    It won't wow you, and it won't disappoint you: it'll basically just kind of be there.

    With a decent story and a lot of replay value this title could last you a while and is available at a sensible price, but it's not without its issues and will take up a huge chunk of your memory card. However, it is worth playing and if you enjoy and want more games like these on the Vita then you should consider supporting it.

    Resident Evil: Revelations 2 is a pretty cool game also on the PS Vita, despite a substantial technical downgrade and its some issues with loading times.

    Resident Evil Revelations 2 may be a cut-down port, but if you can forgive its rough edges you're in for a treat.

    Resident Evil Revelations 2 was a decent game when it first come out, and this porting for PS Vita is well done, even if it doesn't add anything truly remarkable. Considering the shortage of games for the Sony portable console, it might be worth a try.

    It translates the core game over to Sony’s portable system without any major gameplay issues. That said, it is a downgrade in every possible way. The atmosphere is diminished by poor graphics, controls are slightly clunkier, and it just makes the experience less special.

    Resident Evil: Revelations 2 on PS Vita is a flawed port that only comes recommended if it’s your sole option of playing the game.

    RE Revelations 2 on PS Vita is the same game we played on consoles, but heavily downgraded visually. This might be fine, but its framerate issues make it only recommendable if you can't play on any other platform or really need to play it on the go.

    Not the best port made for PS Vita, nor the best survival horror that we remember. Technically flawed, still manages to entertain for around 6 hours.

    Sadly, Revelations 2 on the PS Vita isn't the step in the right direction that the PlayStation 4 version was. Clumsy controls, a lousy framerate and - to put it bluntly - ugly graphics make this yet another forgettable Vita effort.

    Even it has a lot of contents packed on a complete edition, Resident Evil Revelations 2 on PS Vita suffers with a lot of technical problems that has a significant impact on gameplay.

    A good game, ruined by a flawed conversion. If possible, it’s better to buy it for another platform.

    It plays pretty smooth, it also uses the touchscreen but it will not trouble you, each of the four corners are an action, for example pressIt plays pretty smooth, it also uses the touchscreen but it will not trouble you, each of the four corners are an action, for example press top right corner while aiming to use your sub weapon. Off course the graphics are not in par with the ps4 version, but in 3gb space you get the whole content, 6 episodes, 2 extra characters for Raid mode and some costumes. I have not tried the on line yet.
    The only thing that I did not liked was the loading time, first time I pressed start, I thought it was frozen, at least there is not a lot of loading in game.

    its a port from the big consoles to the smallest console: the PS Vita however the Graphics are the same just the effects are removed likeits a port from the big consoles to the smallest console: the PS Vita however the Graphics are the same just the effects are removed like shadows Textures, Shaders etc. and you can believe that its hard for the Vita Hardware to Process the Game well (even the Ps3 have Trouble) so i guess the Game Textures on the Levels look not good (downgraded) but the game Models of Clair etc look good and the Mechanics are OK the Update 1.01 for the Game improves the FPS and adds new content ;> on the Vita. Remember this Game was Programmed first for the Big Powerful Consoles and the Pc version require a lot of Minimum Hardware i believe its the Engine and Mass of the Polygone amount at the Same time witch are not Originally optimized and developed on the Vita we can be Happy that we r getting a Portable version :). .

    It is important that you adjust the brightness of the game to its minimum and that you change the parameters of the sensibility of the camera. The defaults values are not correct, and If you change these settings, the game is amazing.
