Better late than never?  Ion Assault HD, a very nice looking twin stick shooter, is coming to the PlayStation Network.  It debuted  on the Xbox LIVE Arcade over two years ago, Steam last year, and it's finally making the jump to Sony's big black box.  We liked the game back then, giving it a 4 out of 5 in our Co-Op Review.  The game will actually be called Ion Assault HD, but it will offer more than just high definition.  The PSN version will feature a new location and six extra levels.  The entire campaign can be played with a friend.  Check out the following trailer for a taste of eye candy.

Ion Assault can be described as a very unique and beautiful take on the classic Asteroids arcade games. Movement and visuals are updated, as is the variety of obstacles you'll encounter. Although relatively short, Ion Assault features 2-player co-op support throughout the campaign, plus a 4-player competitive mode. How does it add up? We explore deep space for the review.

Last week we thought we had two co-op games on the Xbox Live Arcade, when in fact there was only one.  This week we're pretty confident that we have three co-op titles making their way to the Xbox 360.  That more than makes up for it in our book.
