Toukiden: The Age of Demons Review [IMGMR]

From the famous makers of the Dynasty Warriors series, Omega Force brings their new Feudal-Japan themed style to a new title exclusively for the PlayStation Vita. Introducing Toukiden: The Age of Demons, a game in which demons, or Oni, push the human race close to extinction. Eight years ago, the world suffered the Awakening, a cataclysm where armies of Oni overrun the Earth and destroyed most of human civilization. The only way to defend against the Oni to become demons who slay demons: Slayers. As a Slayer, it is time to embark on a journey to protect life and put a stop to this hell.

Something to play on the vita it seems

NovusTerminus3878d ago

There is plenty to play on the Vita. I have not had many issues finding great games.

Inception3878d ago

Me too. Don't understand why some people still saying vita doesn't have games.

Poor Retail Distribution of Vita Games.
I'm guessing if you want a copy of this game, the only place you can find it are Amazon, Best Buy, and Gamestop if you're lucky.

People that buy games at retail only in walk-in store won't buy from Amazon for some reason. (Not me)

They have to better distribute their 3rd party Japan Vita Games (and 3rd Party Games altogether)

That's why it LOOKS like there isn't any great game, but there are a ton of them.

"I'm guessing if you want a copy of this game, the only place you can find it are Amazon, Best Buy, and Gamestop if you're lucky."

Absolutely false. I can find Toukiden copy in any of my local store.

Not a bad game. I still think that Soul Sacrifice and Killzone Mercenary are the top app for the Vita right now. (Bordelands 2 might bring a lot of gamers on the plateform)

10 PlayStation Vita Sales Success Stories

VGChartz's Adam Cartwright: "A recent piece of news doing the rounds revealed the PlayStation Vita’s top 10 selling games in the United States of America, and it makes for some grim reading. While Uncharted: Golden Abyss rightfully tops the list, it only managed to shift a little more than 400k copies in the States, which is low by the series’ standards and paints a dire picture overall given that it's above all other AAA titles on the list, including Assassin’s Creed III: Liberation, Call of Duty: Black Ops Declassified, and Ki llzone Mercenary (although it’s worth noting that this top 10 doesn’t include any bundled software, otherwise  Borderlands 2 would be at the top and Call of Duty at #2)."

I would think Uncharted Abyss and Killzone Mercenaries should be included in the list.

10 Franchises That Flourished on Vita

VGChartz's Adam Cartwright: "the handheld was unable to attract certain types of software – western AAA development quickly evaporated, as did Sony’s own support, because there weren’t enough consoles out there for such titles to be profitable. But that doesn’t mean that every publisher failed to find success. Indeed, there are a number of franchises out there that have been able to appeal to the Vita’s niche and which have seen positive sales numbers and critical reception, leading to them becoming mainstays on the handheld.

It’s these series that I intend to examine in more depth this article – what they are, what entries we’ve seen, what success they’ve had, and what it’s meant for the console’s future. I’ll be using known sales figures where possible to back things up, hopefully demonstrating that the Vita has been a solid home for a number of great series despite its otherwise weak commercial performance on the market."

All great series. Too bad some of the bigger system sellers didnt follow suit.
