    Must-See Old School Arcade Games on PSN/XBL


    The Playstation Network and Xbox Live Marketplace have provided game developers with a way to offer cheap, downloadable games to customers. Many of these downloadable games are old classics, given spruced-up graphics and online capability.

Here’s a list of “old school” games that would be welcome additions for sports gamers.

      Great call murph17 - NHL 94 set the bar. I had forgotten about Arch Rivals, nothing like throwing a punch as your opponent goes to take a shot. Mutant League Football and Hockey were great as well, only semi-sports game I could get my brother to play back in the day.

          Ice Hockey is available on Wii Virtual Console. Don't hold your breath for a PSN/XBL release

            NHL 94 or 95 would be amazing with updated rosters. I would love to see the real tecmo superbowl with the real rosters.

              Forget Baseball Simulator 1.000, Baseball Stars (NES version) would be amazing.

                  I haven't tried this, but it looks like someone has hacked and made an updated Baseball Stars:
