Yesterday's Bank Holiday in the UK meant you have missed the news – I did anyway – that Sony are releasing revamped versions of God of War I&II for the PS3. The classic PS2 games will have a graphical spruce up (the originals looked great anyway) and now run in 720p and 60 frames per second. Trophies will also be added too. Yes, you probably played these games first time round but I'm interested anyway – are you? The only downer - no news yet on a European release yet. Assuming that is announced soon let's hope God of War is followed by some other classic PS2 remakes – notably Ico and the original Jak and Daxter. With no backwards compatibility on the new PS3 Slim these sort of remakes become more important than ever.
Back to the Bank Holiday then and the biggest release this weekend was Batman. My copy is still stuck in Arkham Asylum – long story – so my Bank Holiday gaming was spent with Tales of Monkey Island Part 2 (all good) and another few overs of the increasingly frustrating Ashes game (far too many run outs). Anyway, how was your Bank Holiday gaming?
