Classic Lumines Pack Coming To Lumines Supernova (News)

Feb 11, 2009

Siliconera:

"Mondo Grosso's music hasn't made its way into future releases, but maybe, just maybe, it will sneak into Lumines Supernova. Q Entertainment is working on a Classic Pack which contains 20 skins from the PSP game. A song list, date, and price have not been announced. Check the screenshots at Famitsu and see if you can identify any of the skins. Strangely enough, at one time Lumines II had more music from Mondo Grosso and a song from Korean pop artist BoA. Of course, that version was never released in North America or Japan."

Holiday Buyers' Guide 2006 - PSP (Feature)

Dec 6, 2006

Sony's handheld has gone through some rough patches since its release in early 2005, but it's still the most impressive piece of handheld hardware you can own for less than $300. With its big, high-definition screen and games that approach the PlayStation 2 in terms of visual quality, this is definitely the handheld of choice for players who demand top-notch ...

Lumines II (Review)

Nov 8, 2006

Lumines II wisely commits to walking the trail of enhancement rather than reinvention, refusing to fix what wasn't broken about its predecessor. On the other hand, it knows it had better offer something shiny and new if fans of the original are to find a reason to pick it up. This sequel is as much a companion to the original as a replacement, and just as much of a must-have, if not ...

Every Extend Extra, Lumines II Priced at $29.99 (News)

Aug 13, 2006

Gamestop is currently pricing Every Extend Extra and Lumines II for the PSP at $29.99. This is great news for PSP gamers to have two more-than-likely solid games be priced relatively sanely.

Lumines II single-player hands-on (Preview)

Aug 1, 2006

When we last saw Lumines II at E3, it was basically the same fantastically compelling classic that the first game was, with a couple new bells (animations) and whistles (new tunes) bolted on. Our most recent contact with Tetris' laser-lightshow cousin revealed that the game is still basically the same as we left it... only with dump truck-loads more content than we expected. ...

Lumines II soundtrack revealed (News)

Jul 19, 2006

When Lumines II arrives on the PSP in November, it won't just improve on the experience of the rhythmic falling-block puzzler Lumines. It'll bring something to the table that no other handheld game has: actual music videos playing in the background during gameplay. As of press time, the list of confirmed (and potentially distracting) videos includes: "Black Tambourine" (Beck) "Pump It" (Black Eyed Peas) "Star Guitar" (Chemical Brothers) "Gangster Trippin" (Fatboy Slim) "Bottle Rocket" (The ...

Lumines II for PS3? (News)

Jul 13, 2006

PSP puzzler Lumines II could be getting a PlayStation 3 edition, according to the game's creator, Tetsuya Mizuguchi. Speaking at this week's Develop Conference in Brighton, England, Mizuguchi said that the development team "will be making announcements about the artists and music that we will be working with... I am also very interested in the network situation with PS3". While this can't be called an official confirmation, it does seem as though Mizuguchi has some definite plans for Lumines ...

Lumines II looms into view (News)

May 31, 2006

• Lumines trailer (MOV, 8.24MB) Wednesday 31 May 2006 Buena Vista Games has released a trailer of Lumines II, the sequel to the popular PSP puzzle game which will be out this autumn. The sequel will have the same block arranging format as the original as gamers control squares made of up four smaller coloured blocks. The aim of the game is to arrange these to form same-colour squares which will be wiped away by the timeline that sweeps across the screen. Simple. The incentives to ...

Lumines II (Preview)

May 17, 2006

If you had one of the most hypnotically popular games on the PSP, would you change anything in the sequel or just try to recreate the original gameplay with a couple of added bits? Whatever you answered, the new edition of Lumines aims to do little more than provide the same great time-sucking puzzle game... with a smidgen of new content to maintain freshness (sort of like Sodium Benzoate in Twinkies). The most notable addition to Lumines II is the animation of the backgrounds, which no longer ...

More Lumines, Meteos on the way (News)

Apr 26, 2006

Puzzle-game fans should prepare to make some tough decisions this fall. Buena Vista Games today announced an agreement with Q Entertainment - makers of Lumines and Meteos - to bring no fewer than four new games to the US and Europe. Set to rock the PSP, PlayStation 2 and DS are Lumines II, Lumines Plus, Every Extend Extra and Meteos: Disney Edition. Given that rhythmic block-dropper Lumines (reviewed here) is still one of the PSP's best-selling titles, it's no shocker that Lumines II topped ...
