If you missed the original version on the PS3 and you want a musically-inspired shooter to play on the road, Everyday Shooter is just fine. The port runs well and the controls -- while a bit awkward due to the loss of the two analog sticks -- function well enough because of Everyday Shooter's angular mechanics. IGN would still recommend the PS3 version over the PSP version, especially because playing on such a small screen can make seeing pixel-sized enemies a colossal chore, but the portable release is still worth the ten dollars.
