Another round of PSOne titles hit the PlayStation Store in Japan today with five new additions to the PlayStation 3's game archives. Sony computer Entertainment Japan (SCEJ) has announced the update to the PlayStation Network.

The games included are Tall Unlimited (Hamster), Arcade Hits Raiden (Hamster), Gunners Heaven (SCEJ), Galaxy Fight (Sun Denshi), and Hard Edge (Sun Denshi). The downloads from the PS3 to the PSP costs JPY 525, or around US$ 4.47. The current PSOne title count for the Japan PlayStation Store is 36. A bit of a rundown on the titles:

Gunner's Heaven, if you didn't get it back then or was living under a rock for most of your life, is a platform action shooting game much like Metal Slug; it was also known as Rapid Reload in Japan. Hard Edge on the other hand is an action game with gameplay comparable to Resident Evil and with terrorists in a tall building plot. Tall Unlimited is a puzzle game where players need to create a tower within a certain time. Galaxy Fight is a fighting game once considered right up the ranks King of Fighters '95 and Street Fighter Alpha (they were all released on the same year).

Now, we'll have to wait for the update here which is hopefully soon. We'll keep you posted on the PSOne releases on the PlayStation Network. Stay tuned.

 » not first

lol, advertising stole your moment of glory.

um, did these games work before, or do they only work with the new firmware?

A) It's hilarious that we hacked-PSP users could play these well before legitimate users

B) It's a bit sad that Sony charges 5 bucks or less for a PSX game, while that same money will only get you a piddly NES title on the Wii Virtual Console. The same generation of hardware (N64) fetches twice the price!

all these downloadable PS1 games, I haven't played them yet and for five bucks I'm going to give them a try. This can be a good response to cheap DS games but more variety is needed, way to go SONY.

Its only looking worse and worse for them. The japanese ps1 store makes me drool but even if i got a ps3 (and i wont) i couldnt get those games just the lame ones for the US ps1 store. Why they feel the need to make a $600 middle man who does absolutely nothing for the psp a usb or internet connection cant do is beyond me. But then they also go and section off the stores so that even though the psp are the same and can play both i cant get my hands on japanese games just like before(on their region free systen). I like sony (prior to this kind of craziness) and really want to be a good consumer, but if im going to have to jump through hops to play games im willing to pay for the pirate flag will fly

Oh COME ON!
Galaxy Fight is an Neo-Geo MVS game, us homebrewers have been able to play that for months without large file-sizes of a PSX game, and without the price.
