Shadow of the Colossus hackery (spoilers possible)

[Joe]

I am usually against remakes of any kind, just to spruce up the graphics and shiz.

SOTC and ICO on the other hand deserve them in full form.

 

[Tennyo]

Wouldn't be remakes, just a re-release.

Is it still available, then? .

I don't know...

Actually, SotC only barely runs on the PS2's hardware, so an as-is re-release on PS3 or something would be the 'as it's meant to be played'-release, imho. Of course, they could then re-add the things they left out to make it run better. Stuff like, you know, things that make the countryside more interesting. A tree here and there, maybe some random monsters, I dunno.

 

[Joe]

Nah no random monster. Just keep Lizards and Fruit tbh.

A few extra collossi would be good and yeah maybe a bigger world, even though the original was prett bg for a ps2 game.

 

[Tetsujin]

Yeah, the framerate was really inconsistent in SotC...

A PS3 port would fix that, AND prettify the graphics. Sounds awesome.
Also, haven't played ICO yet.

I really hope they'll do this...

Ico doesn't cost much. I paid $7 for my copy. yarly

Yeah, ICO's generally not that rare; I think there was even a re-print of it in some regions before SotC was released. Though it could start to cost more due to increased interest in it because of The Last Guardian.

Blu-ray re-releases would be excellent.

Yeah, no monsters to fight, but I wouldn't mind more harmless animals walking around.

Orite, we don't need a remake, just better PS2 emulators, .
