is this the psx version or the combined psp one?

 

[Shadow Ranger]

Never played these originally, and was about to pull out 1, so this is awesome news!

 

[falconxcrunner09]

Buying both. Never played a Suidoken before

 

[Aeana]

Now I'll have to find something else to guilt trip Victor Ireland about.

Maybe I'll just go back to Tengai Makyou 4th Apocalypse.

 

[Uchigatana]

Holy shit!!!! Buy the game, guys!!

 

[Voliko]

PSP version? Either way, It's about time, holy shit

 

[Paertan]

Already own them. But I am buying both as soon as they are available!

 

[SatelliteOfLove]

Buying both. Never played a Suidoken before

Boy, is your ass in for a goddamn treat!

[TheSeks]

Suikoden 1 has been on PSN forever.

I am glad to see the sequel come around here again, though.

This. Though if they "Konami license tax" it above $10, it's going to be dead in the water outside of niche "OMG SUIKODEN 2" fans.

 

[E the Shaggy]

I've been waiting for Suikoden 2 for years. Fucking finally.

 

[djtiesto]

That's some awesome news! Suikoden 2 is one of the best games I've ever played...

Sadly I'm currently playing through 4 and its garbage

 

[Matrix XII]

Wow I can't believe this!

I haven't even played either game and I finally get the chance to.

Life is good.

 

[air jordans for dogs]

Ive never played it but im guessing its pretty good judging by the reactions

 

[Famassu]

This was one of the first things I asked when they started asking for what we want localized. You can all thank me.

Suikoden 2 is best ps1 jrpg. Not even joking

 

[AniHawk]

That's some awesome news! Suikoden 2 is one of the best games I've ever played...

Sadly I'm currently playing through 4 and its garbage

a buddy of mine loves the series and apparently the consensus is that 4 is the worst in the bunch.

Thank you.

 

[Count of Monte Sawed-Off]

One of the best JRPGs (and games in general) ever.

 

[opticalmace]

Good timing, I just finished P3P. Will buy.

 

[cj_iwakura]

Now I'll have to find something else to guilt trip Victor Ireland about.

Maybe I'll just go back to Tengai Makyou 4th Apocalypse.

He probably knew this was happening.

And I still think his announcement is TMIV.

 

[rjc571]

Fuck, my PS1 copies are gonna be worthless now.

 

[Sir_Crocodile]

These are the PSX versions? Was hoping for the psp ones with the widescreen changes.

 

[falconxcrunner09]

Boy, is your ass in for a goddamn treat!

I'm really excited. Jared Petty from IGN was prasing it heavily a couple months ago when 2 was rated on ESRB.

 

[Kntj]

thanks

 

[Trojita]

OMG WUT

Awesome news.

 

[jj984jj]

YAS! SUIKODEN II finally on PSN!

 

[Lax1085]

i really enjoyed the first one and the 3rd one, never played 2.

 

[chaosblade]

Finally. Definitely picking this up once it hits.

Now I'll have to find something else to guilt trip Victor Ireland about.

Maybe I'll just go back to Tengai Makyou 4th Apocalypse.

Didn't he say they were working on getting the Lunar games onto PSN? There's still that!

 

[SolidSnakex]

Fuck, my PS1 copies are gonna be worthless now.

If you're talking about resell value, then no they aren't. People always want the original versions of a game. Chrono Trigger on the SNES still costs a lot more on eBay than any other version of the game.

 

[Easystride]

Dang, shouldn't have sold my ps3 and Vita.

 

[Seik]

i really enjoyed the first one and the 3rd one, never played 2.

Well you're in for a ride because it's the best out of those three.

 

[arue]

I wasn't expecting this AT ALL. Thank you Konami for finally listening to our wishes.

 

[flohen95]

Fuck, my PS1 copies are gonna be worthless now.

Are you kidding?

 

[Aeana]

He probably knew this was happening.

And I still think his announcement is TMIV.

Vic said that Suikoden 2 was coming to PSN years ago and I've been holding it over his head ever since.

 

[dorkkaos]

Day one. Konami..... day one

 

[IrishNinja]

still one of my top 5 JRPGs of all time, even with the localization mess - this is such fantastic news, and i hope it drives the price of the physical copies down too, more people need to experience this fantastic game

konami's still terrible tho

also i got mine back loose so if anyone stumbles across even a replica manual/case, holla

 

[RPGCrazied]

Everyone buy it. I want Suikoden VI to come out.

 

[PixyJunket]

PSN and Vita? What is that supposed to mean?

Good news. Although I made a promise to a friend that I would play both if II ever went digital, so I'll need to be a man and honor that promise.

 

[Gillian Seed]

Amazing, but why are they announcing this when Suikoden has been on the PSN for a while now? This must be the PSP version of both games.

 

[Meowster]

OMG the greatest RPG of the PS1 gen is coming!

 

[Malio]

"PSN and Vita"

So...for PS3 and PS4 as well?

 

[Count of Monte Sawed-Off]

Amazing, but why are they announcing this when Suikoden has been on the PSN for a while now? This must be the PSP version of both games.

Yeah, I'm wondering if it's the PSP version of the games. If that's the case it would be kind of neat to see if the music bug from the original US PSX release would be gone.

 

[IrishNinja]

Everyone buy it. I want Suikoden VI to come out.

this is usually DarkSchala's territory, but...didn't the director leave a while back?
i don't know that what's left is gonna give us anything better than the majesty that was V

 

[rocketskates]

Everyone buy it. I want Suikoden VI to come out.

Even though they've pretty much said the series is sitting dead, I hope that the reactions and sales from this sparks some kind of renewed interest in them.

 

[Count of Monte Sawed-Off]

"PSN and Vita"

So...for PS3 and PS4 as well?

PS3 but not 4.

 

[Admiral Woofington]

"PSN and Vita"

So...for PS3 and PS4 as well?

Unless they outright specify PS4 always know that PSN means 'PS3'

 

[Tizoc]

This. Though if they "Konami license tax" it above $10, it's going to be dead in the water outside of niche "OMG SUIKODEN 2" fans.

Just give them your fucking money. Good games are worth it no matter the price.
This game could be $20 and I'd still buy it.
So wait this gonna be the PSP ver.? On the plus side we could expect a GOOD localization, but wasn't the visual performance not well regarded upon its initial japanese release?

 

[B.K.]

Amazing, but why are they announcing this when Suikoden has been on the PSN for a while now?

Or they may be making Suikoden I downloadable directly to the Vita. As far as I know, you still have to download the game on a PS3 and then transfer it to Vita.

 

[themagicalkitsune]

But what about Europe
