    The Top 5 Games The PS Vita Desperately Needs

    Its no secret that the PS Vita is struggling in the sales department. Each week we see a failure on Sony's part to correctly market the device, and a failure to move many systems. Its a real shame to see the lack of love for such a great console. All the PS Vita really needs is a couple killer games that would help the system to market to a wider audience. The VitaBoys have decided to compile a list of The Top 5 Games that should absolutley come on over to the PS Vita system. Take a look at the video for the full list, and make sure to hit that subscribe button to now enter our weekly game giveaways.

    Sony Takes More Steps Backwards With The PS Vita, Taking Away Features instead of Adding Them




















     I couldn't believe it when I read about it, thought there had to be some mistake. No, it's actually happening though, say goodbye to two of the PS Vita's apps, and look for less in one other. What has to be considered a huge step backwards, at least to me, Sony is removing the Youtube and Google Maps apps, and cutting features from the NEAR app. Seems like the opposite of the news you want to hear regarding the Vita and it's features.



    With the option of having 3G removed from the later models of the Vita, the Google Maps app became a bit less useful on the go. Wi-Fi, not being available everywhere, really limited it's use when traveling around. I, on the other hand, still use my 3G model(and have even searched around and purchased it more than once) and have been saved many times from being lost by this great app. I admit it does have it's faults, such as seemingly getting totally confused as to where you are at times, but it did function for the most part and got the job done. While there is another map app in the mobile section of the PS Store, it really doesn't compare as you can't use it for getting directions. I'm sad to see this useful feature being taken away from us, and it makes me wonder what's next.



    Oh, we already know what's next. The Youtube app is also being taken away, and while you can still use the web browser to view the site, I really liked the app for quick use. This isn't a huge deal since I already use the web browser for Facebook, seeing as the Vita app for that has been broken for some time now, but again, the point is removing apps is not the direction we want to see Sony. I do wonder though, why Youtube? I mean, it's already available, why bother?




    Finally we have changes to the NEAR app. Now, this one is kind of a hit and miss for me. I use it when I remember, which isn't often, and it never really did much anyways. The problem I have with it was I was hoping Sony would actually be adding to it rather than taking away from it. Location data and the map functions are being removed, other than that, it seems all else will stay the same. Except those were really pretty much all it did besides the gift thing. I really wanted to see this app become more social, maybe alerting you to near by players or adding some social networking features to it. What's funny about it, is whenever I did use it, there was always a "surge in popularity" of the Youtube app.... hmmm.

        While I will miss the map app, the features being removed aren't a big deal, it's the fact that anything is being removed period. Here I am still waiting for a Vine app, or something similar to make use of the video recording feature, a Snapchat or decent, working Tumblr app to make me want to use the camera. ANYTHING, I mean, even fix the Facebook app(I haven't been able to view messages since the last update). Considering they never bothered to fix the Flickr app(crashes every other upload), I guess I was expecting a bit too much.


      With features being taken out, and been taken out, my biggest worry(and this may just be me) is discontinuing whatever deal they have with AT&T allowing to provide the 3G service entirely. I use my Vita everywhere, and that requires being able to get online all the time. I have been even using the Skype app as my phone lately, seeing as I'd rather carry my Vita around than my phone. I like to be able to connect anywhere, which is why I was, and still am willing to pay the extra cash for the earlier 3G models. Yes, you can argue that it was old news when the Vita was released, with the whole 4G thing, but it was an option, an option I feel was a mistake to take out to begin with(I don't know who has WiFi where ever they go, but I don't), and I'm afraid if Sony cuts their ties with the AT&T service, I'll be saying goodbye to the world of the PS Vita, being able to stay connected on a portable device is a huge deal. I'm a man, I don't carry a purse, and I'm afraid with the increasing sizes of phones, I'm not carrying around two giant devices, there can only be one.

     Maybe there is a master plan that we, the players, just can't comprehend. Maybe Sony has this all figured out and we just can't see it. All I know is that whether it be the PS Vita or the Playstation T.V, we need MORE apps and uses, not less. While these features being removed don't affect the devices too much(though I do think having a map on a portable device might just be handy), it's like I said earlier, it's the fact that things are being taken away from us which is the exact opposite of what we have been asking for. I guess we got that calendar way back then, oh, and don't forget themes, cause looking on the store they are really putting effort into those.... I love the games, don't get me wrong, but look at what you are holding in your hand, it can and should be so much more, yet I can't help looking at my dusty PSPs sitting in the corner and worrying just a little.

    The Insane Reason Why Final Fantasy Type-0 Won't Come To The PS Vita

    It has been known for a few months now that the PS Vita was to be skipped over when it came to which consoles Final Fantasy Type-0 would appear on. This decision was still made despite the fact that fans petitioned and pleaded that the PS Vita get a port. The only thing that fans were left unclear on is exactly why didn't the PS Vita get chosen to host a version of Final Fantasy Type-0. Well the VitaBoys have finally found out, watch the video below to find out for yourself.

    Infamous was Coming To The PS Vita, Then it Got Cancelled

    Fans of the PS Vita have been calling for an Infamous title to come to the system for a while. Many thought that the game just hadn't been announced yet, but was still in development. These beliefs were fueled by the fact that Nate Fox, a Sucker Punch worker, had given fans the reason to believe the game was in development. Many can remember his interview during Gamescom a few years ago where he tripped all over himself attempting to answer a question about a possible Infamous title.

    Now a few years later rumors have arose that the game was in fact in development for the PS Vita system, however the title eventually got canned. These rumors come from an ex Sony Studios artist who took to Reddit and leaked these details. According to her report Sony had planned on releasing the title following the release of Uncharted Golden Abyss on the PS Vita system. However Sony had decided not to do this because they didn't want the system to experience a burnout from receiving too many good titles at once. 

    It seems if these rumors are true that fans of Infamous and the PS Vita almost got a lucky break. However now the PS Vita may never get to experience Infamous on its screen, outside of the realm of PS4 remote play.

    Is Gravity Rush 2 Still Coming To The PS Vita, or Going To The PS4?

    Many PS Vita and Gravity Rush fans alike are wondering the same question. Will Gravity Rush 2 still be coming to the PS Vita. After all, Sony has yet to clearly state which system will get the cult hit. Furthermore Sony continues to stray away from the question of which system will receive the sequel. The VitaBoys discuss whether or not the believe the PS Vita system will still be getting Gravity Rush 2, or if there is no hope for the system.

    December Geek Fuel Review

    Hey there VitaBoys and Gals. We here at the VitaBoys know how much you absolutely love gaming related products and attire. Time and Time again you have made it very clear that you want us to show you more products that will fit the gamers lifestyle. Therefore we decided to go on a hunt for some of the greatest products that a gamer could possibly have. Naturally we ran across gaming subscription boxes, where gamers pay a small flat fee a month and receive a box full of gaming and geeky goodies. While we did find several great subscription boxes, one box stood out to us as we searched. This box was GeekFuel. GeekFuel has one tiny flat fee a month and is totally worth the price when you see the box arrive at your door and you get the opportunity to pop that bad boy open. Nothing quite compares to the feeling that comes over a gamer when they get to see the amazing goodies thrown into their monthly GeekFuel. Read on to see everything we were fortunate enough to receive in our GeekFuel boxes this past December.

    The December edition of GeekFuel was easily one of the most fun things to explore. I popped open this bad boy and lost my mind when I saw the amazing content that lied within the sheek red box that had literally just been shipped off to my house the day prior. I was excited just by the simple fact that GeekFuel made sure the puppy arrived as soon as humanly possible. Little did I know that the excitement of express shipping was the least of my excitements for the day. The second I opened the box I saw it was packed full of goodies. I saw so many items in the box that I had no clue where to even start. I did know however, that I had definitely got way more than my money's worth just by first glance of the contents of the GeekFuel. The first item I found was a custom made Princess Leia T-Shirt.

     December GeekFuel
    Price- $13.90
    Price of Items- $72.89
    Savings- $58.99

    Princess Leia T-Shirt 
    MSRP- $16.99
    The Princess Leia Sugarskull T-shirt is impossible to find outside of the GeekFuel box. Trust me I looked. This item is easily one of the most unique T-shirts I have ever found. The design is amazing, and the quality of the shirt is even better. This is not some knock-off 6% cotton junk. This t-shirt is extremely comfortable and not lacking in quality whatsoever, the same can be expected for all shirts that GeekFuel gives out. I can truly attest to that. Furthermore for fans of Star Wars, this item is a cannot miss item. Of course, you did miss it if you weren't subscribed. But it'd be best to subscribe to make sure you had never miss another amazing exclusive like this ever again.

    Android Mini Figures
    MSRP- $9.95
    Now the Anroid Mini Figure was my favorite item in the entire box. Many people would disagree with my stance after seeing the other amazing items the box contained. I just have a thing for mini figures, and I was so excited to see the Android Mini Figure sitting atop my box. The little guy is such a high-quality plastic, and comes in 1 of 7 different designs. I ended up getting the Yeti, and Ang ended up getting the Taxi. Both of the figures had such a great design on them and look amazing sitting atop our studio shelf with the rest of the collection. This also might seem a bit odd to say, but the Android came in an amazing box for those of you who cannot bare to open up collectables.

    Atomic Coffee 
    MSRP- $7.99
    Now this item might sound a bit weird inside of a geeks box. But come on, are you seriously going to complain about getting some more coffee? You definitely won't be complaining after you taste this stuff. It is some of the strongest but most delicious coffee I have ever tasted in my entire life. The Atomic Coffee has a perfect name. This stuff is packed with 50% more caffeine than most energy drinks or sodas. This certainly will help keep you up while you binge on 20 hours of gaming on the PS Vita. Hold up though, it gets even better. The Atomic Coffee comes in so many different flavors. We got Java Blast, and Cinna-Buzz. Try mixing those together and not bouncing off the walls. Now you know why we were able to record such a long podcast last week.

    Terraria Bookmark and Game Code
    MSRP- $10
    I want you to think about something for a second. Just ponder this. For approximately the price of Terraria, you could have gotten an entire box full of amazing items. Oh, and this box also came with Terraria. I mean come on, how can you possibly get any more bang for your buck. We saw this bookmark and thought, awesome a Terraria bookmark, moving on. Then we looked a little closer and noticed that this bookmark also just so happened to have a stinking Steam Game code for Terraria. How can you ever be mad about receiving an entire game, basically free. By the way the bookmark is pretty cool, even though I will never use a bookmark. It has become somewhat of a paper weight for me. See, because it weighs itself down. Of course for those of who somehow like reading, well you now have an awesome new bookmark.

    Nihontown Poster
    Estimated MSRP- $15.99
    These next few items are the highlights of this months GeekFuel box. Starting off these exclusive never before seen items is an amazing poster drawn by Enfu. For those of you who don't know, Enfu is a game developer and illustrator. He worked on huge titles like Halo, and Scribblenauts. GeekFuel had him come over and create one of the greatest gaming posters you will ever see. It is honestly impossible to put into words the quality of this poster. The poster is basically an explosion of American and Japanese culture thrown onto one extremely busy street in Nihontown. The poster references some of pop culture's biggest icons. I spotted several including the likes of Hello Miffy (Hello Kitty), and Charlie Brown. It is one amazing piece of Art and is worth it's weight in gold in my opinion.

    Cosplay Sticker Set
    Estimated MSRP- $5.99
    The next item once again was created by Enfu. He once again uses his amazing artistic abilities to recreate some of gaming's biggest icons, this time in the form of stickers. The artistic genius recreated so many great  characters including, Mario, Batman, Naruto, Boba Fett, MegaMan, and of course Nyan Cat. The quality of the art is amazing, and it is so hard to put a price on these sorts of items. It is definitley known that these items are so rare and hard to find in boxes that aren't.....well..... GeekFuel.

    Holiday Greeting Card
    Estimated MSRP- $2.99
    GeekFuel is all about beating stale mail. Everyone is so sick of bills, and letters, and more bills. They have definitely helped to make receiving mail a lot more fun. They decided to do that once again by throwing in this awesome Hobbit greeting card. This item is of course exclusive to GeekFuel and is actually quite a good card. GeekFuel encourages you to join in the revolution against stale mail. In fact the VitaBoys even joined in. We took the cards and mailed them to two of our biggest fans with an autograph. We wonder what you would do with yours.

    How To Speak Dothraki
    Estimated MSRP- $2.99
    Finally the last item we found in our GeekFuel was a booklet on how to Learn to Speak Dothraki. Now don't be mad at me, but I had no idea what that was until now. Apparently its from Game of Thrones, and now I know how to speak a bunch of the language, and have never watched the show. Regardless, its an amazing item that just shows GeekFuels commitment to provide amazing content for all Geeks no matter what they love.

    It was an absolute pleasure to open up December's GeekFuel. We have always loved gaming subscription boxes, but something about GeekFuel just surprised us. From price, to quick shipping, to customer service, to amazing contents, GeekFuel is one of the greates pleasures I have had in a long time. Expect to hear us talk about GeekFuel many times again on the VitaBoys podcast, and expect many more reviews in the coming months. In the meantime go head on over to Geekfuel.com and check out their amazing products.

    Scram Kitty DX is Headed To The PS Vita after Once Being a Wii-U Exclusive

    After originally remaining a Wii-U exclusive for quite some time, Dakko Dakko have decided to bring their hit title, Scram Kitty DX, to the PS Vita and PS4. This news was announced earlier today.

    Scram Kitty DX will support crossplay between the PS Vita and PS4 versions so fans dont have to play two different files on their systems. This version of Scram Kitty will even implement a brand new gameplay mode called Challenge Mode, which is exclusive to only Sony consoles. In challenge mode players will be able to attempt and beat the clock by collecting as many cats as they can before the time limit runs dry.

    Scram Kitty DX is reported to be coming to the PS Vita and PS4 systems "very soon." The price of the game is unknown at this time. However, when we find the price you will be the first to know.

    To Heart 2: Dungeon Travelers is Getting Remade For The Playstation Vita

    To Heart 2 has officially been announced for the PS Vita system in this weeks issue of Famitsu. Originally, To Heart 2 was a PSP game that originally launched on the system 4 years ago. The game was very likely overshadowed by the news of a new upcoming Playstation Portable console. Therefore it makes a great deal of sense to relaunch the new and improved game onto the PS Vita.

    To Heart 2 is a Visual Romance Novel that was only released in Japan. The player takes on the role of the main Protagonist (enter name way too hard to spell/pronounce here), who is beginning his second year of high school. The ultimate goal is to obviously find romance. The game is mainly a text driven game.

    The reboot of To Heart 2 is said to have many new improvements. Included in these improvements are, revamped 3D dungeon models, improved resolution, and better graphics. The game will also have a premium edition for those who want it. Included in this is a rubber strap, game soundtrack, and a cleaning cloth.

    To Heart 2: Dungeon Travelers will launch on the PS Vita in April. The price of the game is currently unknown. It is also unknown if the game will be localized. Also as an FYI, To Heart 2 is very risque. Seriously, it only took my an hour to find a photo appropiate for this site.

    Echo Night Coming to The PS Vita

    Echo Night, the PS One survival horror, has officially been confirmed to be headed to the PS Vita system. This news follows a recent rating of the game posted by the ESRB. 

    Echo Night is a first person survival horror. However the game doesn't implement any weapons as you would expect with a first person survival game. Instead players can only make the ghosts disappear by flipping the lights on. The ultimate task in the game is to uncover a mystery about two mysterious stones, and attempt to survive the horrific nightmare.

    Echo Night is a welcomed addition to the PS One classics, and will help add to the poor list of horror games the PS Vita currently has. It is currently unknown when Echo Night will launch on the PS Vita, PS3, and PSP systems. However, it is unlikely it will take very long considering it usually only takes a few weeks for games to go from rated to release.

    December Arcade Block Review

    Have you ever heard of LootCrate? You know, the monthly subscription box where you pay a flat fee and get sent a box full of goodies each and every month. Well if you know anything about LootCrate, you know, sure the box is full of great products. However for gaming fans, you and I both know that LootCrate is severely lacking in gaming products. As fans of Video Games and video game products, LootCrate isn't what you are looking for at all. You know what you are looking for? Its called Arcade Block.

    Arcade Block is arguably the greatest monthly subscription box for gamers of all types. Each box contains amazing gaming products that you just cannot find anywhere else. When you open your box each and every month, it is like unboxing happiness. Gamers and nerds will find a brand new unique T-shirt in every box. Joining the t-shirt are other great products, such as a unique pop vinyl figure, gaming accessories, comics, and so much more.


    The December Arcade Block was easily one of the greatest highlights of my month. When I popped that bad boy open, I was beyond ecstatic to see the amazing contents hiding within. This months box contained some of the best goodies I have seen to date in any subscription box I have access to. The arcade block contained an amazing t-shirt, a nice gaming accessory, a Halo lanyard, a Zelda figurine, some Sonic fridge magnets, and best of all an absolutely amazing Portal scarf.  This should be enough for you to want to head right on over to nerdblock.com and sign up for a subscription right away. If not keep reading as I detail the great items greeting me when I got this months Arcade Block.
     Decembers Arcade Block
    Price of Box- $20
    Price of Items- $78.91
    Savings- $58.91
    Subscribe
     Each box will always contain a unique gaming t-shirt that cannot be found anywhere else. These shirts are not cheap either, they are all high quality Gildan shirts. Alone those shirts are worth at least 15$. Throw in the fact that they are so unique and have amazing sentimental value to gamers and nerds alike, they are priceless. This months t-shirt was a slightly simpler design than usual, yet unique none the less. The theme of December's shirt was Super Smash Brothers Brawl City. Unfortunately you guys have missed out on this shirt forever, but don't miss out on next months unique gamers shirt.

    Asobu Touch Control
    MSRP- $8.99
    The next item in Decembers Arcade Block was a touch control joystick for gaming on your phone. I had never seen or used something so amazing with my mobile games. I have always been so sick of having to use the touchscreen joystick all these mobile games use. I just cannot stand it. This joystick just pops right on to your phones screen right over the touchscreen joystick. You will never have to use those annoying touchscreen controls anymore. This item just further proves the quality of items that are thrown into the Arcade Block subscriptions.

    Zelda Minifigure
    MSRP- $4.99
     December's Aracade Block also had a figurine from The Legend of Zelda Phantom Hourglass. Subscribers were able to find a yellow egg in their boxes that would contain 1 of 6 different buildable Zelda minfigures. I pop opened mine and found a Knight. Unfortunately I wanted Link. Of course I am not really sure how that matters at all. The minifigure was a high quality plastic toy that came with a minifigure, a minifigure item, and a stand for them to stand upon.

    Halo Lanyard
    MSRP- $5.99
    The next item we found was a nice high quality Halo lanyard. Obviously there isn't too much to say about a lanyard. However if you are a gamer, you have very likely played Halo before. How could you not be overjoyed to have a nice new lanyard to wear around your neck. I know I might have a little something to wear at the next E3 event...... possibly.



    Sonic Fridge Magnets
    MSRP- $18.95
    If you are a gamer of any type You Have Played Sonic. I mean come on, its one of the best games ever created. So you could imagine our excitement when we found a nice large pack of Sonic magnets tucked away in our Arcade Block. There were plenty of different magnets from Sonic and Tails, to the ground they walk on and the rings they play to capture. Heaven knows our fridge is now completely covered in Sonic magnets thanks to Arcade Block.

    Portal Scarf
    MSRP- $24.99
    Finally the best item this month comes straight from the laboratory, Aperture Laboratories to be exact. Thrown into the box this month as the special Arcade Certified Item of the Month is a Portal scarf to keep you warm during this already frigid winter. I have been wearing this since the day I started writing this review. The scarf is not only stylish and warm, but the scarf is also an extremely cool collectable for any gaming fan. 

    Thats it for this months Arcade Block review. In case I didn't mention its just a measly $20 a month to subscribe to Arcade Block. You save a lot of money by subscribing... A Lot! Until next month guys, when we will once again be reviewing Arcade Block.

    Pocket RPG PS Vita Review

       
        I've said it before, releasing a RPG on the PS Vita has to be risky business. With a huge, and splendid back catalog from Square-Enix(though, no Secret of Mana...), and even the recent release of Suikoden 2, your RPG better be amazing. While not quite reaching such heights, Pocket RPG does have it's charm for quick bursts of play. Though I must say, I use the term RPG very reluctantly, as there isn't much to it, still, there is a nice little adventure awaiting you.

    Gameplay- 5/10 Pocket RPG is a watered down dungeon crawler. There are some outside locations, but they don't offer any change in gameplay at all. Luckily, your choice in what hero you choose to play as mixes up gameplay style a bit. You have three choices, Blade Master, Battle Mage, and Dark Ranger. Choosing the Blade Master makes the game more of a hack and slash, as he slices and dices through the baddies in each stage. Both Battle Mage and Dark Ranger make the gameplay more like a twin stick shooter. Charging up magic such as fireballs to toss at opponents as the mage or bombarding your foes with arrows as the ranger. Each character has a different feel to them, though I can't say this will make you want to play through more than once. This is mostly due to the fact that while the gameplay style changes a bit, the actual game doesn't.
        After selecting your warrior, you simply grind through each area until you encounter a boss. Each area consists of 3-4 different sections, though you really won't be able to tell, as there is very little differences between the sections. Areas vary, from snowy outside scenery to the more frequent dark caverns. You will be battling famous RPG baddies such as undead creatures, slimes, and a variety of creepy crawly things. There is very little imagination when it comes to enemies, but in a game billed as a RPG quickie, I didn't expect there to be.
        After each area you are awarded for different feats, such as clearing a dungeon without dying or killing a certain amount of enemies within your last stretch of health bar. You can also buy upgrades and skills with you earned cash and skill points. 
        This is where I had a problem with the game. While skills will carry over from level to level, weapons purchased do not. Anything bought or found in a previous level will be gone when moving on and starting the next. It says you can find these items in a chest or crate early on in the new level, but I have yet to come across that. It's not game breaking, and it does offer a unique challenge, keeping your character from becoming to over powering like in some RPGs, but it is a bit annoying to finally get enough gold to grab a great weapon, only to beat the level and loose it.

    Story- 3/10 While not presented to you immediately, there does seem to be a story somewhere in Pocket RPG. Just a simple, "stop the dark overlord" type thing. I'm not asking for much, but this just seems lazy, as if it was a second thought to even add one. Why not just skip story if there isn't going to be any effort at all put into it. It does nothing to hurt the game, just seems kind of pointless to even mention it.

    Replay- 5/10 Now, as I mentioned earlier, each character offers a good variety of play styles. Unfortunately, as I also mentioned, the core game stays the same. So whether or not you feel like replaying Pocket RPG really comes down to how much you enjoy the game. Personally, I enjoyed using the Blade Master and slashing my way through the game. On the other hand, I don't enjoy twin stick shooters at all, so playing as the other two offered characters did not bring me as much enjoyment. Playing through the same levels again also didn't help much, and I found myself pushing through them just to get it over with. I did find the game worth a play through, maybe trying each character first to find your favorite, but going through the game again just became tedious. If you're going through just for trophies, the good news is the game isn't very long.



    Graphics/Sound- 7/10 This is another category, that when you hear the name "Pocket RPG", you aren't expecting much when booting up. Graphically the game is on par with PSP or even the DS remakes of Final Fantasy games, though, the backdrops don't particularly take advantage of this. The areas are very generic and bland, mostly taking place in dark dungeons, with very few outside areas. It's not that they don't look good, it's just more that it reminds me of something one of the RPG Makers could do.
        Sound effects are nothing that really stand out, but the music is actually quite enjoyable. It won't sell any soundtracks, but I did find myself surprised on the quality.

      In the end, Pocket RPG is definitely worth a play if you enjoy the genre. It's a quick start up and just interesting enough to keep you interested. It's a perfect game for a bus ride or waiting for the dentist. Don't expect a Final Fantasy or Dragon Warrior, but the game does have it's own charm. 
      While I do have a few complaints, such as a lazy story, some repetitive gameplay, and not much of a reason to play through multiple times, my biggest problem is the price is a bit too high. So unless you are a huge fan of hack and slash/RPG's, I would say wait for a sale to pick this up, or the inevitable time it will be free for PS+ members. 

    Gameplay- 5/10
    Story- 3/10
    Replay- 5/10
    Graphics/Sound- 7/10
    Overall
    6/10
    

    Resident Evil Revelations 2 Headed to the PS Vita This Spring

    Last September rumors began to spread of a possible appearance of Resident Evil Revelations 2 on the Playstation Vita. Those rumors wound up being confirmed as truth during The Playstation Experience this past December. Well now Capcom has given us a slightly more concrete release window for the fan favorite on the PS Vita. 

    Capcom has announced that Resident Evil Revelations 2 will comprise of four episodes that will begin to release periodically starting on February 17th. Following the release of all four episodes on PC and other gaming consoles, the PS Vita will receive all four episodes in one lump sum. The last episode of the series is reported to release on March 10th, it will not take very long after that final release for the PS Vita to receive the series.

    Resident Evil Revelations 2 will presumably cost $24.99 for all episodes on the PS Vita. Keep an eye out for the game on the PS Vita in the coming months.

    Monster Shooter: The Lost levels is officially headed to the PS Vita system sometime in the near future. This news comes directly from the developers, Gamelion Studios.

The players objective is simple, survive waves of monsters and ultimately save the cute and cuddly kitten awaiting you at the end of the level. Along the way players are able to upgrade their arsenal and challenge their friends to beat their scores. Gamelion describes Monster Shooter as "quite possibly the best dual-stick shooter... game ever."
