Just how does Capcom's re-release of two twenty year old side-scrolling beat-em-ups fare in modern times? Check the review to find out.
Carl Williams writes, "If you are reading this then you are probably a fan of retro games. Just taking a stab in the dark there. Well, we just found out that Capcom, one of the better retro supporting companies out there, has this package with Humble Bundle full of Playstation 3 and Playstation 4 games. You better hurry and grab this one because time is running out."
I have to agree. I wish companies would do more porting of their previous digital only games such as Final Fight Double Impact over to the PS4. I want to get a Playstation but 3 seems on the way out and 4 is still too new for a lot of what I am interested in.
I wish they would port their full classic line brawlers from the 90s. Man, they made some good games back then.
Napalm, check out their PSP Reloaded and Remixed collections. Great value for the money and full of their core retro games. I am not sure what consoles they released those collections on but I am sure PS3 and Xbox 360 were in there.
Well, we know that is not going to happen anytime soon, at least not till people stop buying PS3 games and such. Sad. I wish it was backwards compatible too- I would buy a PS4 immediately if it worked with at least the digital stuff from the PS3.
I wish Sony would get the licenses for all the classic arcade games from the 80s and 90s for the PS4.. I dont see why they wouldnt want to make money? I miss those brawlers like xmen, tmnt, etc.. So many great games people are forced to play on mame
The problem with that idea is that a lot of those companies are now defunct and no one really knows who owns the rights to what game. Then in cases like X-Men, it is multiple companies involved (the engine would be Konami's while the actual X-Men license would be Marvel's) and sometimes none of the companies involved are interested in working together again for whatever reason.
I wish it would happen too though.
Today Humble Bundle launched a new bundle with a lot of games by Capcom for PS4 and PS3.
Considering both Resident Evil games are $20 each on PS4, and considering the entire bundle is $15, it's actually a good deal for PS4 AND PS3 owners.
So looked through the FAQ and the guidelines and I don't see that I'd be violating anything by doing this (didn't think so but safer to check). If I'm wrong, sorry.
So I bought this humble bundle and I already have a few of the titles, So I figured I'd leave those codes peppered around N4G comments and well, first come first served. Hope whomever gets them enjoys them.
First, Okami: 2HR6-29NP-4RLP
Had to keep resident evil. that was the only reason I went that high in the bundle.
Though I'll never buy street fighter V out of principle (and I don't care for fighting games) so if you want 45% off, here you go: 2AM2HD7HH2
Thanks, I appreciate your generosity. I understand you can't share Resident Evil, that's definitely the gem of the collection! Thanks again, you're too kind.

According to Microsoft’s Major Nelson latest tweet, the latest round of backwards compatible games are here. If you own any of the following titles (or purchase them), you will be able to download them now:
Deus Ex: Human Revolution — Director’s Cut
Final Fight: Double Impact
Faery: Legends of Avalon
Frogger 2
Puzzlegeddon
Backwards compatibility is starting to blow up. I bet publishers are seeing increased sales from older titles.
lame..no Black Ops 1
Deus Ex HR was always on there this is just the Directors Cut.
Anyone underwhelmed about BC titles lately have to understand that MS is probably waiting for BC blowout during their E3 press conference. Black Ops, Bioshock and other big titles have already been confirmed for BC at some point. Read Dead and other long rumored. I'll be very surprised if we don't see many of the most requested BC games announced at E3.
Apparently they release it just like this since they did a good job! :)
I'm seriously tempted... does anyone know how much this is? My guess is $15-20 since that seems to be the magic number...
Twenty year old games that are still playable... That's crazy. But what if you have to take a piss while playing co-op? That's heartless Capcom, we're human now -- we need to PAUSE.
