Update 3 (Themes):

http://blog.us.playstation.com/2011/...us-collection/

We’re just a few short months away from the release of the ICO & Shadow of the Colossus Collection for PlayStation 3. As mentioned in the original announcement, this new collection features two of the most highly acclaimed video games of all time, now with full 1080p HD and stereoscopic 3D support, 7.1 surround sound, and full PSN Trophy support, all for just $39.99.

As if that wasn’t enough reason to pick up this collection in September, I’m happy to announce that the disc will also come with some amazing bonus content. Packed in every new copy of the game will be a voucher for two XMB Dynamic Themes, one for ICO and one for Shadow of the Colossus. In addition, on the disc itself will be a ton of exclusive video content from ICO, Shadow of the Colossus, and The Last Guardian that fans won’t want to miss. We’re busy finalizing the videos as we speak, and will have more details to share next month.

Don’t forget to pre-order your copy before it hits stores on September 27!

Note: The games were always individual in Japan. Some screens and gameplay vids in the previous thread

 

[hateradio]

The box looks pretty. I wish they were to use a different image for ICO, since they used it for the PS2 in certain regions.

 

[Synless]

I thought they were sold together?

 

[Persona7]

NA version will be one disk with some slapdash box art.

 

[BeeDog]

Uh, is the Western release also going to be split into two separate releases like this?

 

[Net_Wrecker]

Dude.

Duuuuuuuude.

Dat CE.

Watch the US get a CG render of a Colossus jumping out of the box or something. Sigh.

 

[xxracerxx]

Awesome CE.

 

[Loudninja]

Uh, is the Western release also going to be split into two separate releases like this?

No.

 

[Wario64]

So it's coming out this year? I thought it was coming out next year

 

[Dwayne]

Product recognition, pretty important for titles like this.

 

[Dartastic]

...they're not bundled anymore?

 

[Trevelyon]

I thought this slipped into TBA? Good to see it's still '11

 

[onken]

Still kind of annoyed they're screwing us into buying them separately here, but damn so pretty, they will be mine!

 

[REMEMBER CITADEL]

Interesting, I thought both games would be on a single disc. Also, trophies in Team ICO games? I don't know, it somehow sounds wrong. Can trophy notifications on PS3 be turned off?

 

[giancarlo123x]

...they're not bundled anymore?

In Japan they were always announced separate.

 

[NateDrake]

Better hear an announcement next week. Sept/Oct release will do nicely.

 

[Risette]

What are the chances of this having English text/subtitles? Would rather have this over whatever junky looking dual cover we'd get here.

 

[theBishop]

That is wonderful. I'm glad we're getting the combo pack in the US, but the coverart is pathetic by comparison.

 

[Loudninja]

In Japan it was always separate nothing new.

 

[zerodayPopbot]

Wow the collectors edition has my heart. My two favourite games in one sublime package.

 

[Cels]

If we are getting it in one box, I would really love for them to to do reversible covers. So they can have that godawful "ICO AND SOTC COLLECTION" cover with the two game covers, and then the reversible one can have the classy ico/sotc art on it.

 

[Trevelyon]

I don't know, it somehow sounds wrong. Can trophy notifications on PS3 be turned off?

Yes, they can.

 

[linko9]

Japan gets all the box arts! We're still stuck with that two-logos on a box thing, right? Well, at least we pay less... but I'd gladly pay for that collector's edition.

 

[SolidSnakex]

Surprise TLG release date at E3?

 

[Cerberus]

North America got both of Team Ico's games before Japan right? Good to hear that September release date. Hopefully, The Last Guardian won't be more than 6 months away from the release of this collection.

 

[boingball]

want
good to hear that it is 2011

 

[jump_button]

XD *waits to laugh at the US box for ICO to be the same as you got last time*

 

[Trevelyon]

Did SCEJ crack the whip on Ueda? No more mister nice Sony.

 

[Jonnyram]

So bought.

 

[supermackem]

All over my face, day one.

 

[MrDenny]

I'm excited, never played either.
Both games epic experiences?

 

[onken]

What are the chances of this having English text/subtitles? Would rather have this over whatever junky looking dual cover we'd get here.

The originals didn't, so I wouldn't hold your breath.

 

[SolidSnakex]

Did SCEJ crack the whip on Ueda? No more mister nice Sony.

He isn't working on these. They were made by Blue Point.

 

[Sidewinder]

The CE looks like a bargain, costs less than buying both games separately without the goodies.

 

[Wario64]

I'm excited, never played either.
Both games epic experiences?

Hell yes.

 

[demosthenes]

Better hear an announcement next week. Sept/Oct release will do nicely.

Really hope they'll be out this fall as I don't see Trico coming until Spring 2012. Really hope I'm surprised @ E3.

 

[owlbeak]

Don't care what the ICO cover looks like as long as it doesn't look like the original US release and/or doesn't say "SOLVE THE PUZZLES OR JOIN THE TORMENTED SOULS FOREVER" on the back. :\

 

[Mœbius]

What are the chances of this having English text/subtitles? Would rather have this over whatever junky looking dual cover we'd get here.

It's not really a game where text / subtitles are necessary considering the text shown and words spoken are of a made-up language.

 

[Wandering Leopard]

Collectors edition will be mine again but they really should have a dynamic theme of Ico and Yorda during the save game scenes, they were very memorable.

 

[ItAintEasyBeinCheesy]

Individual, thought it would be a "collection".

 

[Psi]

I've never played either of those so I hope they come out soon in the US.

 

[Nakazato]

bought when ever they come out in US

 

[TekkenMaster]

Happy these are coming sooner rather than later...I never played the originals so this is a must buy.

 

[Danielsan]

Please give it to me now.

 

[SolarPowered]

This bodes well for a timely US release.

AWESOME

I'm excited, never played either.
Both games epic experiences?

Sublime is the only word that comes to mind.

 

[CosmicGroinPull]

Now I want separate boxes for the English release too...

 

[Patapwn]

Alright, so here's the deal...

I need this. But I don't know how to get it. I am a spoiled American and would appreciate if someone could tell me how about obtaining one of these. Play-asia or something? Please help!

 

[Wario64]

Individual, thought it would be a "collection".

It is. For America at least.

[Autofokus]

Can trophy notifications on PS3 be turned off?

No.

They are masterpieces. Not something I generally say when video games are concerned.
