The odds seem to be increasing - saw an article indicating a meeting would take place about it soon.

oh, nice find.  that article is even more informative than the one i posted. 

No probs.  I hope they decide to do this, and it would make sense they way they're positioning Last Guardian.

 



Try to be reasonable... its easier than you think...

Yesssss. I would buy it as a collectible. I wouldnt bother to play Shadow of the Colossus though because I accidentally saw a spoiler about the horse falling into the abyss. :/

One spoiler (and a small one) shouldn't deter you from playing one of the greatest games of all time.

Plus, there's a twist to that spoiler, and I won't tell you what it is.

Only if they fix the problems with SotC. I've never seen a game try so hard to be pretty, only to fail so hard. The level of detail and framerate issues with that game make my eyes bleed.

With the advent of the God of War Collection, which features two PS2 classics remastered in beautiful high-definition, other developers and publishers are starting to toy with this idea.

What other publishers are starting to toy with this idea? Don't get me wrong, I realize GOW did not invent the graphically improved remake, but what publisher has toyed with the idea since Sony's announcement?


IDK but I hope Konami toys with this idea. I'd love to see MGS2/3 and SH2-4 remastered on PS3.

yes. it will happen. i says its so. *disappears*

I didn't really care for SotC. But I would still pick it up.

@Onyxmeth

Capcom said they were thinking about it

I doubt it, ICO sold horribly. SOTC didnt really sell well despite being in the cheap bin forever. I just gave a test play to the copy of ICO I just bought last night and it looks pretty awful on my 52" and I have heard there are some framerate issues with SOTC so a HD remake would be welcomed by me.



Getting an XBOX One for me is like being in a bad relationship but staying together because we have kids. XBone we have 20000+ achievement points, 2+ years of XBL Gold and 20000+ MS points. I think its best we stay together if only for the MS points.

Nintendo Treehouse is what happens when a publisher is confident and proud of its games and doesn't need to show CGI lies for five minutes.

Ico sold 700k and SoTC about 1.7 million. Not that terrible.

I'm sure an HD remake would sell well, if it was advertised properly (Ico never got any advertising or any exposure at all, I first heard of it when I signed up on VGC)
