Remastered Games: Where Is the Line?

JM:
"With the new generation of consoles finally settling in, it seems we can finally put down the games of the previous generation for new experiences. With the absence of backwards compatibility, and games for that matter, it seems developers want to polish their games up a bit and re-release them to make a few bucks. Is this good or bad for the gaming industry?"

Yeah to be honest I bought TLOU remastered just because I knew that multiplayer community would shift there. And in a week ND announced that the ps4 multiplayer spiked higher hits than did ps3 already. Plus everyone with a ps4 shouod have a mic. Had it not been for that, I would not have paid $50 just to have to re-ea4n old trophies again. I already had season pass on ps3 so nothing new was in ps4 version for me.

Now Sleeping Dogs is getting a remastered version -_-. Time that could have been spent making a sequel or spin-off. They could have just put Sleeping Dogs on PS Now if people wanted to play it on ps4. Why spend a budget on a remake when they could have made new games that we need in this drought?

I don't mind remastered games as long as it doesn't take from the development of other products.

I missed out on a lot of games last gen. Tlou (which was brilliant on PS4), GTA5, and sleeping dogs.

Rolling the Dice: Do Modern RPGs Miss the Point of Team-Based Play?

It seems it was long time ago. A bunch of friends spending hours on end playing RPG games, sitting around the table with the box of cold pizza. Excited about the story, listening to the Game Master, they were completely engaged in the worlds only visible to them and their imaginations.

The GM is the programmer, and in MMOs and co-ops, you can play with others. If you want to ONLY use your imagination for the visuals, read a book.

1) Hope they put it on disc this time.
2) Hope this is a positive for Neptune coming over as well.

Demons Souls5090d ago

If so, that's being developed & published by Idea Factory. Compile Heart has nothing to do with it (Thank God for that).

Godmars2905090d ago (Edited 5090d ago )

Thought Compile Heart was one of the companies lending characters.

Was also speaking in general as in regards to a US of Neptune. If these guys are offing a second game, NIS or Atlus, both of whom offer quirkier titles, will put that one out.

@kagon01:
My issue isn't - wholly - with the DL-only option, but the price. The first game should be $30. Maybe $40, and by that I mean $39.99. The only reason its $45 is the 360 disc version which has extras. Nevermind that by all rights its a PS2 game. Something that proabbly could have been done if the devs had the GOW2 engine or tools.

ClownBelt5090d ago

I approve of this god damn message.

Could have gotten my 60 bucks if they just put it on a disc.

Another exclusive damnn the ps3 keeps on rollin wit games awesome ;)

Jack-Pyro5090d ago

Is this a half decent SRPG, porn aside, cause if it is, i might just decide to go and buy it for the 360.

Anon73495090d ago

There's no porn just some sexual innuendos but that's it.

Also it is a great game by itself, maybe not graphically but everything else is top tier.

RedDevils5090d ago

so it had some kind of "top tier" porn story jk

ThanatosDMC5090d ago

Yup, it's a decent game. I just hate that a move has to go first before any attack options.
