DHGF: DJMax Technika Tune is a fine rhythm game in general on a console that could use more fine exclusives, and if you can get into the soundtrack, it’s definitely worth checking out. The game is very well presented, as the interface is very well designed and vibrant and the music videos played are varied and high quality, while the soundtrack is clear and full of lots of catchy tunes and the audio effects are all well selected and implemented. The game offers a wide difficulty variance, allowing players of all skill levels to tailor the game to their capabilities through difficulty level selection, mode selection and modification options that give the game strong appeal to the best or worst players out there.
VGChartz's Adam Cartwright: "Despite its somewhat anaemic lineup of backwards-compatible titles (unusual in light of the genre’s strong pedigree on Sony consoles), Vita’s selection of rhythm games is highly impressive in the modern market with genre favourites like DJMax, Hatsune Miku and Taiko no Tatsujin all present and plenty of quirky oddities like Deemo, Love Live & Persona thrown in for good measure. You’re definitely going to need to try your hand at importing to get the most of the genre here, but that shouldn’t be an issue thanks to region-free hardware and easy-to-grasp gameplay."
Kotaku:
The PlayStation Vita turns four today in North America, which makes for a good excuse to look back and reminisce about Sony’s much-criticized portable console.
Come join some of Kotaku’s staff for a chat about the Vita and what we’ve done with it over the past few years.
Its amazing something so small doomed what could have been great. If i can get 128gb in my phone that is 1/4 the size of the vita why cant i have it in the vita. I would gladly pay $300 for a 64/128gb vita, with optional micro sd slot. Seriously WHY SONY???
Vita 3000 with 32GB internal for 200. Would still use memory cards but along with the internal memory. That would do great i think. But i doubt there will be another version.
Favourite memories:
- Playing Persona 4 for the first time
- Playing both Soul Sacrifice games at launch online
- Discovering a ton of PsP games that still hold up really well today
- Realising Ys Memories of Celceta is actually awesome
- Trying out a whole bunch of random japanese stuff (some great, some awful)
- Trying new indies i'd never try on PS4
- Good ports (Blazblue)
Worst memories:
- Having to delete games because I can't afford a bigger memory card
- Resistance & Call of duty being made by the same mobile developer within a year or so
- Bioshock Vita cancelled
- Terrible ports (Jak and Daxter)
- Playing Hyperdimension Neptunia
