Following the announcement of Prince of Persia Trilogy HD remake, it seems like even third parties are jumping on the remake bandwagon. Confirmed or released collections/re-releases include:

God of War Collection
Sly Cooper Collection
Prince of Persia Trilogy HD
Team Ico Collection
Tomb Raider Collection
Splinter Cell Collection HD

So, what do you think of these re-releases, a brilliant way of bringing slightly old games back to life for a newer generation of gamers, or a quick and easy way to sucker people out of more money? Would you appreciate that they stop doing this, or are you happy for the trend to continue? If you could choose, what other remakes from the previous generation (or two) would you like to see making it's way onto HD.

I personally am quite enjoying the collections, 10 games over the 4 confirmed remakes, and i'd only ever played one of them previously, and that was only on a 3 day rental.

I think if I had to choose any games to be remade as a collection, it'd be the Insomniac Spyro trilogy (as mentioned in my recent Mini Ninjas review).

I really don't think it will happen. They have said no so many times, and it is unlikely to make them the same amount of money that a sequel will.

If anything they may relent and make a FF7-2. But with the Advent film(s) pretty much telling the story it's hard to see where they will go with that.

And to stay on topic: ......yeah..

Ico and SotC in HD? Yes please.
And stating the obvious but Final Fantasy VII. Eventually it's going to happen, you can only ignore the demand for so long.
