HD Collections

The previous generation of home consoles have given us plenty of quality titles that can be played over and over again for years.  I'm not quite sure what to call the current flux of PS2/Xbox titles that have been given a high definition makeover.  The obvious business answer is a publisher's strategy to recoup on investments made three to five years ago.  You could also call it capitalizing on nostalgia.  Whatever it is, it's a win/win situation for the publisher and the potential buyer of the remade games.

Below is a list of HD collections/games:

Ico & Shadow of the Colossus Collection (2 games)
God of War Collection (2 games)
God of War: Origins Collection (2 games)
Prince of Persia Trilogy HD (3 games)
Splinter Cell Classics Trilogy (3 games)
The Sly Collection (3 games)
Tomb Raider Trilogy (3 games)
Metal Gear HD collection (3 games)
ZOE HD collection (2 games)
Resident Evil Collection (2 games)
Devils May Cry (3 games)
Silent Hill (3 games)
Monster Hunter 3 (1 game, PSP re-make)
Halo: Combat Evolved: 10th anniversary (1 game)
Beyond Good and Evil HD (1 game)
Ninja Gaiden Sigma (1 game)

I would like to suggest the following series/games to have HD equivalents

Jak and Daxter
Rachet and Clank
Final Fantasy X, X-2, and XII (PS2)
Final Fantasy Crisis Core and Type 0 (PSP)
Kingdom Hearts
Grand Theft Auto
Okami
Level 5 RPGs (Dark Cloud 2, Rogue Galaxy, and Dragon's Quest VIII)
Jade Empire
Halo 2
Fable
