Forums - Sales Discussion - God Of War HD Collection Becomes First Remastered Title To Reach Sales Milestone

The Silent Chief

This gen there have been numerous remastered ports of classic titles re-released on the PS3 and 360 but only one has moved a million copies.

That achievement belongs to the God of War HD Collection.Sony has confirmed that the HD remastered port of the first two God of War titles initially released on the PS2 has sold a million copies since its 2009/2010 debut.

Ported to the PS3 by Bluepoint Games the God of War HD Collection featured high-definition resolutions (720p), anti-aliased graphics locked in at 60 frames per second, trophies and more. Early copies of the collection also included a playable demo of God of War III.

Released ahead of the launch of the third game the HD Collection was viewed as a means of introducing new players to the series. The HD Collection was later made available for download via PSN.

Does this not count as a remastered game? Halo Anniversary has sold nearly 2 million

I guess not, for some reason.

I htink its a remake, not a remasterization...



What a nonesense article with nonesense sources.

Unless I'm missing something, Halo Anniversary was not so much a HD port but rather a remake. These HD collections are essentially what my PS2 games look like when I run them through my PS2 emulator on the PC, but now with trophies.

I believe the writer unfortunately dug themselves a ditch upon which they fell into by using the word 'remastered'.

Typical...



Also just realized Vgchartz has GoW collection at 2.4million. This site's numbers combined with all these conflicting articles in relations to videogame sales numb the brain sometimes.



great news.



What do we have it at?
