Final score=9.1

The PlayStation Network has had quite an amazing year, with spectacular titles hitting the downloadable library month after month. Sony has saved what is easily one of the best for last, however, with Q-Games' PixelJunk Shooter. The studio is no stranger to simple, unique and addictive games, and PixelJunk Shooter not only follows suit perfectly but is also the developer's best work yet.

The concept is very basic. You command a little ship that you fly through caverns, saving endangered miners scattered throughout the levels while fighting various enemies. The control scheme is the now-commonplace dual-analog stick setup -- the left stick moves your ship, while the right stick is used to aim. R1 and R2 shoot, while L1 and L2 use your grappling hook. The whole thing is 2D in setup, making the total package simple to pick up and start playing immediately.
