PixlBit

I'm still excited that we can have a real headline that contains both "coming" and "Seaman".

I'm totally surprised... No, seriously, I can't believe it...

I get why this came with the first edition bundle, but it seems like something that should've been packaged with all the Vitas for free. If they really wanted to make that bundle attractive to more folks, they would've thrown Uncharted in there.

I feel absolutely no sympathy for publishers who aren't turning a big enough profit and using the online pass to dissuade used game purchases. Used sales are a part of their industry - like it or not. The rules of capitalism dictate that you need to change your business plan if you aren't able to turn a profit. The online pass is certainly a means of doing this, but it's not going to be a lasting solution.

If they want to turn a profit, they need to start changing budgets. Just like Jesse wrote in his editorial, the AAA model is not a lasting one. We need properly priced games, we need smaller budgets and smaller scoped games, we need more business savvy publishers who want to shift and change along with the market.

I refuse to buy games with online passes. They hurt consumer rights and they harm the historical integrity of games. How will future generations play the Catwoman missions in Batman when the game is no longer in print? The answer is, they won't. Thanks online passes!

After hearing that, now I want Vortex! Time to go see if someone has it for sale...

Nice review, Vic - my excitement for the system is steadily increasing. Wednesday can't come soon enough!

Side Note - Love the tiny little Vita boxes, hate the MIA manuals.

Please let me play exclusively as Desmond in awesome modern cityscapes, Ubisoft.

No.

This game looks great. If the Vita weren't launching, I'd be all over this.

This marks my 200th review for PixlBit. Phew, can't believe I've written that many here already!
