and the first ps2 classic to get these features is Haunting Ground and....Dora the explora :L

WeskerChildReborned4709d ago

Sadly, don't know who thought that PS3 owners were children though. I certainly don't want Dora.

r214709d ago

me too bud, what was the sony folks thinking?

MiamiACR214709d ago

They must have forgotten that all PS3 owners were full grown adults with beards, lives, and a 401k.

It looks like I may be buying a second copy of HG if the change is truly noticeable....

wishingW3L4709d ago

the phat PS3 did this to the old games and in certain ways it made the games look worse. I remember playing Dragon Quest 8 with the up-scaling and it actually made the game look even more blurry but the smoothing was fine. It made the game look better by hiding jaggies a little bit but nothing close to the HD remasters.

if they were adding trophies to each classic they would sell double, or tripple

LNDCalling4709d ago

Wasn't this option always available i.e. enabling or disabling smoothing and scaling ???

Dora is a very underrated game by the way!

Rolling the Dice: Do Modern RPGs Miss the Point of Team-Based Play?

It seems it was long time ago. A bunch of friends spending hours on end playing RPG games, sitting around the table with the box of cold pizza. Excited about the story, listening to the Game Master, they were completely engaged in the worlds only visible to them and their imaginations.

The GM is the programmer, and in MMOs and co-ops, you can play with others. If you want to ONLY use your imagination for the visuals, read a book.

1) Hope they put it on disc this time.
2) Hope this is a positive for Neptune coming over as well.

Demons Souls5486d ago

If so, that's being developed & published by Idea Factory. Compile Heart has nothing to do with it (Thank God for that).

Godmars2905486d ago (Edited 5486d ago )

Thought Compile Heart was one of the companies lending characters.

Was also speaking in general as in regards to a US of Neptune. If these guys are offing a second game, NIS or Atlus, both of whom offer quirkier titles, will put that one out.

@kagon01:
My issue isn't - wholly - with the DL-only option, but the price. The first game should be $30. Maybe $40, and by that I mean $39.99. The only reason its $45 is the 360 disc version which has extras. Nevermind that by all rights its a PS2 game. Something that proabbly could have been done if the devs had the GOW2 engine or tools.

ClownBelt5486d ago

I approve of this god damn message.

Could have gotten my 60 bucks if they just put it on a disc.

Another exclusive damnn the ps3 keeps on rollin wit games awesome ;)

Jack-Pyro5486d ago

Is this a half decent SRPG, porn aside, cause if it is, i might just decide to go and buy it for the 360.

Anon73495486d ago

There's no porn just some sexual innuendos but that's it.

Also it is a great game by itself, maybe not graphically but everything else is top tier.

RedDevils5485d ago

so it had some kind of "top tier" porn story jk

ThanatosDMC5486d ago

Yup, it's a decent game. I just hate that a move has to go first before any attack options.
