After last week’s deluge of tasty titles, you could be forgiven for thinking that this week’s roster of PlayStation releases may be a little thin on the ground – but it’s surprisingly stacked for the days prior to Thanksgiving. Granted, there are no major blockbusters vying for your attention here, but we reckon that the likes of Geometry Wars 3: Dimensions and Akiba’s Trip: Undead & Undressed are more than worthy of your attention for a moment or two. Let’s get down to business.
Pick of the Week: Geometry Wars 3: Dimensions
The poster child of the Xbox Live Arcade, we were made to feel like peasants for not having access to Geometry Wars on the PlayStation 3. To be honest, we always thought that Super Stardust HD was the better of the two dual joystick shooters, but that doesn’t mean that we’re not excited about Geometry Wars 3: Dimensions making its way to Sony’s systems this week – even if it does appear to have taken a little inspiration from Housemarque’s aforementioned intergalactic smash.
With series creator Bizarre Creations sadly now defunct, British startup Lucid Games has been tasked with reviving the brand. And it’s opted to do that by placing the action on three-dimensional battlegrounds, all while retaining the electrifying entertainment of the original. A complete single player campaign will be complemented by four-player local and eight-player online multiplayer, while there’ll be PlayStation exclusive levels based upon the DualShock’s iconic face buttons.

Who's buying Geometry Wars, then? Make sure you add me on PSN - I need scores to beat (or more likely, cry over).
My option wasn't on the list, Smash bros on Wii U.
I know this is a Playstation site, but I've been waiting so long for it and it's so close now that it's the only game I can think about.
@MoleZandor Haha, that's fair. Enjoy!
Super Smash Bros for Wii ....... oh!
@get2sammyb pre-ordered, love these type of games
I've preordered geometry wars, loved the first two and cannot wait for this to come out. None of my PSN friends seem to go for games like this so feel free to add me. chalkyQUAKER
I'll be buying Geometry Wars, Sammy, but I'm afraid we'll be playing on different platforms.
I loved the 2 previous Geometry Wars games, so I am psyched for the 3rd.
I am a bit concerened about the game having a different developer, though.
Adventure time looks very Zelda like, can't think of a single Zelda like game that's out on Vita so hope to get that (and lbp3 on PS4).
