Fucking love this system, when you talk about must haves and then you get bombed with over 100 individual titles... Basically anything that has already been said...

Might start being easier to recommend what NOT to buy in the future.

There's no accounting for taste, hundreds of games available and very little consensus outside of P4G. Maybe try setting up a poll instead? That would give you a more definitive thread top ten if that's what you want.

Really started getting into Soul Sacrifice, although i must admit I find it a bit tricky at times. Think I will grab freedom wars as well and then I have a great little collection to work through already.

Gladiator Begins

 

[TheSecondSpitter]

Killzone Mercenary is the best FPS handheld experience. Ever.

It's the game CoD Vita should have been.

 

[Benzychenz]

For me:

Persona 4 Golden
Virtue's Last Reward
Zero Time Dilemma
Danganronpa
Danganronpa 2
Steins;Gate
(soon) Steins;Gate 0

It's almost an adventure/visual novel machine lol. There's a few good action games and stuff but none I'd put in my must have pile.

 

[depths20XX]

Does Steins;Gate have any gameplay elements or is it just straight up reading?

I've thought about getting it but I usually like visual novels when they have other gameplay elements in there. i.e. Phoenix Wright, Danganronpa, 999.

Straight up reading.

The story is amazing though and well worth it.

 

[HotHamBoy]

I disagree with a lot of these. Some are way too niche or of an acquired taste to be considered "must have."

But the subject is "your" must have, so opinions.

 

[Shin-chan]

For me:

Persona 4 Golden
Virtue's Last Reward
Zero Time Dilemma
Danganronpa
Danganronpa 2

Man you need to play Cold Steel! The best game that's entered my Vita.

 

[Greddleok]

Surprised at all the Freedom Wars comments. I played it for about 50 hours, and while it was fun (aside from a fucking slow start), the gameplay is extremely shallow.

 

[Benzychenz]

I actually own it, but I only ever got like 1/4 through Trails in the Sky, so I need to go back and finish that one first.

First time I've seen the Batman game recommended by anyone, I thought that would be great and as a huge fan of the arkham games i almost bought it, was a shame to see it didnt review too well though so I avoided it until its on a big sale discount.
