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!

Titan Invasion collection to tower over the Vita

Curve Digital continues to bring the goods to the Vita (and PS3 and PS4) with two games for the cross-buy price of one. The Titan Invasion collection includes two titles from UK developer Puppygames, sporting both Titan Attacks! and Revenge of the Titans.



Titan Attacks! is a straight-up, highly polished arcade action title inspired by games like Space Invaders and Galaga, but with many modern features including a full ship upgrade system, online leaderboards and stylish, neo-retro visuals.

Revenge of the Titans keeps the frantic action and the distinctive visual style, but expands the game into a unique mash-up of RTS and Tower Defence, including over 25 different types of buildings and a deep upgrade system as players progress through 50 challenging levels. Sounds fun, can't wait to see more
