Before we begin, I'd just like to comment that it literally took me 20 Minutes to think of a Headline for this entry. Now then...

Akiba's Trip: Undead and Undressed takes RPGs to a whole new level of weird. Ditching HP for CP (Clothing Points), you have to rip off an opponent's clothing to make them melt in the sunlight (They are Vampires, see...). That, or if they're just a normal person, they'll run away embarrassed. Anyway...this game is really good. It features a near-perfect recreation of Akihabara, Japan's "electronics mecca". However, it's best not to take it seriously, as the plot is mostly satirical. That being said though, it's a convenient excuse to be apathetic towards everything else. Yes, this game is that good.

Ridge Racer for the Vita was not exactly the pick for "Game of the Year" when it released. It depends WAY too much on Downloadable Content, as opposed to unlocking things through actually playing. If you can get past that though (I doubt many of us can), then you'll find a decent game here. I say decent because it also relies too much on Online Play, which I think is stupid. Overall, this game could have been so much better. Then again, Namco has been going down farther and farther these past few years.

Disgaea 4 for the Vita is a port of the PS3 Version. Well, actually, "port" is debatable, as it contains all the DLC and then some from the PS3 Version. Essentially, it's a "Complete" Version of Disgaea 4. It's a near-perfect game with only a few minor hiccups, and it's very well done. There are several references to previous games (and spin-offs), and being a Complete Version, it is packed to the brim and over with content. In this case, you truly get more than your money's worth. It's also easily accessible to newcomers, including a feature called the "Cheat Shop" and what-not.

Well, that's all for now. Also, for those looking forward to the first entry of my new Glove Gaming Series, it will probably be posted later today or tomorrow.
