    So everyone knows about God of War 1 & 2 coming to Ps3.... Got me wondering.
     
    What other PS2 greats would you want on Blu-Ray?
     
    I want the the Jak & Daxter Trilogy !

    Good idea. A Metal Gear Solid 3 for the PS3 would cause me to JIZZ IN MY PANTS. Sorry, had to do it. Another series that would be awesome would be the Sly Cooper series because those would look phenomenal in updated, 720/1080p graphics.

    As long as they don't charge out the ass, this is a nice idea. I don't really care for the potentially updated visuals, but some of those old PS2 games have become hard to come by and a rerelease would open up a new audience to some of the many PS2 hits. I'd love to see Tekken Tag Tournament and Odin Sphere get the bump.

    FFX & X-2 with somewhat updated visuals like the GoW package would be swell.

    The metal gear games are a no brainer. I wouldn't mind Devil May Cry 1 and 3 (Because 2 can fuck itself) either.

    The obvious ones are the Metal Gear Solid series [the first could be lumped in as well] and the Devil May Cry series.
    Kingdom Hearts 1 + 2 would be pretty cool to see as well.

    I think this would be an OK solution to the lack of backwards compatibility but it's still not great.

    Honestly, I'm very opposed to this idea.  Make new games and stop re-releasing old ones.  Especially games that are still easy to find and look relatively good for their respective platforms.  Just one man's opinion, though.

    I'm conflicted.
     
    On one point, I would love to have the chance to replay some of these old games, in true HD, and with trophy support. 
     
    On the other hand, I own both God of War 1 and 2. I also have a 60 gig, backward compatibility is not an issue with me. Unless there is something worthwhile for someone like me, and for those who still have PS2's and own both, to re-purchase it, the likelihood of me not even bothering to check it out is pretty high.  
     
    On the other hand...
     
    / Off-the-cuff rant
    I know it's beating a dead horse, but it needs to be said. Isn't this odd that Sony is taking the time to port these games over, and even suggesting that this will be a commonality among their past library, instead of simply figuring a solution to PS2 backward compatibility
     
    This is strange coming from the company, that time and again has reiterated the excuse that the "PS3 library strong enough", to not bother with even looking into a future BC option. I'm finding this recent news pretty hypocritical of them, trying to take great strides to bring older installments of their flagship franchise on the PS3. I thought we weren't even doing thinking of that. 
     
    You know what PS2 greats would be great on PS3? All of them.
    Even the terrible ones, the PS2 is still one of the most diverse and exclusive gaming libraries in all of console history. Imagine that as a selling point for your console. That would be awesome. 
     /End rant.
     
    I hope that this is more than just a marketing ploy to increase interest in GOW3 (It is.). I hope some older titles get some true HD treatment, and more importantly, new content. 
     
    This could be a great opportunity to drum up support for franchises that didn't get the attention (sales) the first time around. (See: NOT GOW.) I think that's why a lot of people are suggesting stuff from Team Ico.
     
    And why I will suggest Yakuza.

    I'm just glad people are being at least rational about these re-releases, unlike Nintendo's Play on Wii GameCube stuff which were SO EVIL!!!!!1

    I wanted to say Virtua Fighter 4 Evo but there's no reason to with Virtua Fighter 5. I guess the Metal Gear games.

    @vidiot: Marketing ploy or not, I really don't care. Since I don't have a backwards compatible PS3, and I've never owned a PS2, this is a perfect chance for me to play some of the greatest games of all time.

    I have a 60gb ps3 and the backwards compatibility is the best feature of the ps3. I would love to see lots of games get this make over so that people who didn't play ps2 games can get some love. On the other hand, all ps3's need to be backwards compatible. Where is the ps2 emulation in the slim Sony?

    Wow I actually did not know that was coming out and I was even debating on picking up a $50 PS2 to replay those two games. 
     
    But yeah I'd love to see all the old MGS games on a single Blu-Ray. A PS2 Final Fantasy collection would be cool as well. But none of this would be necessary had Sony not ripped us off and removed backwards compatibility completely.

    Maybe the sharper graphics or trophies aren't your thing, but I think the most important part of the GoW Collection announcement was that it runs at 60 fps. I don't know about you, but to me a smooth frame rate can make a game much more enjoyable and the GoW games weren't afraid to drop frames. I have a backward compatible PS3, but the upgrades they're making at that price seem worth it to me. And I imagine some re-releases could even have additional features.

    I'd like to play the Sly Cooper games remastered. I never played them, but I loved inFamous so much, so they must be great! I could just get them on the regular PS2 discs since I have backward compatibility in my PS3, but I'd like to see them remaster it and add trophies. That would be nice.

    killer instinct. :).
     
    I know its on Nintendo but even so...
     
    GTA would sell tonnes and would be great fun to play.
     
    I wish they would do Tekken Tag Tournament-that game kicked ass.
     
    You aren't a true Giantbomber if you dont say Shin Megami Tensei.

    Sony is fucking over customers - taking away BC and then re-releasing games. Bullshit. 
     
    I would have rather have NEW games for my PS3 then re-buy games I already own.
     
    Anyone who willingly re-buys these is an idiot.

    The only franchises I personally would buy if they did this would be:  

    • Metal Gear Solid
    • Ratchet and Clank
    • Devil May Cry
    • Kingdom Hearts
    • Silent Hill
    Could be good. But I'll settle for just God of War right now.
