I second the Wipeout DLC if you want more WipeOut action. Played it last night and wow, so good!

I third the Wipeout DLC, it's great, espechially if you've never played Wipeout HD before (like me)

Well, Sony sent my request for a refund to a higher authority. They said they might refund my wipeout hd purchase so I could download it again on my master account. (even though I didn't buy it, I got it for free during the PSN outage)

EDIT: They came back and said they cannot refund a purchase of $0.00 (which I figured). They said they would set up an appointment with me via phone with an agent.

Here's my Wipeout HD gameplay video:

There is more content in each of these expansion packs then in the original Vita version of the game. I think each pack costs $7 a piece if you buy them bundled. The actual game costs $40. And each expansion pack, each of which has more content, costs $7. That's pretty crazy.

well Wipeout 2048 is a much newer game with bigger, more detailed tracks, so it's understandable.

Just picked up the power grip tonight and wanted to share my impressions with everyone.

The grips are the same, soft rubbery plastic that Nyko puts on pretty much all of their batteries/grips. It's similar to the material on the PDP Trigger Grips so if you like that feel, you know what to expect here. Contrary to what might have been posted before, the handles do not fold in and the grip is one solid piece.

They are surprisingly light for being a battery grip. The grips actually feel really solid and and comfortable to hold. I am one of the few who did not like the PDP Trigger feel and these feel better to me. Plus, you still have direct touch to the shoulders which I felt were a little soft with the Trigger grip.

The unit has a sliding mechanism that locks on the very bottom that inserts into the Vita. You put your Vita into the grip, slide the mechanism up and then push a slide button to lock it in place. It feels very secure and doesn't feel like it would fall out.

The top has a little ridge that keeps the top part of the screen from popping out. When you slide and lock in the bottom part, it pushes the top of the Vita against the top of the grip keeping it all secure.

I cannot report on battery life at this time since I only just got the grips. The battery is rated ate 2800 mAh. I'll try it out and see what happens and report back.

Anyway's, here's pics, let me know if you have questions!

Do you feel there's any change the grip might scratch the Vita during removal or when you're attaching the grip?

No, not really, as mentioned, it's really got a soft feel to it.

I've wanted one of those grips ever since I heard about it. Where did you buy it?
