PlayStation fans welcome the ‘Classics’ with nostalgic anticipation
A PlayStation fan on X said Sony’s July catalog was an ‘unreal selection.’ He expressed his excitement about the inclusion of Jeanne d’Arc in the upcoming mid-month additions. Multiple other PS fans, including Icey7, commented on Sony’s published July catalog, expressing their joy for the re-release of Jeanne d’Arc.
In response to PlayStations post on X, Marc claimed that July had been the best for Sony ‘in quite a while’ and was enthusiastic about finally getting to play Crisis Core: FF Reunion, which he could not afford to buy. He confessed that Sony’s July catalog included all the games he wished to play but didn’t own.
“Never got around to buying CC Reunion. Liked the Demo but price was still a little too high for me and I was playing Rebirth anyway. Glad to have this.”
–Marc
Another fan, FellOmen, who claimed to have played Remnant II on another platform, was still highly amused by Sony’s choice for July additions. The fan said they would ‘probably play Crisis Core and No More Heroes.’
