Pata pata pata pon. Pon pon pata pon. Those are two of the beats that will be hard to remove from your head after playing this quite excellent PSP 2D side scroller from SCE Japan and the creators of LocoRoco.
You control a flag bearer, who can construct chants that will direct an ever-increasing army of, basically, walking eyes. Time it correctly and, as you beat, they shout and respond to the instructions – each combination produces a set effect – and it is possible to move the army through the levels smoothly and flawlessly, racking up a huge combo in the process.
TNS: Even big-name game studios like Bungie and Konami have all tiptoed, or tripped, into art plagiarism territory. Let's take a look at 8 of them
VGChartz's Adam Cartwright: "Despite its somewhat anaemic lineup of backwards-compatible titles (unusual in light of the genre’s strong pedigree on Sony consoles), Vita’s selection of rhythm games is highly impressive in the modern market with genre favourites like DJMax, Hatsune Miku and Taiko no Tatsujin all present and plenty of quirky oddities like Deemo, Love Live & Persona thrown in for good measure. You’re definitely going to need to try your hand at importing to get the most of the genre here, but that shouldn’t be an issue thanks to region-free hardware and easy-to-grasp gameplay."
It seems that Sony is slowly working on bringing select classic titles from its classic consoles back on PlayStation 4 as remasters.
Who’ll be next?
