GL: "After listening to all of the hoopla surrounding Patapon, I decided to give the little bugger a try. I remember seeing it waiting on a shelf for an unsuspecting buyer under the allure of its kiddish demeanor to purchase it. Wondering if it held more than fancy looks myself, I popped the bad boy into my PSP and began my journey in search of "It." After about twenty minutes, I realized that the developers had successfully blended real-time strategy and rhythm mechanics into one of the most entertaining and alluring titles on the handheld."
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. :)
It's certainly the most unique rhythm game to come out in quite a long while. IMO, a must-have for any PSP owner.
Good find S8Slayer :)
I can't PM you back lol, you forgot to unblock me lol
