Banjo Kazooie

And

Tooie

:shock:

Your denial will blind you in this FACT. This is not matched. These 2 classics on Live blow away the competition.

Yes but it is no secret that Live Arcade destroys both PSN and Wii online in arcade classics.

But with these 2 WOW that's just GRAVY

9.6 and 9.5 for scores on these classics. And most agree these are freaking amazing classics. Not to shabby if you ask me.

I don't see why people will not just admit that this is just SICK and an awsome addition to the aready amazing Arcade games on Live.

Sorry but not everyone cares about 2 old games, they were pretty meh IMO, not a fan of Banjo.

The only thing I'll buy from XBLA will be Castle Crashers.

Well, I've played both games. I don't need to look at reviews to tell me what I think of them. And I would readily admit them as an "awesome addition" if I thought they where awesome games, but I don't.

Yes this was a decent score for MS considering most lemmings probely have never played these games. However if you are speaking of the downloadable classic games for consoles the Wii cannot be beat.

It's true that the 360's downloadable library is the most expansive and diverse so far thus deserving my respect, but using this alone to claim ownage is ill-advised.

This is why I like the way Giant Bomb calls it the XBLM, rather than arcade. Originals and other full game downloads like these are hard to see under an "arcade" umbrella. While it's true, as was pointed out, that Sony also has a classics section, thats the weakest link in their online store, at least outside of Japan. In the EU and NA. the MS Originals have already surpassed the slow hit and miss PSone classics in quality, (a lot of these games are by no means classic) and at the slow rate of relase from SCEA and SCEE, in quantity soon as well. MS gets at least one classic a month, PS3 is lucky to get one every three months outside of Japan.

I am actually let down with how many great games Sony has up for the PS Store in Japan compared to what is available in the West.

And I would love for MS to dip more into the back catalogue as well. These are great ways to get older games more exposure.

I also need a much larger HDD for my 360 now.

I agree. I admire SCEA's pursuit of original content, but this idea we can only have new original PSN games or Classics, not both, is simply silly. We CAN have both on PSN, MS has both on the 360. I'm also a little letdown with MS though, July only got one Original, and it's still widely available in bargain bins for less than the XBLM version. July would have been a great time for Shenmue 2, JSRF, or Panzer Dragoon Orta. The underappreciated gems of the Xbox lineup.

Very true. A DLC version of any of the Panzer Dragoon games would be huge. Are the original games in the series still costing a mint from Amazon and eBay?

I don't care how you slice it, PSN can't compete with XBLA or VC. Not only does it have a laughable number of games, but most of them are barely worth the price of admission. There are some really good ones, but VC and XBLA still trump it.

Siren is not so good, and Warhawk would be a stretch calling it a PSN title. Also, WipEout HD has been pushed back so farover a year. I have almost lost all hope of it coming out.

i love siren so far, wipeout hd has a realse date. warhawk was first to come out on the psn then blu-ray. same as bookie there. it will be on xbl then on dvd so i guess that not a xbla game then is it.

Three of the games you're listing are not available, and XBLA is adding several compelling games starting today with Geometry Wars 2, through the end of August. (Braid and Castle Crashers look fantastic) You also seem to forget you could be using Pixel Junk Eden in PSN's defense, that arrives tomorrow, or even existing games like Stardust, Tekken 5 Online, Everyday Shooter, and Pixel Junk Monsters. PSN is closing the gap, but right here and now, XBLM is the king of the hill.

When is Banjo the originals coming to DVD proper? The new one is, but I heard nothing of the original 2 coming to disc.

As for WipEOut HD, its had release dates a few times now. It was originally supposed to release Holiday 2007, then again in July, now its in Autumn.

although i do agree with you (strangely) those games only will appeal to a certain type of people, thats not a fact at all, its an opinion, lots of people would disagree with you and say that little big planet takes the entire cake this fall with what its been promising, thats an opinion just like yours, but please dont try and sell your opinion off as fact, itll just draw haters
