But it's not on the same level. The 3DS is more or less a toy. It's something that you give to kids to keep them content in the car.
The Vita is a gaming machine for people who consider themselves "gamers." The gaming experience it offers isn't just for people on the go (which I think is the least appealing way to use it) but also for grown up gamers who want deeper.
And I know a lot of adults like the 3DS as well and say it has great games... I just don&...

It looks interesting, but I think I'll give this one a pass. It's a shame. Normally I really like the games that Curve has ported. Stealth Inc and Thomas Was Alone are two of my favorite games on the Vita.

I don't know if its holding them to a lower standard, but you can't argue that Nintendo is given different treatment than its competitors. Nostalgia plays a big factor in that.

I can't wait to get this. It's going to be epic. Now I just need to get Chains of Olympus and Ghost of Sparta on my Vita. Like a sucker, I bought them both on disc. Those UMDs don't fit very well in the Vita card slot.

No, GoW3 was a big let down for me after playing the first two. Graphically it's beautiful, but the story isn't as good.

I love your avatar. When are they going to release the next chapter of Jacob Jones on the Vita?? I want answers!!

I think I'm one of the few people who actually prefer the portable versions of the lego games. Everytime I play one on the PS3, it's almost too chaotic. There are too many studs flying everywhere. The tone it down to just the right level on the handhelds.

Nope, I guess not. Until Nintendo changes their policies and makes purchases tied to an account and not the device, I will never buy anything off the eshop.

I'm sure all the Wii U owners will be racing out to buy this. It just boggles my mind. This is not a game the Nintendo fanbase would probably love but you never know. Hopefully Curve got a big check for this.

I love Warframe. It's my go-to game when I want something quick and fun.

The problem is that most of the complaints can be fixed with a software patch, and in the comments after the review, the developer lists everything that is going to be fixed (which is a lot). This is one of those times when it should have been delayed until they could fix more things.

Misleading title.
Video streaming services are popular so naturally Microsoft is going to chase it. Kind of reminds me of the Zune debacle. "Apple has a successful mp3 player and music store, therefore we need to have an mp3 player and music store." The result was a zune which nobody bought and a music store that people still don't use.
They would probably be better at putting their time and money toward new games instead of trying to compete with Netflix.

Nintendo's scared of E3 ever since they did their Wii U press conferences. Each one was more confusing than the one before it, and they've decided to just stop.

The problem with Microsoft hoping that XB1 exclusives will boost sales is that by the time those games are out, everyone will already have a PS4.
Yes, it's a marathon, not a sprint, but if you let the other guy get too far ahead of you, it becomes next to impossible to catch up.

Nearly a one year delay. This makes it hard for me to believe that the previous director left of his own volition. Missing your release by a month is one thing, but a year? not good.

Would it matter? Take out Kinect and drop the price. Will that have any impact on sales? For the last month you could get the Titanfall bundle for $450 or you could get a PS4 and a game for $460. Not even factoring in the camera, the PS4 was still outselling the XB1.

Exactly.
Have you ever noticed that most sports team have a lot of players lose after they win the championship? It's not doom and gloom, but most get picked off by other teams. Personally, I don't know what's going on at ND and I don't care. Let them make their game and judge them based on the final product.

I'd have to disagree. I think that good games get good scores, bad games get lower scores, and some games will get scores you don't agree with.

But keep in mind that the Vita Lounge scores are an average of four categories. It's something like "look, gameplay, lasting appeal, and execution." So if a game looks amazing but plays horribly, that will push the score a little higher.

Yep, a lot of the games like Crash Bandicoot are available in Europe but not in North America

The game is free with the purchase of a new XB1, and now it's on sale for less than $40?? WTH? It has to be selling well, but definitely less than they were anticipating.
