PSP Game Download: Contra 4

News Update: Contra 4 comes to PSP

(Virgin.Net UK - 22 June 2007) Marking the 20th anniversary of the action franchise, 'Contra 4' (working title) for the Nintendo DS claims to push 2D side-scrolling action in a new direction.

'Contra 4' takes place two years after the events of 'Contra III: The Alien Wars'. After saving earth from invasion by Red Falcon, Bill Rizer and Lance Bean are confronted with a new extraterrestrial menace: the terrifying Black Viper. Joined by hard-boiled mercenaries Mad Dog and Scorpion, the warriors must once again wage war against an entire army of invaders.
Players jump, shoot, and dodge oncoming hazards and, utilising a new dual screen presentation, the action spans both screens of the Nintendo DS, giving players the opportunity to battle across expansive environment, and allowing for massive boss battles.

A first for the series, 'Contra 4' introduces a grappling hook accessory that lets players grab onto elements of the environment directly above them. Continuing the multiplayer tradition of previous games, 'Contra 4' lets two players battle together against Black Viper's army.
'Contra 4' is planned for release on the Nintendo DS in 2007.

(Can't wait to get hold of the game...)

PSP Games: Manhunt 2 PSP suspended

News From www.pocketgamer.co.uk:

Manhunt 2 PSP suspended

Publisher scraps plans to distribute game

Product:	Manhunt 2
Developer:	Rockstar Leeds
Publisher:	Rockstar
Genre:	Action, Fighting, Hardcore
by João Diniz Sanches

Take-Two has stated its intention to suspend the distribution of Manhunt 2 on July 10th, the date the game was scheduled to appear.

"Take-Two Interactive Software has temporarily suspended plans to distribute Manhunt 2 for the Wii or PlayStation platforms while it reviews its options with regard to the recent decisions made by the BBFC and ESRB," reads an official Take-Two written statement.

"We continue to stand behind this extraordinary game. We believe in freedom of creative expression, as well as responsible marketing, both of which are essential to our business of making great entertainment."

This outcome is hardly surprising given the BBFC and Irish Film Censor's Offices bans earlier this week, along with the 'Adults Only' US rating which effectively prevented the title to be published on PlayStation and Nintendo platforms.

The option to appeal the classification boards' decisions remains open to the publisher for a while longer, although at this stage the more realistic approach would presumably be to rework the game content for a subsequent resubmission.

The exposure the game has recently received certainly wouldn't hurt sales, after all.
