"PM Studios came into the spotlight this year with DJ Max Fever. Next month they will release Strikers 1945 Plus on PlayStation Network. Beyond that PM Studios has their sights set on HD consoles.
"We are going to release a bunch of stuff," Michael Yum, Executive Producer at PM Studios, told Siliconera in an interview. "We are trying PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360". "
In a surprise reveal this week, Rising Star Games had an unannounced game being shown as part of their booth in the London MCM Comic Con, DJMax Encore for the Nintendo 3DS. As the title suggests, Encore is a return to the original DJMax Portable series for the Sony PSP which launched almost a decade ago (but never officially saw a release in Europe).
Gamertell has posted its weekly column that focuses on notable importable games and game-related products.
This week's Important Importables focuses on Korean music games. From Gamertell:
"If you’re looking for a fairly simple to understand and addictive import game, look no further than Korea. Yes, that’s right, Korea. Some of the easiest to play import games, for people who can’t understand the language, are music games and Korean developers and publishers are known for putting together some pretty great ones."
One of the wonderful things about being isolated in a military camp in the middle of nowhere is that I get a lot of free time to just, well, do absolutely nothing. Of course that's just being inefficient, which is why I always keep my PSP close at hand. Doing so allows me to enjoy a myriad of portable wonders five days a week and one of those wonders includes a humble rhythm game known as DJ Max Portable 2.
DJ Max Portable 2 is by no means a new game, having been released about three years ago in March of 2007. The game was developed by Korean developer Pentavision for the PlayStation Portable and boasts roughly 60 original songs, addicting gameplay, plenty of unlockable items and even a soundtrack mode that I actually use when I get the urge to just enjoy the tunes on the go.
