Jet Moto??? Why is all this energy being spent on garbage games? Why is it that Japan has RE2 but we get Jet Moto. Is there some licensing agreement that im just ignorant about?
I think Sony should be doing better with PSN. Don’t get me wrong. The free part beats live any day, but as far as the classics go…we can do better than Jet Moto.

devil may cry demo is pretty ace :D ill leave the rest for the ‘impressions’ article
good to finally see a good game finally crop up on the uk/eu store after waiting a while
when the ps3 comes to classics, it isn’t very good (not compare to japan anyway) but the calibre in which the new downloadable games are, i think there at a different par from the xbox live original games

Syphon Filter is only for the PSP, thus it will only be on the PSP Store.
