Warcraft 2 on psp?

[BelmontSlayer]

Dude, I never said there was a Warcraft 64. If you read the entire post, I was saying that Starcraft was much better than Warcraft 2, but Warcraft 2 could be ported, unlike Starcraft.

Ah, so sorry...It was 4AM when I posted that. I needed sleep.

'Tis all good, my good sir.

warcraft 2 was awesome, I never bothered with Starcraft but warcraft 2 is the only game I've brought 4 times over the years, when the psx emu's start rolling out we'll be able to play it, but the psx version sucked ass compared to the original so I too am joining the 'port warcraft 2' bandwagon.

So. . .anyone gonna even give it a shot?

Someone needs to put a prize up for doing this. . .

I'll donate $20 to a paypal account if some one makes a successfull, complete, fullspeed port. If someone tries and only releases a couple of lame beta's without actually finishing the project, then I probably wouldn't donate. But if it was really good, i might throw in a little more $$$

[Broadus]

Me, too! I'd donate cash to see something like this come to life.

Indeed, mcvader, the PS1 emulator will let us play the PS1 version of Warcraft 2, but it would be just like an N64 emulator letting us play Starcraft, in that it would really suck compared to the computer game. But you already know the PS1 version sucks.
One reason the PS1 version of WC2 would suck would be because you can't make any maps for it, which would ruin a lot of the fun in having a PSP port of the computer game.

Is there some kind of overly complicated "how to homebrew" guide? I mean, nobody wanting to take up this project makes me want to do it, though I'd do a crappy job.

[mickmos]

Some one should really give this ago it would be the best game on psp at the moment i think.
