    This is a neat little JRPG-like game that was released on Vita, and although it was offered up as part of PS+ in October, I had bought it the month before on a sale. I was enjoying it for the few hours I played it, but in the end, the fact that I stopped playing…

    That was such a disappointment. I was actually pretty excited to play this – and did so on both PS3 and Vita – as I thought it would be a great looking arcade game to play here and there. It does indeed look great, and I love the music too, but either I’m really bad…

    I liked Velocity Ultra, but wow, Velocity 2X is really something else. The ship sequences are still as fun as ever, but what really stands out are the old school Metroid-like 2D action/platforming sequences, when you’re out of your ship. I like how you go from one to the other throughout a level, and the…

    I’m a bit surprised considering I’m not big into fighting games, and that I know this game didn’t do well in general, but I’m actually having a really fun time with it (it’s currently free for Playstation Plus members). I’ve only been playing on Vita so far, but I took Ratchet and just loved going…

    I love the Joe Danger games so much, I’ve played all of them – including the fantastic iOS versions – and I’m still happy to be playing the first one, this time on Vita. It’s still fun, and it does feel really good on Vita. I’m of course so excited for No Man’s Sky, but…

    What a fantastic game. Minter’s been releasing psychedelic shooters for what seems like forever, and this is absolutely the best game he’s released as Llamasoft. It looks gorgeous on the Vita screen, and although it takes some time to get used to Tempest controls with a stick or even d-pad (which I prefer), I’m loving…

    The visuals on this game are really fantastic – it really does come off as a series of infographics come to life. It’s a puzzle platformer, with your interaction with the environment displayed through percentages and axises that you influence by moving/jumping around. I’ve only played through a few levels so far – on Vita…

    I want to play it on PS4 too, but so far I’ve been playing it on Vita, and wow, what a great game to have on a portable. I can’t remember how it compares graphically to the 360 version, but the pixel graphics are so nice and crisp on the Vita screen.
