Capcom Puzzle World for the PSP released

Capcom?, a leading worldwide developer and publisher of video games, today released Capcom? Puzzle World for the PSP? (PlayStation?Portable) system. Some of the best puzzle games in console history come together in one collection, including the cult classic Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo?, Block Block, and the three-in-one Buster Bros. Collection. The game is enhanced with wireless multiplayer gameplay via the PSP system?s ad hoc mode for non-stop fun anytime, anyplace with anyone. Capcom Puzzle World is rated "E" for everyone by the ESRB (Entertainment Software Rating Board) and carries a suggested retail price of $29.99.

Capcom Puzzle World provides gem-busting mayhem at its best with the cult hit, Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo. In addition to the renowned Super Puzzle Fighter II: X gem-breaking mode, two new never-before-released-in-the-US gameplay modes will be added. Gamers can also create custom attack patterns in Counter Gem Edit Mode and hone their skills in Training Mode.

Block Block is an innovative twist to the block breaking genre. Released for the arcades in 1990, Block Block features a two player co-op mode, allowing for the cooperative destruction of blocks. Also unique to this title is the constantly shrinking paddle that forces players to finish each level as quickly as possible.

Originally released for the PlayStation? game console, Buster Bros. Collection is a simple, yet extremely challenging puzzle/shooter that gathers Buster Bros., Super Buster Bros. and Buster Buddies. An arcade hit, Buster Bros. has one or two players navigating through more than 50 timed environmental stages, shooting and avoiding an avalanche of giant bubbles. Super Buster Bros. is an updated version of its predecessor, with improved graphics and the inclusion of "Panic Mode" which adds 99 levels of feverish action. Buster Buddies is the most recent version of the series to be released in the arcades, featuring four original characters, different stages and even more bonus items.

All the games in Capcom Puzzle World have been retouched and updated for the PSP system?s 16x9 widescreen aspect ratio. This latest compilation is the first PSP system title to feature a screenshot mode, allowing gamers to take a snapshot of their victory in Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo or any of the Buster Bros. titles. Players can also import personal pictures into Capcom Puzzle World that can be used as game backgrounds for all three Buster Bros. games. Players can also infiltrate other systems by virally uploading high scores onto their opponent?s handheld. With an intuitive ad hoc multiplayer mode, one or two players can face off in gem-breaking pandemonium or team up for frantic bubble-busting fun.
