First there was God of War, then Sly, now it appears two more franchises are taking their PlayStation 2 entries and tarting them up for a release on the PlayStation 3.
Amazon France has listings for trilogy boxsets for both Splinter Cell and Prince of Persia, saying that both are set to appear on Sony’s high definition console.
This makes a whole lot of sense, since Ubisoft released trilogy boxsets for Prince of Persia and Splinter Cell on the PS2, pictured, which would surely be the games bound for the HD treatment.

Monday, August 9, 2010 at 7:54 PMAs an owner of the 1st 2 splinter cell games on the ps2,, I hope it’s not some lazy graphics renovation. the inferior visuals never bothered me as much as the way in which the ps2 versions always got short changed in the levels.
i played the xbox version a few years later and the difference was night and day. the levels seemed more complete (more guards and slightly more challenges in the security setups), and they only required ONE loading sequence per level.

Monday, August 9, 2010 at 8:38 PMThe Sands of Time was great fun. Really enjoyed the characters and gameplay. I’d be sorely tempted to purchase the PS3 remake.
The Warrior Within was one of the few games I’ve completely given up on. Utterly lost interest in it. It was just so … bland. I reached zero desire to ever play it again.
I never did bother with The Two Thrones, or any other Price of Persia game since. The previous game had sucked all the joy out of the series for me.
I’ve never played the Splinter Cell series. That may be interesting.
Still waiting patiently for the Team ICO remakes. That will be a day -30 purchase for me (i.e a preorder).

Still, if they added trophy support I suppose I’d *have* to :P

Would be nice if they also included Beyond Good and Evil…

Tuesday, August 10, 2010 at 1:34 AMWhats ironic about the Splinter Cell Collection going only to PS3 is that Conviction was exclusively released on 360 and PC. Something about that just doesn’t let me believe this…
