Matthew 6.5-6
5 And whenever you pray, do not be like the other hypocrites; for they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and at the street corners, so that they may be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward. 6 But whenever you pray, go into your room and shut the door and pray to your Father who is in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you.

There were some fantastic games eventually on the DS. Lots of little innovative titles added up over the years - it’s just quite a large financial hump to get over for me to get the machine to begin with. I know, 18 months into its life, once I get one I’ll have a good few hours’ worth of entertainment on my hands.
Conversely, if the Vita can keep up the momentum from E3, and not drag its announced titles out over 2 years like Nintendo, I can’t see me being able to resist buying one in the first three months. I just really really hope we get synergy (yes - I said it - but it’s actually relevant… I think) between it and the home Playstation. I want to be levelling up my Valkyria Chronicles characters by playing randomly-generated levels on the train, and designing ModNation tracks to be uploaded when I get home. The thought of that level of interoperability gives me a major nerdboner! Please enforce it, Sony. Make it part of the certification process for every game.
