Obscure Games: Gravity Rush

I just saw this up today, and the art style caught my eye. It's cel-shaded and it looks really good. It seems as if you are playing a cartoon (It's not cartoons, it's anime - Sheldon) Looks like it could be interesting with the game play being focused on gravity. The art style keeps it unique but I am going to hold off any judgement till I can play a demo or see more videos of it.

I think this is a good transition into a great discussion. While you are playing a game you enjoy, what makes you remember it and what makes it unique?

I will try to find something to show every week or so. Maybe it will help get those gears grinding.

This is just my thoughts of games I thought were interesting and below people's radar.

I've been watching this title. It is absolutely gorgeous. Previously I had only seen screenshots, so it is great to see it in video form!
