Report: Prince of Persia, Mortal Kombat HD box art revealed; several HD collections incoming

by Alexander Sliwinski on Sep 27th 2010 3:45PM

French site Jeux Video has obtained what is believed to be box art of the unannounced Prince of Persia Trilogy and Mortal Kombat Kollection. Furthermore, it also reportedly has release date information for Splinter Cell Trilogy, Rayman Trilogy and Tom Clancy's Trilogy (Ghost Recon, Splinter Cell and Rainbow Six); all for PS3. According to the site's retail source, Mortal Kombat has an alleged launch date of November 18, while the rest are dated November 4.

Previously, the Prince of Persia and Splinter Cell trilogy packs popped up on Amazon France and a British retail site with different release dates. If this keeps up, can we just spare the publishers the effort of not announcing these bundles by supposing every major series will be HD-ified?

ive never played a single Prince of Persia game. (was never fortunate as a kid to own a PlayStation, only Nintendo in my house) i used to be able to say the same about god of war. i loved the hd remake ALOT and it made me miss how long games used to be back then :-/ anyways!? is the PoP box worth it?

@PubeLess Yes.

Why didn't you just play them on GameCube though?

@PubeLess DIdn't have a GC? All 3 PoP were on there and actually superior to the PS2 versions.

From what I played of Sands of Time, this set will be worth it.

Especially if they are just $40 for the 3. MMM PoP in widescreen and HD.

@PubeLess

Short answer: yes.

Long answer: YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES.

@PubeLess def def get it!! its so worth it for all 3 , it should be alot of playing time for you !

@SkyMasterson what does the MMM stand for?

@PubeLess

Uh, err, Prince of Persia was also on the SNES. Not all of them were on the Playstation.

@PubeLess

It's worth it to play Sands of Time.

Skip the other two.

Splinter Cell trilogy would be very nice. Never had the chance to play them on the PS2, and all three games on one disc would be great!

@Nintari

And by bringing them to the PS3 I'm sure they'll fix the issues that plagued the PS2 ones.

@LosEndos

It would be very nice, indeed. The only thing I don't get is why they're releasing a Splinter Cell trilogy pack AND a Tom Clancy trilogy pack with Splinter Cell in it. Unless they got the information wrong, it doesn't make much sense to me. Besides, IMO, all Rainbow Six games before number 3 and the Ghost Recon series pre-Advanced Warfighter were kind of lame.

I'll gladly purchase a Rayman and Prince of Persia set.

YESSS!!! YESSS!!!!

ZOMG. My tenderloins just exploded.

@CrimsonRyan

Goes "Zoidberg" hysterical:

Whoop whoop whoop whoop whoop whoop whoop whoop whoop whoop

Microsoft needs to get on board and HD-ify Halo 1 & 2.

@neftones

I would definitely love to see a remake of Halo 1 & 2 with the Reach engine. But sadly, I doubt that it will happen :/

@Prboi It has too!

Plus 343 industries is in charge of Halo now, so they could just upgrade the Halo to true widescreen and HD and I would be sold. I started playing Halo 1 after Reach and it still holds up so well.

also redo the sound and whatnot.

@neftones

I'd actually rather them not, at least, not yet.

With Bungie officially (supposedly) done with the series there's little chance we'll get a next-gen remake (as in Xbox 720), but I'd still rather them wait out this generation and release them in like 2012 as a launch game for the next Xbox.

@sonicspike41

I'd rather they release Halo 4 as the launch title and give us HD-ififed 1 & 2 to hold us over until then.

Buy Halo on the pc.

Crank the resolution up.

HD done.

Play the PC version... solved.

@Drakkenfyre

PC version isn't going to give me Achievements, nor will it be played on my home theater system. So, nothing is "done" or "solved" that way guys.

@Drakkenfyre

The PC version is awful, since the FOV is completely screwed up on higher resolutions. In fact, it needed a hack to fix it, but it's now broken after the last update. Halo 2 is fine though.

hmm... I'd love a Jax n Daxter collection, I never played the series for myself

@Solace J&D and R&C. I'd be shocked if they didn't make both seeing as they're giving Sly the update, and the Jak & Ratchet games are the more popular of the PS2 era mascots.

@Solace

Great series! I would definitely purchase them again in HD.

@Epoque
I'd gladly buy the R&C series like this. I have all 3 ps3 releases (I got QfB on disc from europe) and I'd love to go back and play the older ones but I want trophieeeeessss!!!(whined like cartman would say mooooom)

@Epoque
Jak & Daxter deserve a remake much more than Sly Cooper does, at least the J&D games were actually fun.

My body is ready

@(Unverified) do you have any gum ?

How difficult is it to make a re-release collection with box art that DOESN'T look like dog shit?

@littletmart Yea, but they have to do it so the masses know how many and which games they are getting.

@littletmart

Very, apparently.

@littletmart

While I'd agree that that MK box art isn't that great, I actually think the PoP one looks good.

@littletmart
You should consider becoming a graphic designer

I hope these collections are coming to the 360. I'd love to play Sands of Time again and I definitely want that Mortal Kombat collection...I mean kollection.

Prince Of Persia, Splinter Cell, Rayman and Tom Clancy collections. Curse you Ubisoft

PS3: It only does HD remakes

@A Sandwich

It only does everything.

@A Sandwich and i love it

@A Sandwich
I love it as well. Keep em coming Sony!

Buying SOtC and Ico day 1.

@A Sandwich
Oh, don't get me wrong, I love it too.

@A Sandwich

I like HD ports, but remakes are overrated. If they're going to spend that much time and effort remaking a game that's already excellent, then just make a new game instead. I would like to see the game updated to widescreen resolutions with achievements such, plus a PC version, too, but i don't really care to see them remake the game.

@DangerMouse001

Nice. I just did a reply fail. My day's fulfilled.

PS3: It only does @A Sandwich

I find the Rayman Trilogy to be very tempting.

I hope these get announced soon! I'm so tired of this being so secretive. I mean, come on. It's been leaked so announce them already.

I'm stoked about MK. I can't wait for this. I've been itching to play UMK3 for a long time. The only reason I didn't buy it from XBLA is cause the 360 controller D-pad sucks. I've never played the old PoPs, Splinter Cells, or Rainbow Sixs so bring em on.

I still don't like this trend. PS2 games are good since its not a huge leap but if they start touching NES and SNES i'm gonna be disappointed.

I'm also starting to think that Sony is gonna get alot of hate because this means they have little to no incentive to release a PS2 BC PS3 anymore but i like how they added 3D so when i do get a 3DTV i will be able to have a decent library of games to start off with

@PR0F3TA

lol why would they ever add PS2 BC again?

if BC meant so much to all of those complaining about it being removed they should have bought a 60 or 20 GB Ps3 at launch.

Better yet BUY a PS2

@PR0F3TA

Man give it up because Sony stop caring about BC PS3s a long time ago.
