Tearaway, I write in todayâs New York Times, is a system-defining game for the PlayStation Vita. Itâs as perfect for Vita as Super Mario 64 was for the N64 and Brain Age was for the DS.
Some music is made for violin and unimaginable for trumpet. Other pieces are best on piano, worst on drums. Some video games are also like this, designed particularly for a particular instrument. An oddity called Tearaway, recently released by the British studio Media Molecule, is one such game. It enjoys the fortune and suffers the misfortune of being perfect for the unorthodox and not very popular hand-held PlayStation VitaâŠ
A struggling system can certainly have a great game that is perfectly tailored for it, and that is what we have with Tearaway. Itâs a piece of music well worth playing. But youâll have to buy an obscure instrument just for it.
Read the rest in todayâs paper or on the Timesâ site. And read our own Kotaku review, too. Better yet⊠play this game!
