Look closely at this picture...



This was originally on Sucker Punch's website since I sent it to them, however, they ruined the detail so this is the original photo in full resolution.

If you look closely, the Sly 3 box has the words "PlayStation 3" and "High-Definition Edition". (And if you were wondering, yes, Bruce Oberg did see that on my Sly 3 box during my visit in 2006)

I truly believed that re-mastering PS2 games in HD would be a good idea at the time. Then the PS2 HD Upscale feature came (which isn't HD rendering)... But guess what, with the PS3 getting it's Backwards Compatibility scrapped, a new market of re-mastering PS2 games into PS3 Blu-ray Discs with HD graphics has become reality. God of War 1 and 2 are the first to start up this trend:

If this market gets hot, expect a lot more of this with the great franchises of PS2 past.
