Strange, I was convinced you sent an email ?
I told Jeff this morning "have you checked what is that thing that Jamesac is talking on the forum about ?".

Coming TxK from @llamasoft_ox really is - alone - worth purchasing a PS Vita for.

@llamasoft_ox From the little I've played (around stage 30), this is easily one of the best arcade-style games I've ever played.

EDIT: Ah, apparently so (after looking at the comments on YT)..
1/2 point, it is from the Atari 2600 version of pitfall.

@blakespot @llamasoft_ox I couldn't agree more! I thought Tempest 2000 on the Jag was unbeatable and TxK def pulls it off.

Nick's good people. He works for Sony but *really* knows his games. His opinions on games are usually pretty darn spot-on

Just hold the Vita closer to your eyes, turn the volume up and play TxK.
Personally I find handheld gaming with a good set of headphones more immersive than playing on a TV.
