Shadow of the Colossus is one of my favorite games of all time.

RareMonkeyon Aug. 25, 2011 at 9:02 a.m.
they had to re-do assets in this right? since the Ico didn't even support 480p.

Can not wait for this to come out!!!!!!

SotC at a stable frame-rate just sounds divine.

Also, grip meter Brad.

Swoxxon Aug. 25, 2011 at 9:04 a.m.

Yeees! Been looking forward for this

This looks amazing. So glad I pre-ordered this collection. Is it weird my most anticipated game this year is this, a couple of games that came out years ago on PS2?

AllanIcemanon Aug. 25, 2011 at 9:08 a.m.

I might get this. Just to play them again.

Edit: LoL, at Brad not remembering the pink circle is your grip strength for SoC.

smitty86on Aug. 25, 2011 at 9:14 a.m.

Everyone needs to buy this game. No excuses.

ProfessorEsson Aug. 25, 2011 at 9:15 a.m.
Man I can't wait to get this. More for Shadows but they're both good. 
I was one of those people that didn't beat SotC because it's technical issues combined with a dying PS2 were too much of a pain in the ass.
CaLeon Aug. 25, 2011 at 9:16 a.m.

I'm going to download this one and watch it later in the nude, thanks.

DrMadHattenon Aug. 25, 2011 at 9:16 a.m.
I bought a PS2 just to have Shadows. Will I do it again? UGH!
damswedonon Aug. 25, 2011 at 9:17 a.m.

@AngelN7: But now we can play it with a frame rate that isn't as unstable as my one legged aunt drunk on a ship at sea during a Category 5 hurricane.

My biggest gaming regret was trading my launch copy of Ico for WWF Smackdown: Just bring it.
