Hours after retailers shut down pre-orders for the 400,000 launch-day PlayStation 3s, auction sites explode with offerings averaging $1,500 a pop.
Salman from Tech4Gamers writes "Mortal Kombat 9 revived the series from a low point after bringing it back to 2D combat. It marked a new high-point for the franchise due to its incredible roster, exciting cinematic story mode, and high-octane combat."
Shaolin Monks is a forgotten gem. I would love to see a new one, or a remake of the old.
That game was actually goated. It was the first time ever that I actually tried to get good at a fighting game. Unfortunately the online connection was so dogshit it made it hard to enjoy and eventually I gave up. Haven't really played much fighting games since.
Taking a trip back to Housemarque's forgotten platformer.
The Simpsons: Hit and Run, The Legend of Dragoon, and Chrono Trigger would benefit substantially from a modern remake.
The Xenosaga trilogy, the Wild Arms games, Xenogears, Parasite Eve, Dino Crisis, Suikoden. The Warriors game I know nothing about but it looks interesting. Anybody can do a list of games they want to see get modernized I would lose my shit if Namco brought the Xenosaga trilogy to modern consoles.
i think this is okay, as long as there's a limit to how many PS3s an individual can purchase. we don't want this to turn into a "ticket scouting" situation though.
Damn i think i better sell my 360 (with 2 controllers, remote, 8 games, Xboxlive Gold, Harddisk, etc) for $400.
Then i only need another $1100 to buy a second handed PS3 without warranty.... ow man i cant wait until the day i can have the same experience on my PS3 as i had with my 360 back in the old days.
I hope Sony will have also shortages for the Europe launch. I'll preorder at least 5 and sell 4 on Ebay and I'll easily earn me a nice 1080p HDTV. Just saw a nice 1080p HDMI LG for only 1500€.
It will be the first time I'll have a launch console but I don't need to worry, in Europe warranty is regulated per law, everything has 1-2 years warranty :-)
