Phantasy Star Online 2 Set for PlayStation Vita with PC Crossplay

Good news for Vita owners, Sega announced today that the Vita will get former PC exclusive MMORPG, Phantasy Star Online 2. The Vita version of the game will use the same server as the PC version, so it will be a cross-platform game.  There’s no info on the release date or if it will be coming to the west.

Escape Plan: Pocket-Sized Review

escape plan

Escape plan was my most anticipated game for Vita. It had all of the perfect elements on paper: gorgeous black and white graphics; mind-bending puzzles; innovative controls that could not be done on any other platform, due to the rear touch pad. I truly thought this title was going to be for the Vita, what Pushmo was for the 3DS. Then I played it. As the game progressed, I found myself looking for an actual escape plan to avoid this title.

Uncharted Golden Abyss Review

ucga

I went into this game with little expectations. I had read a lot of mixed reviews and wasn’t exactly blown away by the trailer either. The graphics looked nice, but I had a feeling this was going to be a poorly written, 4 hour experience, providing nothing more than a tech demo. I’m proud to say I WAS WRONG! This is truly like having a Playstation 3 Uncharted in the palm of your hands.
