PlayStation Collections announced by Sony, God of War and Infamous coming first
Some ridiculously good deals
Sony announced today that they will be bringing God of War and Infamous back to market in the form of giant collections of every game in the series including some unannounced extra content.
The new program is called PlayStation Collections and will feature God of War, Ratchet and Clank, and Infamous as its first installments. All of which will gather together multiple games in the series, HD-ified, and priced at $29.99 (see update). The God of War collection will feature all five God of War games thus far, including all three console games and both PSP games: Chains of Olympus and Ghost of Sparta.
The Infamous collection will combine the first two games in the series along with the standalone PSN title Festival of Blood. Both titles will sport additional content at a later date that has not been specified.
God of War and Infamous will launch alongside the previously announced Ratchet and Clank collection on August 28.
The official PlayStation Blog has a full list of the goods that will be included with each.
UPDATE: According to a source at the PS Blog, the actual price will be $39.99 and that "$29.99" was a typo. However, the original post has not yet been changed so we're not 100% sure yet. We will update the story if an official change is implemented.
