Widely considered two of the best games ever made, these multiple award-winning and well loved PS2 titles will be fully remastered in 1080p, with trophy and 3D support to boot.
"Each day this week our writer Vaughn will be putting up an article about one particular level, place, moment, in a game that’s really captures the titles essence but because of this there could be spoilers ahead.. It’s called Levelling Out and for day three he’s looking at Shadow of the Colossus.
"The long and tired debate ‘are video games an art form’ is so bulky that I could write many articles citing examples of why. However, this isn’t an article about that topic, and if it was it would be incredibly late to the party. Although I won’t be drawing upon artistic merit, I will be talking about one game that supports the argument more than anything else that’s come in the last few years: Team Ico’s dark and powerful tale of a young mans love for another and the lengths he will go to save her. I am, of course, talking about Shadow of the Colossus - but in particular, the Colossi themselves."
Join Josiah and Sam as they venture into the old-school world of ICO, remastered in HD for PlayStation 3. As two ICO virgins, Josie and Sam discover this 11-year-old game, leading you through the good, the bad, and the downright peculiar.
In this episode, our two adventurers meet the main characters of ICO, solve some puzzles, and explore the dangers of casual racism.
I just started playing ICO and man I should have played it way back when it first came out. It's a very special game but it's not for everyone.
ICO was an amazing game for its time, but games have come a long way since then and it's interesting to see what mechanics are dated now. ICO is far more frustrating than it use to be and this is a look at why that is.
HOLY SHIT this is awesome, they even thought of the purists! Reverse-side cover art RULES!
But as usual, SCEA is screwing this up:

They didn't even mention reverse-side art! It better be there, or I'll be cracking skulls over at the Foster City headquarters.
Finally, I've waited so long for this!
