Ico and Shadow of the Colossus Collection Coming in Spring 2011

by Alice O'Connor, Sep 16, 2010 1:20pm PDT

Sony has confirmed that the HD revamps of Team Ico's PlayStation 2 classics Ico and Shadow of the Colossus will be coming to North American and European PS3s next year on a single Blu-ray disc--unlike in Japan, where they're being released individually.

Shadow of the Colossus and Ico in lovely 1080p.

As well as supporting HD resolutions, the pair will boast PlayStation Network trophies and support for 3D-o-vision. According to Kotaku, the games will run at 30fps and have gone through what the site calls "extensive re-texturing." Ico will be the European edition, which had extra content including a different ending and a co-op mode.

The Ico and Shadow of the Colossus Collection is due on PlayStation 3 in spring 2011.

Why on Earth can't they get this game to run at 60fps? They must be adding some EXTREME textures. Or giant fields of individual grass blades or something.

  As long as it doesn't dip below 30 it will be a much better experience than the ps2 version.
