Launching today as a PlayStation Minis (PS Minis) title, Velocity is a scrolling shoot-‘em-up with a difference. While the screenshots may tell you that you’ll fight patterns of enemies in formation and travel through a retro styled science-fiction setting, they hide a number of more innovative mechanics. Velocity may be set to be delivered as a diminutive downloadable package, but there’s nothing small about its ideas.

The successful series of Fighting Fantasy novels, created by Steve Jackson and Ian Livingstone, is seeing somewhat of a resurgence of late. Thanks to the coming of age of digital distribution services, the interactive novella has found a new home amongst the digital interactive media, first on iOS devices and now having arrived on the PlayStation Store as a Minis title. Compatible with both PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Portable (PSP), Fighting Fantasy: Talisman of Death is an interesting reinterpretation of that very first Fighting Fantasy publication, and not in the way you might be expecting.
The latest title to arrive from Nordcurrent, Monochrome Racing, is available now as a downloadable WiiWare title on Wii, and as a Minis title for PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Portable (PSP). A pocket money price tag and platform ambiguity means that many gamers have been looking at Monochrome Racing with a great deal of interest, suggesting that the pick-up-and-play nature of the game may be perfect for less experienced players, but in reality it’s a game designed for those who have been playing for many years, with fond memories of the classics of the 16-bit era.
