"PlayStation Collections" Announced For SCEA (God Of War, Infamous, Ratchet HD)

I bet we're going to see an Uncharted one eventually. And then perhaps a Resistance/Ratchet collection.

I hope it's a double Ratchet and Clank trilogy collection(R&C 1/GC/UYA and R&C ToD/QFB/ACiT).

But they could also include deadlocked, size matters, secret agent, full frontal assault, and
all 4 one if they felt so inclined.

They should do the same with Jak and Daxter: 1/2/3 and then jak x combat racing, daxter, and lost frontier.

EDIT: It seems they should just release a normal collection for the first 3 ratchets, and then a gold collection including everything like god of war.

Also, I'd buy the killzone, resistance, and uncharted ones if they came bundled with their respective psp/psvita versions.

Didn't they add trophies to the PS2 Ratchets?

If so, I'd support a Resistance collection just to be able to play Resistance: Fall of Man again with trophies. Also maybe it would get enough people online for me to play that again- best online multiplayer on PS3 this gen.

Maybe at launch, but FoM quickly deteriorated into one-hit-kill matches with infinite ammo. Everybody jumped into custom rooms instead of match making... I always wanted vehicles in those games online too.

A collection would rock, though. $40 for all three?

Should probably not trust the 7-11 security cameras quite so much
That God of War package is tempting, I only played the first one but I'd jump on that if it was less than £30.

I'll probably get the GoW Complete collection. I've already played the previous HD collections and GoW III, but I don't own them. I wonder how many discs it is.

Already own Infamous 2, which I love, but I don't have the original or Festival of Blood. I might get that too. It's too bad they didn't do a Complete Ratchet collection like the GoW Saga one. But that would be like 8 games or something.

I love these collections. Great deals on great remastered games.

Will be getting Ratchet and GoW, and already own the Jak collection. I've only played the first GoW so this will be great for me.

Also, the Ratchet collection has the phenomenal multiplayer from Up Your Arsenal!

Can't wait to hear this again after all these years....this elevator type music in the multiplayer waiting room was so awesome...

Awesome box art. Genuinely like all of them. Even the gold circle/cogs. That GoW one is definitely going to be a day 1 buy for me.

Region free?

Definitely importing the GoW collection if it is. Absolute steal of a price.

Shit, I forgot about region free.

Incidentally the God of War collection is the only game I've ever imported (wanted to play it before 3, but there was an inexplicably long wait for the European version) so maybe it'll be another God of War related purchase for my second import.

It's just a shame Ratchet TOD and QFB never did get trophy support.

JStevenson explained one time why TOD (and presumably QFB also) didn't ever get a patch for trophies. Something along the lines of the game wasn't designed to "look" for a trophy patch since when they were making it, Sony didn't have their full trophy plan/infrastructure in place yet. Maybe he'll stop by and clarify...

No 3D either it was a typo

That was actually a typo we’re correcting in a bit. Our bad…. =(

No 3D for God of War 3.

I hope that rhyme eases the pain.

Just need to pick up God of War Origins and InFamous 2 from those announced games. Have everything else (thank you Europe and region-free gaming!).

Shouldn't have picked up the R&C collection only because the NA boxart is 10x better. =\

I don't own any of the God of War games, so that collection is mine. I got the two main InFamous games for free, I may grab that one so I can free up some hard drive space and support the developers.

Ratchet might be in my future, too.

I hope they've cut the resolution instead of the framerate. 60 FPS 3D God of War 3 would be mind blowing.

I find this method pretty much ruins 3D gaming for me.

I would much rather a drop in fps that is hard to notice, than lower res textures that instantly make the game look worse.

I hope I am not alone in this to be honest.

Edit: Doesn't matter. 3D was a typo for GOW3.

Wow, God of War for $40 is an awesome price. And I'll definitely buy inFAMOUS for $30.

/edit: Scratch that. Sounds like inFAMOUS will be $40.

Hmmm...the PS blog says the inFamous collection is $39.99. Sucker Punch says $29.99. It's not for sale yet anywhere, so there's no way of telling which price is correct.

If it's the cheaper price, I may just trade in my copy of inFamous 2 and get this instead. August 28th should be expensive, with that, plus the R&C and Journey collections.

This is an excellent move by sony. very good for the consumers. I hope we see more bundles like this soon.

That god of war box art is so awesome
 
You also get a free month of PS+ with the GoW collection.

Damn?

So... buy GoW collection and get Infamous 2 and shit loads of other games for a month? :p

Oh and Glad I got my question answered. I already own all of GoW games and the only thing that'll warrant a purchase if all were included in disc. Sadly, it isn't. It's still a great collection though.

wow. i'm really surprised that the covers don't look like complete shit. so, were they actually listening to all of our bitching about the hd collections boxarts??

i'm definitely picking up ratchet, but already own the other games.

Own all the GOW games but would have purchased the collection if origins was on disc.

Can't wait for the Resistance Trilogy. Fingers crossed for a chimeran box art, similar to resistance 2 collectors edition. I don't want to see another chimeran skull or hale.
