That's the opinion of Jurjen Katsman, founder of Nixxes Software, the developer behind the PC version of Human Revolution.
Katsman is the first to admit his bias, but he's also enthusiastic about listing the little details he feels make the PC version that bit superior
Nixxes Software may work on other remasters based on PlayStation first-party titles after Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered.
The dev just mentions that Horizon remaster is the first big PS project that they're (Nixxes as a studio) delivering after their past 5 PC port jobs ... nowhere the dude says that they're working on other remasters.
They have been working on a new game for some time now. I am not sure if it’s a new IP or not but they said they were working on a new game a long time ago
The PS3 exclusive Puppeteer would be amazing on PS5 running at 120 FPS with DualSense haptics! The game deserves more recognition, and its well worth playing if a person enjoys 2.5D platformers.
Bring ICO and SoTC to PC and PS5, it's stuck on PS3/2. Actually just bring every PS3 banger to modern systems, f all these recent releases getting remasters.
Nixxes' Remaster focus could set the stage to resurrect many obscure titles like the karma-centered, superpower-fueled sandbox of Infamous.
Infamous remaster? How about an Infamous re-Boot! This is one game that doesn't need a remaster, it needs either a proper equal of a reboot of the original. And since Sony is currently in development with Marvel, i can totally see them having guest marvel characters to appear in Cole's world.
I would prefer Warhawk or Starhawk ether or both will keep us fans happy for a looooooooong time
Warhawk would be awesome! So many good memories playing that game on PS3. They could do a massive 50v50 mode, battle royal with last Warhawk standing, classic 20v20 mode, so many options.
I'd rather infamous. Sonys got enough online bs in the pipeline. No need to add more.
@shinoff I disagree with you both of those games was extraordinarily fun to play just the satisfaction of transforming your plane into a bot and stomp a enemy then transform and fly off on Starhawk was a experience that hasn’t been replicated since.
The game was extremely valanced to the point you could go against a tank on foot and win with the ratchet or 1 shot a plane doing a massive attack with your tank. In Warhawk you could pick up half your team and fly them to a base and take it over but those are experiences you had to play to know how awesome those game was even YouTube videos don’t do justice to those game.
Anyways I’ll stop here or I’ll run out of words to post a wall text taking about those games
Here's the thing, infamous and *hawk are such different games and with different audiences that Sony could... do both at the same time? Nixxes doesn't need to be involved in the shooter (that would be new for them I think since they usually do SP games) but someone else could and Nixxes could share support with development/engine needs.

Ya know Christopher is right they are completly different games. Me personally I don't value online games I just don't care for them. Hell in another bubble I probably enjoy them. In this bubble nah I just prefer single player unless I'm playing Mario or Mario party with my girl and kids or something.
@shin of course I know Chris is right but the games have to be approved first before assignment to a studio I didn’t mean this studio in particular making those game I meant the approval process and Sony harder push on MMO games.
I’m just one of the millions of players that loved those game and a top 800 word wide ranked on Starhawk and proud owner of its platinum trophy
A remaster would allow people who don't have access to a ps3 to experience the game since there's so many stuck on the ps3 that are exclusive to the console and Sony refuses to invest in backwards compatibility
Who doesnt have access to a ps3? There were over 87m of them sold. They are cheap and easy to find. Just like wii and ps2.
@darthv72
Not everyone is willing to go out and buy a ps3 for a single game or a handful of games when they have a ps4 or a ps5. A port or remaster would actually help. Younger audiences who did not grow up with a ps3 would have exposure to these games that Sony has essentially left behind on the ps3 due to them not investing in backwards compatibility. If they would do backwards compatibility then we wouldn't need to shill out more money for the same games. Something I actually applaud microsoft for (the only thing they have done that's good).
Agree, and PS3 is getting long in the tooth, so failure rates will be going up. I had to send my slim in for repair years ago.
I had a couple extra dollars and came across I guy selling ps3s for 50. I bought all 4. Just felt it was a good deal. Now if I could find controllers. I swear I can't find any cheap controllers around me
You know what, now that I think about it.. yeah none of that makes any sense.
*either a proper equal of a reboot of the original. *
Damn, there needs to be an extension on the Edit feature.
"Either a proper sequel or a reboot of the original"
And people aren't with Cole interacting with cameos from Marvel? Especially with Sony making Spider Man and Wolverine?
Why exactly would that be a bad idea? Especially with the multiverse being a huge deal and all.
***Why exactly would that be a bad idea? Especially with the multiverse being a huge deal and all.***
There's enough Marvel. Let's not spread it everywhere and let other IPs be their own thing. Please.
Infamous 1-2 collection would be amazing on current generation. God of War 1-2 and PSP games also playable on PS5 Yes please. And last but not least MGS4
There are so many great games which are on PS3. We need them to be remastered and released for current generation.
I'd like a Killzone 2 Remaster.
Keep the visuals style as is ... just improve the LoD and the resolution
Now that COD is in Microsofts back pocket, it's time for Sony to start investing in it's own 1st party shooters. I loved Killzone - even Shadowfall. But Yeah Killzone 2 was the high point of the Franchise.
Yes. KZ2 was the high point of the franchise and a strong, solid and just bloody fantastic shooter! Had so much fun those days with the game.
Shadowfall was my first introduction into the series as the PS4 was my first Sony console. Maybe compared to the others it was not great (personally I don't know), but I had a blast playing it and found it quite enjoyable. I'd love a Trilogy Remaster though so I could go back and enjoy the original 3 for the first time (with a new coat of paint + updated controls)
Most def the highest point of the franchise, the music, gameplay and story was awesome
man id love a killzone 2 remaster, its one of my favorite games of all time, but who knows what shape that code in and where its at, prob wont happen under jim ryan though! you can keep your fingers crossed though and see what happens but GG is all about Horizon now
There is a lot of the PS3 era that I would love to see ported/remastered. But, unfortunately, they are probably not commercially viable and I have no idea who owns the rights currently. Stuff like Sire: Blood Curse, White Knight Chronicles, Tokyo Jungle, Folklore, etc.
Infamous on the other hand was never a series that I found good or interesting. Especially when compared with other contemporaries like Prototype. But, given how bare the subgenre is right now, I would dig a remaster.
Sony owns Siren. I can’t speak for the rest.
As for inFAMOUS vs Prototype, I feel the opposite. inFAMOUS mopped the floor with it, quality and gameplay. Just felt far more polished. That said, I enjoyed Prototype’s powers a little more.
Fair enough, I agree that the production values of inFamous were higher. But I found it to be a snore-fest.
...no meed. Sony could add ps3 support to the 5 and then people can play loads of games already available. No streaming required. Rpcs3 could be adapted to run on the 5... it would solve so many problems.
No need, because they instead could do these two other things that they have shown no interest in doing? Sure.
But then they couldnt charge you for remaster (even though I would love one for infamous) or charge you for PSN premium.
It would be even funnier if the series x gets rpcs3 support and can play the ps3 games while ps5 still cannot (not without streaming them)
Don't most people still have issues with rpcs3. It's not as stable as alot of emulators out there. From what I've read
prototype def was not on the same level as infamous far as gameplay or graphics
Infamous, Resistance, and killzine are so ripe for a remaster, I wish Sony would make it happen.
Meet the team at Nixxes! The industry-leading Dutch studio with more than 20 years of experience in game development and optimization
I didn't need him to tell me this. But it is good advice.
alright, no buy then. thanks for the heads up.
Good to see them concentrating on the pc version, other devs should as well.
Already waiting for my Augmented edition. This game is going to rock the market when it's out!
I hope that doesnt mean that the console versions suck.
