Even with all of its flaws, what makes EDF 2017 a worthwhile experience is the sheer ridiculousness of it. Waves upon waves of giant bugs and enemies are coming after you in a city and you have the opportunity to blow them all up with rockets, machine guns, et al. There is something wholly satisfying when you take out 5-6 monster ants with one rocket. And with unlimited ammo for certain weapons, you can also take the liberty to shoot from long distances to test your aim/luck or shoot at buildings and bridges to see them crumble down. Add to that offline and online multiplayer and what you have is also a hefty amount of replayability.
Because blowing up UFO's never gets old.
Satisfying visual feedback, so many games have lost this principle and it's sad. Almost everything you do has an interesting and Satisfying reaction, making everything physics based is the key to that, watching everything fly, crumble, and react to your weapons, and slowly increasing you weapons capabilities to do so to an absurd degree, just keeps ramping up the satisfaction of how good it feels to play this game.
VGChartz's Adam Cartwright: "Thanks to the timing of the Vita’s release and its relative power compared to the home consoles at the time (PS3 & Xbox 360), it saw the benefit of a number of these late ports which have remained the ‘definitive’ versions to this day. It’s these games that I’m aiming to look at in this article – titles that are best on Vita by virtue of extra bells and whistles, tweaked controls, and content, or in some cases just a general feeling that Sony’s portable hardware is the most enjoyable way to play."
VGChartz's Adam Cartwright: "Thanks to some solid late-in-life Japanese support, and a sea of backwards-compatible games, the Vita’s library of third-person shooters is a lot better than it first appears, covering a variety of sub-genres from horror to stealth to tactical, all the while providing games that are a tonne of fun to play."
Missed so many games.
Also backwards compatibility differs from region to region.
Literally some stores like the NZ/Aus store will allow syphon Filter 1 and 3 but not 2 and the USA store is different again
