![]() Look, I haven't played this, but it's supposed to be interesting. Again – brilliant.Ī beautiful art style and - even better - reams upon reams of tragic childhood deaths as your cursed clan struggles through a lifetime of demon slaying while you marry all your daughters off and, maybe, inbreed them? I would hope not. Don’t care about the “reach the top of the leaderboard” goal? Just arse around in a fast car. An enjoyable 2D slasher.īrilliant open-world racing game with the scintillating, revelatory concept of just letting you get on with it, Most Wanted is a burned-rubber banger from top to tail. Though even the vanilla (har har!) version of the game is worth your time. Vanillaware’s gorgeous ninja-‘em-up, improved from its already-great Wii incarnation and bolstered with a bunch of game-changing DLC that’s soon going to be GONE FOREVER unless it gets some sort of unlikely re-release. Not sure how this one would gel with the rear touch pad, but it’s MGS2 and 3, so it’s on the list. A brilliant game.įairly sure this is the only way to play Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty on a handheld, though MGS3 is available in presumably intolerable form on the 3DS. Surviving even thirty seconds is a titanic achievement, frankly. It’s a Vlambeer epic that sees you launched into frantic dogfights with a host of upgrades and missions to clear. Love Trousers mate, that’s what they call me. Of course, the whole creation suite of the big boy versions is here too, though you can say goodbye to that archive of user-created goodness. Unfortunately.īasically LittleBigPlanet 2 but tightened right up, with a genuinely fabulous campaign seeing you fling Sackboy all over cleverly-designed and thoroughly appealing levels. This was the first (and, to date) only version of La-Mulana that I beat, and it remains possibly the pre-eminent masterpiece of freeware. Also, quite frankly, I prefer holding the Vita to holding the Switch. Yes, La-Mulana is available on the Nintendo Switch, but this EX version is slightly superior with its added bestiary. ![]() An enjoyably pastoral Metroidvania, with an amateurish charm to its visuals. Nifflas’ beloved freeware PC series hit the Vita with a lovely and expansive mash-up of previous Knytt titles and ball-bouncing follow-up Within a Deep Forest. A deserved system seller and easily, comfortably the best Killzone. Intelligent visual design, a fun campaign and excellent multiplayer (with a DLC offering bots for neverending fun) make this one of the very finest Vita games. Also the main character’s towel falls off and she goes “Kyaaaa!” Masterpiece is it? Seems like yer common-or-garden anime pelch to me.Ī brilliant handheld FPS that actually feels like a proper console shooter, no half-measures, swear down mate. I didn’t like this game but everyone says it’s great so I put it on the list. Basically Phoenix Wright mixed with, ooh, I dunno, Nightmares in a Damaged Brain. Problematic fave alert! Troubling themes abound in this accuse-‘em-up in which an imprisoned cadre of maladjusted high schoolers take part in a series of messed-up murder trials in order to liberate themselves from the clawgrip of ursine outlaw Monokuma. It’s attractive and fun, and there’s a dedicated button just for hugging the blob, you big soft shites. WayForward’s reimagined version of the classic David Crane action-puzzler is a soft, sweet, cutesy-poo thing that happens to feature some rather fiendish platform puzzling. It looks wonderfully sharp on the Vita and a ton of fun once you get your head around its tricks and traps. We shall just have to wait and see, shan't we?Īn absolute pig of a platformer, this kaizo nightmare sees adventurer Alban Hawkins getting down to some good, solid adventuring in a series of incredibly demanding, trial-and-error stages. I've also stuck with stuff available on the US store, though I may do a supplementary list for Japan-only titles. Initially I was planning to focus on games that have no physical release, but that felt too limiting so I've just used the criteria of "anything available digitally", which for Vita is - I'm fairly sure - all of them. ![]() I've already done the PSP, soon I'll be doing the PS3 and a final list of errant PS1 and PS2 classics available on PlayStation 3, soon to go the way of the void. As a result, it seems like a pretty damn good reason to prepare a list of digital titles for each system that you really ought to consider getting while they're available. The PSP/PS3/Vita digital stores are about to go the way of the dodo.
