"the PSP version is more versatile, as it will play on both your PSP and Vita systems."
I'm confused. Does the Vita have UMD support that I'm unaware of?

Not to hot about the whole touch screen thing with vita. If I want to touch myself I'll play on iTouch/iPhone!
Solution: Don't buy either.
As a fan of the "hunting genre" of games in general, I couldn't bring myself to play through Lord of Arcana very far... I got past the snake lady, but by then I was exceedingly bored. I don't expect too much that's different from Lord of Apocalypse and I'll be more than happy to shift my MH and God Eater over to the Vita and continue to play those instead.
All I can say is I would have been quite miffed to have bought that at anything above $20.
As for the prices, I guess the PSP version suffers from that SquEnix Tax...

You don't know what a corgi is? Dale North, our dictator of the DTOIDs and Editor-in-Chief, please ban this sick filth! I feel like having a tantrum just hearing that that el estupido doesn't know what a corgi is!!

...Someone ban Monti? Please? I'm a fan of all systems (except iOS), and except when stupid fanboys are defending it, with little to no knowledge of the gaming industry.
And he said he didn't know what a Corgi was.
JOKING OR NOT, BAN THIS SICK EXCUSE FOR A HUMAN! /capsrage

Testing me? That's what my cousin always says... Because you know, he's a poser and thinks that he's all that. Maybe you're like him, I don't know, but I believe that's the case.
Also, Dale is the new EIC, and absolutely loves Corgis. You don't like Corgis, and we'll be forced to ban you, you corgi communist!! >:(
Of course, I'm just throwing communist around. I really don't know anything about politics and the government, but it sure does sound cool!! :D

Is this a common price in Japan for PSP games, or will it be a common price for Vita games? Usually I buy my PSP games on sale for $15-$20, and have had some fantastic gaming experiences for that price. So, yes, $77 seems rather steep.
Now, something I'm happy to see in the movie world is the inclusion of both Blu-Ray and DVD, and for the latest version of Tron: Legacy, they are even throwing in the 3D and digital versions, in the same package.
For Lord of the Apocalypse, when the bundle the UMD and memory stick together, then we'll talk, if the game is any good. If I had to choose I would probably wait and get a Vita version. I have a pile of PSP games that should last me a little while anyway.

The game looks good, but who the hell would pay $77 for this game? I wouldn't pay that much for a home console game.
After playing with the touch controls, and the tilt controls, and the 2 analogue sticks on the Vita - I cannot wait to touch it again!!
I see people like "I'd rather touch my Iphone" - But don't forget, the Vita has twin sticks, all the PS buttons AND Touchscreen. It's not JUST a touch screen, because you know the very worst thing about touch screens? - No buttons.
It's a whole different ball game playing a game with normal controls then reaching in and dragging a grenade to where you want Nathan to throw it (I played Uncharted), or "pinching" the back of the Vita to zoom in a sniper rifle, or the whole tapping an enemy for a stealth kill, etc etc etc.
Seriously: Buttons, 2 sticks, shoulders, tilt, AND 2 TOUCH SCREENS beats pretty much everything.
Also, does this mean Vita games will generally cost the same as PSP games?
i hope so.

Selling on two consoles of obviously different level?
Of course! The guys who are too lazy to buy a Vita will unwittingly buy it, but when they see how cool Vitas are, they'll HAVE to buy it, and will thus buy another copy of the game!
It's all a big conspiracy I tells ya!

I am really liking this Vita news. Dragon's Crown is supposed to be the same price on Vita as PS3 and that is sweet music to my ears.
@Fearzone:
"Is this a common price in Japan for PSP games, or will it be a common price for Vita games?"
I am not sure what you mean to ask there but, these are Japanese prices. The price for Lord Of Apocalypse does appear to be around the same price in JPY compared to other new PSP titles priced in the same (JPY) range.
There is no strong evidence to support the US PS Store having PS Vita titles which are cheaper than retail versions but, that might be the case. PSN only exclusives are going to be cheaper by and large.
