Tomba 2! is Back on North American PSN, in Its English Glory

Whoa, Tomba! 2 is here. In English. For PSN. Tomba! 2: The Evil Swine Return has finally joined the PSOne Classic family on the PlayStation Network. If you're a fan of Tomba!, you've probably been hoping for an English version of Tomba! 2 to show up on PSN. Unfortunately, the North American version had an emulation issue that caused the game's quality to drop, failing Sony's standards of quality. However, Sony and MonkeyPaw Games were determined to bring fans what they wanted. According to John Greiner, President of MonkeyPaw Games:
 

"We never gave up hope of resolving the Tomba! 2 emulation issue. We're thrilled that our persistence has finally paid off, and we're going to celebrate with a special Twitter giveaway for Tomba fans only!"

Oh, neato! So with that said, between now and Christmas, fans are given the opportunity to retweet the Tomba! 2 announcement from MonkeyPaw Games' Twitter account (@MonkeyPawGames). Those that take part will be entered into a random drawing to win one of over 100 limited-edition plush Tomba figures, which are awarded at the rate of two per day, and guess what? These plushies aren't available anywhere else!

Directed by Tokuro Fujiwara, the man behind Ghost 'n Goblins, Resident Evil, and most of the core Mega Man games, Tomba! 2: The Evil Swine Return is a delightful cartoony mission-based action/adventure title that will surely please fans of the first game. Players who have purchased the original Tomba! 2 in Japanese will now be able to download the English version for free.
