I want to find out speaker volume. I hardly use earphones so I hope speaker volume is decent.

Yea, it is (drove by it earlier), but I honestly forgot today's Thanksgiving, so I won't be going anyway. :P
I'll be going Saturday most likely, I try to avoid Black Friday shopping entirely.

    @SylverReZ, that game is one of the reasons i met newgrounds bc the full versión of it is in that site
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Also somebody is remaking it
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, the other game where I found newgrounds is new york shark

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Spoke to Tom Fulp the other day, if he can find his old Newgrounds site content like the mini Flash animations from the 2000's that played on the portal.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    So far no response, but he did say that he'll find them. Wayback Machine doesn't have em.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, atleast the 1999 versión of pico's school is avaliable (the difference between it, the 2006 versión and the 2016 versión is that the speed of the game depends of the speed of your computer and that it had the og soundtrack)
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Another being Pico VS Bear, the original 1999 version before Jim Henson filed a DMCA takedown.

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    The 2006 versión was made when the flash portal was made
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Many people thought it was lost, but was discovered that he hid it on the same page.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, although the "secrets" system where the game was has been removed. Also pico vs uberkids had a netplay versión that was shutdown, although the swf file has been found
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Nope. There are two download buttons on the same page, where you can download the original under a file called "bear.exe". "bear2.exe", however, is the updated game in a Flash projector. P.s. this was on the archived Pico page from 2000.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, That's been there for a long time, too. People who search for lost media don't look hard enough lmao.

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, also the pico 2 demos used to be only for the newgrounds patrons but they are on internet archive too (https://archive.org/download/picos_school_2)

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Iirc the demos were removed from newgrounds in 2022
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, or well only the demo with mindchamber's style was on newgrounds

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Fun fact @SylverReZ: iirc one of the goals on the fnf Kickstarter stated that pico 2 would be finished but the Kickstarter didnt get enough money for that goal to be fullfiled
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, FNF sucks, their community is toxic as hell.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @SylverReZ its a single player game
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @The Real Jdbye, Yea but it has a shitton of mods with their own songs and stuff
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @The Real Jdbye, and quite a lot of people involved in those mods get cancelled
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Newgrounds wasn't the birth of FNF; rather, it was games where you beat up celebrities and parodies.

    FNF was born from Game Jams
