Over the last several months Fire Hose has obviously been working to refine and polish the title, leading up to its release in early 2011. During that time it was also announced Slam Bolt would be published by Sony Online Entertainment exclusively for the PlayStation Network".
Slam Bolt Scrappers is a strange game. Strange in an interesting way. The basic premise is that you have a building area and your opponent has a building area. You then fight over crates which can be dropped in your own building area in a sort of psuedo-tetris way. When these crates are arranged into square shapes they form turrets that shoot at the other player’s turrets. Oh! And there’s different coloured crates for different types of turrets. Also there’s ninjas and giant robots. Got all that? Good.
