Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD Remaster (Trailer)
Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD is finally here...in Japan. Need I say more?
For those concerned, an English Vita version is coming, but details are still very sparse.
Coming as a surprised to absolutely no one, this month's winner is Tearaway!
For the unedumacted, Tearaway is a charming platformer developed by Media Molecule, the minds behind LittleBigPlanet. You join a little papery messenger, Iota or Atoi, on their epic journey throughout the land to delivery a message to none other than you!
Having played Tearaway myself and loving every second of it, I give it my wholehearted recommendation. It has tight platforming and a truly whimsical and charming story that I haven't seen in many modern AAA games. The unique visual style and silky smooth frame rate also make it quite the technical achievement for the Vita.
Check out the Tearaway OT for more information!
