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 . After a post-event, well earned, break, he's kindly given us a lot of detail about the project and some new images of the unit to share.  His story mirrors mine somewhat, Vectrex represents a glowing, unaffordable, obelisk of gaming power from our youth!

A-Men go for a bundle

The Vita's indie launch game and its sequel are now available together (in Europe, US coming January) as a neat bundle for those who link guns and thinking. Bloober Team, the developers behind A-Men and the upcoming Basement Crawl, dropped the PS Vita bundle pack of A-Men 1 & 2 for 12.99 euros.


The series is a nostalgic logic platformer which takes influences from the likes of Lemmings and The Lost Viking with a focus on difficulty and a strong replay value. With both games together this is sure to be the most challenging experience available on PSN. Guide the five characters through many different worlds and expansive levels to get them safely to their helicopter. Every character has special abilities that allow you to approach every challenge in a different way, but we worked very hard to ensure that it did not make the game easy in any way.
