I didn't see a dedicated thread, and thought the game deserved one. Who is planning on getting it? I preordered mine today, and it's due out in a couple of weeks assuming the date holds.

2-player via Ad-Hoc. I don't have any friends with PSP's, but this is still cool for those members that do. Now I'm just worried about the aspect ratio, and wondering if they'll gently stretch it to the PSP's 16:9 or throw up bars to retain 4:3.

I'm pumped to get this on a portable, anyone else? :buttrock:

I am getting this as well as the wii version. Wish it was on the DS though because I never use my PSP anymore.

In the end, I know I'll snag both PS2/PSP versions, but to be able to play all 7 games on the road is too sweet. :drool:

I was unsure what system to get it for until deciding on the PSP. Playing it on a portable with a nice screen on the go is just too attractive of an idea.

The PSP version ships on the 21st. :D

Also of note is the Genesis Collection for PSP, which I'll be grabbing for Phantasy Star II and IV alone. Another awesome compilation.

At this point, Genesis collections are strawberry milk*.
Hey Sega, how about some stupendous arcade compilations of games that never made it to home console?

What ever happened to the Phantasy Star remake collection for PS2?


* Strawberry Milk = WHen something has been milked so much that it's no longer milked, but bled.

is there a price set for the psp version? I may get it if it's $30 or less, but $40 is stretching it since I rarely play my PSP anymore and I'll have the Wii version as well.

I'd get it on DS for sure, if it were released. Too bad it's not.

Actually, I just looked on Amazon and it's listed at $40 just like the home versions. Ah well...maybe at some point. IF I ever start playing my PSP again.

What firmware do you all think it'll require? I haven't been keeping up with PSP stuff for a while, so I don't even know what the most recent fw you can run on a 1.5 is anymore. Currently I think I'm running 2.71 on my 1.5 with DevHook. I assume MSA will be at least 2.8?

The last new game I bought (Ace Combat X) required 2.8 or 2.81 firmware to run.

And MS Anthology is going to be $39.99.

Sega Genesis Collection is apparently out. Maybe it deserves its own thread, who knows. Has anyone played it yet? I have yet to see a review, hopefully the emulation was done well on this compilation, or as well as the PS2 version which is supposed to be pretty faithful.

Its pretty decent IMO. Sounds a little bit off but its a pretty decent compilation. There are load times too, which boggle me.
