John-ShepardMinis! Well, you just gotta love the small and the simple; the games that hook you and make you smile.
The PlayStation Minis only launched about 9 months ago, but these bite-size pieces of interactive goodness have already proven to be immensely popular. There are now over 85 games available (yep, 85) and Sony has officially announced that over 1 million Minis have been sold to date. What probably pushed them over the edge was the introduction of the new premium PlayStation Plus service for the PSN; when you sign up, you get Age of Zombies for free. It's sorta like Burn Zombie Burn! and it's quite entertaining; it's also #1 on the Top 10 list.
Senior Director of the PlayStation Network, Susan Panico, said we could expect to see "many more Minis" in the near future, and the program currently has the support of over 50 developers. Everyone can always use a simple distraction from the big blockbusters every now and then, and they even compliment the full downloadable titles available on the PSN. So, have you played your Mini yet…?
