I love the golden era of PS One RPGs. I recal so many games from that time with such fond feelings. One of them was easily Alundra, an action RPG that I plowed many hours into back in the day. I may get to relive those wonderful hours according to Siliconera, who report that Arc the Lad is also coming as a PS One re-release. Cool!
The ESRB has listed both titles as coming to the PlayStation 3, but no word on when yet, of course. We'll keep you posted, but we expect to see them on the trusty PSN by the time the year is out. I'm all for the old school RPGs. Holla!

Great game.
I was around 8 when I first played the thing! lol
Even though I own the Arc the Lad Collection I'm seriously tempted to get Arc, and I know that I'll be getting Alundra. I loved the first Alundra it's to bad the second one fell so far from the first.
I'm still holding out for Legend of Dragoon and Parasite Eve 1+2.
YAY!
The release of Alundra means all they need is Suikoden 2 and I'll be completely satisfied. Come on, guys. I've never played it. I have every other Suikoden. They could be played in a row!
Gotta get it on PSN for sure.
No. Clearly not. This Colette is clearly an imposter, because I know for a fact that the real Colette only posts on Tomopop. So there.
Are these two RPGs perhaps early Playstation games that wouldn't look out of place on a Super Famicom? And should I care? I'm not heartless, but I've only heard those titles in the more cultish of hardcore gamesnerd circles, and have never bothered to 'do the research'.
I got stuck somewhere too.
Fuck those precision jump puzzles.
It's a pity there was never a sequel to Alundra though.
I just played through Alundra again earlier this year and it's still amazing (and controller-twistingly hard at times). Great soundtrack too. It's amazing how sprite-based art holds up over the years so much better than polygons.
Arc the Lad was one of those on my "will buy eventually" pile. Now I will.
Where the frick is Tomba!?!
