As the subject says, I am curious if it is worth it to re-buy Dracula X Chronicles for the Vita. I have the UMD for the PSP and found the game enjoyable, but not sure if it is worth to buy the download to play it on the Vita. I was curious if the Vita fixes the blurring issue, and I did read that the colors are more vivid. I guess that is the main question I have because I already have the PSOne download for SotN, so I don't need this game for that.

Having it digitally does shorten loading times, but there isn't really any need to get it if you already have the UMD.
I don't know if the Vita fixes any of the blurring problems, since, well... I don't have one... yet.
-
The only reason why the PSP DXC blurs is because of the Dot Matrix screen it uses. I Think the screens are now called something else entirely but the original Dot Matrix was exactly the same thing; tiny little squares segregated by even smaller black lines that break up the image. The Vita doesn't use the Dot Matrix screen so there should be no blurring effects disturbing the flow of the image.

Yes i re-owned it on my PSvita and it looks really awesome , you have options to enable Bilinear Filtering or disable it , you can keep the original PSP colors or use the PSvita colors "for a better result" you completely config the touch screen to work on the DxC but i see its useless option to be honest
so buy it if you want a better quality , and yes it fix the blurry that blurry textures by disabling Bilinear filtering and using the vita colors

Config the touch screen for the game? What's it do?

Why would anyone want to buy a Vita in the first place?

Because the thing looks bloody fantastic is why.

The UMD allows for you to download game data to the memory card for faster loading, is this any slower than having the digital copy (PSN) as a whole?
Curious.

its useless actually , for example you can touch the right corner to whip instead of pressing square

hohoho I still woulda preferred MS/Konami made Mirror of Fate for the Vita instead. That woulda been reason enuff for me 2 buy 1
And leave the 3DS for sprite-based, "classic canon" games
is the Vita hackable yet? can you put custom firmware on it?

What I don't get is why MoF couldn't be for both. Does it have anything that REQUIRES the touch screen? Cuz as far as I know, it's completely playable on both platforms.

If they start releasing games I have to play, I'm all over that thing. The hardware looks incredible.

1- Mercury doesn't decide its platfforms, if Konami had wanted MoF for vita, they HAD to make it for it. But the Vita is a sales trainwreck (Unfotunately, it's a GREAT console) so I can't blame them.
2- Yep Vita is hackable. Don't know about CF but Homebrew works like a breeze ;D

On point 2, that's not completely true. They hacked the Vita, but there's nothing usable there yet. But... the PSP emulator the Vita have is hackable... you just need to know the game the hack will use and buy it fast from PSN, before they pull it. So, technically, the Vita's PSP emulator was what was hacked.

Well, I decided to spend the money and DL it for the Vita. I must say, it looks great! The colors are nice, the bigger screen and Vita d-pad are perfect, shorter load times. And yes, it does eliminate the blurring. I must say it is worth it IMO.
-
Although I bought it once, now with my hacked PSP it's pretty much nixed the whole LoadTimes thing. No Vita for me.

@Geist
Most of PSP games looks better on Vita.
-
I absolutely LOVED DXC, and if they'd let you play PSP games on a Ps3 I'd probably buy it again.
-
Too bad the PSP composite cable only fills up about a third of the screen and doesn't even preserve the PSP screen's aspect ratio. That said, games do look kinda spiffy on it...but a short cord means you won't be leaning back on the couch.

Thanks for the info for DXC for Vita. I think I may need to go and pick that up. ;D
