–personal observation:
Apparently the cover also identifies it as a 3D game? Amazing.
Why haven’t others done this yet :(
I wanted to say something about Falcom having enough resources to port something to the PS3 and not to the PC… but then I noticed the PSP Remaster logo. Which means they’re just emulating the PSP version (with higher res textures) on the PS3 and this requires no effort at all. Oh well.
But it was released for the PC….TWICE.

once for 2007 and once for 2009
Note the word ‘something’ in that first sentence. The implication was that they have enough resources to port TitS to the PS3, but not enough to port any of their PSP/Vita-only games to PC.
But that’s irrelevant now.
Given that the PC is largely a dead market for them and their last original PC title underperformed, I think it’s more a question of financial sense rather than resources.
Ok so PSP Remaster=No trophies. Probably not gonna see this in North America, because we never see PSP Remasters unless they’re part of HD Collections (God of War and MGS: Peace Walker). But I do like the 3D capability.
man I hope stores other than amazon carry this or falcom own store has it up for sale
