Q who?
Q Entertainment, wacko!
They are the ingenious developers behind Meteos [DS] and Lumines [PSP], the hit puzzle games released exclusively for the two handheld gaming consoles.
I acquired my own copy of Meteos 2 days ago… and oh boy this is a sweet game! I’ve been playing ever since, and twice, my DS died on me.
The game has lots to offer, be it an intensive single-player mode (Star Run, Single game or Challenges), or the ever popular single-cart multiplayer mode. All the little things they added to the game (catchy songs, draggable menus, statistics, unlockables, etc…), adds so much to the game itself besides the simple, yet effective puzzle style.
I’d personally recommend Meteos to every DS owners who are looking for a good pick-up-and-play game that lasts more than a couple of weeks of gameplay (unlike others).
But wait, there’s more! I didn’t mention Lumines without a reason.
I also got my hands on the Lumines Remixes OST. Featuring a whopping 44 full lenght tunes + bonus tracks, this one is a must for game music fans. I never played Lumines yet, but I tried this clone for PC which is actually quite good, but missing the important part, the original music.
Oh how I wish it could be ported to the DS… seems like a simple game that wouldn’t need much modification to port. At least the PSP users won’t get Meteos anytime soon.
