Midway classics on PSN, now with screens (and price)

The big favorite among the set of classic games Midway Games gave SOE the rights to bring to the PlayStation Network definitely is Mortal Kombat II… and how. So before we present some screens of MKII, Gauntlet II, Championship Sprint, Joust, and Rampart recently released to Gamespot, let’s head over and see what Gamespot has to say about a preview version of MKII first.

• The updated game still “wasn’t” online, though an online-capable version should go into testing soon. Hopefully the past tense Gamespot used means that the final release should be the online version. Hopefully that answers your question, jp.
• Button layout is set up in the traditional configuration, says Gamespot. They also say that the visuals and gameplay make this conversion “one of the best conversions of MKII” they’ve seen yet.
• To answer everyone who asked on pricing, starting with Demon Slayer, SOE reps confirmed that each title will go for US$ 4.99, and should hit the PlayStation Store in the “next few months” (no specifics on dates). Beats popping in quarter after quarter to see endings, right? Okay, the screens beckon.

LOTS more screens jump out of the past after the jump.
