The 1st Project DIVA F Trailer!

Well in this case I'd say don't hate the game, hate the player.

 

Oh, oops. I jumped the gun with my response there Kaon, sorry.

 

Well you could post that question on the video uploaded by that user but I would figure it took a while to make. First they to make the hardware specifically to fit the Vita's dimensions without any degree of error, lining up the buttons and calibrating to respond to the touch screen at a given moment. The programming involved has the machine understanding how the Vita's core actions respond to each button, trigger and touch controls. So not only do you have to set it up to understand what each button does and how you want it to utilize this information but it needs to then equate it to the actions in the game. Since it doesn't appear that this machine is directly plugged into the Vita's internal hardware I would assume that it needs to be controlled by the user as to what you want it to do. *Accessing menus and such*

After that you need to then program it to understand the information it knows and apply it to the rules of the game and how that works. Simple scripting could fit such a purpose once you've figured out each code and how it works. Which means this is someone with a good amount of knowledge in terms of programming and skill, understanding the total workings of software and hardware. Obviously with a great degree of mathematical skill. Even if this was just something fun to do for them it only shows how far someone can go to achieve a specific goal if need be.

As much as I hate this level of cheating I do have to give whomever this is credit for being able to do something like this. However I'm still angry over the idea of it because what will happen next is that we'll start to see people with similar knowledge not just making these things but perhaps marketing them to the public and then we'll start seeing everyday players just using something like this to accomplish the goal of beating the game. What are the real players left with? Sure if your doing this on your own it might not be too bad but what's to stop them from taking this kind of concept into online gaming. You'd never be able to play fair with another person if they've already programmed all the possible moves and how to counter them in a fighting game. Perhaps I'm getting ahead of myself, I mean the complexity of something like this cannot easily be mass-replicated with %100 accuracy on each unit. Not to mention the overall costs of this venture and legal parameters are questionable at best. So even if you did manage to climb over that hurdle, how would you go about marketing it exactly without raising suspicions?

 

That's understandable, if you already have the Vita version then it would be a be a bit redundant to get this one seeing as there isn't enough new content to....it....wait a second....you have the wha?!?!?

 

Basically I was agreeing with Kaon, just 6 new songs alone doesn't really make it worth the money for another version of the same game. Also that very last part of my post was in response to Kaon owning the PSVita Miku Limited Edition. I don't own a Vita but that model makes me want to get one, it just screams "buy me".

In further expansion to my point: If you already own the Vita version, then chances are your not going to "need" the Playstation 3 version as well. If the Playstation 3 version had some hefty changes in terms of content or tons of new additions that made it better than the Vita one, then it would make sense to get it. Seeing as they are the exact same game in almost every aspect, it's kind of pointless to own both. As for the new content added to F, the Vita version will get it at some point most likely.

 

Very true, indeed. I'd be a liar if I said I haven't done the same thing in the past. My best example would be Star Wars Battlefront II, bought it for the PSP, PS2, Xbox and PC because I loved the previous one. Of course the stupid thing for me was that I didn't have an Xbox until many years later so that was somewhat of a wasteful spending.

Also I got a nice little message when I went to check this thread, any idea what this is about?


EDIT by Suyo: It has been fixed. That was due to a signature of a member in this topic.

 

I'm a little bit jealous but I'll get the Vita eventually like I did with the PSP line so that model is something to aspire owning. By the way love the new avatar Kaon!

- Suyo's on it, everything with time.

Miku made it better, that is your answer.
