I read a review Crimson Ryan made of it and that's one of the things that convinced me. Thanks for reassuring my purchase. :)

And 10$ new is too hard to pass up also.

Only drawback is voice acting is beyond bad but you get used to it after a bit.

Yeah that's what pretty much every review says.

It's one of those games that isn't particularly original, but its sense of charm is just far too endearing for you not to love it.
Unless you happen to be one of those snobs that hated it because it didn't turn out just like Ico or SotC.
But they can all go suck a butthole and die.

:shock: That's a lot of buttholes. Death by ass.

Just like the Jak collection, I already have all the games, but as a fan I just had to get to get this anyway.
And the HD upgrade looks excellent. Somehow they still come off as kind of impressive for their age. The textures, animation, and designs were always very nice to begin with anyway. It's great seeing it all upscaled and tightened up. Unfortunately, as with all releases like this, the pre-rendered videos are still standard def and look kind of poo-y. But everything in-game looks fantastic.
Damn shame they didn't include Deadlocked though. Would have been nice to actually have all of the mainline PS2 releases included. But as with the Jak collection and its removal of Jak X, I suppose it's just considered too much of a "side-story" for them to have bothered.
Still a shame.

I thought one of those games was going to be just a download voucher.

Nah, there's only a download voucher for a demo of the new Sly Cooper game. Might try that in a bit. Liked the first two Sly games. Never played the third. Might have to get that HD collection as well.

Deadlocked HD is coming seperately if it's any consolation to you..

If it were physically-released it might be, but I'm sure that's not the case.
Would have been cool if they planned to upscale Deadlocked along with the two PSP games on one disc. Not happening, but it would have been cool anyway, having every single bit of the series on PS3.
