Really, Sony's promising more PSone games. Really.
How many times have you played CoolBoarders? How 'bout Coolboarders 2? That's pretty much all you'll find on the PlayStation Store if you're looking for a PS1 retro fix. While Japan has an overwhelming of retro titles available for download, the rest of the world has been slow to follow suit. Wouldn't it be nice to download Final Fantasy VII? Or Klonoa? Or Metal Gear Solid? There's so many titles we can think of off the top of our heads.Well, John Koller is promising the situation will change. Seriously. Really. "Yes, we are working on further PSone additions to the PS Store and should see those launch shortly," he told MTV Multiplayer.
We'll believe you when we see 'em, Koller.

Firmware v5.02 is out now
Another day, another firmware. We kid, we kid -- but as we announced two days ago, there is another update available for you to download. Firmware v5.02 doesn't appear to do much, other than "improves system software stability during use of some features, including the PlayStation Store."
European PSN Store releases for November 20th

Dissidia's Communication Mode detailed
In the latest issue of Weekly Famitsu, the Communication Mode in Dissdia is explained. Players begin by waiting in an Online Lobby that is capable of accommodating 16 players. Each player can create their own profile called a Friend Card -- one of the functions of this card is it allows the game to keep track of your how you play and creates a "ghost" of you. You can then transfer this "ghost" to a friend's game and they can fight a character controlled by the A.I. that imitates your fighting style. The scan also shows the EX modes of Cloud (who wields the Ultima Weapon) and Sephiroth (as the One-winged angel). Lastly, adhocParty will be supported. The rest of the scans are here.
In related news, V Jump published some new art from Dissidia, the most striking of which is the above poster featuring all the characters in the game. Unlike other artwork from the game, this one is rendered in CG. Check out the scans at VideogamerX.

Soul Eater becomes anime fighting game
Not much is known about this adaptation, but we doubt much more needs to be known. Check out Famitsu for screenshots -- as seems standard for PSP fighting games, the screens sure do look pretty. Now, the question remains: what are the odds this will ever see light of day out of Japan?
