WILD ARMS 3 GETS ITS FIRST EVER RERELEASE ON PSN THIS TUESDAY

Holy FUCK am i excited for this one. I owned it on the PS2 but it was lost with my games in a house fire and that thing is rare as rocking horse shit in bongland and if you like jrpgs you really need to check this one out.

Basically its wild west golden sun with some full metal alchemist flavour.
On the dying wild west jrpg world of Filgaia 4 'drifters' team up to go through puzzle heavy dungeons to save the world with fresh tweaks on the jrpg idea that were the first breath of fresh air i found in the genre since Vagrant Story.

I rarely recommend games on Holla Forums because the shill police are in full paranoia mode noawadays but if you have anything with psn that plays this get it. If this means we get a new Wild Arms i would flip my shit i love this series that much.

Or shit mustards go emulate it, its worth it for the unique flavor of the world alone.

Ps4 psn or ps3 psn?

All i've read so far is a psn rating by the ESRB and trophy support so i dont know. I hope its on both because everyone who can should try this if they never owned a ps2, but the ps4 is getting this wierd ps2 upscaled port period right now. Just the other day Manhunt, Bully and Max Payne got rereleased on PS4 only PSN, god knows why.

Still this shit would be perfect for the Vita.

Another question. Can i play wild arms 2 if i only played about 1/4th of wild arms 1 and not get lost in dialogue? I want to emulate it but i didnt get too far in 1 but i dont really want to replay it up to that point again.

and apparently they are also putting out Forbidden Siren, Primal, Okage and Ape escape 3 the same day.

Yes, theres some sequels that are more direct than others but for the most part are their own self contained stories.

Thanks fam, putting WA2 in my backlog to emulate.

True but these recent PS2 rereleases by sony arent just straight ports but touched up and bug fixed versions. The Max Payne version that came out last week for example has far cleaner textures than previous versions.
Which obviously some quality emulators can do this stuff to in terms of visuals but in this case its just nice to see a rare game from a series i loved but considered dead get a rerelease yknow?

Id also recommend Koudelka, its not tonally the same at all but was sold as a 'survival horror jrpg' and is a grim, gothic horror story that spawned the shadow hearts series.

Dropping by with these for those looking to get into the series.

I have to wonder if SJWs are going to latch onto the game over it having a female protagonist. On the one hand, for once they'd have some taste if they did. On the other, they'd likely infest the fanbase and I'd never be able to discuss it again.

All the games are stand alone, though it can be speculated that 1 and 3 are connected along with 2 and 4, due to recurring places/characters.

Pretty sure it's PS4 only; not sure if it might have Vita crossplay. Bit unclear as to if only certain PS4 versions of PS2 games allow for it it, or if all are supposed to natively.
