Thats messed up stuff... par for the course from that pro sjw super ultra left wing censorship pit of a website. I am still bitter for being permabanned for not being "polictiacally correct".... screw the hug box! No dissent allowed we are borg and you must assimilate...

I bought it last night and was hooked until 3am.

Dont let the anti-vita / anti handheld gang on here fool you. Those people bashed it before it was even out, and focused on one biased pre review.

Pros.

+ Looks great for a handheld (dont expect parity with ps4/3 as its a handheld.)

+ framerate seems pretty good, way better than borderlands 2

+Has all dlc inclusing 2 bonus stories and the dlc costumes.

+ Sound is great, even bettwr with headphones.. waepons have a nice heavy sound, while the sound of mobs can clue you in to their location.

+Optional gyro aiming like uncharted and killazone have on vita plus senaitivity selector. Controls are good but can take a little getting used to.

+ Price $23 with psplus, $30 without plus. Great value for the money.

+Full raid mode includes... will take hours of your life.

Cons:

- Textures arent greateat but its a handheld.

- 900mb patch takes up space, default game is 2.9gb

Notes: default brightness is too high, turn in game brightness all the way down. This will inproove grapgics and immersion.

Gyro is off by default , turn it on. I put sensitivity to 8.

Its a great game on console and just as addicting on vita.

@DocSanchez: yes.. agreed, pc and console can live side by side.

I dont spend the kind of money the tc did on a pc though. I build a modest rig with upper mid teir graphics and upgrade as needed. Starting cost, as still usong 24" monitor from 2008, is around $500-600. Cheaper if you can reuse a case, psu, mouse and mobo.

As long as i can run a game over 25fps on high settings at 1920x1200 than i am happy. Most games run much higjer than that.

The games i play on pc though are not console games. I play pc cebtric games, usually simulation, turn based strategy, indie rpg, and old rts (as the genre is dead thabks to dreades moba bullshit)

games i've been playing on pc lateLy

Prison archetect

Gal civ 3

Civ 5

Pillars of eternity

Wasteland 2

Crusader kings 2

Project zomboid

Serious sam 3

TOME 4

Avernum escape from the pit

Darkest Dungeon

Star Point Gemini 2

want to get elite dangerous but strapped for cash.

I also play on ps4, ps3 ,vita, 3ds, and retro consoles.

It is on consoles where i play big name games, like fps, jrpgs, survival horror, etc.

I also use a pc for work and ad i am a web coder.

@ladyblue: finally someone with common sense.

I'll be picking this up tonight. Been waiting to play this in portable form. Id buy it just for the raid mode alone. That grinding combat is perfect for the vita.

Only because you can sell them for steam credits. Just like those stupid card packs... why do some people pay money for this shit?

its just a type of window on the PC... you don't need to own an xbox one to play this... it comes out on pc..therefore not exclusive.

If you want to play that game all PS3 / PSv PS4 cross play games are Exclusive....

That shit doesn't make sense. Is there any day your not shilling for the company?

@sherman-tank1: for me that sucks. I cant stand mobas or any genre that forces coop, with out having ai options as an alternative. I also hated warcraft 3 as an rts but loved wc2 and rise of nations, starcraft, empire eaeth, age of empires and conapny of heroes.

Real rts is dead and i hate that. Ita the mobas fault.

At least i still have new single player 4x games like civ5, Homm, kings bounty, Galactic civ 3, etc...

Again screw u gaben... release halflife 3 and all will be good in the world.

If sony can get out last guadian, ff7 remake and shenmue 3 to their system you can make a game that is 8 years over due.

If blizzard can releas diablo 3 a decade later,.there is no excuse.... besides greed and gaben stuffing his face instead of coding.

@indzman: this the no half life 3, is bullshit.

Lazy devs would rather sit and rack in hat money , promoting multiplayer only crap then make their own single play games.

Screw u gaben.

I don't think that would happen for one reason. Many people are given non-compete contracts on employment. I know I was, it basically a contract that says if you quit, you can't work for another company that competes with the company that you are presently hired for. Mine has a one year clause on it. If you are fired or layed off it doesn't apply. Many companies do this to prevent other companies from stealing talent.

Great post... I tend agree with you. I myself am only sporting a i3 3.4ghz amd 7870 and 8gb ram...+ 24" monitor from 2008, and guess what... it suits me fine. I use it for gaming sure, but also for work coding PHP, building dynamic websites etc.... I could care less about 4k or 1440p as I don't have the money or the desire to buy an expensive monitor for that. My 24" suits me just fine.

There are people on pc who play at every "power" level.

This whole PC vs. PS4 thing is dumb... I play my ps4 as much as my PC... Been playing PC since the 1980s , yeah back when it was 4 colors and cga... Its great and all, but there is something you get from a Console you don't get from a pc and something you get from PC you don't from console.

Console and PC go hand in hand.. You can be a fan of both, I know I am. Why do you people think it needs to be one or the other? It's bullshit!
