It’s the end of the month and that means Japan gets a new set of PsOne downloadable games. This month they get Pachinko compilations, dating sims and a high school horror game from Banpresto. The notable addition on this list is Athena: Awakening from the ordinary life, where you delve into the life of the King of Fighters star as a high school student. While most of these games are PSP and PS3 compatible, two of them are Playstation 3 only: Ape Escape and Sony’s cooking game Ore no Ryori. It’s obvious why Ape Escape only works on your PS3 Sony wants you to buy the PSP port, Sarugetchu P (i.e. Ape Escape: On the Loose). But why is Ore no Ryori PS3 only? Is Sony planning something after seeing Cooking Mama?
Edit: Nah. It's just that Ore no Ryori and Ape Escape require two analog sticks!
