We, as an industry, are constantly trying to validate videogames as works of art. However, sometimes we tend to leave emotion out of the equation. And SMRPG is a work of love. It has a huge heart, it plays well, it looks great, sounds awesome.
NIS America and Spike Chunsoft are happy to announce that Grand Kingdom will be arriving in North America and Europe for the PlayStation®4 & PlayStation®Vita this summer! A tactical RPG, Grand Kingdom revolves around Four Great Nations battling for dominance over the Resonail continent.
Aside from minor frame-rate issues, “Bastion” on Vita is one of the best games I’ve ever played, on this or any handheld, and beyond. It’s beautiful, fun and haunting. If you haven’t played it, grab a copy for less than a cup of espresso will cost you in London and enjoy game-making at its best.
All in all, for $4.99, you can immerse yourself in a world that will make you re-think your priorities in life. And hell, that’s a hell of a deal compared to my last therapist.
It’s another perfect example of a game that is definitely better on a handheld, a bit like LEAP’s “Squares”: fantastic in short bursts.
Already a success on Steam and mobile phones, Heroes of Loot is coming to PS Vita on September 22nd, according to a PS Blog post by Abstraction Games, the house porting the game to our beloved handheld.
There’s a reason I’m writing this review only a day out of hospital. “The Swindle” is a game that I really, really like. I have fun with it. I think that if you like side-scrolling adventure games, you’ll have fun with it, too.
I have to say, I’m liking this game. This is an experience closer to what I wanted Criminal Girls to be. It’s long, but it doesn’t feel repetitive. There’s decent enemy variation, locations change and the battle system evolves.
It’s not perfect, but… I am having fun with it. And that’s usually a good sign.
Another week, another sale, and this is a big one! At least in terms of numbers, as PlayStation is celebrating its 20th anniversary with a sale that spans its history.
What does that mean for Vita and PSTV? Mostly, a mix of legacy titles and some of Vita’s greatest hits.
I will continue to battle it out with Barny (I’ve already chummed up with him, see?). I’m sure we’ll end up getting that massive payoff.
In the meantime, unless something catastrophic happens, expect a full, glowing review in the upcoming days.
And here’s to hoping it includes my redemption, because for the time being, I suck at “The Swindle”.
Good thing is, “The Swindle” does not suck at all.
