The God of War Collection, which is a re-mastering of the first two games in 720p for PS3, will be retailing this November 17th in the US. SCEA has also posted the Trophy listing.
Sony announce the Collection has ”gone gold!” It won’t be gracing Europe this year, but PS3 releases are region free so importers can prosper. It’ll also contain the God of War III demo.
”Fans can look forward to playing God of War and God of War II in stunning HD just a couple of weeks from now as the God of War Collection will officially be shipping to a retail store near you on NOVEMBER 17,” posted SCEA’s Anthony Caiazzo on the US PlayStation.Blog.
Some of the Trophy names carry with them ”stories and inside jokes” from the development of the first two God of War games, like the ‘Speed of Jason McDonald’.
”At the end of making God of War, the combat designers were doing speed runs of the game, and soon enough, friendly wagers started springing up around the office to see who could post the best time,” revealed God of War III Design Director, Todd Papy.
”Jason McDonald, currently a Sr. Combat Designer on God of War III, blew them all away. He still has, a couple God of War games later, the two dollars in winnings tapped proudly to his computer monitor.” God of War III releases next year. Check out the full Trophy list below.
