Now that the new Zone of the Enders HD collection is out, how does it stack up against the older PS2 version. It's time to see the answers for yourself. If you're a fan of the original ZOE, then you should know what a marvel and hit the original Zone of the Enders, and it's sequel, Zone of the Enders: The Second Runner were back in the day. Konami games development has seen fit lately, especially this year to bring out HD reincarnations of older titles, like Silent Hill, Metal Gear, and now with the release of ZOE, now out on both the PS3 and Xbox360 formats respectively.
From observation, Konami has revamped the textures, making them sharper in the process, along with of course, the HD element addition. The sound has seen some improvement as well, giving the player a better surround mix, on top of the other improved sound effects as well. Just as in the original Zone of the Enders, you can expect the same type of control feel in the HD remake of it. There is one issue I'd like to point out as I did in another recent post, and that's the frame rate issue. It seems that Konami had originally promised a full fledged 60 frames per second for the new HD ZOE, but from what I understand, the Xbox360 gets an average fps of 39fps, while the PS3 version lags a bit behind at a slower 32fps. Now that might not be a total turn off for die hard ZOE fans, but for some it could very well be.
Still, Zone of the Enders HD collection is a fun ride for you mecha lovers alike, and after viewing a couple of videos below, you can make your observations and decide if you like what you see. I searched over YouTube and dug up some of the best, longest, and most recent videos for you to watch so you can see for yourself if this is going to be a must buy for your Christmas needs this year. Enjoy!
