Seriously, go buy Gunstar Heroes right now! ... unless you already bought it on the Wii's Virtual Console, which I did way back when I reviewed it on VFH Classic. Though I wonder how Sony can sell it for $5, when Nintendo charges $8... none the less it's a Genesis game that you must play if you haven't already.

Also, all that Tiger Woods content, is stuff you can earn in the game already, or you can just pay more to get it right away ... why, would anyone do that?

I hear the fanboys cheering, Final Fantasy VII is now on PS3, but if you're like me and actually own the game on PSone discs... then that doesn't really matter.

E3 09: Sony Conference

Sony must have something to surprise with this yeay, no? I mean there must be something huge to show off after the leaked PSP Go, which I bet was going to be a big deal for them. Let's see where Sony takes us this year!

The show opened up with a montage of footage for Playstation 2, PS3, PSP and PSN titles; trying to make a point that Sony has the most platforms on the market now, I guess. Funny thing, afterwards Jack Tretton made remarks regarding the press leaks, and thank everyone for still showing up.

The show ended there.

Honestly, wow. I mean, the show was so-so at the start, and $250 for the PSP Go is a real kicker. Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker has me pretty pumped, though I was surprised that despite Kojima being there, there was no mention of Metal Gear Solid: Rising on PS3. Was really surprised to hear about Final Fantasy XIV already, but when it turned out to be a new online title I lost interest.

As for the Sony's attemp at motion, it seems like a cross between Nintendo's Wii MotionPlus and Microsoft's "Natal"; but like Natal it's still in an early phase and doesn't seem to be intended for release anytime soon. ModNation Racers looks surprisingly cool, and lastly, The Last Guardian had already won me over with the leaked trailer, this finalized version just makes it so much sweeter.

I think Microsoft won the show for me in terms of technology, but I think Sony really won in terms of game content... as for Nintendo, hey, they did better than last year at least.

Not bad, not bad at all considering there was no new downloadable titles the past two weeks... But now one PSN title, two PSP games (one of which is brand new), and three(!) PSone games!

Persona 2 re-print

Believe it or not, Atlus is re-releasing Persona 2: Eternal Punishment, as an Amazon exclusive! While I'm finding it really neat and amusing that they're releasing a Playstation One title now, I can't see myself paying the $39.99 that they're asking for, not at this day and age. You can see the full announcement here:

Atlus also ensures that the title is playable on PSone, Playstation 2, and all Playstation 3 systems (as every PS3 model as a PSone emulater). So no wories on which PS system you have. To buy the game visit Amazon.com
