If manic shooting's your thing (and why wouldn't it be?), then you may want to keep your sights pointed at Astro Tripper, the latest from Mutant Storm dev PopPom Games. The game is set to blast a hole right through Europe's PSN on December 11, with a US release promised to follow.
No price has been announced for the game, which is based on PomPom's 2001 release, Space Tripper (itself an homage to Defender). What we do know is that the side-scrolling shmup will feature Trophies, unlockables and will likely melt your feeble eyes with its 1080p graphics.
