Huh, that's really odd.
Don't know why the original version isn't on PSOne classics, after all, UmJammer Lammy is there...

Re: Together Retro: PaRappa The Rapper
I played PaRappa the Rappa on that demo disc when I first got my playstation, but I was always awful. Maybe it's time to give this game another shot.
Re: Together Retro: PaRappa The Rapper
Same here, I remember playing it on a demo disc at my cousin's house when we were kids and i sucked so much at the game, but now I really wanna get it and be a part of the Together Retro club!samsonlonghair wrote:I played PaRappa the Rappa on that demo disc when I first got my playstation, but I was always awful.

Re: Together Retro: PaRappa The Rapper
yeah I'm kind of bummed. I was looking forward to revisiting this game for $6 when I thought it was on PSN as a PSOne Classic, but eh, not really into the idea of paying the $25+ it usually goes for to get a physical copy on PS1.CFFJR wrote: I saw this myself last night.

The rhythm in Parappa is a little off. It takes a while to get used to itBogusMeatFactory wrote:Started playing this last night...stuck on the second stage. This game has the same issue that I had with Space Channel 5. I feel like my inputs are just a bit off from the beat and rhythm. If I wait just a fraction of a second after, it tends to work right, but if I do it right on it seems to miss.
I completed this game a loooong time ago and both it and its sequel had the same issue. It takes some time to get use to that, but I love the game none the less.

Re: Together Retro: PaRappa The Rapper
I'm having the same issue. The game doesn't like to make clear what "rappin' good" actually constitutes. I'll give it another bash or too though. The music is really catchy.BogusMeatFactory wrote:Started playing this last night...stuck on the second stage. This game has the same issue that I had with Space Channel 5.

Re: Together Retro: PaRappa The Rapper
Same here man. I'm really debating if I want to buy it at that price. If it were say, $15, I'd go for it.noiseredux wrote:yeah I'm kind of bummed.

What's funny (maybe obnoxious would be more accurate) is a hard copy of the psp version is very affordable on ebay. Its cheaper than the psn version at under 10 bucks.

Re: Together Retro: PaRappa The Rapper
I played the heck out of the demo of this game back in the day but never got the full version until about a year ago. It's been sitting on my shelf since I got it and this seems as good of an excuse as any to play it.
