Great article Sammy, it doesn't help that different sites have different scoring systems too - a review is always subjective so I guess you can't really compare two review scores anyway.

I like review scores, I think they are very useful, I also think a clear scoring policy (like here) is really helpful. It amazes me the amount of people that think a 6 or a 7 is a bad score, it's not. 5 is the average, so even a 5 could be a good game for you - its just less likely.

I always compare my behavior on this to films on IMDb, anything under a 6.0 and I'll start to question it. I guess its about time we introduced a similar user-rating system on here, I'm on it

I'm still working my way through Metal Gear Rising and I'm loving it.

@KenB I kind of agree with what your saying, there were problems with the PS3, but hindsight makes them look simple... remember the PS2 didn't have anything like this. I think it's a really good sign that they are publicly addressing the issues, not a lot of companies would do that. Shifting to x86 is probably really good for developers and should mean cheaper consoles, good for the consumer.

Have to agree with the Media Molecule demo though, I have no idea what that was all about...

I'm most interested in DriveClub actually... that looks pretty dope.

Very good news.

No, they didn't show the hardware... as for the date, I'll believe it when I see it!

@Valky lol, awesome.

@KALofKRYPTON yeah, they've also talked about using low-power consumption parts which, of course, will impact on power, but also on the price.

@SilentJ haha, I think we all feel like that today!

@Valky yeah, I'm expecting a price cut... but hopefully will be a footnote in the announcements... I'm sure it will feature though.

This all seems quite elaborate for a PS Vita price drop announcement!

Colour me excited. Really looking forward to this now!

I hope they aren't trying to cram too much stuff into the single controller... it could become a total Frankenstein! It does need an update though, I'll be surprised if they refine the shape much, it's so iconic. Not long until we find out!

It's really interesting, I wouldn't be surprised if they name it something else in Japan!

Hah, indeed - it'll probably slip again

Ooo very exciting. Great teaser.

I love the amount of effort they have gone to behind this, brilliant.

Didn't see that coming.

That's a LOT of Borderlands 2 stuff!

Is there a price for the flash memory version? I guess it could/should be the cheapest option, will be interesting to see how cheap it is.

As a huge fan of the first 3 games in the series and not so much for recent entries I was really excited when this was announced earlier in the year.

Having now played it for a while I'm pretty happy with the result - it has the same feel as the original games whilst having a good revamp in the graphics department. For the price, you really can't go wrong. Nice one!

Hopefully the next Wipeout will be up to scratch - I'm sure they've thought things through - right?

Obviously using a very large font and double line spacing!

@get2sammyb it doesn't appear to be a slot loader either, looks like the top has an open/flap, which is unusual considering the current design. Could be fake, or an old prototype... wouldn't actually surprise me if it was the finished article though.

Makes a lot of sense if its going to be cheaper for Sony to produce, not sure the design is anything special though... isn't this a record, first time a console has had a 3rd design?

Can't wait, loved the Wii game but never got around to finishing it, with this I'll be starting a fresh in lovely HD. WIN!

Great review Jon, looks like another slightly-mad but solid game. I'm interested, but can't justify the spend

Looking forward to it, really enjoyed the first 3 games in the series.

Oh snap, I've been waiting about 5 years to get my hands on this after a handful of arcade blasts. Finally.

Pretty sure I played this at the Eurogamer Expo last year, and frankly I couldn't tell what was going on, guess that didn't get fixed.

Great, downloading now should be useful over the weekend!

Be there or be... Push Square!

Fantastic guide guys, everything I needed to know!

You've got something for monster trucks haven't you?

I wish I was better at these shmups!

NEUTRINO speed!

"1.) Is this the real Sammy? You wrote an entire essay without using "yo" once. " - LOL

@ShogunRok that's why we thought we'd help the poor man out - he's been gunning alone until now..

@WolfRamHeart glad to have you join us in our PlayStation adventure!

@turtlelink @Koto @Azikira thanks all!

@JamieO you can start with Crash Team Racing

@JamieO looking forward to some retro reviews from your PSone collection!

@Phoenixborn yep, everything PlayStation will be covered.

@JarvanZheitk as we've merged Movemodo and Vitagamr into Push Square it's actually one less site to worry about

@GundamMac practically a one-man operation with Sammy. We've known him for a long time and felt it was a great idea to join forces and launch this!

@Kimiko It's here now: http://www.pushsquare.com/feeds/latest?system=psvita sorry about that!

@knux we did consider "PlayStation Life"... for about 3 seconds.

Thanks guys, we hope everyone feels the same way!

I'm NOT wearing a Nintendo Life t-shirt in that picture... honest!
