Geek Revolt: Gravity Daze Review "Forget The PS3 Spin-Offs, We Need More Games Like This"

GR's DeShaun Zollicoffer writes:

The PS Vita has a great launch line-up, but most of the first party titles are just spin-offs (or ports) of PS3 games. Now, there’s nothing wrong with this, but the PS Vita deserves a unique game that truly makes the system worth owning. Well, this is where Gravity Daze comes in.

always thought this game looked interesting, back when the game was called "project gravity". shame i wont be getting a PSV anytime soon. not until the 2nd gen one... not a huge fan of it's form factor and lack of actual triggers.

Snookies124482d ago

I've heard amazing things about this game, and was excited from the moment I saw the first bit of news on the game. This should be the system seller for a lot of people, I mean honestly... How can you NOT want to play Gravity Daze? It's just too much fun to mess with gravity... If you haven't tried it, play the demo! o_o

NovusTerminus4482d ago

IS the demo on the Vita store?

I was going to get this game with Shinobido 2 on Wednesday but it got delayed or the release date was not very clear, EITHER way, I still plan of getting it.

And the only demo they have on the Vita display here is Little Deviants.

Snookies124482d ago (Edited 4482d ago )

Ah that's true, it's only on the Korean and Japanese PS stores. D:

Yeah though, the game's release date (in North America) is set sometime after April I think... I'm not sure if they've given a confirmed release date outside of Japan though.

I played the demo for this game. I guess the demo wasn't very representative of the final product, because it didn't seem like a 10/10 from the demo. Definitely good news, though. I hope to see more reviews like this one.

Mikhail4482d ago

When I saw its trailer, it was love at first sight for me.

Surfaced4482d ago

Exactly. From the time we first saw the NGP, the 10 seconds we saw of Gravity Daze told everything. It was by far the most interesting 1st party game in the works, yet SCEA/SCEE have always downplayed it, like they aren't confident of its commercial viability in the West. If you go to Vita Hill, they have demos for every 1st party Vita game EXCEPT Gravity Rush. Huge mistake on their part.

Marceles4482d ago (Edited 4482d ago )

This was the system seller for me and thought it would be a launch title in the US :(. I hope it comes out before May, I've wanted this game since it was first announced. A 10/10 without even knowing the story is pretty amazing lol

Gravity Rush deserves it.

MasterCornholio4265d ago

What an innovative new ip.

Its sad that the game didn't sell too well.

:(

Acquiescence4265d ago

Y'know, considering it's a Vita game and all.

Studio-YaMi4265d ago

I bought my copy of the game just 4 days ago and I'm loving every moment of it :D !

r214265d ago

EleDive? Neat, I presume this wont come out internationally. And its good to see Gravity Rush not only get TGS2012 GOTY but also game designers :D One of this gen's(next gen?) greatest gems :)

Gravity rush is under appreciated in the west.. I think the game rocks.. Its not perfect cuz it needs more depth but it was a great vita launch window title.. If a sequel gets made, i will definitely buy it day 1, especially if they get more dev time & resources to build it.. This is one game i will have for the rest of my vitas life

Gravity Rush Review - Brutal Gamer

Brutal Gamer writes:

Sony Japan’s Gravity Daze finally hits these shores under the guise of Gravity Rush and Vita owners throughout the land issue forth a resounding “Hazzah!” for they finally have something to play since launch.

Snide swipe as the recent Vita software wasteland aside Vita owners should be excited for this new title. It offers up some truly unique elements and a large dollop of uniquely Japanese game play.

This game deserves nothing lower than a 9/10.

GuruStarr784343d ago

agreed.... i can see maybe an 8 here or there... but nothing below that.... its the best Vita game so far and one of my all time favorite games ever..

I hope we see a sequel..

It was really fun getting the platinum trophy, all I need now is the spy pack and I'll have 100%..

Even if you're not really into trophys, going for them in Gravity Rush makes the game a lot more fun!

SpinalRemains1384343d ago

Really? I only just started playing it, but I don't see why you have it that high. I suppose I'll have to keep playing to find out.

So far I find the comic scenes to be boring and too Japanese for my liking. Everything is so melodramatic. I'll trust you guys though and keep going before final judgement of course.

dafegamer4343d ago (Edited 4343d ago )

@SpinalRemains
comic scenes too japanese? I hope we are playing the same game cause the game does have a high european feeling.
The japanese only translate in the artstyle

SpinalRemains1384342d ago

You think so? All the characters say silly things just like they do in any Final Fantasy game. I find no European or western feel to it at all

dafegamer4338d ago

lol thats not even japanese their talking in this game that a made up language. Gibberish just like in Zelda games.
Also how can this feel japanese. The cutscenes doesnt implent soimething that has a japanese feel
As of the artstyle yes it has some japanese influence in art,but you can say that to all japanese made games including mario,final fantasy,
zelda, and so on

one2thr4343d ago

I can finally pick this game up this thursday <(^_^)>...
And after playing the demo about 16 times, i can say its more of an European city scape artstyle, and I also believe that the language within the Gravity Rush (not daze) is actually a made up language and not Japanese... From what I understood from the demo, and the tilting comic 3D scenes are awesome as well... Come on thursday!!
