I guess by today's standards you would consider a game like Gravity Rush 2 to be considered niche. After all, there's no English dub. But a game like this should get more attention. It's a unique IP with a cool premise. Being able to shift gravity and fight in the air or on the ground however you wish is a pretty cool gameplay mechanic. One that takes a little bit of getting used to, but overall not bad. The game also has lush "anime" graphics and cool blur effects. Most importantly, it's pretty fun, and a big step up from the previous game that originated on the Vita. So what are your thoughts on this game, SW? Any interest? Have you played it? Admittedly I'm late to it, but so far I think it's a huge step from the first game. It also has much better controls now that its on console, and more options for combat, which were very basic in the previous game. Enemy variety and type are better too.

I still have to play the remastered first one. Looks like the type of game I'd enjoy, though

I gotta be honest, no and no. Maybe I pick it up on a whim during a sale or something, but I have no interest in actively scouting it out and playing through it.

Yup, I liked it a lot. Gameplay wise, it reminds me of 3D Sonic and Rodea, albeit its version of the homing attack could be a lot tighter, and the art, music, and overall charm are top notch. I hope there's a third game, because I feel like with just a little more refinement in the gameplay, it could be something really special.

Oh, and there's no English dub, because they're speaking a fake language (it's a combination of French and Japanese). Panzer Dragoon is another series that did the same thing.

Also Shadow of the Colossus, Twilight Princess, Skyward Sword, and even Splatoon (lol)

I saw it at the store still listed for $60, definitely waiting for price drop first. But even before I consider that, need to wipe out some of my PS4 backlog, including the original Gravity Rush. Managed to pick up a physical copy a while back, for some strange reason it's a digital only game except Amazon had an exclusive arrangement to distribute new copies of disc versions. I do think GameStop does sell used disc copies when they come by them though. But yeah, that was only $30 when I got it, I think they're done printing them and they're already rare, checking online the cheapest used copy is a hair under $70. Ouch, glad I got mine when I did.

Anyhow, finish by backlog, next on my list of games to get is Horizon and Last Guardian, then I may consider Gravity Rush, if I'm not sucked into getting any of those enticing collections like WipeOut or LocoRoco or Patapon.

I had it pre-ordered and got it the day it came out, but I haven't played it yet. I wanted to finish the first game first, but I haven't done that yet.

I was always interested in gravity rush, but didnt have a vita. Now I have one and just got gravity rush 1, so we'll see how that goes, if all is well then I will pick up 2 after a while.

I loved it. My only issue is the second one dragged on a little towards the end. The second game had a few other places of questionable game design. If you like light hearted super hero movies this game is great.

The side quests are repetitive but luckily you are not forced to do them. I suggest going through the main story first otherwise you will get burnt out. I strongly advise not trying to 100% everything before moving on.

The controls are a big barrier to new comers. Don't feel discouraged if you feel you aren't good, it will take some time to adjust. Once you get good, traversal and combat will feel greatly satisfying.

Gravity Rush is a bit of a flawed diamond. If it's on sale I recommend picking it up. The unique art style, story and gameplay combined makes this game something you should at least try.

I recently gamefly'd it and I'm having a difficult time getting into it. I really enjoyed the first one on the vita but this one seems off to me so far. I need to play it more before passing final judgment though.

A lot of the complaints I see from NeoGAF makes this game sound really off-putting to me, but it's like.... fuuuuuuck we got a sequel to Gravity Rush? And like a sequel so packed with shit people allegedly say it feels like Gravity Rush 2, 3, and 4 all together?

I think the first is a good time, a full-blown console sequel would be an instant-play any other year. I might get it soon and play it after P5 and Zeruda.

been trying to finish for nearly 2 months now

The side quests are so wretched that i have to put the controller down every 10 minutes or so.Then there are those shitty forced stealth missions.....

I don't understand how this got a 9/10.It's a 5/10 and that's being generous

I guess it's a love it or hate it game, but all i can say is the Lunar gravity skill alone makes this game worth playing.

@ShepardCommandr: the worst part is that melee combat. Thought the first game would be more a platformer and not an action game about dive kicking and beating up dudes. Shit is mad shallow. Makes dynasty warriors look like Devil May Cry.

I finished the first one. It was a frustrating game because of mechanics. I plan to buy the 2nd part when it goes on sale...but currently I am busy with horizon zero dawn.

I intend to buy it someday. I might get the remastered version and play that first before starting 2 though, it's been a long time since I played the first one on Vita

No, only tried the demo of the original and didn't like it. Floating in the air makes the combat difficult.

did they fix it? i played the first one on the vita and liked a lot of things about it. the whole falling/flying around the place was nice. great music. nice setting. quite a charming game.

but the combat was...well it was sloppy as all hell. i could only put up with it for so long.

Loved it :) The whole freedom and wackiness type of thing going on is a damn nice departure from the typicality of many games. Would definitely preorder 3 if/when it happens!

I beat it, and while I enjoyed it for the most part, it certainly wore out its welcome by the last quarter of the game.

TC isn't a vita fanboy. I'm the only idiot who fits that category in this forum.
