God of War Collection

[ChelseaGrin26]

If you just bought them for PS2 why waste your money? Besides the trophies I don't see much else that this will give to someone who doesn't already own the games.

I'd prefer to play them on my PS3 and minimize my PS2 collection so I can ultimately get rid of my PS2 altogether. I don't have a backwards-compatible PS3, unfortunately.

 

[ChelseaGrin26]

Ah ok. I still play my PS2 pretty frequently so thats why I was curious.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

It's cool. If they released Ico and Shadow of the Colossus on the PS3, I'd probably get rid of my PS2. Those and the God of War games are the only ones I'm really into that are only on the PS2.

 

[Anubis]

I have backwards compatibility on mine.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Well, f*** you too.

 

[ChelseaGrin26]

I'm gonna be getting a Slim so I gotta hang on to my PS2.

 

[hippie_hunter]

I remember hearing rumors that Sony is trying to work out backwards compatability on newer PS3s.

But yeah, my video game placement just has the PS3 and Wii on account that I was smart and bought the MGS4 bundle the minute it came out

Not everyone still owns them (or has finished both of them) and it will be good to replay through the series before GoW 3 drops.

Yes! Ico and SotC are cult gems, not too many people have played them, which is a shame. SotC has an amazing world, and the new game looks stunning.
Never got to play GoW1, but bashed GoW into a pulp, been excited for III since that cliffhanger ending.

1 thing if this thing sells well (which I suspect it will) thus waiting on Sony to bring back PS3 BC can stop waiting bc theres a market for rereleasing old games on the system. Boost up the resolution, add trophies, bundle the games together on 1 BR disc and you got a seller. I wonder why they didnt think of this before. I can definetly see a ICO/SotC rerelease once the Last Guardian game is released

Just a heads up to those in the UK looking to import it.

MovieTyme have it on pre-order for £25.99 at the moment.

Cheers for that mate, I shall be promptly ordering it.

 

[Dark Victory]

I have a 60 gig(backwards compatible), but I'll still get this since I'm such a huge fan. Not to mention I traded in the first two a long time ago.

 

[CrypticOne]

This is awesome news!!!!

It looks gorgeous. 1st day buy for me.

 

[BatMatt]

[Superhero 101]

Is it me or does it look the same? I will only buy this because of the Demo.

well GoW 1 and 2 looked pretty good to begin with. They didnt have much to clean up.

 

[ProjectPat2280]

I think im gonna get this. I dont own either game and with them polishing the game up a bit, maybe it wont feel like im playing a PS2 game. Im a graphics ****e so it can be tough for me to go back and play older games.
