Xperia Play Gets Three New Classic PlayStation Games

[kenshindono]

In addition to many Android-based games aimed at the system, three new PlayStation classics will get Xperia Play ports. "Jet Moto," "Hot Shots Golf 2," and "Wipeout" will all arrive on the Xperia Play later this year, optimized for the slide-out gamepad.


The three games are well-known PlayStation titles, and while they're not AAA games like "Metal Gear Solid," "Final Fantasy 7," or "Xenogears (that i'am currently playing)," they're big enough to give the previously perceived "PlayStation Phone" a strong shot of PlayStation flavor.

That's not enough for me. I want more and better games faster.

Will they be actual ports or will they be emulated ISOs? If they are the latter, they can count on nobody buying them.

They're the same as the ones that are already up, so basically emulated ISOs just like Crash, Wild Arms, etc...

I wish they would release Wipeout 2097 with proper widescreen support and some sort of online scoreboard for timetrials.
Wipeout 1 was a fine game back in it's day, but when you have played perfection in the form of 2097, it's kinda hard to go back to the original.

You're never going to see 2097 released on PS Store or for Xperia Play... same with Wipeout 3.

Neither will be a problem once the DRM's been ripped out though...
