I recall the trailer of this PSN bound side-scrolling shooter and I thought it didn’t look too bad. I was actually drawn to the game’s soundtrack more than anything else.
Well after many months, it looks like this title is finally hitting PlayStation Network in October of this year.
Here’s the PR spin and some screenshots to boot:
