Hitman GO: Definitive Edition is a brilliant puzzle/strategy game that sees the bald assassin make his debut on the PlayStation Vita. Although it may not appeal to everyone, those that do play it will find an enjoyable game that is entertaining yet challenging.- The Vita Lounge

Laser Disco Defenders is a very visually appealing game with a great toe-tapping soundtrack. However the difficulty barrier is set so high and feels so much more unforgiving when compared to its contemporaries that it feels like it may have done itself a slight disservice by only allowing players with the absolute highest levels of skill and patience to sample most of what it has to offer.- The Vita Lounge

Air Race Speed has some good ideas but unfortunately the full package falls short of some of the promise displayed. There are some high speed thrills to be found for those with a speed craving but the game feels like it needs more to feel like the complete package.- The Vita Lounge

Shiren the Wanderer: The Tower of Fortune and the Dice of Fate is a beautiful game with solid combat and a myriad of items and features to find along the way. It's too bad that its punishing nature makes it less enjoyable the longer you play it.- The Vita Lounge

On Paper, La Mulana EX had the potential to be one of the better games on the PlayStation Vita, but it can be overly difficult at times and the presentation is a real let down, pick this one up if you're up for a challenge or a bit of nostalgia, or wait until it's in a sale if you're not too sure.- The Vita Lounge

The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel is a decent game - it has a few flaws that make it hard to recommend to everyone (especially regarding the story), but if you're a fan of the series or genre then it's certainly worth a look.- The Vita Lounge

Heroes of Loot has some fun, enjoyable moments. However, it isn't for everyone, and those that it is for may not find much to do once they finish it.- The Vita Lounge

While you won't find many unique ideas or a shiny polish here, you will find a competent roleplaying title that offers mild fun and challenge.- The Vita Lounge

Don't Die, Mr. Robot! is a game that is simplistic in design and execution yet difficult to master and harder to put down! If you can get past the look of this game, you will find a challenging and fun time awaits.- The Vita Lounge

A Rose in the Twilight has plenty of good ideas - but they're buried under slow gameplay, a scattered plot, and some frustrating design. Despite all this, there's a solid puzzle-platformer with some touching moments to be found here; and although it's not one I can recommend wholeheartedly, it's fun enough for the price that it's worth checking out.- The Vita Lounge

Norn9 is perhaps one of the less interesting in a recent burst of Visual Novels to hit the Vita, the story seems to take far too long to go anywhere and ends somewhat abruptly. The games main saviour however is the quirky Norn9 Quest mode, which was more interesting than the main games story.- The Vita Lounge

With some fantastic enemies and well thought out puzzling gameplay you will find a very challenging and satisfying game here, but there may well come a point where that challenge transfers into frustration and rage, and outside of the boss encounters the game really doesn't offer much else.- The Vita Lounge

Baboon! is a beautiful, yet infuriating puzzler-cum-platformer that is fun yet fiendishly difficult in places. With a great art style and a catchy soundtrack to boot, Baboon! is a game that will put a smile on your face, and then quickly wipe it away with the challenge it throws at you.- The Vita Lounge

For those of you who have never played a Deception title, The Nightmare Princess is a fantastic entry point for newcomers with tons of content and replay value. But for those who have previously purchased Blood Ties, aside from the new quests, there is nothing here that's worth the full asking price.- The Vita Lounge

Nihilumbra is an interesting concept and a short and sweet title that not only looks great but also uses some of the features that a lot of developers forget the Vita actually has, Nihilumbra is one of the more unique titles on Vita and if you're looking for something different, you should definitely give it a go.- The Vita Lounge

It may not be pretty, it may not be ground-breaking, but what Earth Defense Force 2 lacks in creativity it makes up in the sheer scale of its ridiculous, addictive and fun B-movie style action.- The Vita Lounge

An average platformer that does show its age on the PlayStation Vita. Still fun and humorous in parts, the game is arguably the weakest entry in the Oddworld franchise and only makes the wait for New 'n' Tasty seem that little bit longer.- The Vita Lounge

Superdimension takes a number of steps forward for the series and a few steps back. Overall I really enjoyed it and it's clear a lot of care went into thinking up new and interesting mechanics but sadly an overuse of old content holds the game back from being outstanding.- The Vita Lounge

Whilst it doesn't look like very much, there is something very charming and ultimately quite addictive here. It won't last you forever, and it's incredibly frustrating but if it catches you, you won't be able to stop, at least for a little while.- The Vita Lounge

Samurai Warriors Chronicles 3 is a tedious and repetitive game that will see you mindlessly slash your way through thousands of enemies without a care for the story that it tries to create around the main missions. With a 10-15 hour story mode, you'll be wishing it was over by the end of the first 5 hours.- The Vita Lounge

Dynasty Warriors 8: Empires is a typical hack-and-slash with an empire management side. Newcomers might be slightly disinterested by the repetitive nature of the game, but fans of the genre will find that it packs quite a bit of content and has a lot of replay value.- The Vita Lounge

A Great game that is perfect in short bursts, but a high price tag, and obvious signs of age harm what could otherwise be a fantastic experience. Pocket RPG is Definitely worth picking up if it ends up in a sale.- The Vita Lounge

A game that is definitely stuck in the past. With a crude and crass lead character that definitely does feel out of place in the 21st Century, the saving grace for this title is that the level design and gameplay will keep you hooked.- The Vita Lounge

A standout combat system with deep customization, this game could've really been something special had it not been for the mediocre state of most everything around it.- The Vita Lounge

Hyperdevotion Noire: Goddess Black Heart is not groundbreaking in any aspect - but if you’re into fun, lighthearted RPGs with a certain depth of gameplay then look no further.- The Vita Lounge

Its gameplay focuses on short, fast-paced playthroughs for on-the-go play. If you've been itching for something similar to Spelunky, but also love the Mystery Dungeon series and the JRPG genre, One Way Heroics is a neat combination of all three.- The Vita Lounge

Magical Beat could have been a really fun music puzzler, but with overly powerful A.I. it becomes more of a frustration then a fun experience.- The Vita Lounge
