PlayStation LifeStyle writes "For this week, there were four demos released: Mini Ninjas and IL 2 Sturmovik: Birds of Prey on the North American PSN, and Dirt 2 and Wet on the European PSN."
Nick writes: "WET was a pretty cool experimental project; a mixture of Stranglehold and Max Payne with a bullet-time mechanic and 70’s china-town movie style."
Edgar writes: "Let's don stylish kimonos and travel back to Edo-era Japan -- 2009, to be precise -- and find out what made Mini Ninjas resonate with players of all ages."
This game always reminded me of I-Ninja a platformer game that came out back in the PS2/OG Xbox days kinda wish that game got a remaster.
VGChartz;s Adam Cartwright: "For a console that can only really be seen as a commercial failure, the PlayStation Vita did extremely well for itself in terms of software – more than 1500 games are available for it and that figure is surprisingly still growing each week, despite the hardware being discontinued earlier this year and despite the rhetoric suggesting it’s only a good machine for indie 2D platformers and niche Japanese RPGs.
Unfortunately certain genres didn't receive any representation at all and act as glaring holes in the Vita’s software library. Some of these just aren’t particularly popular on consoles in general, such as city builders, which have been niche for years. It’s these genres I’m aiming to look at in this article – what they are (including examples of some modern entries in the genres), why they weren't represented on the Vita, as well as some suggestions about what alternatives are available to scratch that itch."
Strange that suddenly EU PS Store is getting better content each week than the North American PS Store.
It's been quite the opposite up until now.
Although the EU PS Store is still missing some key titles.
glad i am able to make an account for all regions so i never miss a demo
Guess I got some downloading to do. Nice previews for demos i probably wouldn't have downloaded (save for Dirt 2).
I loved Mini Ninjas, it's a kid friendly game that even has something for us "grown ups". It's very well made, simple and entertaining. Makes me wonder why games have to try to get so fancy, when a fairly simple game like this captivated both me and my son.
I loved the inclusion of the EU demos. Great article wolfehound.
