Official PS2 Classics for PS4 Thread

[Fatboi1]

Official statement from the blog:

We are getting things started with a bang by launching with eight fan favorites tomorrow:
Dark Cloud — $14.99
Grand Theft Auto III — $14.99
Grand Theft Auto: Vice City — $14.99
Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas — $14.99
Rogue Galaxy — $14.99
The Mark of Kri — $14.99
Twisted Metal: Black — $9.99
War of the Monsters — $9.99

Having these titles available on PS4 is already incredibly exciting for us, but we did not stop there. We have brought these titles forward to meet today’s gaming standards by adding Trophy support! Each title’s Trophy set has been carefully developed in conjunction with feedback from the original creators to be sure that they capture the spirit and feeling of each game.

Also, you will be able to experience all of these PS2 games like never before — in up-rendered 1080p with the features you expect from a PS4 game including Remote Play, Live Broadcast, Share Play, Activity Feeds, and Second Screen support for game manuals with PlayStation Vita or PlayStation App.

And if you’re attending PlayStation Experience in San Francisco this weekend, you’ll be able to play these PS2 games on PS4 at the show floor:
Dark Cloud
Grand Theft Auto: Vice City
Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas
PaRappa the Rapper 2 (coming soon)
Rogue Galaxy
The King of Fighters 2000 (coming soon)
The Mark of Kri
War of the Monsters

So.. rebuy PSN PS2 games on PS4 in order to get the emulation improvements?? I understand remasters and remakes but chargin for emulation is kind of

Now you funny lookin nikkas can't say I don't be callin out Sony on their shyt.

xbox won

 

[Lord Scion]

They're totally going the Nintendo route

PS4 not supporting Ps2 Classic you bought on your PS3 is bullshyt. Yea, I know they're two different emulators but they can at least pull a Microsoft and let you have the PS4 version for free if you bought the PS3 version.

 

[Thatrogueassdiaz]

You didn't know this? I own a bunch of PSN Ps2/PSX games on my ps3 and I can't play any of them on ps4 without rebuying them (most aren't even on there anyway)

 

[Cladyclad]

don't care

 

[Phillyrider807]

Why do you think they WOULDN'T charge u for this??

However NOT supporting the PS2 classics YOU ALREADY BOUGHT for PS3 is bullshyt

Dont matter to me. PS4 will be hacked in a year or 2 and it will be ps3 bliss all over again

 

[Straw Hat Luffy]

I thought they been doing this since Ps3 days for ps1 games

 

[Kamikaze Revy]

Wow. No bueno

 

[Leasy]

Why did they implement this shyt? Nobody gives a fukk about PS2.

 

[Prince Akeem]

This is one of those things where I understand why some people would be upset over this but I personally don't care. I never bought any PS2 games on PS3.

 

[Grand Conde]

This doesn't surprise me, assuming it is true. If they keep it cheap - like ten bucks - its not a problem.

I don't see how you owning a physical copy on a different console is really relevant though.

 

[Tenchi Ryu]

Some bullshyt. Was hoping this old ps2 would be able to be shelved for good.

fukking sony

 

[Grand Conde]

I understand M$ are doing things differently, and in a better way, but Sony don't have the deep pockets M$ have. They are going to penny pinch when and where they can.

 

[Chris Cool]

not a big deal to me. never bought ps2 classics, my shyt was backwards compatible. even if i did though, with all the new enhancements and shyt i don't even see it as a big deal. I'd buy a bunch of old ass games i already got if they threw trophy support, 1080p, and all that shyt on it.

 

[Fatboi1]

To be clear, I'm not complaining that they're selling PS2 games. I'm just a bit at them selling(if it's that) games that you already own on PSN for a PS4 version. It should be BC with PSN classics since it's apparently running through an emulator or something.
