Upcoming PSN titles – Super Stardust HD and Snakeball

PlayStation 3 owners are in for a lot of fun this summer as ThreeSpeech, the semi-official Sony blog released screenshots and info regarding two titles coming to the PlayStation Network.

First off is Housemarque‘s Super Stardust HD. Gameplay is awfully familiar to those who played the arcades and is pretty simple as well. Blast asteroids into smithereens and take the hordes of enemies sent by the nefarious Professor Schaumund. The downloadable title’s graphics are true to HD at 1080p. It also features three gameplay modes (including two player co-op) and online leader rankings.

Next is Snakeball. Think of it as the simple Snake game on steroids. Lots of steroids. The game has a grid-like arena where the hoversnakes and their riders (who look suspiciously like Bomberman) slug it out with weapons and tail whips. Three gameplay modes include a one player mode (where you feed the snake and let it grow as long as possible), challenge mode (take to the arenas), and online mode of up to eight players at a time.

Both titles will hit the PS3’s online store this Summer, according to ThreeSpeech – possibly June and July. So as the waiting game starts, do you think these titles will give justice to the purchase? Check out the screenshots and tell us what you think.

The Snakeball screens come after the jump!
