The Warriors hits the PlayStation Network

By Thomas Godden

Can you dig it?

Rockstar Games’ The Warriors has finally arrived on PSN. The PS2 Classic offers gamers a chance to go back to the 2005 adaptation that details the events leading up to and through the 1979 film. Players will have to fight their way from Coney Island to the North Bronx and back against New York’s most dangerous gangs. Upon release the game was praised for its authenticity and comprehensive portrayal&# 160;of the seedy underbelly of the big apple.

The Warriors is available to download for £7.99 from PlayStation Network now.

This game is a hidden gem. One of the best beat em ups I've ever played. A bit tricky to get into but once you have the controls down it's a blast to play.

MajorLazer4396d ago

One of the best PS2 titles :D I am so ecstatic this has finally released , a true classic

crimsonfox4396d ago

between this and manhunt my ps3 is has been getting a R* certified beating all week ..I own these 2 games on ps2 still but I support R* with a passion because they keep it real. if anyone hasn't played this badboy.... play this badboy...

MadLad4396d ago

Never really took to beat em' ups, but this was one of my favorites back in the day.
Still play this one from time to time. Visuals hold up fairly well for the original Xbox version.

Jacobster4396d ago

Warriors........come out and plaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyy!

I thought I was losing it. Everything is working in my house except PSN. I checked the PSN page an hour ago and it was all green checks.

I just checked again, everything is red. Says they're doing maintenance.

It finally came back up but I must say that it's really unacceptable to not be able to play my games when it's down. Also I have gain a new appreciation for physical games. I know digital keeps growing and growing but the thing is you are paging for something you don't have complete control over and that's lame.

Cacabunga125d ago

It has been over a year since ps+ expired and i only play SP games. I only got 1 month ps+ basic back when i had to do rdr2 online trophies.
I couldn’t care less and shows sp games will always FTW

darthv72124d ago

....and this is why everyone should support more than one platform. Switch has been getting more play time as a result.

Well i am locked out of my digital single player games because offline play wasn't activated and licences can't be verified. And i got no physical games. Gotta remember to activate that when it's back up.

Hopefully it comes back up soon.

neomahi125d ago

I have several PS4 consoles in my house for various purposes, I'm screwed because I have such a large collection and I don't want to have redownload whenever I want to play a game. I want to fire it up, like going to a shelf, pulling a game off the shelf, putting it in the disc drive and off you go that fast. Can't do that with digital and limited HDD space. Installing a disc is faster, you don't have to worry about data caps and internet speeds, and storage space is really expensive. Xbox just allowed a 16TB HDD to be accessed by Xbox, but that 16TB is gonna cost you, even more if it's SSD, if those even exist yet.....

VersusDMC125d ago

It is still down but if you go to settings -users and accounts- other - restore licenses i managed restore a license to a single player game. Back to replaying GOW Ragnarok.

solideagle125d ago

Single player my a**

I have downloaded unicorn overlord, Spiderman 1 And many offline single player but I am getting error to restore license but psn is down in UK.

What a load of bullshit that I can't even play single player games...

Digital is future /s :@

Sonic1881124d ago

This is one of the reason why I don't pay for Playstation plus

Still down, been a while since something like this happened

Christopher125d ago

Not a good sign that they haven't said anything yet.

anast125d ago

Ask PlayStation X: "We are aware some users might be currently experiencing issues with PSN."

LG_Fox_Brazil124d ago

I'm playing Fortnite with my cousin right now, but it's the only game with servers up, the rest is working, library, store, downloads, it's just the online, which sucks, cause I wanted to play Helldivers and Phasmophobia

LG_Fox_Brazil124d ago

Update: It is back here in Brazil. 20 hours later, goddamn

OmegaSoldati124d ago

Still down. More than 12 hours. 2011 flashbacks incoming

P_Bomb125d ago

Yeah it’s all shot. Friday night? Bad timing. 😤

Profchaos125d ago (Edited 125d ago )

Saturday midday for me so no biggie Friday night would be annoying

Profchaos125d ago (Edited 125d ago )

Seems to be a big one so might extend into Saturday for the you guys

P_Bomb125d ago

Yeah, no end in sight. I watched some KCD2 streams to pass the time. Time to call it a night 😴

neomahi125d ago

Would've made more sense to do maintenance during the week. I get it, it's a necessary, but don't do it on the weekend! That and people with digital game collections are up the creek

Nacho_Z125d ago

Suggests it's a problem and not planned maintenance given the timing.

Profchaos125d ago

Down for me but single player PS plus games still work and obviously anything I own digitally or physically so big deal

When PSN is down, can people even use their PS Portals locally?

I'm also near platinum in Astro but I can't even load the trophies page on the system with this issue going on.

OtterX255d ago

Yea, this thing just became a paper weight. :\

I just tried, and it woke the console up out of sleep mode just fine, but it's stuck in a neverending attempt to actually connect. I've had my Portal for a bit over a month now and have absolutely loved it... but I just found my biggest dislike of this thing.

lukasmain255d ago

Works fine for me as writing this.

OtterX255d ago

@potatoseal great! Glad your region is working. Mine's still stuck in "Connecting". :\

fr0sty255d ago

USA seems to be ok, just turned my system on and all is well.

OtterX255d ago

Yea weird, my Portal wouldn't connect until I actually restarted the Portal. It's working fine now! 🔥

Profchaos255d ago (Edited 255d ago )

No it still needs to use you PlayStation account authentication to connect the two systems. Both ends need to be able to talk to PlayStation authentication servers to verify your identity prior to connection. It's a good thing I guess as you wouldn't want a unauthorised connection to your console

There's a alternative remote play app on the app store that allows it but it's not going to help you with the portal right now

kayoss255d ago

Im able to connect using my PS Portal but all my games have the "License cannot be verified...." error.

Yui_Suzumiya255d ago

And here I just dusted off my PS4 the past week after not touching it for over 3 years and now I can't even play an offline visual novel (World End Syndrome), lol

Christopher255d ago

It was a night of Vampire Survivors for me.

Disccordia255d ago (Edited 255d ago )

Great choice, still waiting for WORLDEND PHENOMENON...

Yui_Suzumiya249d ago

Same here! I went to Twitter to check up on progress for WEP and apparently it's on the backburner for the moment while the production team works on a spin-off that takes place in the same universe as WES. I did get the platinum trophy though. Now I'm working on Steins;Gate Elite which I should have gone through years ago because the anime adaptation is what got me into anime to begin with, lol.

P_Bomb255d ago

Yeah it’s been 3 hours as of this writing. No official word on the cause that I know of.

ZeekQuattro255d ago

Verizon had outages across the US yesterday. Probably still do bit it didn't effect me. Wonder if this is related or just a coincidence.

blackblades255d ago

I can see people in my friend list playing, its not everyone just like other times. I don't mind I got other things I can do in this world we call life. It's funny on Twitter cause they all use the same excuse "oh just got off work and just wanna play". Also I like free stuff compensation would be great, I prepared for it to go down so I can get more out of it compensation

Michiel1989254d ago

day 2, drums in the deep. They are coming

LG_Fox_Brazil255d ago

Just checked and it seems Xbox is also down, is this ddos? Downdetector has quite a few people posting about both platforms and also for Verizon as well

Reaper22_254d ago

That's not true. Xbox was never down.

gold_drake255d ago (Edited 255d ago )

yeh its been down for hours now.

everytime it goes down, i get ptsd from 2011 haha

3 weeks.

blackblades255d ago

Lol I don't I be like yeah free stuff

Extermin8or3_255d ago

Free stuff at the expense of 3 months without PSN. No online play, no access to digital games .....

blackblades255d ago (Edited 255d ago )

@Extermin
Ain't talking that long, 24hrs is the limit. 24hrs should be that compensation time. 3 weeks I'm strong enough to handle it but its not worth it at 3 months bruh. 24hrs

Profchaos255d ago

@exterminator it was easier to stomach back then sure but at least there's still disc based games and games you have on your system will still load just fine unlike Xbox there's no check in to validate licences it just plays locally if it's not expired
