I received my PlayStation Vita as a birthday gift at the end
of March. Now that we’re in December, I’d say that I am overall satisfied with
it. Of the games that I have played for the Vita, I have liked them all.
Uncharted: Golden Abyss was a console seller for me. It was as close to the “console
like experience” that the Vita was advertised for.
Now that the Vita has PS Plus support, it now has an Instant
Game Collection which includes Uncharted: Golden Abyss, Jet Set Radio HD,
WipEout 2048, Gravity Rush, and Tales From Space: Mutant Blobs Attack!, as well
as the PSP game Final Fantasy Tactics: The War of the Lions. That is a great
line up and features some of the best Vita games available. The 2.00 system
software update also added an improved web browser, an e-mail application, and
PS Plus Online Storage.
There is a new Vita bundle that has the 3G Wi-Fi system,
1-year membership to PS Plus, a Unit 13 game voucher and a 4 GB Memory Card for
only $299.99. That is probably the best deal for the Vita right now for those
who missed the awesome $199.99 or $179.99 deals during Back Friday weekend.
Although the 4 GB Memory Card that is included with it is laughable considering
it could only fit about two of those games advertised. I currently have an 8 GB
memory card and I was able to download Gravity Rush, but none of the others
because I didn’t have enough memory. The 16 GB memory card sells for $50 and
the 32 GB for $100, but has been as low as $80 when on sale.
I was really looking forward to the new Vita releases, Call
of Duty: Declassified and Assassin’s Creed III: Liberation. Unfortunately, I
decided to pass on buying Declassified because of the awful reviews it was
getting from almost every game review website. Liberation received decent
reviews, but it seems it isn’t on par with the console versions. Looking ahead
to 2013, I am looking forward to MLB 13: The Show, Killzone: Mercenary, and
Soul Sacrifice, which all look like top notch Vita games so far.
