New This Week: Games Worth The Cash, Or At Least A Rental
June 16, 2008
This week we’ve got the all-handheld edition.
Space Invaders Extreme
PSP, DS
On sale: June 17
Space Invaders hit the coin-op scene back in 1978 with monotone graphics and three space yeti’s throwing and overhand left on the cabinet art. Since then a few things have changed. For the 30th anniversary edition Taito/Square Enix have changed up the graphics, thrown in power-ups, mini games and, of course taken out the need for quarters. Hopefully they threw in a few Invader easter eggs. www.square-enix.com

Secret Agent Clank
PSP
On sale: June 16
Clank’s first solo mission kicks off this week. If you find yourself looking constantly to your left in hopes of seeing a fleeting glance of Ratchet’s tail, start looking for a good co-dependency program. www.us.playstation.com
Arkanoid
DS
On sale: June 17
Square Enix drops some more retro flavor on gamers this week. Sure Arkanoid is basically Pong on steroids and is commonly known as Brick Breaker on any Blackberry but you can’t play either game on your DS. www.square-enix.com
