The most animation-impressive games I have ever played look even more impressive emulated in HD. For me, Shadow of the Colossus in particular is the pinnacle of “epicness”, efficiency, effectiveness, and beauty in games thus far. These two titles hold a special place in my heart, and in my game collection.

I remember seeing ICO in the video game bargain bin at the local Superstore… it was only $7.99! The game was in my hands, pass the checkout counter, and out of the store so fast, you’d have expected a security guard to come chasing after me believing I had shoplifted it. Never underestimate the bargain bin, for jewels they hold.

Check out the Eurogamer post here for videos of both ICO and Shadow of the Colossus being emulated in HD.

One can only hope that Sony gives them the God of War Collection-style treatment… and soon.
