PushSquare: "Laughing Jackal's last Playstation Mini release, Cubixx, is still one of the most stylish games on the store, but their upcoming title Vibes seems ready to take that crown. The gameplay appears to riff of the likes of Guitar Hero, Rock Band Unplugged and Amplitude, having you mash the Playstation's face buttons to various rythmns."
Kombo: At first glance, the PlayStation mini Vibes appears to be yet another music game akin to Guitar Hero or Rock Band. You pick out songs and tap on the displayed buttons at the right time to keep the music going.
PSN Stores: "Vibes has a play-list of 13 tunes. They’re most likely not from artists you will recognize, but for only 13 songs, they are a real variety and I enjoyed the majority of them. “Hello” by Fake Elegance was probably my favorite track. Yeah, euro-pop, don’t judge. Each song has 3 difficulty levels a la DDR. You start out with a couple songs unlocked on easy and you’re free to go from there. As you get more high scores and clear more difficulties you unlock new songs and difficulties. I found some of the higher difficulties harder, (duh) but also found that sometimes the beats didn’t always match up with the notes I had to play. This would take out my combo and I would get a bit flustered. This is the only problem I had with this game. If you’ve got the music in your bones, pick this one up for sure… and here’s hoping for a couple installments of this game, with some tweaking this could be a must have."
They should add Move support to this game, since it's design goes well with this game's title. I guess it might require two Moves, though.
PushSquare: "Vibes is a competent rythmn game with a great visual style and a pretty varied track-listing. It’s unlikely to hold your attention for longer than five minutes at a time, but afterall, this is what PlayStation Minis were designed for."
Looks more like a variation of Gitaroo Man, which is a very good thing.
If it plays my MP3's on my PSP and does so with accurate button timing, I'll definitely get this!
