Despite being a long term gamer (20 years and counting) there’s one genre to which I was very late to the party – tower defense. I’ve never really been a PC gamer and I didn’t own a smartphone until 2010 so it’s a genre I wasn’t introduced to until I bought my Playstation 3. Since then of course I’ve played many a tower defense title but the one that started it all for me was PixelJunk Monsters back in 2008. It proved so popular that it got a fresh batch of DLC and a full, deluxe edition on the PSP. Fast forward to 2012 and developer Double Eleven struck a deal with Q Games to bring the classic to the Vita. Double Eleven despite only being founded in 2009 have already won awards with LittleBigPlanet and more recently ported Limbo to the handheld so I was keen to dive in and see how the remake has been handled.
Chris of The Games Cabin: I’m free. It’s over. That’s what I said when I put down my PS Vita after finishing the last challenge on PixelJunk Monsters Ultimate HD. For the past two years (maybe a few months longer) I’ve been dipping in and out of the game. I’ve deleted it out of frustration, only to then find myself downloading it again a week later because I need to finish it. That time has come, finally.
towerfaall PlayStation Plus members in Japan will load up on Western developed games in July.
Isn't it almost time for the August lineup for PS+? Why are we getting news about July?
We should treated to more Japanese games here in the West. I wouldn't mind a few free recent RPGs on my vita :)
I support what the poster above me said haha.
