On the moon... they don't make Neo Kobe Pizza.

I loved Test Drive Unlimited 2 and the concept of a cross-country iteration of that idea sounded really fun, but then I tried the demo and every car offered felt like I was driving a shopping cart and I couldn't stomach it anymore. It actually pisses me off quite a bit because I see the game on sale a bunch and think "Maybe now I should get it!" only to remember how hard the demo turned me off.

I'm exactly the same. I wanted so much to love The Crew so badly, but it's pretty awful.

I've never played it, so I'm likely wrong, but isn't The Crew kind of like an RPG in the sense that you have to upgrade your cars and driving abilities over the course of the game, including handling, etc. I mean obviously that is a loving retarded mechanic for a driving game, but maybe the demo isn't a fully accurate picture?

Trophies for Wild Arms 3 just showed up, so that's probably the next PS2 classic release. Also Kinetica, but who cares.

The Crew is basically a MMORPG, and I loved it. I didn't think the controls were horrendous at all, and if you played driver San Francisco it controls the exact same way. it really is just a Driver San Fran 2

Yeah I've sunk two hours in and it's not that horrible. That prologue truck driving is awful but it gets better from there.

You can do coop in the racing pve events (I think it literally says pve in game) and coop stunt stuff with a crew.

Anyone wanna bounce with a crew in the crew? Add IneffiableFx and I'll play with you.

Yesssssss

Also, thank god there's no trophy for killing Arioch. What a lovely sidequest.

edit: wait, you don't have to defeat Arioch for any of those other ones, like getting all the Migrant Seals or all the books or something, right? I don't even remember what that horrible sidequest gives you

Like the only problem with Rayman Legends is that the music levels are so good that you just sort of get annoyed there aren't like twice as many of them.

Don't click that link if you've already bought Rayman. It's such a nice surprise when you eventually get to it that you'll be sorry it was spoiled for you by a Youtube video of the whole, amazing level.

Seconding this. It was magical. I absolutely loved the last one. It's so wel done. I still replay rayman legends now and then again just for the last level. And sometimes the weekly challenges.
Are there plans to create a new rayman game?
Origins and legends were amazing.

I loved Origins, but was on the fence about basically just buying Origins again, because I didn't think anything would top the Tricky Treasure levels. Seeing this convinced me 100%.

Origins is really good, obviously, but Legends is also really loving good. It's totally worth playing through both.

Rayman Legends has a lot of unlockable levels from Origins. Not sure if they're all in there, but there are a bunch. Such great value.

PS1 games and PS2 games on PS3 only are called "Classics" and you can see them all (and filter from there) here in North America: https://store.playstation.com/#!/en-ca/classics/cid=STORE-MSF77008-CLASSICS
There's a separate "PS2 on PS4" section under PS4.

They have their own section in the sidebar of the games page but idk if you can search it might be browse only. Wikipedia has a nearly correct list if you just want to check whats there.

Thanks, sorry should have specified the EU store, for some reason the separate PS1/2 classics section has been gone for years here. Guess I'll check the list in Wikipedia.

It honestly looks sort of plain and boring, but I was a big fan of the original as a kid, so I'll probably end up getting it anyway.

It helps that you can unlock the original in the new one. I think they even said you can replace the new soundtrack with the original's too after unlocking it.
