I have Dragons Crown installed on my 3, and the 5 just shipped so I’m gonna wait for that to see how it runs.
I completely missed the Vita as a system, never so much as touched one. What are your favorite games on it? Bonus points if it’s not graphically intense and doesn’t take too much power.
Some of these will have since release elsewhere so you may have played them anyway but I’ll list off some of my favourites.
Persona 4 Golden
Freedom Wars
Unit 13
Lumines
Disgaea 3
Virtues Last Reward (Also known as Zero Escape, the sequel to 999)
Valkyrie Chronicles
Natural Doctrine
Motorstorm RC
Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel
There are a few other titles that are always highly recommended such as Gravity Rush but I personally could never get into that game. I played a lot of PSP and PS1 games on mine too so my memory is a bit muddied by those but I believe these are all Vita specific games.
I still have my Vita at home that I break out sometimes for long journeys on trains and the like. It is such a good size and shape for carrying around without being a burden!
Sick list, thanks! A number of those I’ve played on pc, but ill check most of them out!
No worries, if you like games like Freedom Wars then Soul Sacrifice and God Eater will also be worth checking out.
If you like Dragons Crown then check out Muramasa.
Danganronpa is also worth having a look into.
You also have World of Final Fantasy, Digimon Story Cyber Sleuth and Dragon Quest Builders that could interest you.
I loved Everbody’s Golf 6 if you fancy a bit of golf.
The port of NFS Most Wanted is probably the best racing game but it is far from the best version of that game.
I’ll stop now, but have fun!
I’ve been on an NFS kick and just finished all the PSP ones actually so thanks for letting me know that exists!
Look at the agent of chaos here only recommending the first Trails of Cold Steel which ends in a massive cliffhanger.
CS1 spoiler
Crow did nothing wrong, uncritical support to the Imperial Liberation Front in their struggle to free all of Zemuria from the genocidal Erebonian Empire
You shouldn’t really play the Vita version of that, though. Ys VIII is another Falcom classic that started on the Vita, but that version is vastly inferior.
;)
I was trying to suggest only games I have actually played myself and enjoyed and I have only played the first one as the wait for the second seemed to go on forever and by the time it came out I wasn’t using the vita anywhere near as much. I do also enjoy choas however :p
Would you recommend it? I want to go back and play the first again but I have too many games vying for my attention!
I enjoyed the earlier Ys games but never played any of the vita specific ones so again didn’t want to recommend things I hadn’t actually played :)
I’d recommend it, but I do love the Trails series in general. Cold Steel II is often considered the weakest in the series, and honestly it does have some serious pacing issues. A weaker Trails game is still a good game overall if you ask me, and it’s worth it so you get to Cold Steel III.
