Description

Lumines II for the PSP system is the highly anticipated sequel to the addictive puzzle-based video game, "Lumines." To play, gamers control colorful squares made of four smaller block pieces that are dropped into the playing field one at a time to form same-color rectangles. The vertical “timeline” sweeps across the playing field from left to right and wipes the same-color rectangles from the playing field. Unmatched blocks pile up, and the game ends when the pile gets to the top of the playing screen. Players advance through many action-packed levels, each with its own musical theme and sound effects. "Lumines II" features a variety of modes including Challenge, Sequencer, Mission, Puzzle, Time Attack and Vs. (both against CPU and two-player -- extra PSP system and game required) as well as 60 skins and 100 puzzles.

"Lumines II" is the first handheld video game with actual music videos from international artists: Beck – “Black Tambourine”; Black Eyed Peas – “Pump It”; The Chemical Brothers – “Star Guitar”; Fatboy Slim – “Gangster Trippin’”; The Go! Team – “Bottle Rocket”; Gwen Stefani – “Hollaback Girl”; Hoobastank – “Born to Lead”; Junior Senior – “Take My Time”; Missy Elliott – “Lose Control”; and New Order – ”Regret.” Tracks by Junkie XL (“Breezer”), Stigmato Inc. (“Reality Check”), Star Casino, Techriders and Ken Ishii are also included.
