Soldner X-2 arriving on PS3 May 25th photo

I go for a good shoot-em-up now and again. I'm awful. Laughably bad, even. Blind monkeys are probably better shmup players than I am. Yet I always get that itch to embarrass myself -- to myself, mind, as I'd never carry on like this in public.

Soldner X-2 is the sequel to, well, Soldner X. They are shmups, which means that they will inevitably crush my spirit. It has been announced by developer eastasiasoft that Soldner X-2 is coming out on PlayStation Network on May 25th in North America (priced at $12.99), followed up by Europe the next day (€12.99/ £9.99). 

Check out the massive gallery of screenshots we were sent for the game. Looks like fun to me.

While I'm fully aware that Soldner X was far from being a great shmup (My God, the second level was harder than any of the levels that came after it), I'll still be buying this as soon as it drops.

Yeah, hopefully this one is less ridiculously/unfairly hard than the first one.

I'm so glad it's going to be released on PS3! My computer can't handle this game.

I can only play coin-op shmups because I can keep putting in quarters to move forward instead of using up all my lives and having to start all the way over. That said, I may still buy this.

Excellent read, I just passed this onto a colleague who was doing a little research on that. And he actually bought me lunch because I found it for him smile So let me rephrase that: Thanks for lunch!

The PS3 has alot of games coming out soon. I'm surprised at the reviews, they aren't up to par.
