Sony Goes the Extra Mile for Siren on PS Plus Premium | Push Square

pushsquare.com:

Someone at Sony must have a real soft spot for the PS2 horror classic Siren (or Forbidden Siren in Europe) as the title has been subject to a real labour of love as it drops on PS Plus Premium today. As well as being the very first example of Sony going back to a game it already emulated once before (in the criticised PS2 to PS4 program), it's also given the Trophy list an overhaul with a list almost double that of the PS4 port.

The first PS4 version of the game had a Trophy list comprising just 12 trinkets, and it didn't even bother with a Platinum. Some of the requirements were as simple as playing a Time Attack mode and unlocking the stage selection screen.

Fast forward eight years and Siren has now been given the Trophy list it deserves — Platinum included! Detailed in full on Exophase, you'll be rewarded across 23 Trophies for completing all objectives across specific days, discovering items, and getting a high score in the Brain Cell Revival minigame.

On top of the new Trophy list, you'll also have access to the features the PS5, PS4 emulation system brings to these classics: gameplay rewind, save states, control customisation, and more. This is probably the best-ever version of Siren; it's good to see Sony paying proper respect to some of the memorable titles that make up its big back catalogue.

Liam grew up with a PlayStation controller in his hands and a love for Metal Gear Solid. Nowadays, he's found playing the latest and greatest PS5 games as well as supporting Derby County. That last detail is his downfall.

It’s a really great game, too! I hope more of the ill-fated PS2 on PS4 titles get updated.

Would be awesome if they upgraded all the original PS2 games to the new emulator.

@DennisReynolds Can't see that happening just wish they would port games like the Godfather,Scarface etc but because of license issues keep dreaming.

Any knowledge on if we have access to it if we already
