There's a very good🎶 chance you haven't played Gravity Rush, so let me start by saying you really, really need to. It's a full-fat, open world, 21-chaptered action extravaganza that looks every bit the AAA home console game. Perhaps that home console would '♉only' be a PS3, but the fact remains: Vita unfairly sidelined this brilliant game, and PS4 is its deserved home.
Again, raising questions about its suitability for a handheld launch title, it starts too slowly. As headstrong heroine Kat, you awaken with no memories in a stra🉐nge town that appears to be in the middle of some otherworldly 'gravity storm' that's tearing buildings apart. There are also strange black creatures (reminiscent of Kingdom Hearts' Heartless) appearing and terrorising the locals.
Despite not knowing why any of this is happening, you begin to try restoring the broken city and rescuing its inhabitants. The plot gets much, much more interesting, thanks to a face-changinဣg bad guy named Alias and several mysterious characters, but each revelation contributes greatly to your enjoyment of the game, so I shan't spoil them for you here.
All the while, you're being followed by a black cat whose fur looks like stardust (so you name him 'Dusty'), and it turns out Dusty's 🐟presence grants you the ability to shift gravity. Want to walk on the ceiling? Just point the camera there and push a button. Boom – you're walking on the ceiling.
Nope. If you tilt the DualShock 4, you can tilt the layered comic book cut-scenes, which is neither a bonus or a hindrance. As for the game itself, you play it with the sticks and buttons, like a proper game. And th♚e lack of a touch screen simply doesn't matter. It just plays like a home console game.
