Genesis classics coming to XBLA, PSN

December 24, 2008 in News comments 20

If the Entertainment Software Rating Board's listings are to be believed, Gunstar Heroes, Phantasy Star II, Comix Zone and Sonic The Hedgehog 3 are all coming to Xbox Live Arcade and the PlayStation Network. No release dates or UK release notes have been posted, but it's nice, hey?

      Dunno about 360, but it's still good news if some people have a PSP. I'm assuming those classics would play on both PS3 and PSP.

      Yea, but we don't have to worry about it fitting on our hard drives. Have fun switching around your SD cards though.

      Oh and Gunstar Heroes, other than Sonic that's about the only game on the Genesis I actually liked.

        Congrats Linkerd you just completed the first stage Kubler-Ross identified, Denial. You say you aren't a fanboy, but your post says otherwise. You constantly keep praising the Wii and banging it collective ass and downplay any other system. You then call other people fanboys cause you're angry that they hurt your console; Thus the definition of fanboy.

        What I do is I accept the fact the Wii has good potential, but Nintendo has made some poor choices and questionable ones, which makes me get mad. The Wii has more shovelware then any other system out, even PS3. Until Nintendo get's off their collective asses and make sure devs push the potential on the Wii more instead of allowing these bad quality of games, I won't like Nintendo that much anymore. Sony was pushing for Blu-ray at the start of the PS3 life-cycle, and since it beat HD-DVD quicker than anyone anticipated, Sony are now focusing on games which seems to be getting high quality. Something Wii games lack.
