Something about this review reminds me of the 2008-2010 CGR era. Mark's voice has that old school vibe, and like the older ones he isn't appearing on the camera. Makes me feel nostalgic :)
I have this for the ps3 and it's great. While it is a bit complex, it's also fairly simple to pick up and play. My 7 year old daughter, who never played a shooter before this, just loves it.
Far Cry Instincts Predator for the 360 please. I would send you a copy, but as im from NewZealand, our postal system requires some back to the future levels of time travel to get parcels to arrive this millenium.
Darius >> This I have both, both are great, DB:CS is better though. If you have a Japan account (I live in there) get G Darius too, 617 yen only, worth alongside CS
Bought this game on a whim. Love shoot em ups. What a great game. Glad I came back. Was wondering why the levels were closed. Text is too small on vita. Can't wait to play on ps3.
This looks great, too bad I don't have a vita. Could get it on Ps3 though. Casuals over the years have made this genre obsolete via reviews and other means, especially during the 5th generation.
It looks good but I can't play shoot 'em ups with a thumbstick or d-pad. I just can't. Too slow, too inaccurate. Give me an arcade joystick or at least a digital joystick like the quickshot variety.
I haven't used one in 25 or so years, from memory, I hated them. Awkward to hold, not easy to make lots and constant small adjustments. They were ok for less "delicate' games, such as those on the 8-bit consoles, but as soon as you entered 16-bit games, nah. At least not for me. If you liked it, power to you.
You are bizarre, but that's fine. :) I had various quickshot type joysticks for my ST and Amiga but my favorite was an arcade style joystick, which now days they call them fight sticks for some reason. Also it was the original right handed ones with the stick on the right side as it was originally before the great arcade conspiracy.
I don't like Blood Money enough and I have played it. By enough I mean it is not my favorite game and by I have played it I mean I have played it with a variety of joysticks including the 2600.
The game looks a bit dull as far as horizontal 2D shoot 'em ups go, honestly. Slow pace, too many enemies that take too many hits to go down and enemy projectiles that travel at slow, modern bullet hell velocity, without the density or intricacy that typical bullet hells display.
The Shadow Man well it's not dead but it's not alive either it's basically a zombie, I own 3 and a pstv, and I still buy games for it and it also does not hurt that I love many ps1 and psp games. Also I'm not really into JRPGs but I still have something to play with a nice backlog I even purchase the vita copy over my PS4 version of games. It could of had way better releases though.

Been waiting a long time for Mark to review this!
I always had a lot of fun playing this game, and the soundtrack is excellent.
The Killzone servers for the Vita are still up, and people are still playing the online multiplayer. It's an amazing system.

Thanks for the coverage!
Only for the music, it's worth It! Rafael Dyll did those AWESOME tracks!
Love these types of games 👍🏾
I love your review! You're always so passionate and positive, keep up the good work!
This game is a gem for sure. The music and gameplay are just perfect for the Vita. Would be mice.if ported to the switch. Im sure it would sell a lot.
I just sold my physical copy. Now I regret it.
Review DARIUSBURST CHRONICLE SAVIOURS! That One Is Just As Awesome!
ReverseNAM OMG YES!! ^.=.^
The best liquid laser is of course the "Men's Beam" from Cho Aniki ;)
that intro music always gets me in the mood for games
Great game. I have the first and second Soldner games on my PS3.
That's a sweet PS Vita.
Love the color.
Far Cry Instincts Predator for the 360 please. I would send you a copy, but as im from NewZealand, our postal system requires some back to the future levels of time travel to get parcels to arrive this millenium.
EmoWookie HOLY JESUS that's a really rare game! I love classic farcry! Good times with friends!
Raiden V, coming out soon, Mark! OCTOBER 5TH! Keep your eyes peeled for it!
I love my ps vita! Glad to see you cover some vita games!
how does this compare to 'DARIUSBURST Chronicle Saviours'?
Darius >> This
I have both, both are great, DB:CS is better though.
If you have a Japan account (I live in there) get G Darius too, 617 yen only, worth alongside CS

Lord carnage become a voice actor you could be the next Morgan freeman
Does the PSVita have a touchscreen?
Yes.
They upscaled this for PS4 for just $10!!!
Check it out!
I just want homebrew titles. I can imagine its a pain to program for this thing. Even tho I want one lol
I'm surprised you didn't mention the fact that you're collecting the rings from Sonic, implying that it must be Sonic flying the ship.
I need to get this on my neon orange PS Vita 😎😅
Yep, that's a Euroshmup if I've ever seen one. Also... Dammit Mark, would you just review Dariusburst Chronicle Saviours already?!
Wow pretty cool for the Vita.
This looks nice.
More Vita reviews pls.
The game is a PS3 game.
Bought and played it years ago on my PS3 and after I got my Vita I could download it for free.
PSN is giving this and Soldner X2 Last Chapter for free!
What's a ps tv?
A cheap way to play vita games.
wow, a vita game!!!
Söldner X was awesome game. Söldner X2 was not that good. Awesome soundtracks though!
This looks great, too bad I don't have a vita. Could get it on Ps3 though. Casuals over the years have made this genre obsolete via reviews and other means, especially during the 5th generation.
Retro Soul Come on over to the shmups forum and meet some people whom still very much love this genre. I'm there, I go by ProcoTaito.
It's on PS4 now.
Vita is very popular in Japan. Here mobile gaming on smartphones has taken over. Only children have Game Boys and Vitas these days.
Uh... **is twenty-six years old and just got Patapon 3 downloaded on her Vita**
oh noes! you failed that challenge! well, please get that challenge for me. sicerely - a fan.
Sadly we will likely never see a Soldner X 3 because sales of the first 2 were so poor.
It looks good but I can't play shoot 'em ups with a thumbstick or d-pad. I just can't. Too slow, too inaccurate.

First
Looks very generic and boring.
Isn't vita already dead ?
The Shadow Man I still play PSP.
The Shadow Man well it's not dead but it's not alive either it's basically a zombie, I own 3 and a pstv, and I still buy games for it and it also does not hurt that I love many ps1 and psp games.

Undertale comes out for it this week.
people laughed at the DS ,but the DS line has always beaten playstation mobile devices
