We’ve finally got the full list of 20 games for the PS Classic. Now, will you cancel that pre-order or are you looking forward to the retro console more?
Back to the 90s
While there was a good deal of hand-wringing amongst fans as to what would appear on the PlayStation Classic, that’s a pretty great list. In all, it includes:
- Battle Arena Toshinden
- Cool Boarders 2
- Destruction Derby
- Final Fantasy VII
- Grand Theft Auto
- Intelligent Qube
- Jumping Flash
- Metal Gear Solid
- Mr Driller
- Oddworld: Abe’s Oddysee
- Rayman
- Resident Evil Director’s Cut
- Revelations: Persona
- Ridge Racer Type 4
- Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo
- Syphon Filter
- Tekken 3
- Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six
- Twisted Metal
- Wild Arms
Hard to argue with most of that, right? Personally, I’d have liked to have seen a Street Fighter Alpha on there, and Crash Bandicoot (though we all know why that’s not there), and of course the PSOne version of Doom. I know that’s not all that highly regarded, but it’s awesome (trust me).
Still, even without my personal favorites I’m impressed by this list. Though there are a few that I would have left out, the likes of Metal Gear Solid, Tekken 3, Resident Evil, Rayman, and freaking Battle Arena Toshinden are making this little retro nugget of a console hard to resist.
December 3rd is the launch date, and from what I’ve seen you can still grab a pre-order a few places online. So, getting one?
