New Capcom Classics Collection 2 announced for PS2 and XBox

Bloodreign · Post by **Bloodreign** » Wed May 10, 2006 6:30 pm

Finally Capcom unveiled a little news about a sequel to the original CCC, although no titles have been announced on the collection just yet.

Also the GBA looks to be getting a little loving as well.

Still no word about Taito Legends 2 at E3 that I know of, but Capcom shocked me a bit with this.

great, im a big fan of these "golden age" collections

plus, it means 22 all NEW titles, not just re-hashes of previously available stuff, which was basically 90% of the first volume

Post by **Ghegs** » Wed May 10, 2006 7:30 pm

Excellent. I'm still hoping they include the few exclusives to the PSP collection (Varth, Side Arms...) alongside the hopefully never-seen-a-port-before games.

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

But seriosly no more versions of SF2 in any form.

Nice.

Maybe we'll be lucky enough to get games like 1941 and 19XX in this next set, as well as Strider and The King of Dragons. Or maybe the two D&D games.

Here's the list of games included:

Side Arms
1941
Black Tiger
Strider
Knights of the Round
Super Street Fighter II Turbo
Three Wonders
Eco Fighters
Avengers
Tiger Road
Captain Commando
Last Duel
Mega Twins
Varth
Magic Sword
Quiz and Dragons
The Speed Rumbler
Block Block
King of Dragons
Street Fighter

I got these from a streamed video at http://www.gamespot.com/ps2/action/capc ... index.html

Oh, and Bloodreign, sorry for chasing you from forum to forum on this one. But I'm sure the game list is important to a lot of people.

If that lists holds up, those titles alone have me sold on the compilation

looks good, and tate modes where applicable please Capcom

Neon · Post by **Neon** » Thu May 11, 2006 6:41 am

Holy fucking monkey, Black Tiger. And SSFIIX. I'm sold.

Bloodreign · Post by **Bloodreign** » Thu May 11, 2006 7:51 am

I see they also threw Tiger Road on there, I've grown to like that little quirky game, and means waiting for it's release along with every game but Quiz and Dragons will be an exercise in futility (not that I don't emulate 19 of the 20 titles already on this list

), as it will be nice to play them on the big screen.

Keep the compilations coming, we need other companies to jump in mainly Konami and Irem.

am i the only one looking forward to the gba pack? i love strider and final fight, and i've never player the altered version of final fight or bionic commando. sounds like a lot of fun for a little dollar.

Thank you, Capcom.

The video PFG 9000 is talking about can also be downloaded at the URL he provided. Requires free registration to GameSpot.

Wow, that's awesome. Looks like the most tempting game of the year, what with ST (I really hope that Capcom finally makes a decent port of the game) and CapCom.

EDIT: Looks like every game in the PSP collection is in CCC2 (or CCC1). Excellent!

steveovig · Post by **steveovig** » Thu May 11, 2006 5:14 pm

Man, that list is completely fucked up. I was excited about this until I found out that it's exactly the same bunch of games that have already been released in one form or another. I was hoping CCC2 would be exclusive games not rehashed PSP ports.

Moved to main forum for shmups content.

Post by **BulletMagnet** » Thu May 11, 2006 6:09 pm

Not bad...still no 19XX (or Dimahoo or Progear, if those apply) though. Ah well, still a pretty nice selection.

Fenrir · Post by **Fenrir** » Thu May 11, 2006 6:42 pm

Haha, quiz n' dragons rules the known world

Galaxius · Post by **Galaxius** » Thu May 11, 2006 7:03 pm

I would have bought this compilation for Strider and Black Tiger alone.

It's also nice to see Tiger Road, as well.

Thanks for the listing, Pinky.

I somehow doubt Progear, 19XX or Loop Master will be out in a collection like this. On average the generation these comes from are about 10 years behind said games so unless they release a CCC5 then maybe appearances will be forth coming. IMO

I'm still quite satisfied knowing 1941 and Captain Commando are at my disposal on PS2 now.

Black Tiger, Quiz & Dragons: Respect.

Well, 19XX is from 1996, 1 year earlier than G-darius, which is available on Taito Collection, and also runs in superior hardware (I think).

Not that I am complaining or anything

. Only the original Street Fighter and Avenger are bad games on this compilation. Block Block is average, and everything else is pretty much excellent stuff

Side Arms...

Probably the sole reason I sold my PC-Engine Duo R.

I regret that sale now... but oh how I hated that game.

In every thread of every message board I've seen this posted (only about 3 admittedly) no-one gets excited about Three Wonders, which is one of my all time favourite arcade games.

WHY DOES NO-ONE REMEMBER MIDNIGHT WANDERERS!?!?!

WHERE IS THE LOVE FOR CHARIOT!?!?

WHY WAS DON'T PULL SO RUBBISH?!?!?!

x100000000000

So to conclude I wil buy this.

True, Progear alone got enough weight to be sold in seperate title.

Yes, I am sold too.

steveovig · Post by **steveovig** » Fri May 12, 2006 4:32 pm

Forgive me if this has been mentioned but it looks like the GBA version will include NES ports of games like Strider, Bionic Commando, and Mighty Final Fight. This version sounds great and it'll definitly be picked up by me at release.

Because most people who know about those games already own the Saturn and/or PSX ports?

Wasn't Chariot's original title Roosters?

Don't Cave still technically own the IP rights to Progear? Afterall, they created and distributed the cellphone Progear game, not Capcom. I would assume that much like the AVP-fiasco, Capcom couldn't port/print the game without the IP holder's consent.
