So it's just a PS2 port.

It's going to be shit and you jolly well know it.

Looks almost as good as Shenmue.

I don't mind PS2 ports as long as they're:

a. well done ports (including bug fixes from previous versions);

b. they have a good helping of additional contents, especially when we get the game six months to a year later (i.e. unlike the GC Splinter Cell games which had no additions except for some throw away connectivity functions in addition to the removal of online modes) - note RE4 on PS2, that's how you make up for later ports;

c. it isn't a port of a lousy game to begin with (I'll take a port of MGS2 and 3 over a new game like Elebits - sorry Elebits fans, seeing the stark contrast of having Elebits for Wii vs. MGS4 for the PS3 as Konami's first game for each system doesn't bode well for their so-called support on the Wii if the Cube is anything to go by).

I'm going to consider getting this, the control system looks quite decent.

That's exactly what this is not, it has new levels and missions and new features that were not available in the earlier versions, the Don's edition is also slightly different. LS

He's talking graphically, not content wise.

I think...

Actually I believe EA said that the graphics are scaled down versions of the PS3 build.

So the graphics though, they're better than servicable, it's the controls I'm interested in. They sound great.

Now all I want is Sega to take those ideas and make a new Streets of Rage game!!!

Is it just me that's sick of mission-based open 3D environment games and hankers after an action packed linear arcade brawler?

I agree lol, this game will be all about the cool controls, like bottle smashing on innocents heads and shooting pedestrian people in the face. with the remote. LS Smilie

Anybody saw the new screenshots of Medal of Honour Vanguard on the Wii, now they are truely piggin.

Mike Gee of iZINE said, "...The Verve, as he [Richard Ashcroft] promised, had become the greatest band in the world. Most of the critics agreed with him. Most paid due homage. The Verve were no longer the question mark or the clich�. They were the statement and the definition."
