The games don't play any worse for the lack of boxes and instructions.

I recognize that, but my OCD that makes it irrelevant. The video quality was a larger issue though. Only Nintendo could have a system that won't output RGB.

Were you not into Mega Man? PS2 collections were great, I thought.

I didn't list anything non-2D, so Skygunner wouldn't be there either way, but I do want it. The others are second tier. Platformers like Klonoa aren't as important to me as action and shooters. I must have traded a Shikigami II relatively recently, because I used to have that. Red Star I need to try, as I have not had that one.

That bullshit must apply to Chux in the NES thread too, right? Thanks for adding nothing as usual.

I like it, but I think there is some Radiant Silvergun phenomenon going on with it. It's not as good as its physical price, so if you want to play it, I would recommend checking out the Hong Kong PSN store.

I am not sure I have ever played those. If I have, it hasn't been since they were new. I should definitely check them out. I wish they were on PSN, but I don't think they are.

Tomba! was recently released on the PSN.

Nice. I'll definitely check that out then.

edit: Are they somewhat like Adventure Island?

PlayStation allowed me to play Time Crisis at home. Once that happened my love for the system was set in stone.

I also played maybe 1000 hours of SFA2 on my PlayStation, and I'm probably grossly underrating that number. Once I got through Breath of Fire 3 (my first and favorite RPG) I invested a lot of time into the RPGs on the system and they were awesome. I think the focus on graphics and realism has killed the creative stories in RPGs and that makes me sad.

They are platformers with quests. I LOVE the Tomba games.

Nah, they're just all on portables now.

I refuse to buy portables. I never take them out of my house!

portables need TV out and controller in

WTF @ Tomba being $9.99 on PSN

Is that a wtf because it isnt $5.99 like most ps1 games? If so, they tend to do that with games that the physical copies are in high demand/ expensive. See: just about every rpg when they first introduce them to PSN. Some have dropped over time to $5.99.
