For the PS3-deficient amongst you, you've got a second chance to play ... nay, experience Jonathan Mak's procedurally generated musical shooter, Everyday Shooter. If you've got a Windows PC, Valve's Steam client, and an unused $10 bill, you could show up to this rock party a measly seven months late. Let's see if it can prove to be as popular as Steam's other indie audio title, Audiosurf.

I have a PS3; would anyone recommend this over Super Stardust HD? I'm really considering picking it up.

It's interesting, but not even close to as fun as SSHD.

I like it much much better than SSHD. Personally I thought SSHD grew old really quickly.

SSHD is more of a shooter is than Everyday Shooter (which is more based around the music than the actual shooting component), so it depends on what you're looking for. I say just get both, but get ES over SSHD if you have to choose (then again, I just don't like SSHD, while ES is one of my favorite downloadable console games; it's easily the best thing on PSN, and better than a lot of the stuff on XBLM).

Technically you can. The music is controlled when you shoot at enemies.

The answer is no, you can't. You can't pick audio files off your hard drive and play to them. Each level has a set song, but what when and how you shoot does play into the music.

Naw, I think I'll skip on this one. The indie scene is full of free and better games similar to this.

Hunt always dismisses anything related to the ps3 offhand. Even if he's never played it, which usually he hasn't.

Not really, the indie scene is full of worthless crap games like Satan Sam and Tormishire.
Everyday Shooter is actually good, so for the people that don't have a PS3 and like twin stick shooters they should give it a try on their PCs.

Huh? Anyways serially go check out what Cactus used to produce. Not into my bullet hell shooters but I had a lot more fun with Clean Asia than this.

Well i've been waiting for this for a while, and i'm happy to see they followed through. It looks very interesting, and has good reviews, and its only 10 dollars.

Massively overrated.
I bought this for PS3 when they put it on sale for $5, figuring I couldn't go wrong with the low price and great reviews. I was wrong. This is one of the most boring shooters around, with some very tame action and strange controls (the stick you use for shooting acts more digital than analog).
If you could play a demo of this game I guarantee you wouldn't want to buy it.
