(continued)

Ridge Racer Type 4 - Never played this one but I have played a demo and a full version of two separate RR games and they have me conflicted. If Type 4 handles like the demo of Ridge Racer Revolution then they could have found something much better to take this spot. If, however, it handles like Ridge Racer 64 then I'm all for keeping this one here.

Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo - Played a demo of the HD version on Xbox Live back in... late 2008? Anyway, it's pretty good. Would have preferred Bust-A-Move or the fighting game spin-off Pocket Fighter here but it's not like this is a bad pick or anything.

Syphon Filter - Never played this one but the sequel was fun. Hopefully, there aren't too many differences between the two games that would make me regret saying I don't mind Syphon Filter being here.

Tekken 3 - Even though I personally prefer Tekken 2, I wasn't even mad when I first heard Tekken 3 would be representing the series for the PSC. One of the best 3D fighting games for the system and a ton of bonus content to make most players happy.

Tom Clancys Rainbow Six - Now here's a head scratcher. For years and years, I've heard that the PS1 port of Rainbow Six took the tactical shooter of the PC original (and, to a lesser extent, the N64 port that I'm more familiar with) and turned it into a generic FPS without any of the cool detailed planning before missions. This spot should have been given to Armored Core and, to get it out of the way here and now, yes not getting Armored Core, G-Darius and Parasite Eve in the U.S. version of the PSC is some BULLSHIT!

Twisted Metal - On one hand, yes the superior Twisted Metal 2: World Tour definitely should have taken this spot but it's not like the first game sucks or anything. It's still an amazing addition to the PSC and one I think people are going to really like. Besides, it could be much worse. *turns gaze over to Twisted Metal 3 & 4 and cringes*

Wild Arms - Pass.

So, overall, I think people interested in the PlayStation Classic have a lot of good to look forward to although there are also some obvious duds here that should be avoided like the bubonic plague. Would have liked to see Parappa the Rapper or any of the Tomba games replace stuff like Rainbow Six, Persona and even Battle Arena Toshinden. Still, if I find this for cheap down the line, I wouldn't mind grabbing it for myself.
