#HD
Check out the first trailer, and additional information on what's going to be on the disc.
Final Fantasy X HD was one of the feathers in the cap of the PS Vita when it was announced, and then things went dark on the project for quite some time. Today, Square Enix unveiled the first trailer for the game, and confirmed that Final Fantasy X-2 is also getting the HD treatment. Unfortunately for PS Vita owners, this announcement isn’t all great news…
Available tomorrow for the PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360.
Hopefully you aren’t planning on buying this edition of the game just for Metal Gear again.
While Kojima Productions is best known for its work on the Metal Gear series, last generation they were able to sneak out a couple of other titles that took place in a war torn world dominated by mechs, known as Orbital Frames. Zone of the Enders HD Collection brings both of the PlayStation 2 titles in the series onto one disc for both the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. While these games look much better and remain entertaining, they suffer from intermittent frame rate issues, as well as an overall slower pace that diehard fans will immediately notice.
Available now on the PlayStation Store for the PlayStation 3.

This gorgeous remake deserves better controls.
Nights Into Dreams has unquestionably been treated with love in its transformation into HD. The Japanese exclusive PlayStation 2 version of the game has been upscaled and displayed in wide screen, making the once blocky presentation smooth and vibrant. Even the sprites were upgraded to 3D objects, providing some extra visual flair. Heck, Sega even included a trimmed version of Christmas Nights for good measure. However, the port suffers from the same botched controls found in that PlayStation 2 version of the game and the rough patches of the experience persist despite the loving upgrade.
Players can expect the title in early October alongside Sonic Adventure 2.
Sega revealed today their plans for releasing the HD upgrades to both Nights into Dreams and Sonic Adventure 2. Eager fans needn't wait much longer as both titles are planned for an early October release, with both coming to PSN on October 2 and XBLA on October 5. Both will be available at $9.99 (800 MSP) and both will offer experiences that extend the initial offering found on the Dreamcast/Saturn.
They just don't make 'em like they used to.
There's little more important when creating an HD remake than ensuring you've at least duplicated (even better, exceeded) the functionality and feel of the original title. Apparently Robomodo didn't get the memo when creating Tony Hawk's Pro Skater HD, which represents a remix of the first and second game in the series. The HD "upgrade" is noticeably clunkier and more cumbersome, not quite matching up to the extremely fluid titles on the PlayStation, N64, Dreamcast, and Xbox.
Coming this Winter to the PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360.
