Its not simply an HD rerelease is why. How original can the 4th game in a series be? You do know you dont have to be their consumer if it makes you get that mad over paying for quality games.. 50 for a game is a better deal than 60.

Not everyone just slaps on a new coat of paint and calls their remake done.

Honesly though if you hate them that much over it just never support them again. Problem solved.

Better lighting or not put the cost of a single HD rerelease to double what every other publisher would release it as.  Most HD ports include two games, so $25 per game if you're curious about the double cost comment.  But yeah, there are your shitty ports like Silent Hill HD Collection or Jax and Daxter Vita, but then there are good ones like Devil May Cry HD or all the other Sony HD ports.

Square Enix is putting additional effort into their HD collection with better textures at some points(not just higher resolution,) better lighting, and including the international versions for both releases, so putting more work into the western releases through localization.  If you look at all the comparison pictures, it's quite obvious that this is no simple HD conversion.  What do you know, the collection still costs $40.  Glad Square Enix isn't pulling a Nintendo, otherwise we'd be paying $99.99 for this collection.

As for SMT4 being original, I meant it being a brand new game over being an HD rerelease.  It's also overpriced, but it's not a port.  Persona 4 the Golden was also a port, with a lot of extra content and a massive graphics overhaul in comparison to the original.  This one isn't $50 and there's a hell of a lot more detail put into this game.  The point is though, no matter how much developers worked on it, it's not a new game.  If Persona 4 the Golden was priced at $50 I'd have been bashing it as well.

Just to make sure, you realize that this isn't simply and HD re-release but Ninteno is overhauling the graphics of WW by adding new shaders, lighting, and textures right?
