From PSLS:
"Some may say that the Vita isn't getting any games, which may be true from the perspective of the traditional American gamer that is looking for the next great AAA game from Sony themselves. Behind the curtain however, the Vita is being inundated with release after release of JRPG localizations that may elude most gamers' awareness. They range from horrible to something a little closer to perfect. Perhaps the most agonizing trend is the lack of any real change or update in the genre at all. Mind Zero (stylized MIND≒0) actually manages to break free from a couple JRPG tropes, while full embracing a few others and exuding mediocrity the whole way."
The PlayStation Vita has become a haven for RPGs, but there is one particular type that has really made itself at home on the system. People who love first-person dungeon-crawlers with turn-based battles and often customizable parties can find tons on the system. Developers like Experience and Compile Heart have taken to the system. This means people who enjoy level grinding and customizing characters have plenty of options to choose from when looking for a new game to play.
Review of the PS Vita exclusive Mind Zero by Aksys Games
Gary Hartley Writes: The problem with aping someone else’s formula of success is that you’re already courting obsoleteness. Is it better than its source material? Does it do enough differently to justify its existence? Mind Zero is always going to struggle against direct comparisons, because the answer to both questions is no. Not really. It’s too keen on taking shortcuts; on being a shallower experience. There are twelve chapters to play through, and I saw my first case of palette-swapped enemies as early as stage three. Progression is based on power levelling, in exploring non-randomised dungeons that often lose their lustre long before completion, and on grinding levels and skill cards to stand a chance against boss fights that range between insultingly easy and genuinely challenging. Even then, the challenge to most bosses is in their overly-burdened health bars which make these fights gruelling wars of attrition.
Super disappointing.
I find the dungeon crawling decent so far.
Im loving this game
I really like the game. For me it's a solid 7/10!
im loving this game also since i saved 13 bux of retail to get digital plus 5 dollar free coupon form sony i got game pratically half off.
its good 7.5 for me but at 40 bux i would rated it 6 most cuz i felt cheated but its good decent long game in persona vibe.
