Indies Can Save The Vita

Over the last month the PlayStation Vita has received a ton of great news. Unlike its previous year in existence, this year is shaping up to be very special for Sony’s handheld. Developers are excited about the system, Sony is backing the system up with some very creative and lucrative options and great games are finally making their way to the system in amounts we have not seen before. The biggest news in helping lift the Vita off the ground has been the complete and udder fascination and over-night love that indie developers have gained for the system. Developers behind some of the most strikingly beautiful, innovative and sought after games will be making their way to the PlayStation Vita soon. It is exactly what the PlayStation Vita needs, and could define a new persona for the system.

how can it need to be saved when i already have a ps vita backlog?

bothebo4024d ago

Disagree.... We need AAA titles. Not only for hardware sales but for exposure. The average person doesn't care about indie titles unless they make it big, like Journey.

G20WLY4023d ago

Looking at the scheduling, we're getting both anyway! :)

psp2roundup4023d ago

Indies can fill in the gaps until the next Christmas big-sellers arrive, would be more appropriate. But if Namco can't be bothered to bring its games west, and western developers are keeping shy, things are looking pretty dicey... still with a good roster of indies and smaller third-party titles plus Sony's "blockbusters", I'm pretty happy.

sherimae24134023d ago

indie games are needed to fill the gap between AAA game releases both from sony and third-party
we all know this kind of games tends to have a long development period,
and indie games will keep us occupy for a while ^_^

Original Final Fantasy 7 - Is it Worth Playing in 2024?

Final Fantasy 7 has come back under the spotlight thanks to the release of Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, but is it worth replaying the original?

Got to Zacks part in 7 Rebirth. Said f it. Finishing my game in 7 og. Just got to part 2 yesterday. I also got Crisis Core... So it'll be a while before I'm back to Rebirth. I just keep thinking about it too smh, want to get back to playing it. Not till I know Zacks story though. I beat 7 og sooooooo long ago, it's crazy going through it again and remembering things.

Got to Zacks part in Rebirth?
You mean you started the game and turned it off?
The game starts with Zack...

ravens5213d ago

... Really 🤓 lol. His second part, I've played for 80hrs lmao. <---- PS5 Run time, probably not all game time. You guys know how it goes.

VIK212113d ago (Edited 13d ago )

Did you not ever play the OG FF7? After you recruit Vincent, later in the game, disc 3, return to that basement and look at the pod, there's a whole Zack story that'll trigger as a memory.... it's well hidden in the game and a lot of things regarding Zack are cleared up. FF7 Crisis Core is basically an extend feature of that hidden flashback... It took me years to discover it back then lol

@ravens52
80 hours in Rebirth by doing everything, and you should've reached Zacks story about 5 times 🤣

ravens5213d ago

Ye I kno that's y I said not all gameplay time. But also I am very anal when it comes to exploring.

ravens5213d ago

Not to mention fighting Titan at his full strength. Hours spent trying still haven't succeeded. Found all 3 ruins but I'ma masochist when it comes to games.

Very much so. Graphically it's dated but the story and the gameplay haven't aged a day. It's still one of my all time favourite RPGs and for me is better than Remake in some ways.

Barlos14d ago (Edited 14d ago )

It always takes me back to Christmas 1997, I got it as a gift and I was blown away when I played it. I couldn't believe games could look that good. The combination of pre rendered backgrounds and FMV really made it stand out. It definitely still has a certain charm that modern games can't replicate.

I can't imagine people will still be talking about Remake and Rebirth in 27 years.

Tapani13d ago

Fully agreed. To me the atmosphere, pacing, gameplay and music are all better than in the remake.

Rebel_Scum14d ago

Yes, play this, skip remake, start rebirth for new players.

I_am_Batman14d ago

Skip Remake? That's terrible advice.

leahcim14d ago

Remake is so amazing, pure FFVII Love, play it on PS5 please! aww the graphics the battles, the music... a dream come true.

Rebel_Scum14d ago (Edited 14d ago )

I disagree Batman
