Okay after just posting a comment about this very same thing I decided to make a blog about it. This blog that I am currently writing is about more developers taking a chance to make collection titles similar to Sega's Ultimate Genesis and Santa Monica's God of War.
Now I know some developers don't have the resources or money available, but a quick poll could show whether or not it would actually be a worth while investment. For instance one such series in particular I'd like to see in a collection title is Xenosaga [Which would include all episodes]. That is by far one of my favorite RPGs that I have played on the PS2 and would be nice collection to add especially for those who don't have a PS2 to play them.
Now like others I'd also like to see Shadow of the colosseus and Ico in a collection. As I am one of those people who never got a chance to play them and currently trying to pay off a variety of things so my money fund is limited besides it's hard to find these games! So make it easier and just place them in a collection title.
All of this sounds good in theory, but as most gamers are wondering what about the price? Well I thought of that to. God of War had a pretty good price point, being that it was 40.00 for two games. I'd say that would be a good place to start if there were two games on the same disc. Though if it were three how about 50.00 or 60.00? I wouldn't go any higher than that though.
All in all I hope more developers will step up and make a few collection titles for other gamers that never got the chance to play their games.
P.S.
Any additions to the list of games that should be put in collections please feel free to list.
Microsoft announced its financial results for Q3 of fiscal year 2026, including an update on its gaming Xbox business and more.
Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.
To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.
The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.
Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.
15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.
These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
The charity event will be streamed live from Gamescom in August.
Thanks to the slip-up of an artist working on the title, we now have more evidence that a new Injustice game is in the works.
A Team Ico HD Collection along with (or including) The Last Guardian would be amazing. Of course, trophies would be the added bonus.
There is a Devil May Cry box for ps2, but i would really love it if they got the GOW collection treatment. Having played and thoroughly enjoyed the 4th installment, i couldn't help wanting to know my roots. Though, as you said above, i dont have a ps2 and my ps3 is not BC so i look stupid. plus the oldest devil may cry is much older than the first god of war, and has sold either just as well or better. i heard there were issues in the 2nd DMC which could be addressed in a remake, and the praised 3rd one could get treated to HD and trophy/achievements. well all would get HD and possibly extra missions or unlockables. Furthermore, it would be an xbox owners first opportunity to enjoy the beginning of a storied and revered franchise. The 4th one was released on 360 but of course there are people like myself who had no knowledge of the story prior. It could be released to celebrate the unannounced but inevitable Devil May Cry 5 (come on capcom, this lifetime please)
great read tho, please check and comment on my blog postings:
