XBLA’s House Party is in full swing again this year and it was kicked off by Trapdoor’s WARP. A quirky main character and simple yet deep control system attempts to deliver an experience that draws inspiration from other titles but wants to deliver an experience all its own. At times the game appears to achieve this but when all is said and done and the final warp has been made, what’s left is a shell of a game that in concept seems fantastic but in practice lacks the one spark that makes a game truly fantastic.

"So some people hate the idea of porting games from the PlayStation Network to the Vita. There’s even been some fantastic debates over the idea of sharing or porting games to handhelds being the detriment of handheld growth, and a significant roadblock to establishing its identity as a viable platform. But with Sony’s insistence that the PlayStation brand will be something that can be played anywhere you go, there’s some games I think not only deserve to be ported over to the Vita, but perhaps could even excel better on the handheld than on home consoles."
EA is now running a Publisher Sale on Xbox Live that sees many games and DLC discounted by quite a bit until February 4th, 2013. Ranging from Battlefield 3 to Deathspank: Thongs of Virtue, and SSX for $10, there's a lot on sale.
