ok I've been saving up but lately I've had some hesitance. Someone on Giant Bomb told me that Assassin's Creed Liberation has AR minigames where you're required to hold it up to a lightbulb. That was kind the game I was looking forward to. (dunno why)
It's just one game, not a deal breaker right? But see here's the thing, I already knew I despised read touchpad and I knew that Killzone Mercenary has touch gesture shenanigans. (so does Uncharted GA for that matter) And LBP uses rear touchpad not that I'd get that game anyway after playing the PSP LBP. So the issue here is not one game but the fact that I'm seeing sort of an epidemic here regarding full retail Vita titles. And add to that my previous concerns of the Vita's buttons being too small, and the fact that pressing X means you nudge the stick because they are placed so closely together, and the fact that, since Vita has two sticks, all game devs will just straight port FPS games onto it even though it will be much harder to be accurate on a Vita. Even in Gravity Rush demo it was fiddly trying to center on an enemy.
So now I'm sort of in indecision. It doesn't help I'm sort of in an existential crisis, I don't know why I exist much less why I play games, and AC Liberation just adds to that, because it's like the game devs are just tripping over themselves running in circles and I'm just someone merely trying to salvage something out of all the madness. Why do I do this exactly?
In any case my new to-get game instead of AC Liberation is Sonic Racing Transformed. Right on for listing it in the OP, I just hope it doesn't disappoint.
Also, weirder still, I was wondering if I should get a 2DS after all. It makes no sense. Vita used to be the good guy and 3DS the bad guy but at the moment neither particularly make that much more sense to me than the other. All I know is that 2DS is cheaper than Vita, and makes me ashamed to be tempted for that reason, since it is why Nintendo always wins.
