2011 hurts, but makes sense I guess. I'm sure they want to time it within a few months of the next game.

ICO Collection!!!!

and a few others (uncharted 3, Horizon) Sorry for the bump, didn't know where else to post.

delicious leaks

 

[-viper-]

they didn't update anything in terms of on-screen art. It is aliased and fat. Look at this. It is freaking huge for a UI element. Not to mention that should be a circle.

The prospect of seeing SOTC and ICO in that image quality is MOUTHWATERING.

 

[BobTheFork]

Bought again. I can't wait to play Colossus in HD!

 

[BeeDog]

YESSS!

Sony's E3 has already been awesome!



June 15th 4:47 PM, KZObsessed's and BeeDog's friendship ends.

:lol

 

[Net_Wrecker]

Forget Digital Foundry, look at this video:

Fifth Colossus in 1080p

HOLY WHAT THE WHAT

I know I'm late but WOW. It's like a different game with a solid framerate.

 

[Pai Pai Master]

Is it possible that Amazon put it up accidentally? Or is it impossible for a game to show up unless they've received some sort of internal confirmation that it's coming?

[Magnus]

SotC: Get rid of the floaty bullshit controls, fix the framerate, and I'm in!! Looks amazing. Will probably buy even if the controls stay the same way, haha.

Uncharted 3?!?! WTF

 

[Clipjoint]

Holy fuck what???? OMG.

 

[JaseC]

SotC: Get rid of the floaty bullshit controls, fix the framerate, and I'm in!! Looks amazing. Will probably buy even if the controls stay the same way, haha.

Uncharted 3?!?! WTF

I'll bust a fucking nut if we get anything Uncharted 3 related. It's far too damn early.

 

[Y2Kev]

What the frig, Sony? Where is this?

 

[angelfly]

SotC: Get rid of the floaty bullshit controls, fix the framerate, and I'm in!! Looks amazing. Will probably buy even if the controls stay the same way, haha.

I'd settle for fixed framerate at 1080p

 

[Vhalyar]

What the frig, Sony? Where is this?

Most likely kept aside (along with TLG) for the Tokyo Game Show.

“As soon as we released the God of War HD collection, people started giving us suggestions, and Ico and Shadow of the Colossus was on the top of the list,” Yoshida told JoyStiq during an interview at E3.

“We are very aware and we want to see and play it in HD in a better frame-rate, as well.


“That’s something we are very keen to look in to.”



just announce it already!

gamescom or pair it with TLG reveal at TGS?

sounds like frame rate is something they'd fix

 

[Lard]

I'm glad everyone is so excited about Sony removing BC from PS3 so we can pay for games all over again.

So cool that they actually care what people think.

They're going to make a fair amount of cash of course, it's not like they won't benefit from it, but it really feels like this is something fans have actually had an influence on.

 

[Sir Ilpalazzo]

I'm glad everyone is so excited about Sony removing BC from PS3 so we can pay for games all over again.

I've never even seen Ico in a store (at least, not since I was interested in playing it), so that justifies this for me.

 

[alr1ght]

I'm glad everyone is so excited about Sony removing BC from PS3 so we can pay for games all over again.

My PS3 plays PS2 games and I will still buy this.

 

[Wario64]

I'm glad everyone is so excited about Sony removing BC from PS3 so we can pay for games all over again.

Even if they included BC, I bet these re-releases would still be popular just for the improvements alone.

 

[Synless]

My PS3 plays PS2 games and I will still buy this.

Same, and I would still gladly rebuy all my PS2 games (specifically all the RPG's, MGS, and Onimusha) if they ran at a higher framerate and resolution.

 

[Tashi]

Nice, I've never played Ico.

 

[SolidSnakex]

Even if they included BC, I bet these re-releases would still be popular just for the improvements alone.

Exactly. Here's Sly on the PS2

And here's Sly from the HD Collection

That's a huge difference.

 

[StuBurns]

Nice, I've never played Ico.

It's the best video game ever made. Please look forward to it.

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

My copy of Ico is already on ebay. Can't wait for this to come out!!

EDIT: ^^^^ (Sly pic) DAMN THAT IS A HUGE DIFFERENCE!!

 

[RTS83]

An HD remake would be my first experience with both games.

Be jealous of the amazement that awaits me.

 

[r1chard]

I've got Ico on the shelf and I've been avoiding booting it up waiting for the HD re-release. Soon, sooon.....

 

[MercuryLS]

I own both, but I will double dip for this collection. Both ICO and SOTC are some of the finest games ever made and deserve to be experienced by everyone. I can't wait to see them in HD at 60fps.

 

[nincompoop]

Exactly. Here's Sly on the PS2

http://i47.tinypic.com/2lbysuq.jpg

And here's Sly from the HD Collection

http://i46.tinypic.com/2rmuqyt.jpg

That's a huge difference.

These comparison pics are stupid and disingenuous. The PS2 version looks a million times better than that if you play it on a medium sized 480p flatscreen CRT like it was intended.

 

[Neuromancer]

I'm really interested in seeing how Ico will look. (And how smoothly SotC will run.)

Also does anyone know if the light saber will be the HD rerelease? I always felt kind of robbed with the NA version.

 

[Sir Ilpalazzo]

I would imagine that they would go with the European or Japanese versions for this collection, since they were the "more finished" versions.

 

[StuBurns]

The light saber really isn't that big of a deal, nor is the melon cutscene. The English translation of Yorda and the other woman is a bigger thing I would think.

 

[Lard]

Exactly. Here's Sly on the PS2

And here's Sly from the HD Collection

That's a huge difference.

Why is it huge? Because he's looking at the camera in the HD shot?

I'm tired of graphic whorism ruining gaming.

 

[~Kinggi~]

GIVE it to MEEEEEE, stick it in my FUCKING VEINSSSSSSS

 

[Mush]

Shadow of the Colossus is the best video game ever made. Please look forward to it.

Fixed.

 

[Lard]

It's the best video game with the worst camera ever made. Please look forward to it.

Really fixed.

 

["God's Beard!"]

I hope that they add bump maps for the environments and update the character models and HUDs for the two games

That would be awesome.

 

[StuBurns]

Really fixed.

The camera is perfectly fine, and they almost certainly would not change it for a HD release.

That won't take long with ICO.

 

[Lard]

Seriously, I'm not trying to troll.

It has one of the worst, most frustrating cameras I've ever seen in a game.

Screw the framerate and fix the camera if you're going to re-release it.

I totally disagree. Now, SotC, that has serious camera issues.

That's the game I'm talking about!!!!!!!!!!!

/confused

 

[alr1ght]

it is huge because it is huge. You don't have to buy it. It's not like the guys porting these would be making anything of use.

 

["God's Beard!"]

That won't take long with ICO.

That's why I'm hoping for it. Bump maps on existing textures would be pretty easy, too. Fuck it, just desaturate them and they're good to go :lol

 

[StuBurns]

/confused

Oh sorry, you quoted my comment about ICO though.

That was a joke, ICO has no HUD.

 

[Lard]

That was a joke, ICO has no HUD.

I thought you were talking about SOTC as well.

Oops.

Yes, I'm complaining about SOTC's camera issues - as in the camera is terrible.

To the point of "hindering the ability to play" terrible.

I would rather see them fix the camera than the frame rate.

I'd consider buying it then.

I agree the camera wasn't very good. However, I doubt they will fix it, that would take actual game design work, as appose to increasing resolution and framerate. I doubt Team ICO would be handling this, and I wouldn't want anyone but them making gameplay changes.

 

[krae_man]

Remakes in HD with Trophies is like one of the best Ideas Sony has come up with. Bet you Microsoft wishes it had released Halo 1+2 with achievements for $40 before Halo 3 released.

 

[Lard]

Taking out BC and rereleasing games so people have to pay to play them again is like one of the best Ideas Sony has come up with.

Fixed.

 

["God's Beard!"]

That was a joke, ICO has no HUD.

Like I said, that's an easy fix.

 

[StuBurns]

That is some scary shit.
