Sony: What PS2 Titles Should Go High-Def On PS3?

Late last year, Sony released The God of War Collection , which featured high-def remastered versions of the first two installments in the esteemed franchise.

Now, Sony wants to know what other PS3 classics should make high-definition resurgences on the PlayStation 3. It has long since been rumored that a collection featuring ICO and Shadow of the Colossus is headed our way, but right now, there's no concrete or official evidence to support the speculation. Even so, you can give them your input by responding to a GoWIII survey Sony apparently sent around; a NeoGAF forumite has posted the last question:

"What titles would you like to see in a future collection (2 or more PS2 titles upgraded with similar features to God of War Collection)?"

Oh man, they're bound to get a bunch of different responses. Perhaps on the top of the list will be games like Final Fantasy X , Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty or – dare we hope – Twisted Metal: Black ? There were plenty of classics in the PS2 days and many of them would greatly benefit from a jump to high-def Blu-Ray and Trophy support. Which titles would you most like to see shine once more?

I hope they will also consider Resident Evil 2 remake in PS3. I'm sure it will be a lot scarier in HD 1080p

Devil May Cry series
Final Fantasy Series (good luck getting help from Square Enix with that one, 1 Through 10 could EASILY be updated to 720p, and all fit on a single Blu Ray Disc)

X-Men Legends Series anyone?
Gauntlet Dark Legacy

Pretty Much anything that appeared on the PS1/PS2 which had sequels would make a great collection release for the PS3.

– MGS 2: Substance and MGS 3: Subsistance
– ICO and Shadow of the Colossus
– Final Fantasy X and XII
– Kingdom Hearts 1 and 2
– Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 3 FES and 4
– GTA III, Vice City and San Andreas
– Silent Hill 2,3 and 4
– Jak and Daxter trilogy
– Prince of Persia trilogy
– Ratchet and Clank trilogy
– Devil May Cry trilogy
– Timesplitters trilogy
– Hitman trilogy
– Max Payne 1 and 2

– Red Faction 1 and 2
– Splinter Cell trilogy
– Resident Evil 4 and Code Veronica X
– Okami
– Psychonauts
– Onimusha trilogy
– Guitar Hero 1 and 2
– Sly Raccoon (Sly Cooper) trilogy
– SSX trilogy
– Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 and 4
– Burnout trilogy
– Time Crisis 2 and 3 (with G-CON 3 or Move support)

– Tomb Raider Legend and Anniversary
– Beyond Good or Evil
– Twisted Metal Black
– Fahrenheit (Indigo Prophecy)
– Fatal Frame Collection
– ZOE (Zone of the Enders) 1 and 2
– Xenogears and Xenosaga
– Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers and Return of the King
– Star Wars Battlefront 1 and 2
– Super Monkey Ball Deluxe

(phew) I believe that is the complete list of all PS2 gems wanted. Now Ben, could you please copy this list and send it to everyone you know in the industry?

If anyone believes I am missing any big name or highly desired games on this list, feel free to respond.

If most of the games on this list can be developed over the next 3-4 years, there will be many a happy hardcore gamer.

If we get San Andreas for ps3 I would weep in sheer joy. Vice City would also be a must-buy. Other than that I don't know any ps2 titles, hehe! I were a PC gamer prior to the ps3, and I bought the ps3 only cause I didn't have the patience to wait for the PC version of gtaIV. If I knew back then what a let down GTA IV would turn out to be then I most probably would not have been a ps3 owner today…!

Jak 2 & 3 (you could do the original too but that would be asking too much)

Sly Cooper 2 & 3

seems like SOTC and Ico are happening so thats cool

Devil May Cry 1&3 (though I could do with just 1)

Onimusha 1&3 then do a set with 2&4

Dark Cloud 1&2

I would love to see the Gamecube Resident Evil 1 and RE: Zero remastered in HD.

Grandia 3

I could go on, but I will stop there.

hello …

definitely a Team ICO collection – i'm ready to pre-order a pre-order LOL 😉

others would be: Resident Evil series, Indigo Prophecy (Farenheit), Mortal Kombat series (LOL, yeah i'm a fan!), maybe Silent Hill or Tomb raider series.

But for now just bring me Team ICO & i'll be forever grateful.

cheers!

DMC1! (forget DMC2, I wasted my money on that thinking I got a good deal of two discs for a game price of one. yeesh)
FFX! FFX-2 (yeah, may be cheesy but I enjoyed it)!
MGS2 and MGS3! And yeah, Onimusha (so that I can give it a try. I still haven't been able to play any Onimusha game, so bring it on.)

Edit: I almost forgot… Zone of the Enders! Nice game that one. Must buy for those who haven't yet tried.

Well, I'm not sure which one's of these might not be exclusive to Playstation family, but I really don't care, because I still want to see ALL of these games on the PS3, done in a much better HD.

From my own collection of PS2 titles(mostly)..
MGS
Ace Combat
Beyond Good & Evil
Wolfenstein
True Crime
Gungrave
Headhunter
Manhunt
Getaway
Gun
Max Payne
Ico-SOTC
Indigo Prophecy(the uncut "Fahrenheit" version)

All from my own PS1 collection….
G-Police
Syphon Filter
Ace Combat
MGS
Colony Wars
Crash Bandicoot
Oddworld
Spec-ops(the PS1 versions all had graphic's that were true crap. And that's probably why they were all only going for a unheard of super-low price of just $9.99 each).

Just saying that I would like to see The Legacy of Kain series as one complete game with an emphasis on styling it after Soul Reaver 2 (ambiance and mechanics) and Defiance(with ambiance and without the DMC mechanics,. ie. camera and fighting)and a solid conclusion to the story, maybe Kain fulfilling the prophecy? They must have as good or better acting and music as they did in SR2!
