Hammerin' Hero, the upcoming side-scrolling beat 'em up from Atlus, looks like a breath of fresh air for the PSP system. The Japanese brawler is deeper than your typical arcade action title. Over the course of the game, your character will trek through a mixture of highly varied and exceedingly unpredictable stages as he works to pound sense into an evil construction company, its power-hungry magnate, and its many nefarious henchmen.

ATLUS should get its own PSN Publisher Store if they keep on pumping out games on the PSN. SO far, EA(EA SPORTS), Capcom and R* got their own store.
They should put Demons Souls on the PSN store. It may be a huge, expensive download but it beats never finding a copy of the game.
Play-Asia is now offering Pump It Up EXCEED Portable for free if you purchase a copy of Atlus' fun-looking platformer Hammerin' Hero..

Such was my response when the cashier at my local retailer asked me why I picked up Hammerin' Hero for the PSP, an obscure Japanese title brought over by Atlus. A throwback to the old Hammering Harry titles, the game is a 2.5D platformer touting stylish visuals, a wacky storyline, and an old school difficulty level. Remarkable on some levels and mediocre on others, Hammerin' Hero rises above its obscurity to become a title worth checking out for fans of classic 2D platforming."
This game is super fun, it's one of those quirky games that keep you smiling!
