With rumors suggesting that Team Ico's art house games,
ICO and
Shadow of the Colossus, will receive the
God of War Collection Blu-ray treatment,
Digital Foundry decided to have a look at what the results might be. Using PC emulation -- which reportedly got "very, very close" to looking like the final product with
God of War -- the group captured video of the SD version and what the games
may look like in HD.
God of War's PS3-fication allegedly didn't replace any in-game art "aside from the on-screen text and button graphics." If
ICO and
Colossus are indeed given the same Blu-ray treatment, the latter is sure to benefit from the PS3's hardware.
Shadow of the Colossus pushed the PS2's tech to the breaking point, with a frame rate that could turn the Colossi into
Harryhausen monsters.
