I heart Parappa. Its the game that really made me buy a PlayStation, and sideways changed my outlook on the world.

Maybe this will increase the price of the original on eBay, about to put my PS1 copy on there.

If supply and demand work this way, I'll make a fortune in Super Mario Bros. NES carts.

It's too bad the site makes it look like a port of the original.

Didn't Rodney Greenblat "retire" from the game industry?

Indeed he did. Which is a real shame because its mostly due to him being frustrated with Sony's incompetent managment.

REMAKE... not port.

With PSone Emulation 2 months away i can't believe Sony would authorize a 1st party "remake".

though those screens are looking nice.

I thought they were supposed to make PSone games downloadable. Oh man, this is classic Sony hilarity. :lol

4 players? What?

Did he really say something like that? Other than the Parappa/Lammy games and some of his own PC CD creations in the earlier 90s, it doesn't seem like he was particularly focused on games, so retiring from it sounds a bit odd.

Oh yeah! PaRappa the Remake. English version get.

It's hard to knock a plucky little puppy like Parappa the Rapper, but disappointment set in with this first PSP entry in the franchise almost immediately. It's not that this is necessarily a bad port of the classic PlayStation music game, it's just that all it there is to this is a port of the PlayStation game. There's a multiplayer mode added, but that's never been a strong suit of the series (it also wasn't playable here at TGS.) The rest of it is the same: the graphics, the stages, the music, the challenge, the design ... the one single disc in a series that's three deep.
