Hopefully it is something new as the game was already given the HD remaster treatment on PS3. If it is a remake (like the PS4 ratchet and clank) I won't be disappointed but it would just fit the current narrative of sony and older games.
If they Remake it, fully from the ground up Remake it, I would buy it in a heartbeat, want to get lost in that strange land again, the game was so ahead of its time, that sometimes even the remaster didn't run as intended.
I laugh when reading ppl bitching about a SOTC remaster but in other articles are praising original Xbox box BC. Hilarious! As if it would be better to play a game from 2 gens ago in its original form, as opposed to having it improved upon and replay it that way.
@smiel... maybe that's because SotC was already remastered on the PS3. Plays pretty damn good and looks good in HD. It also cost you again (if you bought the original) and if this is another remake then guess what... it will cost you again.
As for og xb, that doesnt cost anything (that we know of) and some of those games still hold up well today. So... yeah xb bc can be praised because it is taking something old and making it feel new again for free instead of taking something that was old, was remastered and then remastering it again for more $$ (that's just a possibility, not an exact run down of how it will be).
Like i said above. the sony narrative is that they dont know why people will play older games but as long as there is interest... they will be glad to sell them back to you (even if you already own them).
I dont care if its remake or remaster straight day one purchase. Just last week playing the last guardian i thought about sotc, i even put the soundtrack on and wished sony made a remake/remaster..... oh how my wish has came true!
Shawn Layden's Twitter profile pic is Ratchet, maybe a sign of the new reboot Ratchet and Clank 2 appearing. Also the T shirt he wears at the E3 presentation could be another clue, he wore a Crash Bandicoot shirt years ago and the Trilogy Remaster is releasing at the end of this month (also Coco is fully playable in every level of the three games, she likely would have to be unlocked after completing the campaign first. And clues on Crash Team Racing on the Warped Trophies).
For all we know Sony might have simply told their lawyers to hold off on making the trademarks official so that way they could have a very explosive E3 as we haven't really got a lot of leaks from them compared to others.
Yeah, ICO and Shadow of the Colossus are masterpieces and some of my most memorable games of all time. I already own the remastered collection for my PS3, as well as the originals on PS2, but if they actually remade SotC I would buy it.
Strange. If it's a remake I thought they might have made a remake of ICO first...not something we really need though. I'm sure remake wise I could think of another few titles which would be better suited.
Not like them to go back sequel wise...thought it would be something new if it was a sequel
I mean sure it makes sense if you're trying to look at it that way but I think all Fox is trying to say is that it would make more sense for them to release it the way they were originally released and not necessary in the original chronological order of the actual timeline of the series itself.
Can we be sure that this is not related to the movie they have been working on for years? Sony's press conference would be a decently appropriate place to announce the status of the movie or even show a trailer, if they are confident in it being a good movie.
"We are passionately at work remaking a classic for current-gen game systems, growing our capabilities as a team and raising the bar for what fans anticipate from us."
Holy Sh!t... Playstation owners would go APE SH!T for a sequel, prequel, or anything and esp if made by team ico... Just as long as theyve been working on it for a few years and it doesnt take a 10th the time it took them to release The Last Guardian (even though it was a small team that made tlg) to release this game.
Remake?
Sequel?
Give it to meeeeeee!!
Hopefully it is not just an IP renewal
I always prefer to see new IPs/new content, but this would actually be huge. A remake of one of my fav ever games. Get hyped.
Strange. If it's a remake I thought they might have made a remake of ICO first...not something we really need though. I'm sure remake wise I could think of another few titles which would be better suited.

Wonder what it is.
I hope it's a remake. Shadow of The Colossus doesn't really need a sequel imo.
Wow, this would be absolutely massive. A slam dunk for Sony if that turns out to be the case.
