But everyone's collective jaws hit the floor when they found out the game was going to be a PlayStation Portable exclusive. Why would Sega choose to go this route for a sequel to one of the most beautiful PlayStation 3 games available?
The Mario Bros. series has remained incredibly popular through the years. But one thing that has been missing from most Mario Bros. games is co-op. The latest game in the series, New Super Mario Bros. Wii, goes back to Mario's roots in co-op, allowing four players to join together to beat Bowser.

It appears the long wait is nearly over. Epic RPG White Knight Chronicles is headed overseas to a Playstation 3 near you. Fans of giant knights in pointy armor have only to wait until the game's release on February 2, 2010.
