Is remastering a 1 year old overkill??

Hey I was never arguing with you in the first place bud ^^. You're welcome.

If you have played this already and can't afford the 60$ price tag, but still want to experience the game on next gen, then a rent is fine!

But if you haven't played the PS3 version and want the complete version with all DLC as well as improved graphical fidelity, paying for the 60$ version is right for you.

Never understood why people cared so much as to what others do with their own money, but hey, welcome to the internet.

I was answering the OP in my post. He's skeptical about the price tag so therefore he should just rent it.

I think OP is in the mindset of thinking 60$ is too much IF, and only if, you've played the game already. As you can see, he says "play a game again".

So, as I said, if you've already played this game and don't have the money to pay full price, a rent is fine. However if it will be your first experience, then paying the 60$ isn't all that bad because then you'll also have it in your game collection, unlike a rent where you have to send the game back.

Plus did I also mention TLOU has an outstanding multiplayer component? Won't be able to play that for too long with a rent =P

Eh, don't feel like going through the Gamefly discussion. $60 for a year old game just sounds like they're trying to squeeze some more money out. Besides, not everybody on PS4 has PS+ to enjoy the multiplayer.

They have included all the DLC which is worth of 15$ and worked for a year to upgrade visuals from cell architecture. They just did not port the game in 3 months or handed the port to some third party developer asking you to pay 60$. Port also taken care by the same team and started immediately after shipping the game.

 

EDIT: We can think this game just like GTA 5 for PC which has been delayed for a year. So, do you think asking a year old game GTA 5 to pay similar AAA price for PC game is good?
