With its 90s-inspired aesthetics, roguelike mechanics, and turn-based twist on the brick breaker formula, the game offers strategic depth, satisfying controls, and fun enemy design, but suffers from repetitive scenarios, an overreliance on luck, and some lack of balance between mechanics and randomness.- Vandal

Knights and Bikes is a charming adventure, particularly enjoyable in coop. We’ve had a good time with it, but there isn’t much depth, challenge or innovation so, at the end of the day, you’ll want to play it for its charm.- Vandal

Criterion's seal of quality. They've managed to squeeze the console version on Sony's handheld, just adapting the graphics to the new hardware. It doesn't look as good as the PS3 or 360 version, but it's still the same experience, and one the best titles you'll see on PSVita in a while. Absolutely recommended for fans of driving games.- Vandal

Pepper Grinder delivers a fluid and enjoyable 2D platforming experience with its unique drilling mechanic, although it lacks cohesion and confidence in its main gameplay mechanic. The game's constant introduction of new ideas sometimes overshadows its core mechanic, resulting in a somewhat disjointed experience. Despite this, it offers fun and challenging gameplay with a charming visual and sound design.- Vandal

Resident Evil 7 and Village deliver a surprisingly solid experience on Switch 2, showcasing the RE Engine's impressive adaptation to the hybrid console. Resident Evil 7 runs almost flawlessly, presenting a largely uncompromised version; however, Village frequently struggles with unstable framerates in open areas and displays visual compromises, yet its confined sections perform fantastically well.- Vandal

KarmaZoo" is an original cooperative game with well-executed creative ideas, expressive and enjoyable gameplay in both modes, impressive audiovisuals, particularly the narrator (in English), but it suffers from somewhat repetitive design and simple challenges.

It is the same Wipeout formula we have enjoyed before both on the PS3 and the PSP, but with outstanding graphics and a much better control thanks to the use of the dual analog sticks. The motion sensor use is an extra mode that is not that good, but the use of the touch screen is perfect. It might not be the best Wipeout in the series, but is one of the best titles in the launch of PSVita.- Vandal

Dead Rising 2: Case 0 is remarkable for being a downloadable sample of a game coming to retail in a month. It is a fresh concept, as it is not a demo, but it seems its objective is just to show what Dead Rising 2 is going to offer. The story closes in a reasonably good way, although it does so in order to be linked with the story of the main game, which of course may not be liked by part of the public.- Vandal
