it will be two thumbs up if developers willing to add in NGP new features to play their previous PSP games with new way of controlling... ^^

I would like patches tbh, I can see FIFA or those puzzle games having a good use with those touch controls.

Yes and no. What am I going to do with my UMDs? To make matters worse, 3 of my UMDs don't have a digital version available on the PSN, negating the possibility of selling them and rebuying their respective digital versions.

Those games are Crisis Core, FF Tactics and Silent Hill Origins.

Silent Hill Origins is on American PSN Store for U$9,99 since 2009, dunno if its on European store but they should correct this. I'm pretty sure SE will put Crisis Core and Tactics on PSN before the release of NGP, I remember Sony stating they are talking with publishers to put more (old and new) games on PSN, I bet the most important publisher is SE.

Silent Hill Origins isn't on the european store and I only buy from that one. If the other games will ever be put on the PSN reamins to be seen. Hopefully they will indeed.

Give them some time - since few weeks ago Square Enix started to put their games on PSN so they should sooner or later reach those older titles.

It's software emulated, so they won't. The reason it was cut from the PS3 was to save hardware costs, and since there is nothing like that here, they won't.

Probably shortly after they hint at a trade in program for PSP games, then forget they ever said it.



Anyone can guess. It takes no effort to throw out lots of predictions and have some of them be correct. You are not and wiser or better for having your guesses be right. Even a blind man can hit the bullseye.

I will never understand why they released Origins on North America store and not on European store, that's so dumb lol But I think they will actually make all stores much more even in terms of PSP games and they will fight for the SE games, that would be a big plus for digital sales and NGP. 

Oh well, we can only just wait.
