“Finally, a ‘proper’ PS1 classic.”

The Little Mermaid II isn’t a classic? Creatures: Bred in Space isn’t MORE than a shoddy adaptation of a highly complex PC game? Titles such as Sheep don’t just tug on your nostalgia heartstrings?

Gamers these days, spoilt with their “good games” and “innovative titles.” In my day we had Star Wars: Episode I – The Video Game and were glad to have it!

Vagrant Story was released on the Japanese PSN store for 600 yen, whereas FFVII was released at 1500 yen, so maybe they’ll do something similar in the US/Europe.

I love Metal Gear Solid, it’s one of my favourite games of all time. That said I think it’s bullsh*t to price it at £7.99 when all the other PSone games are half the price! Just because it’s Metal Gear Solid and they know peple want it so badly!

At last. This and vagrant story mark off two of my top ten PSOne games I want to play on my PSP, and they’re both arriving pretty soon too. Shame about the pricing though. I wonder how Square-Enix will price Vagrant Story come to that… 7.99 isn’t really going to sit well for an obscure title like that surely?

Wonder why no Metal Gear Acid love.

or, the more likely scenario given the bemusement of the dovs on the official capcom forum, was that scee just sat on the game for months and then finally decided to release it on the very worst possible day, that being the day before street fighter 4’s release.
i’d put a hell of a lot more stock in what the devs say than what scee say.
if scee announced the sky was blue i’d go outisde to check it wasn’t suddenly green or orange.

OK, I’d assumed it came out at the same time as the patch but the patch was actually a couple of weeks later. Maybe SCEE decided to release it once Capcom had assured them a patch was on the way or something. Judging by the state of the initial release, I wouldn’t put too much stock in what the developers were saying either (Backbone have since gone on to release Gunstar Heoroes with a completely broken online component as well, so I won’t be buying any of their games again).
