Looks pretty nice. Day 1.

Eurogamer - 9/10

Did the Vita just get the first essential title of 2014 or something?!

It's a Vita title AND an indie title. Do you think people will recognize it?

 

[Gusto]

So you've played it? What would you rate it?

Nope, just never seen so many people lose their sh*t over a twitch game. Trust me, I want a tony hawk, skate or heck even a thrasher game on my Vita but this seems like a game that can be found on iOS for $1.

 

[jon bones]

This game IMO is NOT worth $10+. This game is such a pocket game. This game could easily be put on the APP store instead of the VITA. However I do find it interesting.

ok mr "xBuTcHeRx" i have to ask - have you played it? how would it even control on a touch screen?

 

[CaptainTiptop]

Day one. Bring back skateboard games!

This game IMO is NOT worth $10+. This game is such a pocket game. This game could easily be put on the APP store instead of the VITA. However I do find it interesting.

This game would control like fucking dog shit on iOS/Android, though.

 

[Acquiescence]

Don't sound so surprised!

I am surprised. This was very much under the radar, but I'm glad the game is getting the first superlative reviews of the year (unless I've forgotten something).

I don't need any other reason to buy but it's always good to read such glowing reviews for an upstart. Imagine if Sony gets these guys to make some PS4 indie games.

The PS4 has enough support for crying out loud! Let the Vita get all the exclusive love it can get.

 

[Gusto]

I love it too since it looks amazing.

Killzone looks amazing, this looks like a fun time killer. Maybe we're looking at different parts of the game.

 

[SmokyDave]

I love how people are flipping out at this twitch app and how they're posting all these no name sites that are scoring it high.

You seem to be railing against this game on principle, but I don't understand what principle.

You might want to try playing it. Maybe there's a reason so many people are praising it.

No, I don't think you've forgotten anything. Vita comin' out of the gate strong. I've been keeping an eye on the gameplay vids and thought it looked great, but honestly I'm surprised at how well it's reviewing too.

Yeah, you're looking at the graphics and everyone else seems to be hung up on how it plays and how much fun it is. What a bunch of weirdoes.

 

[DBT85]

This might just be what I need until Velocity 2X comes out.

Eurogamer - 9/10

Did the Vita just get the first essential title of 2014 or something?!

No. That would be Nidhogg.

The game looks really nice, though. Hopefully it'll scratch that Skate itch.

 

[POWERSPHERE]

Doesn't seem too likely at the moment per this comment from one of the devs:

Bummer, thanks.

I always hope games like this hit Wii U as it's the perfect platform for such things with offscreen play, but that window is closing pretty quickly.

It breaks my heart every year that Skate 4 isn't announced… Obviously i'm a mental case.

 

[Triggerhappytel]

Great stuff; been looking forward to this for ages and for £6 odd I'll definitely be buying it tomorrow.

 

[Dachande]

Yep, yep, yep, definitely getting this. Thank you, delicious 64GB card...

[dgenx]

I dont care about skating, would I have fun?

 

[Sendou]

I dont care about skating, would I have fun?

I don't like killing or skating but still Hotline Miami 2 and this are my two most anticipated indie games at the moment.

 

[Crimson Clown]

I dont care about skating, would I have fun?

Probably. You don't need to memorise specific tricks or have any knowledge of skating in general really to have fun with it.

 

[AEREC]

No. That would be Nidhogg.

The game looks really nice, though. Hopefully it'll scratch that Skate itch.

Nidhogg's on Vita?

 

[SmokyDave]

Nidhogg's on Vita?

Oh, man. If only.

Still, never say never.

 

[I Wanna Be The Guy]

I'm pretty much done with Runner 2 so since this is getting a Plus discount at launch I think I'll get this tomorrow. More Vita goodness.

 

[PapaJustify]

Shahid did not promise too much, it looks like!

 

[Corto]

Nidhogg's on Vita?

I would definitely get that dick!

 

[VanWinkle]

Wow, these reviews are crazy good. Even better than I expected.

 

[Mdk7]

FUCK YOU Gaf, do not make me spend money again! ;___;
I already bought 2 games this month (The Banner Saga and Fire Emblem Awakening)...
PLEASE do not hype me!

 

[Zia]

Nidhogg's on Vita?

No.

 

[MrCow]

i wanna buy this but i don't have a credit card, was it possible to buy content on the vita via paypal?

 

[ricen-beans]

Bummer, thanks.

I think it's time for you to join VitaGaf....

So many good games and remote play on ps4 is awesome!

 

[Hasney]

i wanna buy this but i don't have a credit card, was it possible to buy content on the vita via paypal?

Yup, you can add funds via PayPal. They even had a US promotion a little while back for using PayPal.

 

[krpiper]

i wanna buy this but i don't have a credit card, was it possible to buy content on the vita via paypal?

You can link your PSN account to your paypal account

 

[darkside31337]

This game came out of nowhere.

Definitely in today, nice that its part of the PLAY promotion.

Eurogamer - 9/10

Did the Vita just get the first essential title of 2014 or something?!

No one's heard of these sites. They're just inflating their review scores to get more press codes.

 

[Shinriji]

PSNSTORES - 4.5/5

 

[Nymphae]

Shit, looks like I know how I'm spending the PSN gift card I have! Game looks pretty cool.

 

[Tizoc]

ahhh. gotcha. just gonna take some unplayed games to gamestop for a $20 network card.

FYI not all games on US PSN are on Amazon.com @_@

 

[Kikarian]

Game looks pretty fun and has good review scores.

Will buy.

 

[Ohnonono]

I will buy this.

[krpiper]

I have been waiting on this for ages, but my hype level is officially max now!

Please dont make us wait Grace Chen

 

[Celegus]

Never even heard of this.. good reviews, though I'm not sure it's a game for me. I'll have to look more into it, but it's always great to see more unique awesome indie games!

 

[Slixshot]

I'm in.

 

[Nymphae]

I have seriously not been this excited to play a game in a long time, I can't wait to get home and play this tonight!

Scratches a few of my itches: I love skateboarding games (god I miss the THPS series), skillbased 2d runners/platformers, want more to play on my Vita, and something that can be played in short bursts or for hours.

 

[Bookoo]

Loving all these indie titles. My vita is now my go to for all of them basically even though I already own a good portion of them on my PC.

Probably pick this game up tonight since I need a mental break from Spelunky.

 

[jon bones]

Killzone looks amazing, this looks like a fun time killer. Maybe we're looking at different parts of the game.

um, like gameplay? lol

 

[Hanmik]

btw.. here is my review

http://translate.google.com/transla...meldelser/1-spil/342-anmeldelse-olliolli.html

90/100 VERY hard but satisfying game.. hard to put down once you get the hang of it.

 

[De-mon]

My review (Spanish), another 9/10: http://www.vandal.net/analisis/psvita/olliolli-psn/21209

 

[JAYSIMPLE]

Day one. looks awesome

 

[Tingfrmnongpradu]

Thanks op for making this thread. I never would have known about this otherwise. I will definitely check this out!

 

[MrCow]

Thanks, then i will buy this tomorrow on eu release.
Since thps 1 ive loved Skateboarding games and it was the reason i later learned to skate. So finally a Skateboarding game on the vita is a must buy for me.

I even played this tiny hawk mobile game that was for free on promo and played it through in one session

 

[thelatestmodel]

Wow, I had all but written this game off after some of the previews. Will definitely buy now.
