But the obvious truth is that the value added is that the game is now playable on a platform which it previously wasn't playable on. As long as the ported platform is sufficiently distinct from the original platform (from PS2 to the portable PSP, or from the PS2 to the advanced interface of the Wii are good examples), the value can be quite substantial. |
I think it was that a lot of the ports didn't add much value even then. Monster Hunter was a game that had a lot of value as a portable. Xmen legends didn't really add much as a portable game.
A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.
Plus, just for the hell of it: Kelly Brook at the 2008 BAFTAs
