It doesn’t really affect us here in Europe because unless I’m mistaken SCEE haven’t announced plans to let us get our hands on the hotly anticipated 720p updates of the two PS2 God Of War games. Still, if you’re thinking of importing the Collection you’ll be happy to know that the pack contains a voucher code for a playable demo of God Of War III for the PlayStation 3 which can be redeemed on the Store on the day of release.
The upscaled HD versions of the first two God Of War games feature 2x anti-aliased graphics, 60 frames a second gameplay and Trophies, and the full Collection (still missing the PSP game, sadly) is due in November in the US.

O ye of little faith. When has Sony let you down before?
Then again they still haven’t finalised pre-order incentives for MAG yet when US did ages ago!

There isn’t a single region-locked PS3 game.

Yeah this isnt exactly a ps3 game. Hopefully though, if its running in 720p, it means its neither PAL or NTSC so it should run.

I can’t believe people in the States complaining about PS2 re-releases of this calibre, whilst we’re actually getting PS3 re-releases (PAIN, WipEout)!!
I’m really pissed off with SCEE atm, really…

Pre-ordered this a few weeks back. The demo is a nice bonus, but seeing as we aren;t getting the collection over here prior to GoW 3’s release(Seemingly), wouldn;t it be an idea for them to at least give us the demo to download when it’s ready for the Americans? Unlikely I know, but it’d make a decent chrimbo pressie.

I tried to pre-order it from Amazon.com, but they restricted delivery of the collection to addresses in the US.

Maybe Europe will get GOWIII super collectors edition with GOWI and II that’s what I hope for.

I was lucky enough to be chatting with an employee of SCEE & we were talking about this game & how utterly amazing it is! So I am assuming from our little talk that WE are getting this! Its amazing who you bump into at a retro gaming event ;o)

Although I’ve completed both these games 100% without Trophies, I’d be more than willing to give them another section of my lifetime in aim of Platinums…

Crash Bandicoot! Brought 1,3 and racing off the store but no trophies
. GTA series seeing as the fourth was crap. Tony Hawks would be good too.
