Small is beautiful with PlayStation mini-games

Keep your little ones busy with some mini-game gems this festive season.

Looking for some entertainment to while away the wee hours? Then why not try your hand at a host of PlayStation mini-games, arcade style titles only available to play on your PC, to entertain kids and parents alike.

Ratchet & Clank - Race Through Time
Join Clank on a platform adventure where you must guide the little robotic hero to the top of the Great Clock. Don't worry about the tricky obstacles that stand between you and your goal - Clank has the ability to speed up and slow down time. Watch the hours fly by like minutes with this fun mini-game.

EyePet
Take the irresistible EyePet on new adventures with two mini-games. The first is High Flyer, which puts you in the cockpit of a cute toy aeroplane. Fly through a colourful household, collecting balloons which add to your final score and give you bonuses. Keep an eye on your fuel level - otherwise your fancy flying may come to a swift end.

The second min-game is BubbleBother, which challenges your fingers and puzzle solving skills. Direct the different coloured bubbles into the correct jars by drawing lines with your mouse. Watch out as the bubbles get faster, as directing them into the wrong jars loses you points.

There's a third mini-game coming soon, so keep an EyePet eye out.

Invizimals
Can you find the mysterious creatures that can only be seen through your PSP Camera? Practic your hunting skills by playing a mini-game that can win you a new Invizimal for the PSP title, which you can then trade with friends. To earn a free Invizimal, you must capture several of the creatures in the mini-game and then get them to battle. Can you defeat your opponent and claim your Invizimals prize?

MotorStorm Arctic Edge - Avalanche Anarchy
Tear it up in your snowmobile with a bass-heavy soundtrack urging you on - it can only be the off-road mayhem of Avalanche Anarchy. Are you fast enough to race across the mountain track finish line before the avalanche swallows you whole?

Gran Turismo Skills
Have you got what it takes to be a Gran Turismo champion? Gran Turismo Skills revs up eight challenges to test your co-ordination, observation, reactions, memory and knowledge of racing cars. It's the perfect entertainment for parents so why not take GT Skills out for a spin and see how far you can go?
