I fancy it but I don't wanna pay more than £15.

I paid 14.99 for it. About right since it is a defiantly old-school nothing-new platformer.
If in doubt, put the kettle on.

This does get quite difficult as it goes on.

In fact, I'm alternating Into Dark Souls to give myself a break from the difficulty.

I lost count of how many times I attempted the second bonus level having unlocked the required 45 pink things.. the last jump at the end!! Couldn't get the timing right. As you have to do the whole level perfectly to do it I started panicing.. the rest of it though is pretty damn good.. really enjoying it.

I quite fancy this on the PSVita. I'm almost tempted to buy one to play it, because it does sound like a very good conversion.

Why on earth would you shell out over £200 quid for a Vita when you can probably get this for under £30 on the 360?

Good question. It's probably mostly down to gadget fetishism. I like the idea of a super-sexy 2D game running on that screen. I played Wipeout on the PSV at Eurogamer last year and I am clutching for a good reason to get one.

I quite like the look of Gravity Rush too, and if Persona 4 is released over here on Vita it's an instabuy for me.

Incidentally, Rayman Origins (demo out now) runs like hot sex on my PC and the full game will be £20 so it's got no chance of going anywhere near my 360.

Well you'll be even madder to get it on the Vita then. :wink:

Me? Mad? Neeeever...

But yeah, I am probably just looking for an excuse to get one because it's a snazzy new piece of kit. The portability of the device is a big sell to me, not only for the train but for lunchtimes in the office, and a quick blast in the evening if I decide to stay late ... excuses, excuses ... but so far I have resisted (I'm using stuff like the high cost of memory cards to put myself off). I doubt it'll last forever!
