Last year, the makers of Soldner-X: Himmelssturmer, Eastasiasoft, gave me a peek at their side-scrolling shooter, and I was blown away. I saw it running on a laptop, played with an Xbox 360 controller. These impressions hit me in this order:
- wow, this game is beautiful
- wow, this looks hard
- wow, this needs to be on the PSN and Live.
It was released for PC last year, and is still available. And now there’s a pretty good chance that this title will reach the PlayStation Network. Gaming Bits noticed a single picture of Soldner-X on the US PlayStation Web site, which is a pretty good indicator. I don’t think it’s that much of a mystery; the Soldner-X home page has a PlayStation 3 version listed as “TBA 2008.” Oh, and now the game has an official PlayStation page of its own.
Still, they give us no details. I’m looking forward to getting my hands on a PSN version of this high-definition, 60FPS-sporting, beautiful looking and sounding shooter.
Check out screenshots from the PC version here.
What do you think? Are you interested in this? Are you down for some co-op shooting?
