The first 13 PSP Minis on the Playstation Store
We were beginning to think it was never going to happen but, just like that, the PSP Go has arrived and, with it, the much anticipated PSP Minis.
There are 13 to choose from as of today, expected to grow to 50 by the end of the year. Each is no larger than 100MB and all are under £4. So far, this is how they line up:
Alien Havoc
Old school action as you take on the role of an alien running round the mid-west and rounding up cattle to take on board your space ship and fly away with. Plenty of levels of fun throwing vegetables at the angry farmers trying to stop you.
Bloons
It might not be as enjoyable to do it for real but there's an old equation that rings true for this game: Balloons + Darts = Destruction + Fun. Essentially, burst as many as you can and look out for special weapons.
Brainpipe
Wander through the inner workings of your very own mind in your search to transcend human existence. When you're not focusing on the over-arching storyline, however, just enjoy a shoot bit of platform arcade action.
Breakquest
100 levels of vintage Archanoid-style blockbusting action featuring a glut of power ups and weaponry for a new generation.
Fieldrunners
Heavily popular, heavy artillery tower defence game as played by thousands on the iPhone OS. Choose from a range of weaponry and different tower types to vanquish invaders across a series of levels.
Fortix
Besiege the castle and the waiting dragons with power catapults and troops of all sorts as you battle to take back your ancestors' land.
Funky Punch
3D fighting game where dancing recharges your energy. Don't ask. Just play.
Hero of Sparta
Hack and slash your way through this ancient Greek 3D action adventure as King Argos and wreak your hideous revenge with an assortment of weaponry at whoever gets in your way.
Kahoots
Very much in the spirit of Lemmings, guide your little guys around from A to B by turning over blocks and putting in special spring-loaded bricks and other types of terrain.
Pinball Dreaming: Dreams
Silver ball classic from the Amiga days as ported onto the iPhone and now PSP Go too.
Puzzle Scape
Arrange, re-sort and align coloured bricks which when placed correctly will explode. Hmm, sound familiar?
Tetris
Which cave have you been living in?
Vempire
Debuting on the PSP platform is this puzzle game with a strategy twist. Collected artefacts and minios to be used during the gameplay in the quest to become king of the monster empire.
