Posted by MasJ @ Fri, 25 Jun 2010 | Message Boards

I've just added 5 new Sony Playstation Hacks to our PSX ISOs Section. Here's what's been added:

Colin McRae Rally 2.1 (Europe) (En,Fr,De,Es,It) [Hack by Lupus Erectus v20071124] (Track 1)
Colin McRae Rally 2.1 (USA) (En,Fr,Es) [Hack by Lupus Erectus v20071124] (Track 1)

Xenogears 2.0 (USA) (Disc 1) [Hack by Alcahest v20070413]
Xenogears 2.0 (USA) (Disc 2) [Hack by Alcahest v20070413]

If you're into playing modified games, these are definitely worth looking at. The Xenogears 2.0 hack is definitely quite interesting:

Here's what the author says about the hack:
So what exactly is altered by this patch?

* Controls are put back to the original Japanese controls.
* In-game battle combos are back to the original Japanese ones (matching Japanese controls).
* Audio in the Full Motion Videos is in Japanese with English subtitles.
* Voices in the game are back to the original Japanese ones (in battles + certain cutscenes).
* The weight unit in character's stats is back to kilos (.kgs instead of .lbs).
* Emeralda's icon eyebrow transparency is corrected.
* The selection arrow in shop menus doesn't overlap choices (Buy, Sell, Exit) anymore.

Note: there are no changes whatsoever to the script.


There you go! You can find these new additions and over 3300 other Sony Playstation ISOs at our PSX ROMs Section.
