![]() Nothing looked or felt like Shadow of the Colossus at the time. The remake looks much better than the original, but the remake also looks like any other high quality game out today. The original game was ambitious-a game bigger than the console it debuted on. In a way, this made the original more of an achievement because became a classic despite its flaws. This is primarily due to an uneven frame rate,” Brad Shoemaker wrote in a 2005 Gamespot review, where he gave the game a 8.7. “It's a disappointment that the technical execution is less than perfect. The original game earned a metacritic score of 91 despite two obvious flaws: weird controls and bad frame rates. And why would I do that when I can just download this modern, "better" version of the game on my PS4? I'd have to track down a working PS2, a hard copy of the game, and plug the old console into my TV with composite cables, which some new TVs don't even have. It would be a pain in the ass for me to go back and play the original, untouched Shadow of the Colossus now. After more than 60 years, The Night of the Hunter is still a powerful movie and watching it as easy as pulling up Amazon. No one- except Gus Van Sant-is making shot-for-shot remakes of classic films. They’re often remade, but historians and film buffs go to pains to preserve the originals. Sony's US and European PlayStation blogs confirmed the game's final release date as September 27th and 30th, respectively.It’s a kind of “remaster” that is wholly unique to the medium of video games. In Japan, the games are released separately on disc, while also being made available in a "Limited Box" which also includes an art booklet and a code for downloadable content. A Japanese trailer was released in the run up to E3 2011 stating a Japanese release date of September 22nd 2011. The collection was initially due to be out in Spring of 2011, but in April, Team Ico announced that the HD collection along with their current game, The Last Guardian, would be delayed. The game's framerate is also slowed down upon defeating a Colossus for several seconds as the player strikes the killing blow rather than immediately transitioning to the death animation as it did on the PS2 release. The gameplay changes are that the stamina system depletes slightly faster than on the PS2 and so climbing is more difficult and the player is move easily knocked off their balance or tossed around whilst on top of a Colossus. Shadow of the Colossus meanwhile has a slightly different ending as well as some small tweaks to the gameplay. It also includes the ability for players upon completing the game to allow them to restart and see the English translation of Yorda's speech and make use of the two-player mode that was not included in the original American release of the game on the PS2. Alongside the different artwork, the Ico remastering contains altered puzzles from the original release. The HD versions are based on the European release which means that the games contain additional features not present in the original North American version on the PS2. Also, the box contains a PlayStation Network voucher for a dynamic XMB-theme and video content from Ico, Shadow of the Colossus, and the upcoming The Last Guardian (the video features are on the disc in the US version). Both games are on one Blu-ray Disc, and feature full 1080p HD remastering (including a smoother frame rate), 3DTV support, and Trophies. Officially announced at the Tokyo Game Show 2010, The ICO and Shadow of the Colossus Collection is a PlayStation 3-exclusive re-release of the classic PlayStation 2 games Ico and Shadow of the Colossus.
