Had to order it at that price. Not a mega fan but for a fiver I will get plenty of use from it. Plus 250 points!

Does it run smoother? 2011 is 30fps with or without 3D. 2012 looks considerable smoother than 2011 when watching videos online. I liked the overall gameplay but the lack of modes was a joke. Just got a refund.


Nah, it runs the same as PES 2011. All they did was beef up the number of modes and add online multiplayer and player development. I liked it, though as I said it plays less like PES 2012 on PS3 but more like PES 5 on the original PSP.

Must have been a price error. It says 31 left but there were 33 left when I got one. I have the receipt for £4.99 so lets see if it happens.

Thanks to c0nfu53d I've been playing through Tekken Prime.

I can see why it attracted criticism for its lack of modes but I think it helps the pick up n play aspect. I can see myself plugging away at the CPU in random fights, levelling up the different characters. The graphics are pretty fantastic, the roster is impressive and the 3D effect is cool (although a little wasted if I get TOO carried away button mashing-err-playing strategically)

You might like it now but be interested to see in a few weeks.

Dead or Alive is the same, fantastic to play but lacking in modes. In the end I got sick of doing the same thing over and over again so I sold it. Stupid stupid design choices.

I actually really, really enjoyed Dead or Alive DImensions. I must have put 40-50 hours into it :oops:

Same. I couldn't sit down with it for hours and hours once I'd unlocked everything but the survival mode was perfect to play when I was on long lunch breaks at work. Great use of 3D too and there's a lot of fanservice with all the characters from various installments lumped into the one game.

I found it overwhelmingly samey. The survival mode is all well and good but the background was always the same so it gave little variation. You couldn't even have an arcade mode that had two bloody rounds in a fight!

I loved the gameplay, fan service and so on but the actual modes were shocking.
