PSP nabs Powerstone Collection!
What better way to show some love to the PSP than releasing a new
version of the hallowed niche fighter for Sony's little portabnle
wonder? Though it may never have cracked the mainstream, Dreamcast
owners and Arcade Junkies will no doubt understand the joy of the
arena-style fighter.
Powerstone is a fighting game, so the main goal is, expectedly, to kick
the crap out of your opponent. What makes it different is the
free-roaming nature of the gameplay (you aren't restricted to always
facing the enemy), the ability to collect power-up gems, and the
interactive environments. With up the 3 other players, the chaos can be
astounding.
The collection will feature both Power Stone one (2 players)
and Power Stone 2 (up to 4 players), playable in ad-hoc online mode
using only one UMD. That way you can still play it with your cheapskate
buddies. It also features several tweaks, new weapons, new stages, a
camera mode, and plenty of unlockables to round out the package. Some
may say the PSP is still receiving too many ports, but at the very
least, it's getting updates to classic games that never got much of a
chance in the first place, like Powerstone. Check out the screenshots
of this swank collection here.
