Patapon is game which is hard to describe. You assume the role of the Mighty Patapon, the god to the Patapon creatures. By banging your drum, you energize them to move, attack, defend, etc. The simplistic gameplay and addictive beats will keep you coming back for more. Here is a breakdown of some of the facets of Patapon for the PSP.
VGChartz's Adam Cartwright: "Despite its somewhat anaemic lineup of backwards-compatible titles (unusual in light of the genre’s strong pedigree on Sony consoles), Vita’s selection of rhythm games is highly impressive in the modern market with genre favourites like DJMax, Hatsune Miku and Taiko no Tatsujin all present and plenty of quirky oddities like Deemo, Love Live & Persona thrown in for good measure. You’re definitely going to need to try your hand at importing to get the most of the genre here, but that shouldn’t be an issue thanks to region-free hardware and easy-to-grasp gameplay."
It seems that Sony is slowly working on bringing select classic titles from its classic consoles back on PlayStation 4 as remasters.
Who’ll be next?
"Announced at PSX 2016, PaRappa the Rapper Remastered finally has a release date in Japan."
I would've preferred Legend of Dragoon instead. Or better yet just for Sony to make PS1 Classics playable on PS4 just like they did with PS2.
Just remastering this game by itself just seems rather weird.
Yeah it does, they get to make more money. Why release classics when they can slap remaster on it, do a little polish, and sell it for $20 instead of sub $10
It would have been slightly better with Um Jammer Lammy too (I know its not the 20th Anniversary of that but still). Parappa was unlockable and was playable in the entire game again but with lyrics now instead of jamming to the tunes with Lammy. Its essentially another Parappa game then. :)
Pata Pata Pata Pon!!!! Very unique game that plays very well on the PSP, a must play for any PSP owner.
This really does look cool I'm looking forward to playing it
Got this and GOW:COO coming from america in the near future. My PSP will be used for games (excluded PSN PS1 downloads) again ^_^
Got my save from the demo waiting. 2 blue archers and a bunch of upgraded spear and soldier pon.
Wednesday can't come soon enough! And next week its God of War! PSP users have it good atm.
It's only 20bucks, so aside from playing it, buy it.
I finished the game and I can hardly wait for the sequel. The song during the credits rocks.
