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! But he's had the energy and drive to do something about it, and met the right people to get the job done!  What first got you interested in Vectrex and what spawned the idea of a Mini version? I’ve always been passionate about retro-gaming, but my first love was computers rather than consoles — the ZX81, then the Commodore 128.

Japan gets a free-to-play RPG from Tri-Ace, Judas Code

Tri-Ace, the folks behind the Star Ocean series and busy make Phantasy Star Nova with Sega, are bringing a new RPG card battler to the Vita, Judas Code, for Japan. A free-to-play effort, set during World War III which was triggered by a 2001: Space Odyssey-like Pillar, Longinus,  that has desolated our world.

That sounds pretty harsh, and survival is now the aim of the game, with Judas Code offering both single exploration and MP card-battle action.  Very light on details so far, and no stories off the Japanese sites, but a summer release is mentioned, making this pretty much a near-finished project, so expect lots of imagery and videos to follow.

Hopefully it'll stray outside the usual free-to-play fodder and offer something a little more in-depth and distinct.

UPDATE: Pics has turned up on the Japanese sites and it looks pretty damn hot... a cover based shooter action game that looks just a little bit Third Birthday (to me).
