This game looks........weird.

Like what happens when you mix the Twilight Realm with the world of Puella Magi Madoka Magica.

But it still looks freaking awesome!

I like how "Working title" looks like it's meant to be a part of the game's title in that splash image.

Anyways, the gravity-manipulation looks like it could be used to awesome effect. Also, looking at the civilians present, to incredibly cruel effect.

Well, I guess my envy aimed at PSV owners is quite a bit earlier then expected. Maybe I'll actually get one to complement my 3DS.

Then again, I've had the same feelings towards many games on the PSP, and I was still sure that that one would be used more often as a paperweight then a console. So yeah, I'll just sit it out for a while.

Here's some new concept art.

Welp, I now have a reason to pick up the PS Vita.

Reminds me of Bayonetta a little bit. Especially the wind boss. Just the gameplay, not the character designs.

I love the way the girl goes all limp when she flies through the air.

Not to mention the main character looks really Beautiful.

Get, the rag dolling looks incredibly awkward, but beyond that, I'd play it.

Some more game footage

More screenshots.

This looks like fun.

I think so too. Too Bad I don't have a PS Vita yet.

Uh...I don't think the Vita has even been released yet.

Will the Vita have backward compatibility? If so, I'm SO buying it.

Not with UMD's.

New video showing off some of the abilities.

And apparently the name is now called Gravity Rush.

Its always a very good sign when one of the worst parts of a game is that it makes everything else look bad by comparrison.

Though I have to wonder why they stopped themselves from giving a 10. They didn't have a single negative thing to say about it apart from "this is the kind of game that could give you motion sickness". And its not like they can claim the "it has to be innovative" thing. It doesn't lack longevity, the story and characters are great, the gameplay is amazing - whats the thing preventing a perfect score?

Maybe it just wasn't good enough. Sometimes that happens, everything on display is good but it's not great.

probably minor issue like texture pop out or main story being short

I know a lot of the reviews praise it, but those that give it high scores seem to gloss over what the lower-score reviews talk about: poor combat, incoherent story, lack of variety in missions, rather empty world, etc. I'm not just talking about professional reviews either, I'm talking blog posts and friend's impressions and stuff.
