Salt and Sanctuary
Taken from Best PS Vita Games Description: We never knew we wanted a side-scrolling rendition of Dark Souls, but we’re glad someone realized our unknown desires for us. Ska Studios obviously took note of FromSoftware’s hardcore action RPG series for their take on the franchise. Salt and Sanctuary throws you into a world rife with strife, as evidenced by all the darkness that enraptures it. Your custom character can adopt one/two-handed weapons, shields, magical spells and other essential tools for battle. The gameplay is deep and expectedly tough to endure. Finally beating Salt and Sanctuary will put you on a high that’s hard to come down from. Multiple playthrough’s of this dark adventure are a must.

TrackMania Turbo
You probably didn’t even know this crazy racer dropped last year, did you? You’d be forgiven for not knowing it ever existed. TrackMania Turbo not only threw in some of the wildest tracks ever included in a racer, it also gave you the chance to make some of your very own. We spent most of our time crafting roller coaster loops within some lush green expanses just so we could throw ourselves into some motor mayhem. The co-op multiplayer mode is another feature of this racer that helps separate it from Ubisoft’s underwhelming open-world racer. Ignore The Crew and spend more of your time making wild leaps with your custom ride in TrackMania Turbo. This stands tall as the current-gen ModNation Racers successor we always wanted.
Dark Souls 3
The world’s toughest, yet supremely gratifying action RPG came back for a farewell tour. Thankfully, this Dark Souls finale included the same dreary, soul sapping environments it sends your warrior into. From Software made the proper adjustments to the battle system to make it way more fluid, faster and exciting thanks to new special weapon maneuvers. The “Ashes of Ariandel” DLC added even more substantial content to a game that’s already packed with enough it. Thrilling PvP battles, amazing orchestral anthems, plenty of hidden secrets and balanced combat are all a part of the Dark Souls 3 experience.
DiRT Rally
Taken from Game Review: DiRT Rally is indeed quite the hill to overcome for those who aren’t very experienced with rally racing releases. But for those who are (or for those who’re willing to put in the time to learn the game’s basics), there’s a rewarding racer here. There’s so much to do – mastering tracks during solo runs, buying new team mechanic contracts, adding new cars to your garage, excelling on stages with ever changing terrain etc. The racing itself is finely tuned here, so you can only blame yourself for your mistakes and not the mechanics at play. Mastering DiRT Rally may prove to be a challenge that some may not overcome. But it’s a challenge that’s supplemented by an addictive loop that will push you to become the very best.
