As a headsup, the Team ICO HD collection has been released for PS3 in Europe.
I couldn't resist buying it, as it contains the two most prominent examples which can be used in a "games are art" debate of the last generation, even though I've only read about ICO and only ever somebody else play SotC once (not counting it's prominent appearance in Reign over me, Adam Sandlers best tear jerking movie).
I was actually sceptical about the ourchase first, because they have next to no n ostalgic value for me, but gladly, that wasn't an issue.
Both games manage to create a really bleak and desperate atmosphere I've only seen in Limbo recently, both look really well in HD and the controls are tolerable.
So go out and buy it!
