PSP Mini titles are hit and - more often - miss, but when they strike a chord they're completely worthwhile purchases - they're playable on both your PSP and PS3. Futurlab makes PSP mini games, but it seems they have used all their creativity coming up with game ideas so they can't decide on a name.
Their new game is a vertically scrolling shmup with a twist - your mission is to save others from a massive black hole using your experimental teleporting technology. Other details about the game are scarce, but the good news is that the game naming competition isn't one of those lame 'US only' deals - head over and try to name the game and if you succeed you'll be featured somewhere in the game, get a copy and score some other swag they haven't envisaged yet.

Valkyria Chronicles one was a very popular PS3 game amongst the anime types, and it looks like the shift down to PSP hasn't really changed things that much!
The game came out last week for the PSP - head through to read Limimi's full review now!

The first reaction many had when they saw retired NBA superstar Michael Jordan - arguably the greatest player of all time - was appearing on the cover of 2K Sports' NBA2K11 was: "how will that work in-game?"
After all - depending on how closely you follow the NBA, Jordan played in two generational mentalities ago, being succeeded by the baggy shorts, streetball/get paid style espoused by Allen Iverson and Kobe Bryant, and moving onto the current superteam ethos repped by the likes of MVP Lebron James.

Easily one of the biggest WTF moments of this year's E3 show was at the end of the Ubisoft press briefing. We thought when company head Yves "Smooth Criminal" Guillemot started talking about a major talent who'd been lost in the past year, the rumours about Assassin's Creed creator Patrice Desilets leaving Ubi might have been true. But that wasn't what Guillemot was referring to. Instead, a bunch of dancers hit the stage and started dancing to a Michael Jackson song.
Apart from the obvious message that Ubi had secured the rights to the Michael Jackson name (and presumably his music) we didn't really know what to think. Now in an interview with games site VG247, Ubisoft brand manager Felicia Williams revealed more: (Continues) Posted 02:13am 10/06/10 by: kreese

Trade outlet MCV has secured a rather interesting quote from Sony Computer Entertainment Europe head, Andrew House.
When asked about the performance of the PSPGo handheld, House asserted it was akin to a test run for digital distribution: (Continues) Posted 01:54pm 07/06/10 by: Joaby

Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker isn't just about the co-op gaming and balls-to-the-wall crazy plotlines - it's also about the product placement and the convenient tie-ins!
All sarcasm aside, Sony and Mindscape have just announced that next Thursday they will be releasing the "Limited Edition W Series Walkman with KONAMI’s ‘METAL GEAR SOLID: PEACE WALKER’ PSP® Game" at the Sony Style store (online). And they're only releasing 50 of them. The camo print Walkman is water-resistant and washable, so you can wear it should you find that someday you walk in the rain... someday, you feed on a tree frog... Posted 09:10am 04/06/10 by: Joaby

If you pick up a PSPGo from the 10th of June (or since April 1 2010) you'll be rewarded with 10 free games, straight up. The games are pretty good too, with GTA: Vice City Stories, MotorStorm Arctic Edge and Wipeout Pure in the mix.
The way it works is actually similar to the deal available on launch of the PSPGo - when you start your new PSPGo up, head to the PlayStation Store and get your free theme using your PlayStation Network account. They'll then (if it's like with the launch PSPGo, eventually) send you a code which allows you to start downloading your 10 free games. Posted 04:01am 17/04/10 by: kreese

It's times like these we wish our Japanese was better. Or even: if we could read it at all.
The image below is a screengrab from Hideo Kojima's twitter account. The great man loves communicating through the medium, apparently - and evidently does so a lot. (Continues) Posted 10:27am 12/02/10 by: Joaby

This week on The GAP we go crazy and bust out our longest podcast yet - to make up for last week's short clash of the titans. We kick things off with a look at the relationships in Pac-Man before moving on to the Super Bowl, Metro 2033, Sins of a Solar Empire (and Master of Orion) and of course the BioShock series.
In the news and discussions we talk Nintendo's lock-down efforts, Sonic fan-fiction, AVP Classic MP and we discuss the price of games as related to the length. As always The GAP has a strong language warning. You can download it from our files library or subscribe to us on iTunes - if you're worried about your cap though, the iTunes podcast sync is a metered download. Posted 04:30pm 10/02/10 by: Joaby

Now that The GAP is kicking arse on iTunes we decided to do the ultimate collaboration - we teamed up with another prominent Aussie podcast and created a Mash-Up ep! To pad out the sides we invited Jeremy Junglist Ray to support GA - alongside Heath and myself - and Guy Yug Blomberg to lead the AG team, alongside Jae and Luke!
We talk talk Command & Conquer 4 and Battlefield Bad Company 2 Beta�s, Metro 2033, Mass Effect 2, iPad and more! And because it's a short episode - only 1 hour long - we don't even touch the discussion topics, though we'll hit them up in the coming weeks. You can download the latest episode from our files library or subscribe to The GAP on iTunes - where we're currently the number one video game podcast! Remember, The GAP has a strong language warning and if you do download it from iTunes it's not unmetered for BP users!
