Thinking about picking one up again. Not seen it this low in a long time, figured I'd share. Always see this sell for ~20 everywhere.

EDIT:

It's up to 16.82 now.

Holding out until they reveal the inevitable HD collection with Ico

Maybe as soon as TGS.

I Hope, I didn't get to play either game :(

Shadow of the Colossus should be considered essential gaming for anyone interested in video games.

Rumor has it that it'll come out next summer, so far away...

If they do, will the sealed black label one I have be worth anything?

Probably not. Check out what happened to Marvel vs. Capcom 2 when it was released for current gen consoles :

Dropped from $110 to $29 and is still dropping.

Plenty of stuff to play from now until then

I was still able to get a decent value out of my black label SoTN, it probably varies per game...

I'd wait for the HD version.

The SoTN remake was considered slightly inferior to the original. /shrug

Picked up my copy used at BBV for 6.99. I'd already played and beaten it, but it's so neat.

Ugh, I wish all PS3s played PS2 games. I never had a PS2 so I missed a whole generation of games...

Bring on the HD re-release! And The Last Guardian!

I played some Shadow of the Colossus but I'm also waiting for the HD collection.

It's insane I saw a copy of this USED at gamestop for $39 today. Idjits.

Edit: Got Shadow mixed up with ICO. So no it's not $39. Ugh carry on. I'm the idjit.

couldnt beat it huh?

Interesting comment -- I tend to agree with you, though. I didn't hate SotC but I didn't particularly love it like critics did. Yes, the visuals were impressive and the whole process of clearing one boss after another held a certain charm, but the gameplay was at times frustrating (not knowing where to go), and that camera -- yikes -- it sometimes panned too far out I could barely even see myself on the screen.

An HD version might make it smoother but I'm not sure it'll be any prettier.

Personally, I hate all these HD remakes on the PS3. It just feels like another opportunity for developers to milk us on a game we already own. Yeah, yeah, I know -- you're probably thinking, "dude, just don't buy it then." And sure, I won't buy these. What ticks me off though is that these HD rehashes require development teams and that means more time spent re-making old games rather than allocating resources towards new ones.

Thanks for the hyperbole there. Not everyone need to play a game that's 90% horse riding simulator and 10% clunky action platformer with no story until the end.
