Sony Considering More 'HD Conversions'
by Alice O'Connor, Jun 28, 2010 7:00am PDTSony is looking into creating more "HD conversions" of older titles in the same vein as 2009's God of War Collection and the upcoming Sly Collection, Sony Computer Entertainment Worldwide Studios president Shuhei Yoshida has told IGN.
"Santa Monica Studios had the brilliant idea to upgrade and improve God of War for PS3 with the God of War Collection that we released last year," said Yoshida. "There were a lot of positive reactions from consumers in doing that, and now we get a lot of suggestions for types of packs they'd like to see," he explained, adding that "we are looking to continue to do these HD conversions."
As to the question of whether PlayStation 2 titles will be released for download via the PlayStation Network, Yoshida deflected "We are looking into ways how we can deliver the PS2 library to PS3 consumers, but were are not ready to announce anything yet."

ICO and SotC are a perfect example of that IMO. They just look great the way they were.. Even SotC's low framerate added to the cinematic experience..
Maybe I'm just one of those nostalgia addict. :(
Who the fuck am I fooling, if they release Ico/SotC in HD i'll totally buy them on day one.

I think with 3D games you have an opportunity to up the textures and resolution in a way that preserves the original feel (best example I can think of is the Rare64 games on XBLA) and allows a new generation of gamers to experience the awesomeness.
