Hands on with Ys: Memories of Celceta

While many of us need to wait for it's official release here in the EU I have already picked up the US version of Ys: Memories of Celceta.
This not how I normally buy games, because I wait for the EU releases of a game.
A good reason is in most cases DLC that gets released for a game.
As for Ys: Memories of Celceta I am pretty certain that there won't be any DLC in the future and I couldn't help my self to get the collectors edition aka silver edition that was available in a game shop in Groningen (NL).

God I love a good collectors edition.

but you're not here reading me ramble about how I love collectors editions, so il cut it to the case.

Ys: Memories of Celceta starts kind of slow with a small tutorial of how some stuff works but after that I am free.
Now I personally think that Ys: Memories of Celceta looks good but I must admit it isn't the best looking game on the Vita.
It's graphical level can be compared with Ys: Seven on the PSP.
Now as for map size I am also pleased, its not big but it does give me the feeling that it is.
This Screenshot is one of the many moments when I see how big the world is
As for combat Ys never fails me.
It fun to hack and slash but I love the harder monsters that require some timing and better understanding of the combat mechanics.
I highly advice you to challenge you're self with a higher difficulty even when I am not doing this because I am also on the hunt for more trophies.

Now if you are planing to get this game you should try to get the silver edition. 
The art/guide books looks great and is a fantastic piece to have with the game.
It s giving me a nostalgic feeling when it was normal that games where shipped with a miniature guide book next to the game.

I am looking forward to explore more of the game, until that time tell me are you planning to get it? 
Or do you already have it and whats you're opinion so far.

Playstation TV Review

Also known as PSVita TV Review The Playstation TV is the way to play your favorite PSVita and Playstation classic's on the tv. Or use it as an add-on device for the PS4 to continue playing in different room if you're banished from the other one. While this sound great, sadly the PSTV is not perfect. There are enough games that have yet to get PSTV support. And if you're new to the PSVita environment don't expect to play Gravity Rush or Tearaway on the PSTV. The PSTV only support games for the PSVita that don't use or barely use the touch options of the PSVita. There are allot of things that the PSTV could support but isn't getting for now. One of those options is to play WipEout 2048 on the PSTV. While I understand that WipEout 2048 has motion controls. They don't need be there to play WipEout 2048 on the PSTV. Games like Olli Olli don't even have proper menu controls and require the use of the R3 of the Dualshock 3 and 4 or the use of t...

Sony Pulse Elite Wireless Headset Review

I have been promising that I would review the Pulse Elite after a few blogs that I wanted to write first and now with the the release of a patch on the PS4 for all Sony Pulse headsets I had, no I must write a review on this headset. Now the first question I ask my self is, why buy the Pulse Elite instead of a another headset and the reason is preferences. I want a headset that delivers me the option to be portable so I can use it on the go for my Vita or mobile phone but I also wanted the option to use it for voice chat on my PS3. The Pulse Elite delivers these options because it has two way to connect. One is via the USB dongle, which is used for the PS3 and other devices that have a USB port. The other way is via the 3.5mm cable which works pretty much with every mobile device out there on the market. Now why not get a headset that connects via Bluetooth? The reason is pretty simple but is supported by other functions this headset gives. The main reason is that there is ...

Ni No Kuni Review

A journey I wont forget. With so many RPG's out there its hard to find the right one. Since most of them are focused on their battle system that they forget the main reason why people to play them. What drove me was the world I had to explore and the people that inhabit them. Sadly most of the modern RPG's are grinding games which I hate because spending hours fighting to get past some bosses didn't feel epic or fun at all. Ni No Kuni did all the right things, that I wasn't done with it even after I was done with the story. Every part of the world was a delight to explore and a joy to the eyes that it is hard to explain that a few images will only do it justice for a little bit. With this world also comes a nice and memorable soundtrack that humes with me when I traverse the world. It a orchestra type of music so it isn't everyones kind of juice but works well with this game. The game may scare people away for its kiddy look, even ...
