Gamasutra- In his latest Behind the Numbers column for Gamasutra, analyst Matt Matthews looks for hints of what the future holds for Sony's PS Vita by examining its predecessor, the PSP.
While gamers usually take notice of the mainline missions, these 5 side quests deserve more widespread attention for how entertaining they are.
Acquire, famous for games like Tenchu and Octopath Traveler, becomes KADOKAWA subsidiary. Can this mean a revival for beloved series?
I would kill to have a Way of the Samurai game with a huge budget and modern tech... The first game was one of my greatest joys on PS2 back in the day. And I really hope From Software will do something with Tenchu... I hate that they're just sitting on the IP like it doesn't even exist.
Tenchu would be superb in this day and age. Ninja and samurai games are hot right now and more is better.
Final Fantasy 7 has come back under the spotlight thanks to the release of Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, but is it worth replaying the original?
Very much so. Graphically it's dated but the story and the gameplay haven't aged a day. It's still one of my all time favourite RPGs and for me is better than Remake in some ways.
I really hope it doesn't fail. It's really up to us to support this device. I'll probably be switching over to more handheld gaming since I'm hardly ever home.
More support from us means more support from Sony.
Nintendo didn't monopolize the handheld market, it was the customers who prefered nintendo portables, a lot of companies tried.
It will be successful. The Vita has a better launch line up then the original PSP did and Its features just add to its brighter future: Dual analogs, OLED 5inch Touch screen and back panel, Quad core chip, Social connections (Twitter,facebook, near, etc), dual cameras for AR gaming.
"But for all that software available, the real question is whether anyone is making good money on the PSP now, and the answer is most likely no. "
atlus is, nisa is, xseed is, ect
this is a retarded areticle..........the guy has no clue
And the spin this article provides is insane
The psp sold over 77 million units
It has a library of amazing exclusives
It was an amazing handheld.
