I bought it because I didn't have a chance to finish the game on the ps3 and I'm loving it. But why do you care if developers do these remakes? If you don't like it, don't buy it. It's not like they will stop making new games.

1) Since "overrated" means "Other people like it and I don't", yes. From your perspective, it is.

2) Don't tell me what to buy, don't tell developers what to develop.

While I do believe that this remastered version of GTA is pretty much the same game that came out last year, there are LOTS of people that didn't buy the first game (myself included). Did those people miss out on anything. Probably, but only for a year. Now if we have a next gen console, we can finally buy the game. (At least to those who were patient anyways.)

Of course I still wouldn't buy that game even to this day because I find that game boring.



Generation 8 Predictions so far.....(as of 9/2013)

Console that will sell most: Nintendo Wii U

Who will sell more consoles between Microsoft/SONY: SONY

The only way to sell this games was by removing the backwards function from the consoles.

Hard to remove something that didn't exist in the first place...


I mean it was in the PS3 but not in the PS4, the same with xbox 360 and One

Keeping my 360 connected just for GTA was not worth it, so I'm glad they released it again.

Okay let's be honest, although that may be true, I guarentee over 80 percent of the people who bought this already had the normal versions on 360 and PS3, I know 4 friends who bought the rehash edition, and every single one of them owned the normal version.


So anecdotal it hurts, but what does it matter to you? Why does it upset you that people enjoy the ability to play the best selling and one of the highest rated games of the past generation on their new hardware? How can you not understand that if you are just after shelling out for a new system you might like to buy a game that is familiar to you and also will let you see in black and white what sort of hardware upgrades there are inside your new console just by comparing the 2 versions of the game?

Honestly tho, you need to not be upset by what other people are buying and enjoying, should just enjoy your own stuff!

GTA V just came out on the PS4 and Xbox One. It has already sold millions in the first week. All I can say, why? What human being would spend 60 dollars just for slightly better graphic effects on a first person mode that doesn't change the gameplay at all? Apparently millions, I guess.

Seriously, stop it game developers, stop rehashing games that you sold a year ago just so you can take advantage of people who oppsess over 1080p graphics. And more importantly, CONSUMERS, stop buying these rehashed games, it's the main reason they are staying.

What are your thoughts?

HAHAHA, jeez, how unwitting can you get? The game is the highest rated game of this generation, just because other developers can't compete with Remastered material doesn't make it Rockstars fault. How is it Rockstars fault that other games can't compare to the scope/breadth/story/gameplay of GTA? Tell the rest of the industry to step up. People just love to ignore facts and post ridiculous claims just because its a game they arent interested in. GTA Remastered takes full advantage of the PS4 with 30 new online missions, new animals, new cars, first person mode, 100 new songs, 1080p, 30 people online at one time.

The fact that you say slightly better graphics effects says you clearly have not played it or you are just flat out biased towards the "disease of the industry" GTA. I've played the 360 version and the PS4 version and the PS4 version looks WAAAAAY better due to 1080p, MUCH more foliage and vegetation (underseas looks efing amazing!) and the draw distance is just unbelievable. You can deny all the facts but there alot more to the Remaster than just 1080p and first person mode.

The funny thing is that people know what they are buying when they purchase GTA V, and over 3 million people bought it this week. For good reason this will be one of the biggest games to release this holiday season, its too bad you couldn't figure out on your own why that is.

So yes people, don't buy rehashed games, buy GTA V because you are getting a massive amount of content and a game that is still rated better than every game this generation.

THISSSSS X 100000

And it drove the PS3s cost up hurting its sales. While for the 360 it was only ever partical backwards compatibility.

ok, better without backwards then.

Yeah, the fact the series does this well makes me weep for humanity.


Why?  It deserves it more than COD does, then again who are we to decide what succeeds?

 

It has an engrossing story filled with tons of hilarious moments and intelligent social comentary.  Thank god it is doing well.  I APPLAUD humanity.

It's better than CoD, I'll give it that, but you give it way too much credit. I'm not impressed by the story. I don't think it's that funny. The social commentary is there, and it's intelligent at times, but nothing that hasn't been done before. Don't get me wrong, the game doesn't deserve to flop, but the sales for it and The Last of Us should be flipped.


I mean I somewhat agree with you there, but again it isn't up for us to decide who sells better.

-GTA is on 6 platforms instead of the 2 TLoU is on.

-GTA has much more widespread appeal and is from a proven franchise.

Don't kid yourself though TLoU is gonna make it to 10m.
