Playstation Vita thread

[BRIK]

I see! This sounds like good news for my boredom when I have to take that drive.

[MrEco]

So, good news for me, this upcoming Christmas I'll be getting a brand new PS Vita, along with three games. Gravity Rush, Muramasa: Rebirth, and Persona 4 Golden.

Now I know this question must have been asked a hundred times, but I haven't been keeping up on PS Vita releases all that well. So I ask you good Racket community, what do you think are some must have titles for Vita? Don't worry so much about genre, I'm not super picky, though RPG's are by far my favorite.

Also one game in particular I'm curious about. I remember a while back Soul Sacrifice was hyped up as the game which would single handedly "save" the Vita. How would you guys say it turned out?

List of games

For what it's worth, unlike Dave, I would happily put 2 asterisks after both Muramasa and Gravity Rush. Neither is amazingly deep, but I had a blast with both of them.


If you like Rhythm games, Project DIVA F and Project DIVA F 2nd are both fantastic, some of the best rhythm games ever made imo.

I also enjoyed Atelier Totori Plus a ton, and all 3 of that particular trilogy are on Vita.

Steins;Gate visual novel is coming over here on Vita and PS3. Definitely something to look forward to

[dunpeal2064]

I played DJ Max more than every other Vita game I owned, combined. Seriously dumped a ton of time into it. One of the better rhythm games I've played, really only being outdone by Beatmania.

It doesn't have the bells and whistles that Project Diva does, but the actual rhythm game itself, imo, blows Diva out of the water. Great tracks with tons of variety, fantastic modes (All front touch or front+back, both work very well), some interesting mechanics, and some really challenging songs.

I ended up trading my Vita, as the deal was too good to pass up, but I will buy one again JUST for this one game.

The price is a little steep (Or was when I bought it), but its well, well worth it if you are a fan of the genre, I promise!

Are they doing anything nice with it in terms of presentation? I have the collector's edition for PC already.

[Exhuminator]

You guys into visual novel + puzzler have a Vita game to look forward to next March:



Physical release in English no less.

Digging the art style of that one. May check it out.
