Heavy Weapon – Coming to PSN Today!



Posted by Michael Santora // Associate Producer, PopCap Games



Hey everyone, I’m Michael Santora, an Associate Producer from PopCap Games, bringing you all of our titles in association with Sony Online Entertainment. So far, the response to our classic titles, Zuma and Bejeweled 2, has been fantastic, so we’re excited to bring you another favorite, Heavy Weapon.
Having grown up on classic arcade shooters and original game
consoles, Heavy Weapon holds a special place in my heart. It’s a true
shooter game that always reminds me of my youth, pumping quarters into
machines at the local arcade. Heavy Weapon was originally developed on
the PC for Windows, but it’s now found a home on the PLAYSTATION 3.
The DUALSHOCK analog sticks give moving & shooting in independent
directions a more arcade-like feel. Playing survival mode online or
locally with your friends is a great way to earn the “Survive 12
Minutes” Trophy. Multiplayer mode lets you play with up to 3 other
people so you can play with old friends or new ones!


Heavy Weapon fans can enjoy a new feature created exclusively for
the PS3, which is the ability to shoot down and destroy the supply
helicopter as it delivers power ups to you. It makes some of the later
levels a bit more challenging since you have to pay more attention to
your allies while you’re shooting down everything else in the sky.
That’s all for now. We’re working on bringing you Peggle and Feeding Frenzy 2
before the year is out, so keep an eye out for those! I can’t give away
much about Peggle, but I think it’s going to be really cool.
