I guess it would be fair to mention some of the stuff you liked as well. "It's technically impressive" is not enough. If there was nothing you liked, there's a problem... and it's not Vita's problem. That aside, this was at least different from the dozens of article various sites have posted, so good job there. As for the pricing, only a couple of launch games cost 40 Pounds as far as I know. The rest are cheaper. All in all, reading this article, I get the feeling you're just angry dedicated gaming handhelds exist. Maybe you should write an editorial and explain why, instead of doing this. Oh and by the way, never EVER compare iOS/Android games to handheld games. They're worlds apart. I don't expect the average Joe to understand that, they just see the prices but as a game critique, I expect more from you.
Pretty much every single site has an article on how disappointing E3 has been for them. Why? I kinda liked it. Not the best E3 ever, but it wasn't THAT bad either. This particular article was not really informative, but it was a pleasure to read anyway, which is better than reading stuff you already know AND getting bored. Personally, I think E3 should be open to public like TGS, Gamescom, etc. Press conferences should remain just that, PRESS conferences but everything else, should be available to everyone.
