September marks the beginning of the Q4 gaming rush. From now until the end of the year, many huge and anticipated games are finally hitting store shelves and going live on your favorite digital distribution platform. Everything from Rage to Skyrim will be out before Christmas.
But you don't have a bottomless wallet. Consequently, you'll have to choose your day-one purchases wisely. So if you only buy one game this month, make it The ICO and Shadow of the Colossus Collection.
YouTube’s ‘reznoire’ has shared three new videos, showing three PS3 exclusive games running on the best Playstation 3 emulator, RPCS3. These three games are The Ico & Shadow of the Colossus Collection, Heavenly Sword and Journey.
Technically Shadow of the Colossus is a PS2 remaster on PS3 but it is interesting seeing the progress made with emulation.

Favourite video game boss fights for me are in The Shadow of the Colossus, very few other games have such good boss fight design.
I'd probably go with Terra's Armor from KH2 FM. The very assence of overpowered superboss, even Sephiroth can't put a finger on him... or rather it.
I thought the Storm King fight in Demon's Souls using the Storm Ruler Sword was effing awesome.
It's a wise decision if you've never played them before and, even if you have, you get to re-live these masterpieces in HD or even 3D.
I'm buying roughly four games this September but, if I could only buy one, this would definitely be my first choice.
Definitely buying this collection.
Shadow of the Colossus was one of the greatest games I've ever played. This game is an instant first day buy for me. Since I've never played Ico, it'll be an awesome time to get to play it.
