Full Game List Revealed for PlayStation Classic

Last month, Sony announced that they were going to release the PlayStation Classic much like Nintendo has done with the NES and SNES. What we didn't know at the time was the full list of 20 games that Sony hoped to include at release. Thankfully, we know now what those games are.

North America will get the following 20 games:
• Battle Arena Toshinden™
• Cool Boarders 2
• Destruction Derby

• Final Fantasy VII
• Grand Theft Auto
• Intelligent Qube
• Jumping Flash!
• Metal Gear Solid
• Mr. Driller
• Oddworld: Abe’s Oddysee®
• Rayman
• Resident Evil™ Director’s Cut
• Revelations: Persona
• Ridge Racer Type 4
• Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo®
• Syphon Filter
• Tekken 3
• Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six
• Twisted Metal
• Wild Arms

Hey, that's a great list of games! If you are in Japan, your list is looking a bit different.

• Arc the Lad
• Arc the Lad 2
• Armored Core
• Ridge Racer Type 4

  Almost predictably, i'd want a mixture of the two, though i'm in the UK and i wonder if the list will be different for Europe.
  
  Personal notes:
  Destruction Derby 2 is SO MUCH BETTER than the first one.
  G-Darius is one of my favourite PS1 games and will be Japan only.
  I like Tekken 2 more than 3, but realise that 3 added a lot of important mechanics.
  I didn't realise Rainbow Six was important enough on PS1 to be here, i'm only aware of the PC and N64 versions.
  I don't know if Parasite Eve is any good, but it seems like quite an important PS1 game and am surprised it's Japan only.
  I'm very happy to see Syphon Filter again.

  Parasite Eve did well, and I'm sad to see it's not in the North American version.
  
  I also wished we had Arc the Lad and SaGa games. I prefer Tekken Tag Team tournament, but I guess people wanted 3. Sad to see Einhander was ignored. Also surprised to see Tomb Raider 2 and Parappa The Rapper wasn't part of this, and yet... I don't care for either of those games.
  
  Almost felt disappointed for no DDR games, but... No dance pad either. What about Beatmania or other Bemani Gam... No peripheral controller... Time Cris... No GunCon... Never mind.
  
  I'm also confused about Rainbow Six's inclusion. I really don't see what's so popular about the PS1 version. There were better choices.
  
  Twisted Metal is something North America should be proud of, so I'm glad that's in. I prefer GTA 2 over 1. And Hot Shots/Everybody Golf would've been nice.
