Ultimate Ghosts 'n Goblins (PSP)

Yep, and coupled with the lack of a second analog, 3D in anything other than racing games sucks. Capcom unlocked the PSP.

That was a bad ass video.

Sidescrollers look amazing on the wide screen, and their 3D has as detail and animation to rival some of the best old sprite work.

Not saying it will, but maybe Earthworm Jim will continue the trend.

It looks a lot better in motion than I ever thought it would. I'd be great if there was a 2D resurgence with quality like that. Always wanted to see 2D/2.5D really pushed on current hardware.

I think I have to import this.

UG&G will be my GOTY sans doubt.

Hopefully we won't have to wait until year 2021 (1991 to 2006 & 2006 to 2021) for a sequel.

How large is this game? Judging from the screens and Arthur's many powerups, UGnG looks more and more like the stunning 2.5D Castlevania adventure IGA refuses to give the PSP (or any other system).

Shinkiro remains the only SNK staple that has unquestionably gotten better since the SNK bankrupcy.

I miss the days when spines were all one color, a row of PS1, Saturn, or DC games look much nicer that the chromatic chaos of today's games.

The spines are unified, in every region, with the PSP logo over a black bar.

Wallpaper and new stages are up on the homepage, shame that it's 30fps but I'll live happy.

Here's a demo of the game (& Powerstone & Capcom Classics Coll):

I take it this is a UMD image? Hey, where's all those downloadable demos that we were supposed to get after Loco Roco and 2.71? :(
