R-Type Command - アールタイプ タクティクス - Comments

R-Type Command

Shooter to Strategy? This is not quite what I have in mind when I think SRPG set in a space age(See Super Robot Wars). There is gobs of information to examine and extensive gameplay explanations but the usual polish I expect is not that. Pilots are random variables that are put with ships. The game tries to give some personality to the player through the log you keep between missions, even this seems barebones. Compared to most other SRPGs, this is just lackluster. R-Type Command for the PSP is not a poor game, however it does little to show off from the glut of SRPGs that have been pouring out lately.

Flow Swims Over to the PSP Petrie Dish

FlOw screenshot

My favorite game from the Playstation Store finally makes it's way to the smudgy, small screen of my PSP. Flow has been around for awhile now, and I thoroughly enjoyed the experience on the PS3, most notably how the fluid HD visuals worked together with immersive ambient sound design. So relaxing.

Flow on the small screen is bound to lose some of the immersion of it's bigger PS3 brother, but the 4-player ad-hoc feeding-frenzy sounds kinda fun.

It is now available on the Playstation Store. Not sure how much it's gonna set you back yet.
