Vectrex Mini interview - David Oghia talks up the nostalgic vector powerhouse

Having been wowed by the news of the Vectrex Mini at Gamescom , I rushed off some questions to VectrexOn's main man  David Oghia .

Samurai Beatdown coming to PlayStation Mobile from Beatnik

Beatnik is a UK developer whose Plain Sight, was a gorgeous robotic combat title on Steam. Samurai Beatdown is a little less refined, mixing rhythm action and hitting people with sticks. In it, you hack and slash your way with deadly rhythmic accuracy through levels in what will be a constantly updated and expanding Musical Brawler!
