>*plays ico's ending theme in its entirety on the fucking title screen*
Bravo Bluepoint
Seriously though this is by far the most egregious fucking thing they ever did IMO

Did you really need ANOTHER udedaslop thread?

>>723760216 (OP)
Is there any way i can get JUST shadow of the colossus with no gay ass ico for ps3?

>>723761913
games that are known for pushing its generations limits should be played on the original and intended hardware. Might as well play the remake. The game is butchered on ps3

>>723762591
Based + True Take

>>723762591
It's 3D though

>>723762591
This game wasn't really that impressive releasing around the same time as Doom 3, Half-Life 2, God of War, Medal of Honor: Pacific Assault, Far Cry, and Resident Evil 4. It was just a drop in the bucket with all the other big stuff going on at the time.

I remember the climbing physics being absolutely fucked in this port

>>723765175
Anon I'm sorry but you are fucking retarded if you believe this.

>>723762591
>The game is butchered on ps3
Fucking how, by making it run at a stable framerate?

>>723766234
I think he meant some of the missing visual effects. It's just that they don't work in 3D (or look weird in it), so they disable them for the sake of parity.
A lot of 3D remasters did this.

A woman I'd impregnate wouldn't want an abortion

Imagine hating ICO.

I hate that there's no PC port. I also want to play The Last Guardian

>>723762591
Starting to think you guys are exaggerating things about this collection. I wont deny certain things like what the OP said but the games look perfectly playable from what I have seen.

>>723768219
I don't have comparison pics on hand but I do know that any scene with fog in SotC is completely fucked on PS3. Atmosphere is ruined in a lot of scenes because of this. Not surprisingly really, Silent Hill had the same problem. PS2 is completely unmatched in its ability to draw half transparent textures really fucking fast.

>>723768714
SOTC isn't as bad as Ico but there is still a notable downgrade t hat affects the atmosphere of the game. SOTC's effects were really subtle compared to Ico, but at the same time they were more impressive and volumetric.

I'd say probably the worst compilation menu I've dealt with is the DMC HD Collection.

It's a total assault on the senses. Virtual Boy black and red screens with a loud click every time you move the cursor, while also dealing with loud bells and that initial voice that says DEVIL MAY CRY HD COLLECTION.

>>723768219
>/v/ exaggerating about how bad something is
What? No...

>>723769025
The BEST compilation menu I've ever had the pleasure of experiencing is Sonic Mega Collection

I still have this exact game box
Unopened, still in its plastic wrap

>>723769308
You gonna play it or just leave it in the plastic like a hoarder collectorfag subhuman parasite?

>>723768395
As someone who played SH2 and 3 on original hardware and then replayed them again on my 360 in the HD collection, I think people really overstated how bad the port was. Is the fog fucked up in a lot of areas? Yeah. Are there some shitty textures? Yeah. Does the game still otherwise run perfectly fine? Yeah. Absolutely when you put them side by side the original mogs the ports, but it's subtle enough that it doesn't really matter. The games is strong enough that even with less impressive fog it's still Silent fucking Hill 2 and one of the best games ever.

>>723769357
My ps3 is missing its power cable and is currently rotting away in my shed

Demons Souls was way worse

>>723769516
>Does the game still otherwise run perfectly fine? Yeah
I can't speak for 360 but I know on PS3 it has massive framerate issues.
Anyway why are you defending shitty ports? What do you gain from doing that? They force you to use the shitty new voice acting for SH3 and that's a deal breaker right there. God I fucking hate retards.

you have severe autism

I thinks it's precisely because of the 3D thing >>723766364

>>723769752
I care about artistic integrity and if that means I'm autistic then ok I don't care.

>>723769756
I duno what you mean but it's mostly laziness. All remasters get the subtle details wrong. Missing transparencies on hair, missing lighting, missing fog, missing specular maps, etc. Sometimes like in SOTC's case it might have been a performance thing but it was probably just laziness as usual.

>>723769947
it just means you have autistic integrity and you're going to die alone

>>723770204
>you're going to die alone
that's because I'm bald and ugly, not because of whatever autistic reason you came up with.

>>723768649
>>723768714
I always assumed that it was the same game, just at widescreen 1080p, I'm glad that I didn't buy this collection when I saw it

>>723769953
I meant that they were converted to Stereoscopic 3D for 3D TVs in those HD remaster collections. Some of the effects doesn't work in 3D, so instead of turning them off only when in 3D mode they just disabled them entirely, most likely because some suit breathed on their neck to keep parity between the 2 modes.
SotC, ICO, Ratchet & Clank, Jack and Dexter, Prince of Persia, God of War, Sly Cooper and others all had 3D

>>723770439
This remaster is fine right? I was planning to play the games on a crt, it's just for the sake of having all 3 games in one

>>723761913
Yes you fucking dumbass. The digital PSN version sells them as separate apps.
Also ICO rocks fuck you.

>>723770324
Never ever assume remasters are the same.

>>723770439
Oh I see. Maybe but I doubt it. It's just the same kind of fingerprint you see on other games you didn't list like MGS, DMC GTA, FFX, SMT/Persona, etc. Even Nintendo games do it.

>>723769659
Criminal. Arguably the worst remake I have ever seen and it isn't even my favourite Souls or From game. I loathe many other remakes, like R&C (if that counts), Spyro, Crash NSane. But Demon's takes the cake. It's insane across the board, pictures alone can not do it justice, as they rape the sound a lot too.

>>723769516
The thing about Silent Hill though is its whole presentation which includes the visual effects like the fog is entirely the point of these games. It can maybe be forgiven if a game not as known for its graphical power or effects like Ninja Gaiden has some missing textures in its HD port but for Silent Hill to be missing this kills the whole vibe completely. Its a case of a horror game vs an action game here. Yeah the missing effects would suck for NG lets say but people aren't necessarily playing it to take in atmosphere and be scared like they would SH. So no I totally understand why people would shit on Konami for allowing such a thing.

Also about performance, on its release I saw streams and it was in fact broken from a gameplay standpoint to. This stuff got patched out so you are playing a better version of it. But from some of what I saw things were absolutely broken with awful frame rate drops and even crashing.

>>723770525
NTA and dunno about that remaster but heads up, PS3 has worse overscan on a CRT than PS2. And while we're at it, don't even think about playing PS1 games on a PS3 on a CRT, since it can't output 240p, instead doing 480i.

>>723770637
Those didn't have 3D, mostly likely because it got all fucked up when they kept cutting down, so they just said "fuck it" and released with some stuff cut anyway because it improved performance.

>>723769275
it's peak

>>723770718
How much does 480i affect the appearance of a ps1 game? the game still looks 240p no? Or does it actually run them at a higher resolution, I do have a ps2 either way

>>723776139
A 30fps game more or less looks like 240p with 480i output. Not entirely though, your brain WILL see the comb effect on fast motion.
A 60fps game will be noticeably degraded with everything looking generally unstable.
If you're using an LCD/OLED then the de-interlace step will add all sorts of horrible artefacts. Upscalers can recover a 240p image if you have a retrotink 4K or similar to hand.

>>723769659
It was appalling seeing people defend it

>>723768219
but there are important visual effects missing. The sense of scale and distance is completely off in the remasters. When youre walking over a cliff its trippy and hills feel much further than they actually are

>>723776342
>retrotink 4K
750 Dollars is brutal, what i have is an Mclassic but it doesn't matter either way
