Alien Breed: Impact Invading PSN, Steam This Summer
Alien Breed: ImpactIf you've always had a thing for the "Aliens" franchise, be it movie or video game, you'll definitely want to go on the rampage this summer.
According to GameSpot, Team17 has announced that Alien Breed: Impact will finally come to the PlayStation 3 and PC this summer, after debuting last year on Xbox Live Arcade. The good news is that this fresh version will boast a host of upgrades, which includes deeper customization and improved cooperative play. Players will also be able to upgrade their weapons with the cash they get from looting corpses and lockers, so there's plenty of incentive to lay waste to huge hordes of invading offenders. If you're not quite familiar, the Alien Breed series actually began way back in 1991 on the Amiga; in those days, it was a top-down action title, which seemed to go over well with gamers of the time. Afterwards, Team17 turned it into a first-person shooter and then shifted their focus to the popular - yet very different - Worms franchise. But they just couldn't leave those aliens alone and although we're not talking about a big-budget $60 blockbuster, Impact should prove to be a solid addition to the PlayStation Network and Steam.
Come to think of it, we haven't seen a must-download PSN title for a few months now; we're starting to feel a bit of a drought. I think we need thatgamecompany to unveil their project soon...

It's all those "final" over-powering "big boss" battles that the PS3 annihilates them with, that DOES!

"Sony Online Entertainment recently signed a deal with Rockin' Android to bring three shmups (shoot 'em ups) exclusively to the PlayStation Network: Gundemonium Recollection, GundeadGline and Hitogata Happa."

I really wouldn't mind if Death Smiles came to PSN. Hell I would love it if Einhander was put on PSN. I'm still waiting for Komami to put something out about the next Gradius. Gradius V was so much fun.
So many many shmups, so little time.

Anyways, not interested in games made for the xbox and altered for the PS3. For the most part at least. If Sony continues to come out with great exclusives, I will have no problem playing exclusively exclusives =)

Do these devs know that xbots will buy junk as long as they get it first?
