PixelJunk Racers 2nd Lap due this spring, Monsters on UMD photo

As announced on the PlayStation Blog by Dylan Cuthbert of Q-Games, PixelJunk Racers 2nd Lap is getting a spring release on PlayStation Network. To be frank, it's not really my style of game, but I am glad to see it getting made. I'm happy for you guys who are happy about Racers, if that makes any sense.

As for the second part of the headline, Cuthbert also brought word of an impending UMD release for PixelJunk Monsters Deluxe; admittedly, it would have been cooler if "monsters" (Ghoulies, Mothra, It, etc) got together to come out with a UMD. *shakes fist at misleading character limit*

I've probably put more time into Monsters Deluxe than just about anything else released on PSP in the last year or two. You can expect to see it in stores for $19.99 starting April 27. If you haven't downloaded the game from PSN yet, it comes highly recommended.

Ah, this reminds me of a simpler time, a time when you and 3 friends could race cows around a isometric psuedo-3d racetrack - good times.

You get a cookie if you can name that game and what platform it was on.

Racers always struck me as an homage to Super Sprint for the arcade. The first one really could have used some online multiplayer and leader boards of some sort, hopefully the second version does or adds some variety.
