GDN: Hyperballoid HD Review (PSN)

The game screen is TINY. If you have got a 60 inch TV it won't be a problem. Hell even a 46 inch would do just fine. However, if you're like me and have just a plain old 4:3 20-something inch (maybe 32?) the whole damned screen is blindingly small, especially when the ball splits into 9 smaller balls and they're all miniscule.

Gamer 2.0 Review: Hyperballoid HD

Gamer 2.0 writes: "With a number of games with twists to the brick-breaking formula having appeared on PSN in the past year, it’s surprising to see that nothing more traditional has been released on PSN in the last three years. Hyperballoid HD is the new PS3 iteration of a PC line of Arkanoid clones from Alawar Entertainment, which offers about 100 new levels for just $4.99. While the game is cheap, it does come with some unfortunate issues that keep it from being a perfect purchase for a cheap price."
