These are the most anticipated Vita games in 2014

It is obvious that Sony have changed their approach to the Vita this year, making it a PS4 second screen rather than its own dedicated device. But the fanbase of the Vita is fairly strong (and apparently Vita owners tend to spend much more on games than other mobile devices' owners), and a good stream of good games is awaiting for the second half of 2014.

The article introduces the 10 upcoming 2014 Vita games (in EU/US) that people are waiting for the most today.

Neptunia Rebirth is a remake not a port, and I think the image is from bullet girls and not Shinovi versus but not sure

beakeroo13587d ago

Doesn't look like a Shinovi pic because of the guns but it has the shinovi watermark like it was taken in game from the Vita.

TongkatAli3587d ago (Edited 3587d ago )

The Vita has too many games coming out.

sanosukegtr1233587d ago

And some people say the vita doesn't have games.

Inception3587d ago

Yeah that still baffle me, especially in this day & age when more than half of earth population had the internet in their palm.

Spotie3587d ago

They know there's plenty to play.

They just have some random need to troll.

Protagonist3587d ago

@sanosukegtr123

Plenty of delusional users on this site that will keep saying that, just to discredit the PS Vita.

3-4-53587d ago (Edited 3587d ago )

Vita has games, but most of those only appeal to like 50,000-100,000 gamers.

The variety isn't really there. There is variety amongst the niche titles but they are all still niche and only appeal to so many people.

I love my Vita, but I've been playing my PSP more lately because there are more games that appeal to me for it that I still need to play or beat.

* Playing Legend of Heroes: Tear of Vermillion last night and I realized there aren't any games like this for Vita.

Yea most said it was mediocre or whatever but I'm loving this game. Good music, towns, good battles system, no weird characters, actually interesting people, solid story..ect...

* WHERE ARE THESE GAMES ^ ???

All the games that seem to have fun gameplay for some reason you HAVE to play as a female, with not many clothes on.

That isn't original anymore, it's become Cliche and generic.

What used to be "generic" is now almost extinct, and what once was original is flooding the market with watered down crap.

* Definitely looking forward to Disgaea 4 & Tales of Hearts though. Maybe even freedom wars but even that looks kind of bland.

"Playing Legend of Heroes: Tear of Vermillion last night and I realized there aren't any games like this for Vita"

There's a lot of Legend of Heroes / Eiyuu Densetsu games for vita.

If you understand japanese, i suggest to get:

- Legend of Heroes: The Trail of Zero / Zero no Kiseki and Legend of Heroes: The Trail of Blue / Ao no Kiseki.
http://legendofheroes.wikia...

- Legend of Heroes: The Trail of Flash / Sen no Kiseki I & II
http://legendofheroes.wikia...

My friends who can speak japanese already play it and according to them those games are superior to Tear of Vermilion.

But if you don't understand japanese, you can buy Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky 1st chapter on PSN and play it on your vita. After that, you can wait just like me and the rest of Legend of Heroes fans for Xseed to release 2nd chapter later this year.

nope1113587d ago (Edited 3587d ago )

Disgaea 4: A Promise Revisited
Sword Art Online: Hollow Fragment
Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth 1
Freedom Wars
Oreshika: Tainted Bloodlines
Taes of Hearts R
Senran Kagura Shinovi Versus
Skullgirls Encore
Hyper Light Drfter
Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number

I'm gona be broke this year....

sanosukegtr1233587d ago

I'm already getting Senran Kagura Shinovi from japan and thinking of getting Freedom Wars.

JohnApocalypse3587d ago

Freedom Wars is supposed to be the big one for the Vita this year. What reception has it gotten in Japan?

Tidybrutes3587d ago

Overall positive however some saying its too hard or unbalanced.

Good chance it will be patched by the time it releases in the West.

tubers3587d ago

Lowest scoring in PSN and Amazon compared to SS, Toukiden.

Poor story, few content, unbalanced weaponry, questionable AIs and frustratingly random upgrade system.

Some felt duped into getting a TPS game instead of a more traditional "hunting" game.

http://www.gamefaqs.com/boa...

http://www.neogaf.com/forum...

Hopefully ironed out a bit on NA/EU release and with new free content.

Inception3587d ago (Edited 3587d ago )

No love for Tales of Hearts R and Oreshika? Still a good list though.

For me:

- Freedom Wars
- Oreshika
- Akiba's Trip
- Danganronpa 2
- Tales of Hearts R
- Senran Kagura: Shinovi Versus
- Murasaki Baby
- Hotaru no Nikki
- Grim Fandango
- Legend of Heroes: TitS 2nd chapter
- The Wolf Among Us + The Walking Dead season 2
- Hotline Miami 2

13 vita games for the rest of 2014 are still very good for me. I hope my wallet still breathing though >.<

nodim3587d ago

Yeah, I'm still buffled how in the world they managed to miss Oreshika.

Protagonist3587d ago

Count me in for Freedom Wars and Oreshika.

tiffac0083587d ago

Is Oreshika slated for release this year in NA or EU?

Yeah that list missed Tales of Hearts R ^^

Inception3587d ago

No release date, but there's a big possibility it will be release this year for NA and EU

F*** AI

"Hey Copilot, what's a good meme to prove I dislike AI".... https://giphy.com/clips/sou...

Einhander19724d ago

Two trillion dollar company that just can't wait to put as many people possible out of work as fast as possible.

It feels like every single thing they do is making gaming worse and destroying the industry.

....you know it takes people to program the AI.... right? It isnt like it is sentient. We haven't reach skynet level of situation or anywhere close to the matrix just yet.

That's next Thursday.

Einhander19723d ago (Edited 3d ago )

It takes a people to program the AI then that AI is used for who knows how many games eliminating countless jobs which only grows as AI is used for more and more game creation functions.

What you're saying is so ridiculously short sighted and truly larking any kind of understanding and foresight.

Why all the hate? Im actually excited about this! Always wanted this kind of immersion, and an AI companion with me all the time helping me out knowing the status of my skills/inventory/progress and giving me tips on the best approach or how to craft something specific is game changing for the industry.

Hate all you want about AI, but this is just the start and I can see the potential already. You wont be complaining in the next 5-10 years about this, but rather complain if a game hasn’t implemented it.

MrDead3d ago

Yes we can't wait for the work of others to be used without the need to pay them so that MS can profit even more from the people they fire.

I_am_Batman3d ago (Edited 3d ago )

There is no chance I'd ever use something like this, especially if it's not part of the core game design, but a layer on top of it. It's way too much handholding. Many games already feel like busy work, because they don't let the player figure things out on their own. Having a real-time interactive guide defeats the purpose of playing the game in the first place in my opinion.

If this were to become the standard like you predict, we'll see more and more video games get away with bad design, because people will just be used to ask for help from the AI companion anyway.

Number1TailzFan3d ago

Well Nintendo don't need this with some of their games these days, with invincible characters, items, easy bosses etc.. they do the hand holding built in

helicoptergirl3d ago

Takes "hand holding" in games to a whole new level.

BlackDoomAx2d ago

Because human nature xD Almost every new technology had these kind of comments.

1 major advantage to this will be launching it straight from SteamVR. You have to make a custom shortcut to get it working right now in VR.

UltimateOwnage6d ago

This is good news. It will be much easier to get it installed on my devices without using workarounds.
