Sony’s Shuhei Yoshida has tweeted an image of ICO running on the PS Vita. I actually forgot the fact that they had announced the functionality at E3 this year, and the games that will support it are God of War 1, 2, ICO, SOTC, so be prepared to play these amazing games on your Vita soon.

Yes, soon, because Yoshida also revealed that a patch is incoming with no ETA.

“Sorry to tease you, I was play testing ICO HD Remote Play on PS Vita. We are almost ready with a patch. Beautiful on OLED. More info soon,” he tweeted.

Also you can check out the off screen image of ICO running on the PS Vita above. You know what this means? A new firmware is on the horizon or if we are lucky, a small patch will suffice but that’s not how Sony rolls.

Fumito Ueda, Lead Designer of Team Ico, creators of masterpieces such as Ico and Shadow of the Colossus, and the upcoming The Last Guardian, has said that both his games in 3D look ‘overwhelming.’

Just  HD in the upcoming re-release of both his aforementioned games “brings a lot of life” to them, according to him. In an interview with the EU PlayStation Blog, he said that the 3D visuals add “even more ‘juice'” to the games.

“I’d first like to clarify that 3D is not essential to enjoy these experience – the HD element in itself brings a lot of life to the games. However, 3D will bring even more,” he said. “Both ICO and Shadow of the Colossus were designed with a huge depth of field in mind, demonstrated through the vast landscapes. Although 3D technology wasn’t at the point that it is now, it was certainly something we considered. Now that the technology allows it, it gives the product even more ‘juice’ so to speak.”

“I’ve already experienced this throughout the trial build and was overwhelmed with the results. That’s how much the 3D element brings to the title,” he concluded.

Wow. I’m sold. These games were already very good, not they just look even better.

Walmart rocks. Those guys just ousted MAG 2 on their website. And now, they have also listed a Team Ico Collection for the PS3, which include the very successful PS2 titles, Ico and Shadow of the Colossus. It was inevitable, but still, it comes as a surprise. And guess what? Walmart is even taking pre-orders for it. Strange, it’s not even officially announced yet. The best thing? It’s just $40.

The game will be released on 4/1/2011 according to the listing. I just hope the guys at Walmart don’t know how to joke. This better be real.

Maybe Sony might officially announce this game at TGS this year. They have already said they are “very, very aware” of the demand for a collection. Let’s keep our fingers crossed.
