So they can start quickly on a PS4 port, right? RIGHT?

Didn't they already say no to this?
|
I don't know. I don't see why they shouldn't do it. If not in the near future maybe in a few years.
|
Straight-up ports after only one year may be beneficial for the business but may hurt the brand. If they want to remake the game later then sure, but I don't think that mere modest updates are befitting of a Naughty Dog game.

Of course it will not just be upscaled to 180p but also newer and sharper textures added. I think it would be a great title for the early PS4 lineup for people who didn't own a PS3 or haven't yet tried it. I would buy it instantly since I only played through once when I rented it for 3 days.
A PS4 version would still be a great game, just without the eye cancer from last gen.

Is it that bad? The PS3 may be more than 7 years old but the graphics of The Last of Us are remarkable. I always thought that PS3 couldn't quite create realistic-looking charcters but Joel and Ellie almost fooled me sometimes. I would rather have it created ground-up for the PS4 - something that would be considered impressive for the system.
I don't understand why people let the fact that a game is not running on the most powerful and up-to-date hardware substantially limit their enjoyment of a game. If you do that, you're only limiting yourself.

It is limiting my enjoyment because I know how it COULD look. 720p with muddy textures and no AA is not comforting my eyes. Sure it is great on the PS3 but it could be much greaterer on the PS4.
|
It would only be much better if it were rebuilt almost from the ground up, using the power of the hardware instead of a quick port. Every muliplat looks better on the PS4, but the difference doesn't nearly reflect the leap in technical capability. Naughty Dog cares a lot about the public perception of their studio and their IPs, and a port of The Last of Us after only one year could be detrimental to them in the long-term.
And the existence of the PS4 doen't mean the PS3 should be thrown in the trash. It's a great system and that's why developers haven't dropped support yet. If people really didn't care about the PS3 anymore, then games and consoles wouldn't still be selling and PS4 demand would be even higher than it is now.
