Ico & Shadow of the Colossus HD remakes

[Number45]

Not sure if serious.

[JP]

There's a few online UK retailers taking pre-orders for this now and although it's not officially announced they do all seem to agree that it'll be out on 15th April with an RRP of ?29:99.

I'd happily pay that price for these two games but if the other HD collections are anything to go by then this should be available for about ?25:00 online.

Again, it's not official but it does seem to make sense and it follows the previous HD collections where a load of retailers all leaking the same date months before it was officially announced.

So what do people think, this in April and The Last Guardian at the end of 2011?

There's a new hands on with Shadow of The Colossus on the PlayStation Blog. Hopefully that's an indication that we'll get some more info tonight at the VGA awards and maybe even confirmation of that April release date.

Possible delay til Winter 2011, via a Kmart Rep of all people (pinch of salt?)
Both games have been confirmed as 30fps solid with nay dips.
If this delay is true may mean a 2012 release for Last Guardian?

[Lebowski]

Edge feature talks about shadow of the collosus being much improved in draw distance and frame rate, fantastic.

I did notice the other day a few retailers giving November release dates which makes me a sad panda. I'd guess a Jan-March release over here, maybe end of this year for Japan.

[Brad]

Practically zero translation work so I'd guess a worldwide release.

[w?stling]

Maybe a good sign for a Last Guardian Demo being included?

Yeah that article got me well hyped up for it.

[Number45]

Releasing separately in Japan on September 22, and together with a 100 page booklet.



Do want.

[Darwock]

Will that be the superior euro version of Ico though? And will it have the dual language options? Hmmm.

[toythatkills]

That's so pretty. Language doesn't matter, surely? It's better without it.

Was there speaky bits in SotC?

[Number45]

Is there any voice in either game (real language type voice I mean)? I certainly don't recall any, but it's been a while.

[SuperBeatBoy]

There is in both, they speak their own garbled languages. They will need subtitles any region you would play it on.

[toythatkills]

But they don't, do they? I mean, Ico certainly could do without subtitles and you'd enjoy it just as much. I never got far in SotC though, how important is understanding the subtitles to the overall plot?
