The Playstation Vita is a powerful piece of kit with a slew of new tools and features for which you'd think would demand the most talent and time to reach its full its potential. And yet, we see a quantum leap in just mere months from its release.
Gravity Rush, or Gravity Daze in native Japan, is the Vita's first original action adventure game, and what a fantastic way to be introduced to this wonderful new handheld device.
From the creators of the Silent Hill and Forbidden Siren of all things, Gravity Rush pits the amnesiac Kat in the supposedly normal floating city of Hekseville. She's quickly greeted by a mysterious black cat that grants her the ability to control surrounding gravity, allowing her to stand on the side of buildings, on ceilings, etc, with the ubiquitous feline friend following her every move.
Soon after, the town's invaded by the dark and ghastly Nevi along with the sinister genius master Alias, whilst another girl with similar powers to Kat also roams the city - could there be a connection between these and Kat's memory loss?
If you're looking for a game that puts the Vita's unique features to good use, this is it!
Unlike other titles which feel to have shoehorned them in any shape or form, making for some rather distracting gameplay elements, Rush's concept genuinely feels as if built around the device's features.
The draw, of course, is the control of gravity. By simply pressing the R button, Kat can be lifted and shot into any direction, or hover in mid air. The motion sensor can then be used for directing Kat's flying abilities and camera movement. Or, if this feels uncomfortable, you can use the right analog stick instead.... Read more ›

I played the demo, and it didn't do the game anything like the justice it deserved.
The game's initial pace was methodically slow, easing you into the new game mechanics. The story is a bit patchy but as games go it is good enough.
I am a picky gamer. I detest FPS on anything but a PC. I deplore rehashed money spinning games. I usually don't touch games with a metascore of less than 85 and don't even enjoy many of those BUT this game has new and polished game mechanics, a perfect interface and art-style/graphics that will finally enable the more scorned of PS Vita owners to jump in the air with joy knowing in their heart that their purchase wasn't a mistake.
In summary, this game is refreshingly original and playable. For a handheld, its originality is unique. To bring a top game to the Vita, well, hats off to Sony.
This game brings what would be a classic on any format to the PS Vita.
Welcome Gravity Rush to the Hall of Games.

Didn't get this game until very recently as it never really shouted out to me, however, after playing it it has become by far my favourite vita game and I reccommend to anyone who has a vita and enjoys open world gaming with a twist to go and buy this right now, it is a must have! 10/10

I've had my Vita for 8 months now and have enjoyed what games have come around.
Until Gravity Rush I had been searching for a game to enjoy as much as I did with Uncharted.
The graphics are done perfectly, the right kind of effect to truly showcase the Vita's hardware capability.
The game play takes a about an hour to master but various challenges help accelerate this process.
The storyline is fun with the right mix of evil villains and all out action.
I can't recommend this game enough, it is worth the full £30 in my eyes, you won't be disappointed.

This game has bags of charm and, as far as I can see, almost endless playability.
The story is intriguing and the visuals are spectacular. There are some very clever uses of the Vitas special features here. The world in which it's set reminds me of final fantasy VII and the fun I find is also fairly similar. The gravity element, gliding from wall to wall and launching kick attacks from great distance is also surprisingly simple to master. It looks complicated, but it's not. Be sure to investigate the underside of the city too as there are loads of gems. Be careful not to run out of gravity juice though.
I only bought the Vita with a load of games of ebay for flights etc, but have found myself hooked on this magical delightful game. Games rarely interest me anymore, Skyrim being the last (almost a year ago). Gravity Rush reminds me why I liked games in the first place
