Ken McKown writes: It is hard not to love what developer DrinkBox Studios is bringing to the table. Their quirky Tales from Space series has dominated the indie scene, and it just so happens to be one of my favorite PS Vita games to date. Their latest effort, once again for PS3 and Vita respectively, continues the trend of excellence I have come to expect from the team. This cross-buy, cross-save action adventure game brings a flavor of Metroidvania mixed with enough of its own creative juices to create one of the finest experiences I have had on a PlayStation platform in 2013.
The PS4 has a killer roster of incredible platformers. Ranging from simple 2D platformers to vibrant 3D platforming games.
No mention of Astrobot on the VR, one of the best platform titles Sony have put out
Guacamelee is an amazing Metroidvania series with a fun story and beautiful graphics. Check out Jason's Nindie Spotlight on this gem that highlights its unique art style and fantastic boss fights..

Hollow Knight is really good. GreenPath was my favorite area of the game.
Guacamelee 1 was also good. I got to check out G2.
I highly recommend TimeSpinner. It's on everything now but I played and platinum'd it on PS4. Excellent classic style MV with a cool 'time' element and hidden secrets, bosses, multiple ending/outcomes, etc. 9/10 from me.
