Metro: "It does have a few things to teach Monster Hunter, but this unapologetic clone can’t offer anything like the same scope or variety as Capcom’s absent system seller."
VGChartz's Adam Cartwright: "With the sad but expected news that Sony is finally discontinuing production of PlayStation Vita hardware worldwide (combined with the earlier news that cartridge production was stopping in the west), it marks what will likely be the final chapter in the extraordinary journey for this little handheld that could. Despite its own creator rapidly withdrawing development support, third-parties cancelling projects left and right, and more internet negativity than I've ever seen for a console, it just kept trucking on - delivering a brilliant gaming experience for anyone willing to give it a shot.
So in light of this news I wanted to deliver a brief retrospective to what has become my favourite gaming machine ever, looking back at all the things it has done so well throughout its life, alongside a short look at what its final year might hold from here. While it's sad to see the Vita finally reaching the end of its life, there have been so many brilliant experiences along the way that I want to celebrate these here - and I know I've (personally) got many more years of enjoyment to come thanks to my backlog too!"
Digitally Downloaded writes: "This week we're going to have a look at that console that everyone claims lacks games. That's right, the PlayStation Vita. The sad reality for those naysayers is that it doesn't lack games at all. In fact, the Vita has some truly entertaining games that were release to little or no fanfare thanks to the console's utter lack of visibility in the market.
So, if you haven't got a Vita yet, consider the ten games we've listed below. You might not even realise these are available on the console, but if you pick one up and grab these games to go with it, you'll quickly realise just how good the Vita can really be."
Oh hell no I know ragnarok odyssey is not in this list lol
To each their own but I seriously hated that game
i need to get that atelier totori plus, ASAP! because starting next month to october ill be buying a lot of new release vita games, that i might forget this
i wish there is a retail for this game :(
Get this:

It's a new indie game that is available on PS Mobile. Sorry, this is all I could find of the game on Youtube.
Furthermore, I'd advise you check out "LONE SURVIVOR" when it's out which is yet another survival horror Indie game.
I can't wait to see what's in store for the Vita at E3 2013!
I don't agree with this list! This author has bad taste. The only good game on this list is Silent Hill Book Of Memories! Now that is an awesome game.a game worth buying indeed.
New screenshots from Ragnarok Odyssey Ace show Niohoggr, one of the added monsters in the Game Arts’ PS3/Vita game.
thats not good.. I know its a launch title but damn.. It keeps gtn scores like this & ill have to pass on it.. Why were the previews touting how much fun it was?
I have no real issue with the review & the person has their own opinion.
However is every review from now on going to be comparing it to something similar? Can it not be about the game on its own merits? I do not care if a game is a 'clone' of something. I wanna know how the game plays, how is the story?, how are the visuals?, how are the controls?, is it FUN?
I played the demo on the japanese store & yes it is similar to Monster Hunter. Well so is Phantasy Star Portable, So is every other game going out killing monsters as its premise. It does not mean it is not enjoyable. I liked the demo. In this reviewers eyes if this game is identical than Monster Hunter is also mediocre right?
My point is stop this comparing it to other games crap cause a game should be viewed on its own. Sorry for the rant but i get tired of this 'shortcut' in reviews.
I can not take this review too serious, I played also the demo on the japanese store and I'm still looking forward for this game.
