Hatsune Miku: Project Diva f

The First US release of a Project Diva game and the first to land on the PS Vita. This game really is a huge improvement compared to the highly addictive Project Diva and Project Diva 2nd games, which were already extremely enjoyable. This game features the classic rhythm mode in which you try to hit the notes when the symbol reaches the mark while a song goes on. The songs in the game are all excellent and unique in their own way. There is the Diva Room in which you play around with the Vocaloid characters. It is quite entertaining and a step up from Project Diva 2nd. Another new aspect of the game is Edit Mode. You get to make your own music video along with a rhythm level. You can use your own music or the game's music. This gives the game more hours of fun. Overall, Hatsune Miku: Project Diva F is a flawless game (In my opinion). I am very excited for the American release of Project Diva F 2nd, and I might not be able to wait and end up buying the Japanese release of it. I recommend this to anyone who loves the Vocaloids or rhythm games in general.

Beautiful visuals and good music makes this game a great game for gamers, who love rhythm games. They have improved the game-play and visuals from the psp version and now it's perfect. For me, it's the first game of the genre for the PSV and I love it. I played it 50 hours so far and I think I am addicted to it. I recommend it for everybody, who still needs a great game for the PSV. There is also a PS3 version, but the handheld version is better. There is no input lag. But if you are a graphics ****, you should buy the PS3 version. I am a graphics ****. I have both versions and totally worth it. 11/10

A fun game that unfortunately forces you to use mediocre touch controls, while the PS3 version allows you to use the sticks instead. Get the PS3 version if possible.

Presentation-wise, Project Diva f for PS Vita is almost identical to it's PS3 counterpart: it shares the same songs (with the extra songs that can be unlocked on PS3 being $10 DLC on Vita), the same charts, the same menues, etc. Other than some sporadic slow-downs it runs fairly well. The major problem with this version, however, is the notes in all of the charts appear later than they should. The timing window for getting a perfect judgement for any given note is shifted significantly after its corresponding musical cue. While on lower levels this may not be game breaking, once you hit 6+ it turns into a *very* big issue, and makes 9s/10s pretty much unplayable. The music off-set setting was removed from this version of the game as well, so those who bought it are basically SOL unless Sega decides to push down a patch for it. To be frank, it's more than a little disappointing. how this got past QA is beyond me.
