Theres a tiny orange box moving around the screen of the PlayStation Vita. Its name is Chris. It is an ordinary square perhaps even less than ordinary. This square doesnt jump very high, cant float and it has largely committed to going through its digital life as a grump. That is, until Chris meets Laura. Laura is afraid of her powers. Laura is also a box a long, rectangular pink-ish box. Five months into 2013 and gamers have already been introduced to a bounty of impressive characters and worlds. Not all have been a success, such as the recent digital interpretations of Kirk and Spock in Star Trek or the thick-skulled gunners of the most recent Dead Space. Others, such as Elizabeth in Bioshock Infinite, brought an emotional center to the usually mechanical first-person shooter genre.
