John Bates and Jennifer Pourchot from Pelfast write on EU Playstation.Blog:
"We are excited to announce the upcoming PSN release of our highly acclaimed debut title, Comet Crash. Comet Crash has turned the tower defense genre on its head with completely new and exciting gameplay.
Tower defence fans appreciate the simple yet addictive experience of building towers to defend from enemy waves. On the other hand, we at Pelfast love the thrill of a massive offensive rush to demolish an enemy base. We designed Comet Crash with both of these elements in mind. Finally, you can send massive swarms of your own troops to wreak havoc on the relentless waves of enemies. Ahhh…sweet revenge!"

"The PlayStation 3 has its own particular flavor of multiplayer games. First-party experiences tend to focus on family-friendly entertainment, while downloadables on the platform like to experiment with various concepts. Sometimes a developer even takes advantage of the system’s 7-controller support! (Just not that often.) Here’s the cream of the crop on the system, including some that should work for any group."
Interesting list... stays away from obvious shooters and the like. SingStar and Fat Princess are great multiplayer games too.
Uncharted 2: Among Thieves, Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception, Kill-Zone 2, Kill-Zone 3, Gran Turismo 5, Little Big Planet, Little Big Planet 2, Journey, Portal 2, Battlefield: Bad Company 2, Battlefield 3, Call Of Duty 4: Modern Warfare.
This is the debut installment of Multitap, writer Graham Russell’s new column about traditional multiplayer and co-op gaming.
There are lots of games out there that let you jump in with your friends and play around. Those can be a heck of a lot of fun. If you’re looking for something a bit more cerebral, though, nothing’s better than a co-op game with some planning and strategy.
SBG: "We’re human. We don’t always get to every game before the end of its year of release. This is our way of making amends: the best games we missed out on until 2011. Because we can’t go back in time and honor them in a more timely fashion."
