Cool! There's even going to be a GOG version!

I'm anxiously awaiting this too. Still no news on a release date?

still "TBA 2012" in most website.

They better hurry up then, the Wii is going to become obsolete soon.

You know it's fun to see modern gaming concepts done in a retro style. Here we have a throwback to 2D style GTA games. Mark of the Ninja was a 2D take on modern stealth games and was so good some people are calling it the best stealth game they've played

2D still has a lot to offer in smart hands

Sorry dude. That's why I like having multiple consoles. I can play any thing, any time. Fucking things are expensive though, that's why I still don't have a Vita.

On another note, I wonder how the reviews will be on this one. A lot of retro style games or retro re-releases have been received poorly or just with a lukewarm response this year. Games like Double Dragon Neon, Hell Yeah! Wrath of the Dead Rabbit, Nights into Dreams HD, Lollipop Chainsaw, and Jet Set Radio HD all come to mind. Critics aren't big on retro these days.

I'm getting it regardless. I've seen gameplay footage and it looks and sounds great. Plus, the developer seems like a cool dude

Anyone know if the PS3/Vita versions are bundled like some releases?

I know a lot of guys from Kotaku and Polygon are excited for this one so I'd wager it will get a fair shake.

Yeah, if you buy one you get the other. I'm planning on getting it for PS3, but damn those PC exclusive pre order bonuses are tempting. You basically get a box and instructions. Closest thing to an actual physical release you're gonna get. I could easily run this on my PC, but I've already got my PS3 hooked up to the big TV and wanted to play it that way
