There are difficult games and then there are difficult games. I'm not talking difficulty that you can manage at some point(s), like God of War or Ninja Gaiden (Xbox). I'm talking about difficulty that causes you to physically abuse… well, everything in plain sight.
Ghosts 'n Goblins is one of those games that tests your patience and hasty reflexes as you battle your way through zombies, demons, boogeymen, and whatever the hell else the game throws at you, in an attempt to – get ready for this people – rescue a princess. I'm pretty sure that 99.9% of you out there are familiar with this NES classic and will be glad to read that the Ultimate version – which was released on UMD disc for the PSP in 2006 – will be available on PSN… for the PSP… for a second time (only this time, it's a download).

Jerry from BagoGames states, "There are a lot of great horror games being released but Capcom also has quite the collection in their vault that I'd love to see them open for new games."
Absolutely. I am amazed they have sat on the IP for so long without doing anything since the ps2.
Come on Capcom!
Sequels weren't as good as original in my opinion. Even though the third game has Jean Reno in it! But it's more than time for a new one. Even if they had an outside studio do it. They did that with DmC. Regardless it's time for new Onimusha!
I agree, the series did slightly decline with each sequel.
But seeing as Capcom haven't done anything original since Dragons Dogma, I can't see them bringing Onimusha back anytime soon unless funded by Sony or MS as an exclusive.
I think Platinum games or Ninja Theory could do a good job with the series. There is no Dante design for fans to get triggered about this time around.
Good article. I didn't know Inafune was a co-creator on onimusha. He's a legend but I haven't gotten into anything he's made since he left.
I would buy a new onimusha. Nioh took full advantage of that premise and it's fantastic. A new Dino crisis would be cool as well.
Fully agree on Haunting Ground. It was a severely underrated horror that was panned more for the way Fionna dressed than actual gameplay elements. A great story with demented but memorable characters, gameplay that was pretty much the understudy for the Amnesia titles and its all orchestrated on an great engine that loads once or twice for the duration for the whole game. I wish that it was on PSN due to the ludicrous pricing it normally has, both stores and online, preventing more players from experiencing this masterpiece......
From Vampires to Mavericks to Blinky, Inky, Pinky and Clyde. Sony's PSP had a vast library of titles targeted towards retro gamers. Here, I take a look at ten fantastic remakes of classic games. Keep in mind that in order to be applicable for this list, the original games must have been released during the 16-bit era or earlier. Anyway, let's start this look back at some of the best retro remakes ever produced for portable play.
I own and have played almost every game on this list. All outstanding choices!
its been on the psn for a while now. i was gonna buy it until i seen it was for psp.
This is several months old
Please nobody waste your money.
It's not that it's a bad game because it's an awesome game.
There's just some things that mortals like you and me aren't meant to do though. Completing ghouls and goblins is one of them.
I have beaten all the ghost n goblins, ghouls n ghosts, super ghouls n ghosts with no problems, I am sure this will be no different.
I don't know about the older games, because I never played them, but I played this one on my PSP, and while it was difficult-that stupid dream world where you're moving on a cloud was particularly frustrating-I eventually got all the rings and beat the game. Of course, you're asked to do it again, but I haven't gotten around to beating it again. (Not sure what happens after that. Stupid cloud level.) Can someone who's played all of them tell me how this Ghosts 'n Goblins game compares to the originals? I'm kinda curious.
