HD God of War I & II due this holiday

Sweet. I'm sure they'll charge $100 for this in Australia to continue our price screwing.

These companies are killing me by releasing awesome games all near each other.

720p 60FPS GoW 1 and 2 with the Demo of GoW 3. Oh my... The same day CODMW2 will release. I don't know what game I will buy between those. Both for sure.

i think that's gonna be nice from sony

Oh yeah!

MGS REmake now!

TROPHYS PS3 REMAKES OMFG

bring it on HD style!!!!!!!Ghost of Sparta!!!!

Oh I'm loving this! I sold my old PS2 and now I'll finally have GOW on my PS3.

This is awesome. And not to sound selfish, but, Metal gear 1, 2, & 3 in HD, please.

What about Kingdom Hearts I & II? That would be awesome.

i hope there is a demo in there

Very nice! Can't wait and am actually glad I did not pick up the regular versions before with this godly beast on its way. This is a good choice for the series as reinforcing past games is a definite way to get a larger audience, especially since the trilogy is about to come to a close with God of War Three. Yikes! What can we mortals do but tremble on the eve of redemption?

This actually made my morning. i'm really looking forward to this. and trophies to boot that's just an added bonus of awesome.

i played the original god of war like 3 or 4 times and can go through it again and again and again because it is awesome,i never got the chance to play the second game though, im gonna buy this because it is in glorious HD and the trophies of course.

that would be amazing if they did that for metal gear solid 1 , 2 , 3 and for final fantasy 7 i would buy same day

nice never got a chance to play them on ps2 cant wait for it then later come gow 3333333333333333333333

EXCELLENT!

Long Life Ghost Of Sparta!!!! I'll be willing to do anything for him!!!!!!!!!!!!

I just want this for Trophies simple as that.

hey, does anyone know how much memory its going to take up on the HDD?

Is it going to be coming out in the UK also? As I haven't seen it mentioned anywhere other than on US websites =( cloudstrife75 your right what about FFVII, FFVIII, FFIX & FFX they would look amazing on the PS3!

what about final fantasy 7 and 8?

The must get game for this year, God of War 1 & 2 in HD freaken AWESOME!!!!!! Now I am so glad I waited to by these games.

if it's the same game i'm not buying it who cares about the graphics

cant wait

If they ever did this with Final Fantasy X and X-2 I think I'd take a two week vacation and never leave the house once they came out! I hope it sells so good that other developers follow suit. $40 is an incredible value for this, I think!

Un-freakin-believable how excited I am for this. My PS3 that had backward compatibility died on me and I picked up the slim, knowing I would have eventually bought it anyway. Wanted to play 1 & 2 again so badly before GOW3 comes out that I was considering buying a used PS2 just for that again!

sweet, always wanted to play GoW 1+2 but couldn't afford it at the time and my ps3 doesn't have backwards comp, that and MW2 should keep me entertained until the GoW 3

i still like psx/ps2 games and god of war 1 and 2 hi-def sounds good but i wouldnt buy it

@ rht992 Don't worry, the ps3 is multi-region so we can still import it without any hassle. As long as there's no DLC we'll be fine. That said, I just bought God of War 2 on ebay a couple of months ago, and now I feel i may need to splash out again (who can deny the Gods?).

Will trophies be available for the original versions? Or just this HD version?

@SalarianChemist How do you know that GOW III's framerate will drop so much? (Perhaps it is through logic that you should predict this, based on past performances, but even so, you shouldn't make that assumption in the way you did without evidence to back that up.)

sweet,i'l collect all of the god of war ps3 series (once i get one).It would also be awesome if they made mgs2:substance and mgs3:subsistence for the ps3 as well

I de rather keep it for me PS2 for now and avoid getting milked. I will consider it after the GOW III hype goes away and it may appear in a trilogy special offer.

my ps2 is officially for sale now

Not coming to Europe. . . . . bummer

Niiiiiice!

This isn't a surprise, because reliable sources in the industry had continuously been saying that these two games were going to appear on the same Blu-ray disc that God of War 3 was released on. When God of War 3 became yet another PS3 game to be delayed, Sony was in the undesirable position of having the remixed versions of the first two games complete, but not the disc it was supposed to be released on. I think Sony is making the right decision by releasing these two versions at a lower price, even without God of War 3. It's nice to see that the games will run at a smooth 60 frames per second on the PS3. One of the biggest complaints people had against God of War 1 & 2 was that they dropped all the way down to 20 frames per second when the action picked up. Thankfully this was solved for thier PS3 release. The only bad thing is that God of War 3 on the PS3 suffers from the same problem of dropping all the way down to 20 frames per second during those intense action scenes.

A good idea. That begs for more games to be added to the list of "HD updates."

Nice - I love the fact that they added Trophies to these games. I think they should do that for all rereleases they do, be them on PSN or otherwise. I realise that it could be a fairly complicated process, as you'd need to have the original code in order to embed the actual triggers for the Trophies, but it would still be great.

i'm definetely buying this, since my PS2 broke... Besides it will be entretaining to get all the trophies... I just wish they did this with other PS2 games........

why not a hd mgs remake? Nintendo already done half the job for them with twin snakes.

ahh ment cheap..rrg typos!

Hmm... im all for remasterd classics buuuuttt! has to be chap and nearly free.. most of us already have these games so yeah.. and its tuf going back to play old games with so much being tosst out there...$40? ....................................HAHA!!! no thank you... make it $5 and its a deal lmao.

That's really cool!! I hope they give HD remakes for other titles too, like MGS, DMC and Resident Evil. It would be nice to have each one on a single disk and not look weird when I played on a HDTV.

wish they put chains of olympus in there

freaking sweeeeet!!!!

@Jstation3 Not a bad idea, but cmon those titles don't really need remakes! Ha! Don't really know why god of war 1 & 2 are but no clue! Metal Gear Solid 2 was my favorite and a remake... SURE!

Alright cool, this is great for people like me who somehow haven't played these two titles! Course with backward compatibility...bla bla you know what I mean. Oh well hd graphics...nice!!! 40 bucks! !
