who else is going to download ff9 when it appears on psn in the states ?

Seeing as how I already have ff7 and ff8 I have no choice but to complete the collection on my psp.  I hope square enix decides to release parasite eve 1 and 2 on psn too.  I would like to have the chance to go through them again before they release the 3rd birthday.

Another Parasite Eve fan?  

Parasite Eve 1 is my second favourite game of all time. I've probably played through it more times than almost all of the games i've played this gen combined XD

Currently i'm doing the last levels of Chrysler building again.

Parasite Eve 2 was a good game too, but it dissapointed me a lot, mainly because it tried to be a RE clone in terms of gameplay and how the survival-horror theme was implemented on it. 

Yep I'm a parasite eve fan.  I beat the 1st one on the ps1 back in the day and I thought it deserved just as much praise as the ps1 final fantasy titles. The original parasite eve is extremely under rated in my opinion.  I played a little bit of the second one but I didn't get far because the dreamcast had recently came out so that took all of my attention away from the game and I never got back to it.  The dreamcast is also the reason why I never bought and beat ff9 so I am looking forward to it being released on psn so I can finally play it.

I agree with you about Parasite Eve being extremely under rated. It was by far one of the best jRPGs that Squaresoft launched in those days. Heck, it created an entire gameplay system that games like Vagrant Story assimilated xD

Hope that you enjoy FF9 when it launches on PSN, although it's not amongst my favourite FFs, the classical feeling that it has makes it worth playing
