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 .

Dynasty Warriors 8 gets Vita dedicated features

Remember the Vita's touchscreen? Some games still do! Koei has introduced new intuitive touchscreen controls on the Vita for actions such as calling their faithful steed or activating ‘Rage’ states!


The touchscreen can also be used to select and activate Stratagems, Dynasty Warriors 8’s special skills cards collection, allowing the player faster and more accurate control of the battlefield.

 

Since even the most powerful Warriors might need a helping hand, it also offers two-player ad hoc co-op to help survive the fierce battles of ‘Empire Mode’, or overcome the challenging scenarios in ‘Free Mode’. The game is also PS TV compatible, Cross-Save and Cross-Play for the big screen editions.


Early buyers also get (via PSN within first month from release) a ‘Special Edit Parts’ pack, includes equipment and costumes based on fan favourite characters.
