Gravity Rush

pro

Gravity Rush offers a fresh, head-spinning mode of world transportation. The system does ramp up in difficulty quickly, but power ups help you keep up with the curve.

pro

Kat is a character you can actually invest care into and enjoy her confused yet fun personality. Additional characters provide a well-rounded cast for the story presented. Mystical animals and other "shifters" open up an interest into this world immediately from the start.

pro

Challenges are where Kat's ability upgrades really shine. Some near impossible challenges are pulled off easily with an upgraded Kat; others provide you with an opportunity to test your focus like never before.

pro

DLC packs offer nice side stories and even more challenges that allow you the opportunity to upgrade Kat's abilities even more.

pro

A constantly loading world barely has any stutters or pop-in that disrupts the experience. Much of this is helped by the visual art style. It creates the appearance of a building being slowly drawn into view.

con

An enchanting story ends just as soon as it starts building up great mystery about everything going on in the world and with Kat. Unfortunately the DLC packs answer none of these questions.

con

Mind-bending controls, as fresh and fun as they are, will drive you crazy at times. Much patience is needed, especially with the challenges. The slightest mistake can ruin your entire attempt.

con

Vita's Near functionality would be perfect for sending challenges to friends. Sadly, Gravity Rush offers no online functionality at all.
