In a recent survey being conducted by PlayStation.com, Sony wants to know what the general public desires to be included in the collectors edition of God of War III. Interestingly, GoW I+II were listed as being included on a separate blue ray disc, theoretically bypassing the current PS3’s backwards compatibility faults (as phenomenal as these titles are, its still only two).
Earlier we reported that Sony is interested in what you have to say, but now they’re telling you not to get your hopes up. They have just added “It is simply a marketing survey. The goal of it is to do focus group testing. If that was the number one requested thing, that would be something they would need to see if that was most technically feasible.”
Other collectibles available to choose from included a key-chain, artwork, cinematics from previous games, or a comic book/graphic novel, all worthy of collectibility. However, having the first two GoWs available on the PS3 would be wonderful, and bolster the shaky library that Sony has been having trouble creating. Not to mention, to be able to play the original two installments in a possible 1080i or 1080p video output setting? Drool.

They almost got my extra $30 with that. Oh well, I already own them anyway.
Good idea by Sony, IMO.
