PixelJunk Racers: 2nd Lap listed by the ESRB

PixelJunk Racers

The ESRB’s listed PixelJunk Racers: 2nd Lap for PS3.

The listing, which is rated an E, doesn’t confirm if it’s a sequel, an expansion in a similar vein to Monsters or Eden or a spin-off to the original, which was first released in 2007.

If it’s a sequel, it’s not the only one in development at Q Games.

Boss Dylan Cuthbert said recently that PixelJunk Shooter 2 is in the works.

Looks as though these two games may be the way forward for Q. The studio hinted to VG247 during a January visit to the studio by Nathan Grayson that the much-talked about development of PixelJunk Dungeons may never see the light of day.

Not At All, Monsters Was A RTS Which Are The Worst, Where As Eden Was Just A Flat Out Dull Boring Game, Racers Was A Party Game That Could At Least Be Fun To Play, Where As Shooter Is The Only Actual “Good” PJ Game.

Monsters wasn’t an RTS.

While I never played Monsters (I do know enough that it was never an RTS), Eden was fantastic. End of.

“lnspired by the popular and addictive “tower defense” genre, PixelJunk Monsters takes the simple real-time strategy concept of building, researching and base defending and presents it in a uniquely attractive style. With meticulously hand-drawn 2D art, PixelJunk Monsters recreates the look of a classic with crisp graphics designed for optimal viewing in Full 1080p HD.”

Yeah if you are going to pigeon hole PJMonsters it is an RTS.

I find myself in the uncomfortable position of agreeing with RGW1982 again ;) . PJRacers is a nice little title. It is a bit too tough but there is a lot to it in terms of interesting modes and different ways to play the core mechanic of slot racing.
