[Vita Review] Orgarhythm

orgarhythm ps vita review

Orgarhythm is essentially a battle of brothers or of light and dark Gods. You must rise up against your brother with your rhythm yielding legion of warriors using music and beats as your commands.

As part rhythm game, part strategy and part RTS, Orgarythm sounds like the ultimate clash of genres but this is only in theory and not execution.

The very first level has the best music that I’ve experienced in the entire game thus far. When the march of death starts, you have to tap one of three commands with the beat and button glow the best you can to get a good timing rating. There are three sets of commands you must choose and get them all perfect or your warriors will actually level down.

Event Coverage: Maxim And Rock The Vote Celebrate The Launch Of Assassin’s Creed 3


Note the official title of this event: Maxim and Rock The Vote Celebrate the launch of Assassin’s Creed 3. By the title you can just tell this is not dedicated towards who matters most, the fans that buy and support this series. As soon as I set foot in front of the venue, I knew that this event was more a “show” than a celebration. Just look at the red carpet photos and you can tell whoever organized this event wanted it to have some kind of hit summer movie, red carpet premiere vibe. Sure it had Movie and TV stars, but what does that have to do with Assassin’s Creed 3? I understand if it would have been the voice actors, however it was exactly the opposite. Most of the attendees were just your typical Hollywood club hoppers who were there for the free booze. I am all about complimentary drinks and open bar, however this was just ridiculous. The event was totally private and you had to be invited.

More and a gallery of pics after the jump!!

[Vita Review] Dokuro

Dokuro is a side scrolling, puzzle solving platformer with a skeleton protagonist that can change into a pseudo prince on occasion, thanks to a magical elixir, in order to solve puzzles to rescue the princess from the Dark Lord.

There isn’t much of a story other than the Dark Lord kidnapped the blonde princess in order to wed her. Dokuro has mixed feelings about that, even though he is the Dark Lord’s subordinate.

[PSN Review] Sound Shapes

Artistic platformer, please meet my friend the music mixer?

What is it?:
You’re a ball, with a tail of sorts, that rolls around and will occasionally find things to climb into/interact with.
