Nucleus gets some hands-on time...

The fine folks at Pro-G pulled a few strings, paid a few bribes and have published an exclusive preview of the PlayStation Network game, Nucleus. Dubbed as a "biological two-stick shooter," Nucleus looks like a cross between flOw and Geometry Wars... which means that this game is two things: 1) it's old-school and 2) it's hard!

"Nucleus is clearly a fairly complicated shmup, and juggling the various dynamics of the game can be trying at times. Building defences while dodging enemy fire, targeting rivals, weaving through closing gaps and gathering the spores is overwhelming to say the least, but when everything clicks it can be immeasurably satisfying."

While this one looks like it borrows liberally from those that came before it, it also looks like a must have. Look for our review soon.
