28w ago - Following up on the previous release and confirming the rumor, today wololo has officially named the next exploitable game that Teck4 is porting TN's eCFW to is indeed Gravity Crash Portable.

Below are the details from his blog, to quote: If you missed both the Ubanix and the Mad blocker alpha exploits, today might be your lucky day. Japanese Developer Teck4 has ported TN’s eCFW to a new game exploit. The game is, as I type this, still available on most stores.

A few weeks ago, developer frostegater announced he was working on a new game exploit in order to bring Total_Noob’s eCFW to even more Vita owner. Sadly, he discovered while working on international versions of the game, that porting his exploits to all locales would not be as easy as expected. Luckily for us, Teck4 also had his own exploit in the work, and was nice enough to share it with the world. Frostegater eventually contributed to this exploit as well, by porting it to the US and EU versions of the game.

The game with the vulnerability is Gravity...

28w ago - Today Atlus Manager of PR and Sales Aram Jabbari has shared a video guide spotlighting the application of their Persona 4 Golden PS Vita Skin below.

To quote: Did you know that Persona 4 Golden is only 18 days away? That's 432 hours. 25,920 minutes. 1,555,200 seconds. THAT'S PRACTICALLY NOW, FRIENDS.

Seeing as how P4G's unique blend of social-life-developing and evil-shadow-defeating roleplaying gameplay is a must-own for PS Vita owners (YEAH, I SAID IT), and it's arguably reason enough for those pained on-the-fencers (Seriously, it must be getting super uncomfortable by now.

We have soothing balm on the PS Vita side, come join us...) to hop off already and snag themselves a sexy new PS Vita, we figured why not pimp out the special pre-order bonus PS Vita skin while we're at it?

Oh, you haven't heard of the pre-order bonus? Well, that's quite a pity, because while supplies last, folks who pre-order Persona 4 Golden from participating retailers will receive a DezaEgg protective skin for PlayStation Vita.

Yes, the same DezaEgg skin that's also included in the completely awesome, completely sold out Solid Gold Premium Edition of the game, which also includes a custom HORI Hard Pouch, HORI Face Cover, and a set of nifty stickers....

29w ago - Sega of America Associate Brand Manager Aaron Webber has announced today that Super Monkey Ball: Banana Splitz DLC is coming to PS Vita with a video posted below.

To quote: Hey everyone, Aaron here from SEGA. If you, like me, are a gamer with fond memories of Super Monkey Ball (Did anyone else play hours of Monkey Target?), and if you're a PS Vita owner, you'll be thrilled to learn that Super Monkey Ball: Banana Splitz is out now!

Below are the details, to quote: Our new social brain training experience for PlayStation Vita, Smart As, officially launches today. We've had a great time making the game, but the fun really starts now that you get to play and we get to see your scores climb the leaderboards.

With Smart As, our goal was to create a cool compilation of puzzle games that let you have a blast while testing your skills at the four key areas of Logic, Arithmetic, Language and Observation.

We also wanted to create a truly social experience letting you compete and prove that you are smarter than your friends, family, your city, country and ultimately the entire world via our online leaderboards.

You can also share and compare all your stats with other Smart As fans and brag about how smart you are on your favorite social networks like Facebook and Twitter, all without leaving the game.

We designed Smart As from the ground up for PS Vita, so the game utilizes all of the system's features, which means you can take on the world with never-before-seen brain twisters.

We've had a great time trying to get the...
