Someone here recommended tearaway a while back, gonna try that out. Maybe it'll be on ps+ soon at a discount? Might wait and see.

Oh and I played the 'P.T' demo the other night on ps4, holy crap that game's terrifying.

[Edit] 16gig Vita card is almost full already, 64gig here I come
Is there any problem with fakes? I've been stung before with high capacity cards that are just hacked smaller capacity ones. Specifically the psp ones (pro duo) and micro SD.
I have never had a lag issue that I noticed on Vita... just a slight latency that would affect FPS games slightly. Also you should never use the internet to connect, always direct connect.

Yeah I need to get one of those really big cards, are they in the US yet? Last I knew there were not knock offs yet as it is a proprietary port but they might have made some as of now.

Tearaway is not for me but you might like it. One game I got for PS+ that was a pleasant surprise was Muramasa Rebirth... great hack and slash game and perfect on the vita for in and out play. Same goes for Soul Sacrifice... awesome game and was free awhile back as well.

Nice update! ^^ How would you rate the grading and the archiving done by UKG and the quality of the boxes? Is it good value for money and would you recommend it?

I have nothing to compare them to but the quality of the cases seems good to me, I'm happy with the grades they received. In terms of value for money I'd say it is value for money when you compare the price of just a slide bottom case to the full grading service. Also they are based about ten minutes away from me so I could drop them off and pick them up from the guys dads house.

It did take longer than I hoped from start to finish though, about a month. If I had to wait for postage it would have taken longer.

Overall I'm happy with them and am considering getting some more stuff done.

Yeah it's by far my favourite anime, I'm currently re watching Stand Alone Complex, finished the first gig last night.

I'm looking at extending my GitS collection (not that I have much) so if you have any recommendations let me know I'm interested in some OSTs , are there a lot of fakes about? I know there are tons of fake MGS OSTs out there.

Not sure if you're an art collector but Mondo recently released a Ghost in the Shell print for special GitS screening they held this year. It was done by one of my personal favorite artists, Martin Ansin.

Since it's a foil print photos sadly don't do it justice.

Thanks for the suggestion and yes I'm a but of an art collector. I saw some Gifs of the foil poster it looks stunning, but it's going for big bucks on eBay so I'll have to pass.

I got 4 metal gear rising Revengeance ce's the other day. Don't ask me why I have no idea lol
