Now that I think about it I've never even seen the PSP game lurking around so that makes a lot of sense. @Levi - that’s a good point!

It makes sense, really. There would have to be only minimal changes to the control scheme, and the extra monsters could be an incentive to get people to buy a "graphically inferior" version. Plus, I can't really see PSP sales of a very niche game like this being high enough to merit a PSP version at all. So it really makes a lot of sense for the PS2 version to be a port-up of the PSP version. And let's not even talk about the DS version. Last screens I saw of that made it look like the most absolutely awful thing I've ever seen on the DS. Ever. Seriously, not exaggerating at all.

Still, it's a shame they probably have the game running on polycounts and assets that can be downgraded into PS2, but given the budget it's not a big surprise. I wish them luck. As for PS2, it can last as long as they want but please don't make Wii having to bear with it's graphics. at least this one is getting downgraded for the PS2, not ported over for the Wii.
