Re: Review: Real Boxing (PlayStation Network - Vita)

@get2sammyb £7.99 is a little much bearing in mind that besides a new lick of paint, I'm not entirely sure what they've added to the existing game.

It's good fun though and the only decent fighting sim we have for the vita, so you'd be remiss in your duty if you were a fan of such things and decided to skip it!

Re: Rumour: Football Manager 2014 Substituting PSP for Vita

After a few seasons the game has to create new players to fill out the team sheets as the older players retire. In my game on FM'08 I was stuck in division 2 with Oxford United, when a player came up through the youth team that had the stats of a top-flight premier league player. Needless to say he was a star, scoring more goals than anyone else and cleaning up at the end of season awards.

This anomaly looked set to continue, until one dreaded day when I decided to try out the 'go on holiday' option. My coach took over my position while I was "away" and when I came back he'd sold half the team... including my star player.

I can't remember his name now, but the name Barry often comes to me in moments of private reflection...

Another fantastic anomaly was when I, a lowly division 2 manager, was offered the job of managing the Portuguese national side. I failed miserably, but it was great CV-filling stuff.

I suppose what i'm trying to say is... I will more than likely get this. It's been too many years and someone's willing me to get it...

The man they call Barry.

@get2sammyb Thanks! it's priced at (an unfortunate) £7.99 so I don't think it'll ever see a great deal of success unfortunately.

@ThreadShadow Not entirely sure. It's been out in Europe since the start of June.

@rjejr It's a PS3 PSN title. It's such a shame as indie games lend themselves so brilliantly to the Vita :/
