Yes, this frustrates us, too. We've covered plenty of Vita games over the years and whenever one gets ported to Switch, we just add a note on the review saying that it's also available on Switch. Reviewing the games again is absurd, especially considering the fact that they're usually much more expensive on Switch and are just direct ports or stripped down versions of previously released games. They're very rarely better versions.

Oh, I see what you mean. A non-VR game. That would be very cool!

Not at all. It looks awesome and far from a fish bowl.

VR is crucial to gameplay, too. You basically need to move your head around constantly to search for things.

I'm not sure what you mean by "I also wish they’d make a full Astro Bot game for PS4."

This is a full Astro Bot game for PS4... Unless I'm missing something... :S

Yeah, it's a small gripe. We only mentioned it because there was multiplayer in the Robots Rescue Playroom VR mini-game.

Indeed. It's the best experience that VR has to offer! :D

@awdevoftw: Yeah, I used to call them space shooters back in the day.

That's a bit dramatic for a comment on an article about fun indie games that just happen to be for a specific console...

I'd like to challenge you on that! ;)

Shooter can refer to run and gun shooters, static shooters, etc. Shoot 'em up (or shmup for short) usually refers to the very specific sub-genre of automatically scrolling shooters.

What if they're big juicy man boobs?

Thanks, letsa_go! That means a lot. :D

Railway Empire is great fun and works surprisingly well on console. It's always great to see developers port games from PC in an effective way.

Do you mean Folklore? If so, we included that in our "Top 10 PlayStation 3 Exclusives That Deserve Sequels" list earlier this year: https://videochums.com/top1...

Great game! :D

Haha, no prob! We avoid annoyances like multi-page articles so I'm glad you appreciate it.

A Way Out is phenomenal. A must-have for co-op fans. :D

I'd say definitely check it out! Not sure what's in the limited edition but the game itself is for sure worth it.

Reviews on our site have been plagiarized more times than I can count. It's far more common than this IGN fiasco would lead you to believe.

Original content is great and people who plagiarize should be ashamed of themselves.

Yeah, we mention that in the article. It's a special episode of the series and is not an indie.

Yes, it is quite pricey.

I understand. However, we'll have to agree to disagree about the quality of the writing. I found it to be an informative opinion piece that highlighted a lot of aspects of Vampyr that the author found to be less than ideal. Like I said earlier, 2 points could have been elaborated upon a bit more but that does not make the piece any less valid. Sure, some readers (like yourself) may extrapolate from that and assume things but it's much more constructive to ask questions than it is to d...

"Opinion piece or Review, it doesn't matter."

It absolutely does. If a reviewer doesn't fully understand a game and reviews it anyway then that's irresponsible. If they merely offer their opinion while also saying things like "If you enjoy Vampyr and feel up to explaining why you like it, please leave a comment below. I'd love to hear from a fresh perspective." then that is 100% fine. He's obviously open to hearing from people who lov...
