Will God of War Collection include subtitles options? ‘Cos it was unplayable for Deaf & Hard of hearing Gamers to follow story line of God & God 2.

If it doesn’t come with subtitles, will they provide a subtitles patch for this God of War Collection?

‘Cos I’d like to play these games as I was told that it was critically aclaimed by reviewers

I absolutely love the God Of War series…I am a huge fan and I already own them for PS2…but what I truly dislike is the path that Sony is taking. Here is my take and of course this is my own opinion NO ONE here has to like it.

[Rant]1st of all you take away my Backwards Compatibility(I really hate this BTW!!!) I owned a 1st gen 60gb PS3 that got the YLD!!! Now I have a 160gb PS3 NON-BC and I still own about 60 PS2 games.

I am extremely upset at the fact that you now are selling me games that I have in my collection already, just to play them on my ps3. What I foresee in the future is ps2 games being “Remastered” and sold to me AGAIN!!! I don’t see the point(Except to make MORE MONEY) just give me Backward Compatibility again and I have all the “Remastered” PS2 games I need.[/Rant]

So I just pause a scene in the Trailer and then go to God of War and play it, this is what I see:
Both GOW and GOW2 look amazing on their original versions, I have my ps2 plugged sing a component RGB cable, the best image you can get from a ps2, but there are some image tearing and the pixels looks fat, running the progressive scan makes the colors brighter and the images sharpen.
In the Trailer there are no pixels to be seen, the antialias shows A LOT if you compare images next to original PS2, the colors have another notch, this could be because the HDMI pixel perfect color conversion.
No image tearing I could see from the scenes in the trailer and everything looks sharp and clear.

The comparison allows me to say that this remastering looks almost like some nice looking games from the PSN, not a full HD PS3 game like Metal Gear or the next God of War, but if nice graphics you are looking and an upgrade from the PS2 that is what you will get.
On a side note, God of War is so good that playing it for this experiment makes me want to play both games all over again, but I will wait cause I will for sure buy this sweet collection.

The only thing that sucks about this is the wait…im refusing to play my ps2 copies since I want to have it a somewhat nostalgic and fresh experience when it comes out on ps3

Would it be possible to show some screens of GoW running in 480p on a PS2, GoW running on a backwards compatible PS3, and the new GoW Collection screens, for comparison?

To those who can’t see the quality difference between the old games and the HD version, your brain is probably extrapolating from the old version and you’re not really remembering what a 480p game looks like in visual quality.

While God of War 1 & 2 were visually stunning on the PS2, compared to the visuals for 3 they’re quite grainy and static.

I remember thinking that my new PS2 racing games didn’t look /that/ much better than those on my old N64, until I actually plugged it back in and realized what it actually looked like again.

However, my apologies to those with poor vision who are actually incapable of seeing the difference.

I own both games, play them on my ps3, and honestly, I couldn’t tell a difference between this and the old PS2 copies. Even after viewing it in HD. This may have made me change my mind about buying it.

But I’m definitely getting GOW3. March couldn’t look so far away.

From what I’m reading the Demo will have to DOWNLOADED, using the Voucher code inside the GOW Collection.

Still, considering it’s the E3 demo (meaning they’re not still working or tweaking it). I don’t see why it doesn’t make use of the Blu-ray limitless* storage space.
