IGN: With the launch of the PlayStation Store for PC (which allows gamers to grab content for home use and for PlayStation Portable), Sony let loose a few surprises that portable gamers might want to check out. In addition to full-fledged games (Wipeout Pure and Gangs of London are both downloadable directly to Memory Stick at reduced prices) and mini-modes (a portion of the multiplayer mode in Syphon Filter: Logan's Shadow is downloadable for those who didn't pick up the full game), there are also trailers for movies and games. And hidden in that trailer section is a brand new game for the PSP titled simply "Beats."
VGC writes: "When Sony first launched the Playstation Store for the PSP they needed to produce titles that would prove that the portable could provide small scale and fun games for a low price. From that objective came Beats, a game that combines the two most used features on the PSP, gaming and music. For the low cost of five dollars, Beats morphs the music library stored on your memory stick into a traditional rhythm game."
The top ten PSP downloads in May, according to the Playstation Pulse.
Its a great game and deserves a lot more than its been given, and should definately be higher compared to some of those games listed.
Pretty damn good game. I see how this would get the top spot.
Yeah-good game that gives a decent challenge without holding your hand at all. It's funny that it should be so high in the d/l this month esp for me as I had to download it the other week as I'd nearly finished it completely and lost the UMD at Xmas-like a nob. And it seems evryone else must have got it on the strength of KZ2 that hadn't picked it up before.
I think uit's pretty underrated as well as being a really good PSP shooter-even if it's got one of the oddest perspectives I've ever seen, not really TPS or top down. I suppose it's a bit like the high angle in GTA CW on DS.
Patapon2 rocks too.
VGR:
"Each game has its own strengths and weaknesses, but put together the Power Pack seems a bit lacking. Having to exit out of the game to change between them is just plain silly; although each game has their moments...the only one I remotely enjoyed was flOw for its quirkiness. Beats seems a bit dull and Syphon Filter Combat Ops gets old after a while, but flOw is the one that's unique, making it the best of the bunch. Should you get the Power Pack? Only if you've never played flOw, otherwise I'd skip it."
the psp is crap anyway
i care
Beats looks dope, I'll be getting it.
I love my psp it can do so much more than my ds
