Btw...did anyone trade in a eb version of ac:r to fs? I know they refused to take the signature edition due to different UPC.

Ya they do take the ebgames one, I traded in 3 copies of the ebgames exclusive AC:R games to FS for wipeout, rayman and ninja gaiden with no problems. For some reason thought they thought they were to FS exclusive ones even though one of them had the ebgames exclusive pre-order codes inside the case itself lol. Btw my PS3 is also collecting dust as well as my 3DS I bought last month ever since I got my vita lol.

I got a weird email from SEN today.

Dear Sony Entertainment Network account holder,

After performing routine system maintenance, Sony Entertainment Network sales tax records were mistakenly modified and some customer's accounts were charged sales tax in error.

Between November 18, 2010, and April 11, 2011, one or more transactions originating from your account was charged sales tax in error. Correcting this, we will refund the errant charges back to your account in the amount of $1.43 via your Sony Entertainment Network wallet. This will appear in your transaction history as a one-time inclusive credit.

We are diligently working to correct this error and will have your account refunded by March 31, 2012.


Thank you,
The Sony Entertainment Network Team



I don't remember being charged tax on anything for a long time at the psn store... But yay I'm getting $1.43 back in my wallet!

All vita's have this problem, though some have spots that are more visible then others. Just make sure you can't see any of them while the screen is displaying any color expect for black, my first vita had a problem where the black spots were visible during gameplay and video which is not normal. I exchanged that vita and now I can only see the black spots during a completely or nearly completely blank black screen in a dark room. No display technology is perfect and unfortunately this is one of the drawbacks of OLED, but I'd still rather deal with this then having to deal with an LCD/LED screen.

I've been charged tax on everything I bought, except the last thing (whatever it was), and I haven't received an email. If I did, I would be getting $20+ back. Spent $200 since 2010.

OK, going to ask a dumb question. If I get a PS Vita and buy only physical games, do I need a memory stick? I will never download. Do I need it for saved files?

Yes you'll need a memory stick for save files and patches and stuff. Sounds like you'd be fine with the 4gb which is $20.

Do the PSN cards go on sale ever? I stocked up on tons of XBLA points last time RCSS had a sale on them, was wondering if I'd be able to do the same for PSN at some point. Thanks.

I recall RCSS having a sale where you got 2 $50 cards for $80.

Very rare, because they require activation. I did load up on a bunch when Walmart had two $20 cards for $30, but that was a number of months ago.

What control scheme are you using? If you have it on the default, try switching it to "wipeout". It's much easier with left and right air brake set to the triggers IMHO.

Did you buy online from Sony? Are we allowed to take it to them for exchanges etc?

nope i bought the FEB from eb, they just exchange the console out of a normal wifi for me. but i'm sure even if u buy from sony online, you can exchange in store, i have done it before with other items such as cameras and such.

nah this wasn't to everyone, it just happened that the sony rep was at the eb store and i asked if he got any free screen protector for me cause i ended up having to buy another one because i exchanged mine vita. he said sorry no, but let see if i got anything to give u, found a nice vita pouch and gave me that :)
