Fatal Inertia EX on PSN next week

The PS3's downloadable version of a 360 racer that came out a year ago will be out on PSN June 19, developer Koei has confirmed.

Fatal Inertiais a bit like Star Wars pod racing through rocky canyons, only with magnet guns and lots of framerate issues. It didn't exactly set the world on fire on Xbox 360, but it looked okay and based on thesenew screenshots, EX will look even better.

EXsports "new features and gameplay tweaks," says Koei, including changes to the game's difficulty which was said to be too high in the 360 version.

There's atraining venue with eight new tracks that should help rookie racers, and on the other end there's a Master difficulty level for those who like to punch a hole in the side of the couch.

Check out what we thoughthere.
