PSP saved: Ghouls'n'Ghosts 4 on the way [side-scrolling 2D..

"Ghouls'n'Ghosts 4" aka Goku Makaimura aka Extreme Ghouls'n'Ghosts is
coming out for PSP only. it'll use a 3D polygon graphics engine for
visual effect, but it's strictly a SIDE-SCROLLING affair with 2D
gameplay, unlike the horrible (IMO) Maximo games on PS2.

from IGN:

"An exclusive PSP edition of Capcom's legendary platforming game,
directed by the original's creator Tokurou Fujiwara. The game makes use
of a 3D graphics engine, giving depth to the visuals, but plays in a
side-scrolling perspective and similar art design to stay true to the
original. Your goal is to work your way through side-scrolling stages,
defeating enemies and using your best platforming skills. The game lets
you build up your skills as you progress. You start off with just a
basic jump, but eventually gain a double jump and even the ability to
fly. You'll also earn lots of magic spells along the way. The game
promises a greater number of spells and weapons than ever before. New
for Goku Makaimura is non-linear gameplay. You're no longer on a fixed
path from start to end. The levels include branching points and even
warp points. By using a warp point, you can warp back to previous
levels and collecting items that you might have missed."
