They're actually restoring the online component of Up Your Arsenal?! Wow! That's actually pretty awesome.
If I've got a PS3 again when this comes out, I'll definitely be picking it up ASAP.

Oh god, they lost the Deavid Soul tracks?! MILLER BALL BREAKERS, NOOOOO.

As for the other licensed tracks, this was the game that introduced me to my favorite rap group ever, Jurassic 5. So it'll be somewhat bittersweet not having that in. But, as an above commenter said, custom soundtracks, hell yes. And I believe someone on Youtube has put the Jet Set Radio level mixes- i.e., how the songs sounded in-game. Which makes it even better.

Still, Miller Ball Breakers is one of the signature songs in the game for me. Damn shame they couldn't get it back.

This doesn't surprise me too much, but I'm fine with it.

As for levels from 3 and 4, I'd say Airport and Skater Island from 3, and Alcatraz, Kona, and the Shipyard from 4.

Considering what Valve can do with continual patching, this is the better choice. I would've enjoyed playing with some console buddies, but it's not a huge loss.

@Jgr9 I never was a huge fan of the original- improvements made by Going Commando spoiled me, I think- but it's a solid title.

I'd say this:
GC > UYA > ACiT > ToD > 1 > Deadlocked > Q4B
Haven't played A4O simply because my PS3 got a YLOD a while back. But I'm tempted to switch 1 and Deadlocked.

And honestly, pretty much all of the full titles are completely solid games that deserve a look from anybody and everybody. I simply say that Going Commando and Up Your Arsenal are two of my favorite games ever. A Crack in Time was a hugely great title in my opinion- easily the best on the PS3.

@Ballistic H I'm surprised they didn't make an April Fool's joke by having a mocked-up ACiT cover with the Plumber's backside on it.

@Helghast102 I played online R&C3 multiplayer a single time.

It was pretty good.

Well it's about damn time! Going Commando has always been my favorite title in the series, and arguably my favorite game ever. Up Your Arsenal is an incredibly close second. Once I've got a new PS3 (or if this comes out on Vita as well, a PSVita) I'll definitely pick this up, if only to play those two top-notch titles again.

@ranhalt "Collection" is a word I'd consider more... elegant than, say, "dual pack" or something of the like. I'd imagine that's about the only reason.

@bgardner The fact that I can't physically get to my Gamestop until Wednesday is why I said Wednesday. Trust me, if I could I'd play it Tuesday.
