Kratos is in Shovel Knight for Playstation. I thought Microsoft was actually going to do something themselves. Raised my hopes for nothing.

What do you mean? It's rumored that MS/Rare plans to release a new Battletoads soon, possibly this summer. They've been teasing it for awhile now.

Hopefully that happens, but I wasnt hyped at all when I heard it was a cameo in shovel knight and i'm far from hyped for the Playstation version as well. Its like throwing people a bone who grew up playing these games a bone because you own the their nostalgia that they had from other consoles. If they come out a Battletoads game themselves i'll be hyped. MS has been doing a good job to make up for a lot but...this is almost on level with Conkers reestablishment, which is merely a sideshow.

If Microsoft had actually created these games they would have more respect, but this it seems is what happens when you buy someone elses legacy.
