Point Blank coming on DS

Friday 16 Jun 2006 : 12:21 PM



One of our favourite ever arcade shooting games gets it's DS release in the U.S. today and will hit the UK soon.

For those of you that haven't played the originals, this is a gun game with a difference. It's basically a series of Bishi Bashi/Wario Ware type mini-games played with a gun and it has a fantastic sense of humour.

The good news is that it includes wireless play with a single card , 'free play' so you can play any stage whenever you want and conversions of many of the leves from the classic coin-op versions.

The bad new is that U.S. reviews so far have been a little luke-warm, but we shouldn't have to wait long to find out if they're right or not.

Tuesday 13 Jun 2006 : 11:55 AM



This great gameplay footage from the upcoming Micro Machines v4 was released this morning by Codemasters, along with a few new details.

We're only 17 days away from the June 30th launch date for the Playstation 2, PSP and PC versions, the NIntendo DS version will follow later.

The bad news is that we can't see any mention of online play for any of the versions, here's hoping they'll announce online play for the DS version, this game is crying out for it surely ?
