Reality Fighters Review (PS Vita)

Reality Fighters makes me look like a man. A muscle-bound man with giant saggy breasts and a really bad wig. Yup, that’s me on the left there. When you start the game, you take a photo of your face which is then grafted onto a body that you customise further. You can make your character really fat and blobby, really [...]

Uncharted: Golden Abyss (PS Vita)

Uncharted: Golden Abyss feels disjointed. I know nothing about how it was developed but playing through, it feels like there were two distinct design styles at work. The first encapsulates everything I detest about console gaming. The second, everything I love. A weird experience but on the whole, I enjoyed it. Mostly. I started out hating the game. Throughout the [...]

WipEout 2048 – Single-Player Campaign Review (PS Vita)

The thing that strikes you most about WipEout 2048 is how beautiful it looks and sounds. There are so many intricate details on the ships and scenery and I love the way ships expel all sorts of gases and fumes as they race. The video billboards plastered onto the sides of buildings bring the world of anti-gravity racing to life [...]

To Vita, or Not to Vita?

Ever since Sony first released details of the PlayStation Vita way back in January last year (or the NGP – next-generation portable, as it was being called back then), I was immediately sold on the premise. Then we were treated to an amazing full reveal in June, showing off the Vita’s hardware and amazing line-up of triple-A games. Sony also [...]

WipEout Quantum Levitation Video – Why It’s Fake

I recently posted about the Controlled Quantum Levitation on a Wipe’Out Track video that appeared on YouTube over the Christmas period which I think signalled the start of Sony’s advertising campaign for wipEout 2048 on the PS Vita. I asked our resident graphics expert who has worked in the videogames industry for 13 years to comment on the video. Expert [...]

Controlled Quantum Levitation Can Mean Only One Thing

On JISTQuantum’s YouTube channel there is a single video entitled – Controlled Quantum Levitation on a Wipe’Out Track. This video shows two wipEout type ships racing around a small-scale track (Moa Therma from wipEout Pulse) that uses a magnetic field to keep them hovering above the surface. So Sony’s started the marketing campaign for wipEout 2048 then. Good job really [...]

WipEout 2048 – Soundtrack Revealed

The soundtrack to Sony Liverpool’s WipEout 2048 game has been revealed on the Japanese PS Vita website. It’s bad news for all those CoLD SToRAGE fans, like me, who were hoping for remixes of his iconic wipEout music which accounted for 8 of the 11 tracks in the first game. Anile – Change Of Direction (WipEout mix) Camo+Krooked – Breezeblock [...]
