Thanks for the reply. It comes down to the gamer's tastes in games. I'm a big fan of retro games, so that's where my opinions tend to come from.

2. Guacamelee -- great metroidvania game with loads of style & drop-in/out couch co-op...
Yes, I didn't mention Heavy Rain but should have. My best friend couldn't get into it, but my wife and I did, and we both really enjoyed it. If you're up for something totally different, new and unique, try The Unfinished Swan. I love the visuals and how things can completely come to life with a few well-placed paint blotches. Supposedly PS3 has a good collection of JRPGs, too, but since that's not my thing, I'm not sure what to suggest. For the Vita, everyone who I per...
