Played it almost a year ago. Fantastic game, definitely made pretty good use out of the dual sense too, something this version will have none of. Which kinda makes the PS version the definitive version if you ask me.
With zero graphical updates, this is more lazy filler nobody was asking for. Such an amazing game to be shown so little love in a remastering. Now if they had even updated just the graphics to look maybe like say borderlands artstyle, we’d feel like this was really something big to look forward to, but instead this comes off to me as more uninspired filler content to say “we have something”.
Maybe some of us are just tired of hearing about features and no games. Features are niceties of a console usually enjoyed on top of best in class games, not in replacement of said bad ass new games. I don’t care about the UI if there’s not an actual gaming reason to turn on the system to play. That said, a good ol’ UI update is never a bad thing.
Nope, not there either…just indies and a new yet broken Halo game.
Nope,…not there. What gives? No games.
Money doesn’t always buy passion or quality. Just look at Halo:Infinite. Or look at the brand new AAAA ultra talented studio The Initiative, that already half the team quit. Money is not the only thing that matters. Having execs that actually have an eye for games and game talent goes just as far I’d say. Something Xbox has still not proved they have in their stable. Whoever thought crackdown3 should have released like it did was insane also.
Scouting the industry, supporting great projects early on, and getting timed exclusivity in exchange for financial support and aid is a lot different then buying the industry’s biggest PUBLISHERS(not just single development teams), then giving their products away for practically pennies on the dollar, conditioning Xbox fans not to pay for games at all. MS is subsidizing the industry into a cheap service, all about accessibility over quality. And still ZERO focus on getting out good AAA 1st pa...
Smh
You said it Loco. When life is kicking you in the shorts, Sony has always been there doing their damndest to give us something badass to experience. Hope you’re doing well bud
Play through on grounded mode. That stealth get mighty intense…
At $100-200 cheaper per unit, it would still be a great feet but not nearly as impressive a record if you consider the overall lifetime price of those consoles.
Only 2 new games to speak of since they launched the new gen, after launching a new console with no games and PlayStation is the one being stupid? The logic “this gen” is baffling.
Not at all. That’s why playstation is pivoting to PC as well. Now it’s not really about console exclusivity anymore to grow their brand and company. I see it more as competing ecosystems now. Who is the better overall publisher, and platform supporter? Which ecosystem has the better exclusives. Which I’d still argue Playstation by far. We’re still waiting on years and years of promises to realize from Xbox, Sony’s work on standard setting AAA games has consistently been on display there entir...
And Xbox loves starving you to death from high tier content while normalizing low entry price and accessibility options as the excuse not to complain or compete. 2 AAA’s cross plats all gen long and that’s it. And some are saying Infinite is dying quickly. If bargain bin pricing is what’s most important nowadays, bargain bin efforts are what your going to see normalized as well.
Killing it in every category except the one reason I bought their box for….AAA 1st party games I couldn’t experience elsewhere. That is where they have next to nothing. Most indies and simulators just aren’t for me, and deals are not what make a console good or not. Screw “best deals” and make the “best games”. That would benefit gamers the most.
Except where the games? Still coming, right….
Where were you when Super Nintendo and N64 games were $70. Stop with all the crying about $10 bucks. Some have paid that for a long time and didn’t mind it as long as the games were fully made and fun. At least amazing AAA games still get made and release under Jim Ryan. Not a bad game I can think of under Jim….On the other hand, where’s the Phil Spencer hatorade? All he gets us is more services, gas lighting, and practically no high tier games. Also, Phil hyped to no end and delivered that t...
There’s several Sony classics I’d pay to see a factory fresh coat of paint on. Bloodborne being top of my list, but games like Warhawk, Twisted Metal Balck, Resistance, Killzone, Heavenly Sword, Syphon Filter…I could go on. As long as they’re amazing games, and talent and thoughtfulness are poured into the new version, I can’t say I mind. Bluepoint’s Shadow of Colossus and Demon Souls remakes defined for me how Sony really feels about remakes and showed their delicate handling of old IPs. If ...
Folks like yourself keep calling it a remaster though and it’s not, It’s a remake of one of the best games ever released and it’s made and optimized specifically for next-gen hardware, thus the $70 price tag instead of $60. I don’t like the pricing myself and I might wait for a discount as well but I understand it. Whether you can support it at $70 is a personal choice, but the quality and talent are present to make it a super worth while experience. Demon Souls was a knock out of the park re...
Time flew really quickly for me, due to having a PS5 and not having to wait to play great games. Lots of games worth actually owning.
