Classic PSP titles being revived on PS3 in HD. Monster Hunter leads the way.

Sony will be bringing classic PlayStation Portable titles to PlayStation 3 as part of a new PSP Remaster lineup. The company announced the series today along with its first major release.

PSP Remaster offers PSP titles remastered for play on the PS3. The games are spruced up with full HD visuals, compatibility with Dual Shock 3, PS3 exclusive content, 3D support, and other features.

The PSP and PS3 versions of the game also share save data. Sony says that this could allow you to play a game on the PSP while on the go, then continue playing when you return home.

The PS3 versions are also compatible with Sony's Ad Hoc Party for PlayStation Portable service for network play. This free PS3 app normally allows local play PSP titles to use the PS3 as a proxy for true online play.

The series will kick off first in Japan through sales of Blu-ray Disc titles, Sony said. The wording of Sony's statement suggests that the series will also be released internationally and will also see some games offered in download form. The press release did not explicitly mention these areas, though.

For the series' first title, Sony has a biggie. As detailed earlier today, Capcom will release a PS3 version of Monster Hunter Portable 3rd under the name Monster Hunter Portable HD. The 4.5 million selling PSP title will feature 3D support, HD visuals and shared save files with the PSP, and will see release this summer.

FUCK YEA

HD MONSTER HUNTER

HD DISSIDIA

HD CRISIS CORE

AND ABOVE ALL

HD METAL GEAR SOLID: PEACE WALKER

Im happy with this, being able to play the games I already love on PS3 with a decent controller will be fantastic. Being able to use the second joystick for camera use will be magical in games like Peace Walker, providing that Konami gets in on the deal like Capcom is.

Waiting on more information though like the cost etc, hopefully you don't have to pay too much to experience the games you probably already own on PSP.


sauce

i don't really like the idea though, first, those games are designed without LR2,3 buttons, plus the 2nd analog. it's weird not to use em.
2nd, for most of em the content are just too small for PS3 =/
well if they have online support i wouldn't mind (though i don't count on it, mostly will be those RPG only, like crisis core and Yggdra or something)

i doubt they will release only Dissidia but D012

crisis core would be nice.

I don't play my PSP much these days. Hmm, HD FFII Anniversary?

i can't wait!! :D
also i like how u spelt it sauce. :3
that made me lol.

apparently MHP3 will be the first one to be remastered.
I'm game.

Monster Hunter looks good so far:
