Battle Screen's Christian Cage takes a look at Senran Kagura's first attempt at the rhythm genre, and it doesn't disappoint.
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.

With multiple action games released, a shooting title on the way, and previous titles making their way to the PC, the rhythm game Senran Kagura: Bon Appétit! is the latest entry to arrive for PC users. Packing all of the content previously released for the PS Vita title, is this bursting offering worthy of a purchase?"
"Senran Kagura Bon Appetit is the first major spin-off for the popular Senran Kagura series, ditching the games usual hack & slash affair for some rhythm based action. It also manages to take things in a completely different direction with its cooking contest, with the portable PSVita release now seeing a port to PC - complete with all DLC. Does this port manage to entice you to go back for seconds, or has too many desserts left your stomach upset? Let's take a look..."
