Packed in every new copy of the game will be a voucher for two XMB Dynamic Themes, one for ICO and one for Shadow of the Colossus. In addition, on the disc itself will be a ton of exclusive video content from ICO, Shadow of the Colossus, and The Last Guardian that fans won\u2019t want to miss. We\u2019re busy finalizing the videos as we speak, and will have more details to share next month.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I am sure the videos are going to be interesting, but pre-order specials should include some nice, even if minor, trinkets.  At any rate, I am looking forward to play ICO in HD.  This was one of the many games that I missed the first time around, and have always been curious about the implementation; mostly because of the rabid, if niche following.<\/p>\n<div class=\"addtoany_share_save_container addtoany_content_bottom\"><div class=\"a2a_kit a2a_kit_size_ addtoany_list a2a_target\" id=\"wpa2a_1\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.addtoany.com\/share\" onclick=\"__gaTracker('send', 'event', 'outbound-article', 'https:\/\/www.addtoany.com\/share', '');\" class=\"a2a_dd addtoany_share_save\"><img src=\"http:\/\/www.calvertgames.com\/cgblog\/wp-content\/plugins\/add-to-any\/share_save_171_16.png\" width=\"171\" height=\"16\" alt=\"Share\"\/><\/a>\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\"><!--\nif(wpa2a)wpa2a.script_load();\n\/\/--><\/script>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It looks as if the HD version of ICO and Shadow of the Colossus now has a firm release date of September 27.
