The latest issue of Japan’s Dengeki PlayStation magazine has revealed that Square-Enix is planning on bringing a plethora of classic PSone titles to the PlayStation Network.

Starting today, consumers will be able to chose from a set of six titles via the Japanese PlayStation Store, each game costing approximately JPY 600 to download. See below for a list of games currently available.

  •  Xenogears (Square)
  •  Einhander (Square)
  •  Astronoka (Enix)
  •  Rakugaki Showtime (Enix)
  •  Raystorm (Taito)
  •  Fighters Impact (Taito)


Dengeki reports that twelve games are currently planned for release, though it is currently unknown when the remaining six games will become available for download.

Stay tuned.

Xenogears would be fun to play.  I need some RPG's, and I heard this one was great!  I liked the Xenosaga games too, so this one needs to come to the US!

You can get Final Fantasy VII on PSP, all you have to do is have a really big mem stick and a copy of FFVII for PSone and then copy data across to Mem stick. But be warned that some people have had lags and stoppages in the game..... bu not all people.... majority were happy

I would like FF9 because I've never played it.  Something with that old-school look would be nice on the PSP.
