The last game in the Patapon series is arguably its weakest, but controlling an army of angry black squidges using timed button presses is mesmerising. The highlight next month for me though is another Rhythm game – Patapon 3. It sounds weird as hell, but it’s also fun – and worth a shot. The other PS3 game is Retro/Grade, a pretty damned clever shoot em up that has you playing a shoot em up in reverse…as a rhythm game. If you’d like a slice of Japanese life, the Yakuza series is a great way to get that. It features five pretty distinct locales based on Japan’s biggest regions – like Osaka, Shinjuku and Sakae. I’m a big fan of the underappreciated Yakuza games that put you in the shoes of a Japanese criminal gone good – along with some other, not so good characters. The PlayStation 3 gets some pretty good stuff too. If you want a space adventure, it could be just the thing you’re looking for. Next up is Rebel Galaxy, a swashbuckling space pirate adventure that’s more than a little reminiscent of Firefly – and also echoes games like Freelancer. It’s a bit of a multiplayer Tetris game that utilises actual physics and wizardly powers to mix things up. First up on PlayStation 4 is Tricky Towers, a game we reviewed yesterday. Furi was relatively interesting game that was all about boss battles, but Saint’s Row: Gat out of Hell was a perfect example of how too much of a good thing isn’t a good thing at all.Īugust’s games? They’re well, they’re okay too. Last month’s games were…well, they were just okay. Another month, another collection of games are set to enter the PlayStation Instant Game Collection as a freebie for subscribers.
