Games Of September 2014
With September just around the corner, let’s have look at the games of September 2014. It’s of course expected that Sony would unveil next month’s free game line-up. Unfortunately, it seems that this month is a bit of a disappointment, as the games seem randomly plucked from the Store, especially HOARD. That said, whether you’ve played games such as Battle Royale or Joe Danger before or not, it doesn’t matter; they’re all entertaining experiences, and at the low price of free, I’m not one to hold a grudge.

Velocity 2X (PS4, Vita)
“Use the Quarp Drive teleport to outsmart the evil Vokh in race-tuned space combat, then dock your ship, jump out and continue the fight on foot! Velocity 2X is the visually dazzling action-packed sequel to Velocity Ultra, featuring amazing puzzle-platforming action alongside award-winning shooter gameplay!” This is our first pick for the games of September 2014.

Sportsfriends (PS4, PS3)
“Sportsfriends is a compendium of award-winning local multiplayer games for living rooms, parties, and even backyards. This is the reason it is second on the list of the games of September 2014. Featuring: retro-styled fighting game BaraBariBall, QWOP-like pole vault dueling game Super Pole Riders, high-velocity sports game Hokra, and face-to-face physical party game Johann Sebastian Joust. All the games are playable with the DualShock®4 wireless controller, while Johann Sebastian Joust can be further enhanced by the PlayStation Move Motion Controller (sold separately).“

Playstation All Stars Battle Royale (PS3, Vita)
The third in the list of the games of September 2014, “From Kratos to Sly Cooper, Sweet Tooth to Parappa the Rapper, Sony characters from all over the gaming spectrum are brought together in a fighting adventure that’s both easy to play and hard to master. Take the battle online for competitive multiplayer action, or go head to head with a group of friends on the couch and prove once and for all who’s really the best!”

HOARD (PS3)
“HOARD is an innovative fast-paced arcade action-strategy title from Big Sandwich Games that puts you in control of conquering a medieval kingdom. Your goal is to build a giant pile of gold to sleep on in your lair. YOU ARE THE DRAGON: Scare villages! Burn castles! Collect treasure! Roast pesky knights and thieves! Compete or co-operate with other dragons in epic multiplayer battles!”
-
Joe Danger (Vita)
“Take Joe on a ride from zero to hero in a game that lives up to its big brother with no compromises. Eye-popping super-smooth 60FPS graphics use only the very brightest colors on Vita’s lovely screen, and we’ve revamped the JD control scheme so it plays just as nicely, too, including touch controls for the editor modes!”

TxK (Vita)
“Glowing vectors, explosive particle effects, and a pulse-pounding soundtrack are core elements of many modern arcade shooters – a style that Llamasoft defined with its seminal 90s tube shooter. TxK is the spiritual successor to that genre-defining work and brings you 100 levels of engrossing score-chasing gameplay, married to an outstanding soundtrack that will have your head nodding as you blast your way onto the scoreboards.” It is the last pick for the games of September 2014.
