|
 |
ICO & Shadow of the Colossus Collection
- Platform: PlayStation 3
- Developer: Team ICO
- Publisher: Sony Japan
- Aspect ratio(s): ?
- Release date: Spring 2011
- Genre: Magical
- Mode(s): Single-player
Description
Quote: | Two of the finest games ever made remastered in HD with 3D support.
From Eurogamer; The aspect ratio for ICO will be reframed for widescreen. Don't expect any extra content, though. "There are elements I looked back on and wished I could do this or that, but now I look back and think maybe this is a complete product," said Ueda. However, there's an awful lot of texture upres and the like going on. "There are areas where we are brushing up the content, so that, you can look forward to." |

Um... same as GOW collection then? The bump in res, the addition of AA and a higher frame rate is enough for me. I did read somewhere that they're looking to touch up some of the textures too. |
yeah it's exactly the way it's supposed to be. it's for fans and people who are interested after hearing lots of good things about the games but don't own a ps2.
plus it's probably gonna be a budget price like GoW Collection and you get 2 awesome games so it's cool.

Can't wait for this. I tried to play SOTC recently on my PS2 and just couldn't make a bloody thing out. It looks like complete ass on my 42" LCD. Super blurry and all washed out.
On the other hand, the Dora the explorer games all look fine on my PS2.

Spoiler: | |
Frame rates are going to be locked at 30fps, it's going to have 3D support, trophies, and they say they've been doing texture work as well... so some things have changed in fact, but the real kicker is why would you want to change anything more than that in the first place? It's also worth remembering it's going to be available at a budget price, which sort of puts things further into perspective. | well PS2 640x480 vs PS3 720p ... on the psx2 emu Ico looks the same like the new ps3 screen shots |
ico/sotc is 4:3 aspect ratio on ps2 and as such it's also 4:3 in an emulator.
the new ps3 port will have an extended 16:9 aspect ratio, so that's an improvement you cannot get atm.

Actually I will quote you on that because you're absolutely right.

Good. God.
If it didn't require 3.60/3.70, I'd buy that in a heartbeat. As it stands though; I'm not taking the risk. Well done Sony, you just cost yourselves a sale  |
That is what you get for modding your system. You win some, you lose some 
1 and 2 are still amazing.

Shadow of the Colossus was an awesome ps2 title, but i am a little disappointed with the HD improvements in that video. i don't think i will be giving up my jb ps3 yet.
