Reworked versions of God of War and God of War II, featuring smoother graphics running at a faster frame rate, hits stores this holiday on a single Blu-ray disc, Sony Computer Entertainment announced this morning.
God of War Collection will feature both Playstation 3 games running at 1280 by 720 resolution and 60 frames per a second. The collection, which will cost $40, will also include trophy support for the games.
"We are excited today to announce God of War Collection," said Scott Rohde, vice president, Worldwide Studios America. "Our fans spoke and we listened; thanks to our partnership with Bluepoint Games, fans and newcomers to the series can experience the epic God of War and God of War II saga in stunning 720p on PS3. This Blu-ray Disc compilation brings Kratos to PS3 even earlier than expected."
The collection comes just months before God of War III is scheduled to hit stores on March 2010 for the Playstation 3.
The idea of a Blu-ray collection of the two PS2 games, which sell used for about $35 total at Gamestop, first came to light in April when a survey leaked about the notion.
I might pick this up (and leave it shrink wrapped) because I've never played either game yet. I don't understand why they won't run in 1080.

Console X fans so starved for decent games they are chomping at the bit to buy slightly modified up-ports.
Sad how this sentence applies to 2/3 systems this gen.

Actualy, I'm a neurotic person who gets bothered by small things easily. So I actually do anticipate rereleases with minor fixes and upgrades. I just wish Nintendo did a pikmin 1+2 disc like metroid.

You also claim to have enjoyed Wii Music, and have repeatedly referred to it as "a game", so I think we all know to just disregard you at this point.

And for the fourth or fifth time I'm going to point out you've never played Wii Music. But you can have your opinion mang, no matter how uninformed it is. <3 Wii Music <3

Give me a similar package with Ico and Shadow of the Colossus and I'll kiss Sony's butt all day long.

Considering the framerate for the PS2 games is 60fps I don't like this pr higher framerate bullshit. I mean I guess it could mean no screen tearing like the PS2 ones are plagued with, but I somehow doubt they'll eliminate the tearing as that would require real programming and not just emulation.
The games will probably be identical to PS2 versions running upscaled.

But Trophies! :hyper :hyper TROPHIES, YEAH! :hyper :hyper

Really, it's just a collection of games being repackaged for the PS3. $20 per game isn't bad. I don't see why anyone played or owns these games already would care though.

Considering the framerate for the PS2 games is 60fps I don't like this pr higher framerate bullshit.It hardly maintains that. Sure, you get 60 fps while running around the empty locales most of the time, but whenever the combat heats up, the framerate drops. It is anything but stable.
Look for a Jak collection right before the PS3 Jak is out.
