Peffse Posted February 6, 2011 Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 (edited) I've seen that foreign PSN markets have the three PS1 Armored Core games available as PSOne Classics.Was there any word on a United States PSN release? EDIT: I take that back... it's a PS3 only release and not the PS3/PSP Classics type. Edited February 6, 2011 by Peffse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harakiri Tiger Posted February 6, 2011 Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 They may release it here in the US, but they probably won't until after AC5 hits. If AC5 is popular enough, we're good. =3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LCC Posted February 6, 2011 Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 No idea, pepsi. I'd imagine if AC5 gets strong sales they might get a release, or even before it comes out for people to play kind of like parasite eve 1/2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pendragon Posted February 6, 2011 Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 Sadly, I doubt it. America is too wrapped up in CAWWADOOTY to care about a good game series. If AC5 sells well though, then it might happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peffse Posted February 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2011 Perhaps interest will increase with the NGP release and Sony Xperia Play with Playstation Suite. eh~ whatever. I emailed Agetec about it, since they were the ones that originally localized them. Doubt that will get a response. Hahahaha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragon Angel Knight Posted May 5, 2011 Report Share Posted May 5, 2011 It'd be fun to play the originals again. hell, they could even just make portable versions of the games like they did with AC3 and the rest. Update the graphics and throw in some extras that the original games didn't have just to entice people to pick them up. Though I'd pick them up anyway...

Griffon Posted May 8, 2011 Report Share Posted May 8, 2011 Sucks, I have MoA from a friend who left it years and years ago, but it's too scratched to make it past the first mission. A PSN release of them would be fantastic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnus Posted May 15, 2011 Report Share Posted May 15, 2011 They won't, no matter what. The motto for Sony America is "If it needs dual sticks, then it can't be ported to the PSP, and then we look bad, so no good PS1 games that require dual sticks are allowed on the PSN."

Niji Superfan Posted May 18, 2011 Report Share Posted May 18, 2011 They won't, no matter what. The motto for Sony America is "If it needs dual sticks, then it can't be ported to the PSP, and then we look bad, so no good PS1 games that require dual sticks are allowed on the PSN." ...Are you fucking new here? AC1 came out before PS1 controllers even had dual sticks, and consequently, the game didn't support dual stick control schemes until it went to the PS2. ...Oh, wait, it still didn't get dual stick support until the fifth release on the PS2, which makes you all the more retarded for failing to take this into account. It was technically possible to rig up MoA to play with dual analog controls by some unconventional means that I really can't recall, but I digress. Above and beyond all this, three PS2-era AC games have been ported to the PSP already (one of which all but demands dual analog), which is a clear indicator that any of the PS1 games should play just fine on it. Bravo, Magnus. You'd think that someone who dedicates the majority of his time not-having-sex would at least be good at what he does as a corollary. inb4 umad, inb4 lame image macro. I'd inb4 unfunny comebacks and contrived attempts at wit, but at that point, I'm not even leaving you anything to work with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnus Posted May 26, 2011 Report Share Posted May 26, 2011 I don't have to make any witty comebacks over your head. You make it obvious that you've never been on the Japanese PSN store, yet are trying to make a point involving it without having been there. I think I'll let your inexperience talk for itself.

Niji Superfan Posted June 3, 2011 Report Share Posted June 3, 2011 You know, that might just be relevant if your argument in its entirety wasn't centered on PSP support and PSX AC's reliance on dual analogs. You claimed that AC1-era would never get ported because it requires the use of dual analogs (implicitly, anyway). I pointed out that this obviously isn't an issue when you consider that 1) AC1 predates dual analog and 2) Last Raven was ported to the PSP, despite being a game with a dual analog control scheme by default. QED, dual analog support has nothing to do with it and you're dumb. P.S. I said lame and unfunny comebacks, sweet pea. When you say something genuinely witty for any point or purpose, I'll know your account has been jacked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artdeux Posted June 3, 2011 Report Share Posted June 3, 2011 Dual Analogues? How about the freaking missing L2/R2 buttons? LRp is a PITA to play. Just ask Niji and Tsuranga. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niji Superfan Posted June 3, 2011 Report Share Posted June 3, 2011 (edited) LRp truthfully isn't too bad once you move the control scheme around and use something really fucked up and counter-intuitive. It controls fine there, just... Not with any of the default controls. Of course, AC3 played fine as long as you're using a blade, and I've played AC1 on my PSP by the same means. The PSP maps L2 and R2 to the analog stick when you're not using it, so by default, you can use that to look up. Personally, I just mapped blade and weapon switch to the analog and used triangle/circle to look up, a la AC3p, but that's just me. Even still, I'm pretty sure you can choose to switch between the analog or the D-pad for proprietary movement in the PSP HUD, with the other being used for the extra buttons, though it's been awhile. What I'm really getting at here is that dual analog support has nothing to do with Sony of America's refusal to put AC1 and its expansions up on the store, it's AC1's jarring unpopularity. Point-blank, no one gives a shit about it, not enough to warrant putting it on the market again. Edited June 3, 2011 by Altaire Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shirtless Crackhead Posted April 19, 2012 Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 Just go to some gamestops and pick up old copies and a PS2, it'll probably cost less then buying it for PS3 as a re-release. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LCC Posted April 19, 2012 Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 I doubt you'd find them; PS1 games are usually only at pawn shops. Buying online would be more expensive, so you're either emulating or waiting at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shirtless Crackhead Posted April 20, 2012 Report Share Posted April 20, 2012 Flea markets aren't bad either, if you have big ones like they did in Ohio. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nomrah Posted April 20, 2012 Report Share Posted April 20, 2012 I saw a one of the two discs of MoA at Pawn America, a miserable sight. I'm missing AC1 and ACPP but I own MoA, Anyways I'd primarily be interested in PSN AC releases if they incorporated online play. What I truly wish for is a PSN release of PS2 titles that would incorporate online play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
