Comparing it to the PSP counterpart that was released several years ago, I must say that the PS Vita looks so much clearer that the depth of its colors are precise and the accuracy is just about right. Everything from its environments, art and those cute little creatures that you have to save, the visuals somehow shine like a diamond in the sky. No big changes were done, except Double Games refined the assets used to make it look better on the PS Vita. The game is still in 2D and those who have played the PSP version before will notice the big differences.Fun and AddictingPS Vita owners who just bought the console, make sure to get PixelJunk Monsters: Ultimate HD first as it’s one of those titles that is guaranteed to give you lots of enjoyment.
