Review: Zero Escape: Virtue’s Last Reward (Sony Playstation Vita)
Zero Escape: Virtue’s Last Reward Genre: Adventure Developer: Chunsoft Publisher: Aksys Games Release Date: 10/23/2012 Two years ago, Aksys Games and Chunsoft unleashed 9 Hours 9 Persons 9 Doors onto what could best be described as an unsuspecting gaming community, and the game generated a fairly large amount of press for what was otherwise assumed…

Review: Ragnarok Odyssey (Playstation Vita)
Ragnarok Odyssey Developer: Game Arts Publisher: XSeed Games Genre: 3D Action Release Date: 10/30/2012 I really enjoy the Ragnarok franchise. I tend not to like MMORPGs, but I actually had fun with the core game. Back in 2010 I reviewed Ragnarok DS and found it to be one of the better RPGs released for the…

Review: Zen Pinball 2: Plants vs. Zombies (Sony Playstation 3/Sony Playstation Vita)
Zen Pinball 2: Plants vs. Zombies Genre: Pinball Developer: Zen Studios Publisher: Zen Studios Release Date: 9/6/12 While Zen Studios is likely most notable for their Marvel Pinball series when it comes to licensed tables, they’ve done their share of gaming franchise licenses as well. Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2 and Super Street Fighter II have…

Review: Mortal Kombat (Sony Playstation Vita)
Mortal Kombat Developer: NetherRealm Studios Publisher: Warner Home Games Genre: 2-D Fighting Release Date: 05/01/2012 I grew up an SNK and Capcom fighting game fan. To me, Mortal Kombat was a neat franchise, but it just wasn’t as deep or interesting as games like The King of Fighters, Street Fighter II, Darkstalkers, Samurai Shodown and…

Review: The Pinball Arcade (Sony Playstation PS3/Playstation Vita)
The Pinball Arcade Developer: Farsight Studios Publisher: Farsight Technologies Genre: Pinball Release Date: 04/10/2012 If you’ve read Diehard GameFAN for any length of time, you know I’m a huge pinball fan. In fact, this is my third pinball review of 2012, having already reviewed Zen Pinball 3D for the 3DS and Epic Quest for the…

Review: Disgaea 3: Absence of Detention (Sony PS Vita)
Disgaea 3: Absence of Detention Developer: Nippon Ichi Publisher: Nippon Ichi Genre: Tactical RPG Release Date: 04/17/2012 I haven’t been too impressed with the Playstation Vita. I’ve played all the demos, but as of yet, nothing has remotely interested me enough to pick anything up for the system. I have the free MotorStorm Apocalpyse, the…

Review: Lego Harry Potter Years 5-7 (Sony Playstation Vita)
Lego Harry Potter Years 5-7 Developer: Traveller’s Tales Publisher: Warner Bros. Interactive Genre: Action Adventure Release Date: 03/06/2012 My experience with the Playstation Vita thus far can be summarized thusly: $250.00 worth of potential in a box. Many of the launch titles exhibited the power of the unit, not to mention the new control schemes…

Review: Touch My Katamari (Sony Playstation Vita)
Touch My Katamari Genre: Puzzle/Action Developer: Bandai Namco Games Publisher: Namco Bandai Games Release Date: 02/21/12 It’s pretty hard to imagine, in retrospect, that Namco had any idea that Katamari Damacy would generate any kind of a positive response when it came to the US just shy of eight years ago. A game featuring a…

Review: Lumines: Electronic Symphony (Sony Playstation Vita)
Lumines: Electronic Symphony Genre: Puzzle Developer: Q Entertainment Publisher: Ubisoft Release Date: 02/15/12 Seven years ago, the US market was introduced to the Lumines franchise on the Sony PSP, so it makes a sort of sense to see a new title in the franchise debut with the Playstation Vita, as the PSP was “home” for…

Review: Little Deviants (Sony Playstation Vita)
Little Deviants Genre: Mini-Game Collection Developer: BigBig Studios Publisher: SCEA Release Date: 02/15/12 First party tech demos to celebrate the capabilities of a new console are nothing new. When a new console comes out, the parent company always wants to show off what the console is capable of, visually and mechanically, and tries to put…

Review: Army Corps of Hell (Sony Playstation Vita)
Take Pikmin, give it a heavy metal soundtrack, shake well, and stick it on the Vita, and you’ve got a good idea where to start.
