Attack of the lack

Brand-new games for the Vita from the PlayStation Store are a little thin on the ground this week, truth be told.

In fact, there's just a single fresh full-price title to check out. Fortunately, it's a bit of a corker.

So, without further ado, let's get down to it.

PS Vita update thrusters: Engaged!

Full-price releases

This week's single full-price new Vita game is When Vikings Attack, which we called "enjoyable, addictive, and everything you could want from a portable multiplayer gem" in our review of it.

You can grab that for £7.99 / $9.99. And, well, that's about it really. Show's over, nothing more to see here, you can all go home now.

Hopefully, we'll see more full-price Vita games on the Store next week.

In the run-up to Christmas, one new PS Vita game on the Store this week can't be a good sign for the fledging handheld.

PlayStation Mobile releases

To the new PS Mobile titles up for grabs this week, then.

You Are The Ref is a football knowledge game, which tests how much you know about The Beautiful Game.

Released on iPhone in 2010, the game will set you back £2.79 on Vita. In comparison, it's £1.49 on iPhone (cue us moaning about Vita prices... again).

But, wait: there's more!

You Are The Umpire is available on Vita, too. This also originally came out on iPhone back in 2010. This version tests your cricket knowledge, and also costs £2.79 (compared to the iPhone version's £1.49 RRP).

Grumble, grumble.

And for our US readers, there's a new PS minis title available called Enchanted Cavern. It's a match-three game that takes you on a journey beyond the edge of wonderzzzzzzzzz...

Apologies, we drifted off for a moment there. That's $2.99, if you're so inclined.

PSP and PSone Classics

Ragnarok Tactics is now available for PSP for $24.99. It's a spin-off of PC MMORPG Ragnarok Online, and features Japanese tactical RPG gameplay.

Then, you've got 2002 PS2 action game Rygar: The Legendary Adventure, priced $9.99.

And that's another week done and dusted. Toodle pip!
