Let's get something straight. Nucleus is a challenging experience, a diamond-hard Robotron-style shooter that shows the typical player absolutely no mercy whatsoever. It's a cackling, lightning-spewing Emperor Palpatine of a game and the chances are that you will be its snivelling, wailing, charbroiled Luke Skywalker. I've come to think of it as a spiritual successor to the 80s coin-op shooters that effortlessly annihilated all but the most freakishly gifted players, a game that has relentless demonstrated maximum domination over my meagre SixAxis skills in the two months it's been lurking on my PS3 hard disk.
