    All the hate for Vita is obviously coming from people who either haven't played one, or can't afford one. It's an awesome platform. It has just as many games as 3DS. It doesn't rely on one character for most of its successful games(Mario Kart 7, SML3D, Paper Mario...have I made my point yet?). Now, I like 3DS, but all this hate for Vita is unwarranted. It's a great system. All you haters sound so butthurt. Anyways, Vita is awesome, can't wait for the future!

    I'm getting a Vita for P4: The Golden, but I think I'll pick up Gravity Rush while I wait.

    2 games out of 25 are original

    verses....? I don't see anything original coming out anywhere else, at lest the iterations of existing series here are new.

    I got to agree with GamesRadar, Gravity Rush is AMAZING and probably the best Vita games right now. I bough it yesterday and man I can't stop playing it. The full games is awesome but let me tell you that just the gravity controls alone are superb and addictive. If you have a Vita and don't own this game go now and get it.

    I know what you mean. I wonder if Raven is the only other gravity shifter in the game.

    Ill keep playing my psp.

    Only problem: Almost every game on this list is a mobile version of a PS3 game or a port. That's a bit troubling. Needs more original stuff.

  • TristanPR77 - June 14, 2012 7:20 a.m.

    You are wrong, Gravity Rush is Vita exclusive and is superb, Soul Sacrifice another Vita exclusive, AC3 Liberation another exclusive, Call of Duty Declassified another Vita exclusive, Silent Hill Book of Memories another one, Little Big Planet, Ragnarok Odyssey, all these are Vita original stuff. You should at least make a little research before making a comment of something you don't know about.

    And backward compatibility only adds to its superbness

  • BladedFalcon - June 14, 2012 12:23 p.m.

    And out of those you mentioned, only Gravity Rush and Soul Sacrifice (And Ragnarok Odyssey... Sorta, though the IP already exists as an MMO.) are truly original IPs. The others you mentioned, while not ports, they ARE essentially a mobile version of games you can find and play on the PS3. Which essentially makes it 3 games, against 24 of the list provided here... Making essentially almost every game in the above list EXACTLY what Fuzunga pointed out. You should at least learn to count and read before making a comment you clearly failed to understand.

    I'd buy most of these, if I had a Vita.

    VITA: PORTS AND FLOPS

  • Fox_Mulder - June 14, 2012 12:11 a.m.

    MetroidPrimeRib: Bad trolling and negativity. Do you even like games? 'Cause all I hear from you is about how they suck.

  • MetroidPrimeRib - June 14, 2012 10:44 a.m.

    I like games and the Vita has none

  • Fox_Mulder - June 14, 2012 11:48 p.m.

    Then why even bother posting? I'm guessing you don't even have a Vita, because it does have some good games for it. How would you even know that these games will be flops? Just based off of a name, picture and a paragraph on it? How about you try praising the games that are good and only bashing the ones you've played and genuinely think are bad.

    3DS: Games for children...children like Metroid Prime Rib. Go play another Mario game and STFU!

    I have no idea who Hatsune Miku is, so i seem to be missing out on why several people here seem to be solely excited about it. Anyway... Hm, I guess I now see why this list was forgotten by Sony at the E3 conference. I mean, most of these don't look like bad games... But aside from perhaps Soul Sacrifice and maybe sound shapes, none of them seemed really standout or original for the system. I'm looking forward for guacamelee, for example, but I can also get that just as easily on the PSN, so it would never be a reason to buy a vita. So, back to square one Sony, how exactly do you fucking expect to sell your console with this embarrassingly un-spectacular library? A year ago, I was very excited and almost sure I'd eventually get a Vita, right now, I see no real reason to get one, not right now, and apparently, not later in the future either, if this line up is any indication.

    Every console goes through their own ruff patch in the beginning. 360, ps3, psp (Constantly), 3ds, and now vita all go through the lack of attention in the beginning.
