I've played neither and have been waiting for this for ages.

I need a PS3, NOW!

I am also excited. The only game that I like better than those two is Psychonauts. They are two of the most beautiful experiences you can have with a video game.

First day buy for me! I'm so freaking glad i bought a ps3 instead of an xbox :D

I don't have ICO but I've heard it's great. I do have Shadow of the Colossus Limited edition! (The one with 4 postcards and a different cover.)

Also, on an off-topic note, I have a sealed copy of Canis Canem Edit (Bully). It's not rare or anything, I always just wanted to say that.

When I heard this news I orgasmed so hard that I now have 3 children from 3 different women.

But then I remembered I don't have a PS3.

My friends just bought SoTC for $90. Sucks to be him.

This is definately on my "must buy" list.

Definitely on my "to buy" list when my girlfriend finally buys her PS3.

Im gonna buy a ps3 now with my birthday money!:fuzgrin:

I NEED A PS3!!!!!

Japanese release date in September! English-speaking release date still unannounced.

I watched the trailer in that last link. I like they way the only difference I can perceive between the PS2 and PS3 versions is that the latter run at a lot lower FPS.

I feel like I'm missing out on something by not playing these two classic games - I mean it's not like I haven't heard of them. And I call myself a gamer?

Perhaps I should buy this as a gift for my friend when it comes out.

ICO is a must play. People say SOTC is better. I will judge for myself!

What the fuck does this even mean?

It means you should motherfucking play ICO.

No true Scotsman wouldn't.

I've played a wide variety of games, yet somehow I missed out two popular PS2 classics that everyone has seemed to play except for me, despite having heard of them and even having access to both of them once. So I half-seriously questioned my status as being someone who appreciates computer games as one of my main hobbies.

Ico taught me that darkies are evil.

Fucking gamers.

Fucking trolls.

I think that they have an option for 3d tvs. That's probably why the PS3 version is running slower. Hopefully with the 3d option turned off it will speed up.

Somehow I missed this news, but they've been available on the PSN for a week or so now!

Yeah, I saw the HD pack in a local store the other day.

I want to buy this, but I have too many games on the go at the moment because of rl interfering with my spare time. Fuck priorities.

I heard about these HD remakes a while ago. Its been far too long since i played Ico. what a beautiful game it was.

I also need a PS3 now...

I never played SotC...so when I look at gameplay vids I don't have a clue what the fuss is about, is it just the nostalgia? I mean the scenery looks nice but can someone sum up for me why it's so sexy?

I've always known it as the game where killing the monsters makes you feel bad because they weren't really monsters, and the game where you have to climb up the monsters to stab them in the head.

I felt really bad when I had to kill those colossi. :(

It is a game with a gorgeous, eerily-abandoned and absolutely lonely landscape; lovingly-designed and fleshed-out monster battles; a talent for making the player feel remorse for being successful in their battles; and a brilliant orchestral soundtrack which nails every single moment in the game.

It’s probably one of the best examples of video games as an art form, and just watching some Youtube clips won’t do it justice.

Its just such a epic game. Climbing up and taking down a huge colossi is just epic on its own. Its also a peaceful game in parts. Its got such a nice atmosophere.
