Has any review said how long the game is? The few I read just said short

 

[Nev]

i'm with you. i'll take a 10 hour linear adventure over huge open world any day of the week

Same. Nowadays seems every game needs to be open world, even fucking platformers. I just want World 1, level 2 stuff, not a toned down boring GTA.

Not to mistake with things like FFXIII.

EDGE specifically cites 6-7 hours

 

[AniHawk]

Well, there's the issue - you've ignored a large part of why the game is great.

LBP2 was better than the first one in every way and felt like the definitive LBP. I don't see how it was unnecessary.

i mean it's cool other people made good levels, but i'm talking about mm's own design skills. the campaign mode of lbp2 is really unfocused. i understand why, but that doesn't make the game any more fun to play.

SSM and Naughty Dog would like a word with you!

i know what i said

The game does sound short indeed, but I don't plan on rushing through it. A lot of reviews mention that the game has a lot of variety despite its length. I'm hoping for a Portal type of experience - short but AMAZING!

I DONT WIPE PROPERLY

You can beat SMW in an incredibly short amount of time but that doesn't stop it from not being one of the best platformers ever.

 

[grounded_dreams]

SimplyGames have dispatched my order - lovely stuff

 

[ZedIndyLil]

Really surprised at the scores, almost to the point of caution. Gameplay is still core to any video game experience, and I still don't fully grasp the gameplay here. Which I'm OK with! Just don't want to get my hopes up. This will basically be my only game of the holidays. Really looking forward to getting my hands on this Friday.

 

[Omikaru]

So glad this game is getting good reviews. My pre-order just began processing today, so I'll have it by tomorrow or Friday. Hype!

I understand. Whats with the weird quote though?

 

[SmashN'Grab]

Looking forward to this, the reviews are very good. Glad to see someone go all out on the Vita hardware and really try to take advantage of all those inputs in an imaginative way.

 

[ButchCat]

This is the Vita's first A+ game no?

 

[LiquidMetal14]

I understand. Whats with the weird quote though?

Lol wrong user. Friend just sent me that message and it somehow ended up in my qoute.

 

[greg400]

Damn good, well deserved from what I've seen. The game is bursting with creativity.

 

[Dr. Zoidberg]

Don't like the look of this game or the reliance on control gimmicks but these reviews are making me want to play it anyway.

As a sort of interactive art exhibit, Tearaway is delightful. As a game, it's disappointingly one-note.

This is what I expected, but everyone else seems to love it. Might wait on PS+. I don't have any free space on my Vita anyway.

 

[IvorB]

This combined with Killzone: Mercenary and P4G is the absolute trifecta on Vita. No one should say this thing has no games anymore

Don't forget Soul Sacrifice, man.

 

[Gaz_RB]

holy shit, this game looks amazing.

 

[kaskade]

This game has been completely off my radar for some reason. Now I can't wait to play it. I've been wanting a real platformer for a long time.

 

[TetraGenesis]

Holy shit. GOTY material?? I'm so happy! I was really worried that this might end up a surprise dud.

Let's hope the sales are okay.

 

[Owzers]

O______O The best reviewed games this fall will be on Wii U and Vita?

...and only one a piece.

 

[zroid]

And 3DS

(Zelda)

Bravely Default could pull some big numbers from the Euro press too, although probably won't quite average in the 90s.

 

[silver.tongue]

This is the Vita's first A+ game no?

Depends on your taste I guess.
The Vita ahs a bunch of B, B+ and A games. But A+....

I guess Persona4G, LBPV, UnchartedGA and now Tearaway.
Maybe Wipeout 2048 too.

 

[Lamiafusion]

Did the Vita just get a system seller?

Lol, true. ViitaU bringing the GOTYs. And they're 3D platformers, no less <3

 

[FonkyByNature]

Definitely getting this game when it's out !

Reviews are great and the game looks like a blast to play ! + It's Media Molecule, creative people !

 

[sixteen-bit]

I'm considering a Vita TV. Is this game playable without a touch interface?

 

[KingGondo]

Ordered. My Vita's been gathering dust but this looks like it's worth firing it back up.

 

[donkey show]

I'm considering a Vita TV. Is this game playable without a touch interface?

Nope.

 

[joe2187]

I'm considering a Vita TV. Is this game playable without a touch interface?

This game uses all the functions of the Vita, so nope.

 

[maxcriden]

I'm glad to see this is getting such great reviews. It looks to be one of the most fun games on Vita. The only thing I am disappointed to hear about is the length. The origami feature sounds awesome.

 

[Spieler Eins]

lol, so what's the point of TV Vita again? First ,,killer app'' not even playable on the thing...
And it's really the only Vita version I'd consider buying, too bad.

 

[Blinck]

Sad about the lack of replay value, but damn I'm so getting this. Very happy about the reviews!

 

[Deleted member 8095]

Those reviews are stellar! Unfortunately, I can't justify buying a Vita for a 7 hour game. However, remote play with my PS4 would be nice...

 

[purnoman3000]

I keep saying I'm going to buy a vita but I delay, delay, delay. No further, this and remote play have pushed me over the edge and driven into the ground then dropped a boulder on me. Rejoice Vita GAF bros. for there is another in your fold.

[MattHelgeson]

hey i don't really post here much so i acknowledge that this is sorta spam, but anyway i reviewed the game for game informer and i did a little step-by-step on making one of the unlockable papercraft models...glad people are excited about this game, it's very inventive and charming and i think the downloadable models are really a neat feature.

Oh man...
I don't even want to know what distorted idea of vita haters filled your heads with, vita has already many great games, games that would have been considered awesome on any other console(uncharted, wipeout, gravity rush, killzone etc) on vita they are not even considered because haters say so and lazy uninformed people listen to them...

Do yourselves a favor and look at the vita lineup(try something if you can) for yourselves without any influence from others and let's see if you will still think that tearaway is the vita's only great game.

 

[Gaz_RB]

This is available digitally Tuesday right?

Agreed. Just got a vita last week, and my mind is still imploding. gravity rush is amazing

 

[cyborg009]

Great reviews and no Vita tax

 

[Acquiescence]

Take solace in the fact that the game probably didn't cost much to develop. It wasn't even made by the whole of MediaMolecule, but rather a splinter group consisting of 15 people, allegedly.

The Vita's library is solid, more than justifies the purchase. Then again, seeing what Sony's 1st party studios are capable of on the Vita, I can't help but want some more upcoming games from them. Gravity Rush 2 is the only game we have as far as I know.

There's also this Tearaway review from some site I haven't heard of:

Thought it was Friday

 

[VanWinkle]

And 3DS

(Zelda)

Speaking of Zelda, did reviews come out for that yet? It sure is getting close to release.

 

[Muzy72]

What time should we expect this to be up on the PS store?

 

[Muzy72]

Reviews came out last week for Zelda

Yep, nearly a week ago in fact. Here's the review thread: http://neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=715595

Great scores, Zeer0id.

any reason to buy this physically? You get absolutely everything (pre-orders) buying it from PSN on Friday, right?

Double-sided cover.

 

[Paskil]

Just noticed the Paprika reference in the first review. I gotta hear the soundtrack now. Absolutely love the Paprika soundtrack.

 

[harSon]

I want this really badly...
