Minis

Today sees the global launch of the PSP Go!, Sony’s ultra-sleek, pocket sized PSP. Any of you planning on getting one? The most exciting thing about the PSP Go! launch is that PSP Minis launch today too.Hooray! The PSP minis, in case you’re not aware are cheaper, smaller downloadable titles that are perfect for gaming-on-the-go. They’re available on Both regular PSPs as well as their newer counterparts.

PSP Minis looks to do for the PSP exactly what the PSN has done for the PS3 – offer unique, concept-driven games that needn’t be traditionally game-like. Games are priced between £2.49 and £3.99 (R30 and R50), but I’ve forgotten to bring my PSP with me an can’t confirm either local availability or pricing. Any of you out there in Lazygamerland want to log on to the PSN from your PSP’s and let us know?

  • Bloons (Hands-On Mobile) – Pop balloons to solve puzzles.
  • Brainpipe (Hands-On Mobile) – "The ultimate objective is to transcend humanity" by navigating funkadelic tunnels in your head.

  • Fieldrunners (Subatomic Studios) – PSP port of one of the best tower defence games ever, originally seen on iPhone/iPod Touch.
