Remember back in September, when Sony announced the PlayStation Classic? At the time, they didn’t tell us the full list of games it’ll come with. Well, now we know.
The PlayStation Classic, a miniaturized version of the original PlayStation, comes with 20 preloaded games on it. The original announcement didn’t list every game, though, only five of them (Final Fantasy VII, Jumping Flash, Ridge Racer Type 4, Tekken 3, and Wild Arms). This led people, including myself, to suspect that the rest of the game selection was going to be garbage. This has now been amended, as Sony has posted the entire list of games on the PlayStation Blog website.
- Battle Arena Toshinden
- Cool Boarders 2
- Destruction Derby
- Final Fantasy VII
- Grand Theft Auto
- Intelligent Qube
- Jumping Flash
- Metal Gear Solid
- Mr Driller
- Oddworld: Abe’s Oddysee
- Rayman
- Resident Evil Director’s Cut
- Revelations: Persona
- Ridge Racer Type 4
- Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo
- Syphon Filter
- Tekken 3
- Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six
- Twisted Metal
- Wild Arms
I’m noticing some classic favorites of mine, like Oddworld and Super Puzzle Fighter. There’s a number of actual classic games missing though, like Crash Bandicoot, Spyro, and Tony Hawk Pro Skater. The first two I chalk up to the recent remasters, with Tony Hawk absent because of licensing complications.
The PlayStation Classic will release on December 3 for $99.99. It comes with the 20 games listed above, as well as two controllers.
Here’s a fun fact for ya: The day I reported on the PlayStation Classic’s announcement was the same day I reported on Stormy Daniels comparing Trump’s goober to Toad from Mario Kart.
