Amazon France Lists ICO, Shadow Of The Colossus HD
Shadow of the ColossusThis seems a little fast but perhaps the projects are further along then we could've possibly imagined...
Either way, the information is bound to get people talking. According to a European source, the French arm of Amazon has listed three upcoming PlayStation 3 exclusives. Two won't come as any surprise: everyone knows Naughty Dog is working on a third Uncharted, and we heard about Quantic Dream's new game, Horizon, last month. But to have each of them hit Amazon this soon...? It just seems silly. The third title on the list is going to make some PS2 and Team ICO fans very, very happy (provided the details are accurate). It's a high-definition collection of ICO and Shadow of the Colossus, two of the most revered and artistically accomplished games from the PS2 era, which continue to be highly sought-after products. The remembrance of these two gems also fills everyone with a ton of expectation concerning Team ICO's The Last Guardian, which we're hoping will make an appearance during Sony's E3 press conference later today. But if HD remakes of the two aforementioned games are indeed coming, you can bet that it's big news.
We've actually heard this as a rumor before, but to have it be listed on a retailer's website is something new. Cross your fingers!

Anyone remembers how long the time span between GOW collection and GOW3 (release) was? I'm not sure, was something like 4-5 months, right?
I'm so hyped for Sony's conference now, c'mon give us a release date for Last Guardian, pretty please =)
First Nintendo's conference, then Sony's - guess they're keeping the best for last XD

although i know this is all a part of sony's master plan. backwards compatibility isn't something they can profit from
but with HD remakes for the system, they can
not complaining though, i have back compat w/ my 60GB...and i own shadow of the colossus - but i'll prob buy this anyway...
sony wins again

Hope team ICO took the same approach as Santa monica Studios and handed their code to BluePoint Games, they did an awesome job on GOW Collection.
in just a few minutes Nintendo's conference starts and then Sony's =)

I already have SOTC, but not Ico,(which LV was nice enough to lend out to me), but I still want to get my own copy, plus this dual-game collection disc.
BTW, I usually see from 1 to 3 copies of SOTC at my local GameStops for around $15 to $19, but after watching for a used ICO at GS for the last year, I finally saw one, but some grabbed it up. And GS wanted $40 dollars for it USED.

and The Last Guardian is the single one game I care the most in the upcoming titles.
These three games are the best examples of sheer artistic talent and vision of beauty.

i wish sony would remaster all their ps2 games, i was really shocked when they announced sly cooper collection!
i hope they do a ratchet and clank collection.
that is by far the most desired collection i want.
if i could only play 1 collection for the rest of my life it would be R&C.

Lucky to have a copy of Ico, but if this HD upgrade is true I might have to get them both again
Uncharted 3!!! Oh god, I wonder where they'll take the adventure next
I hope Elena is back, she's SO awesome!
