I don't know whether it would make sense, it would definitely be cool, I would oppose that, I'm a PS3 version owner, who would of course love if I could save this money.

Thing is, nobody does that. See any GotY edition, there are no upgrade plans, see any cross-generational title, if you buy PS3 versions of those games you are not getting the PS4 version, see HD Remasters, I didn't get Tomb Raider Definitive Edition for 10$. 

The launch upgrade plan was a special occasion, where Sony wanted to give direct incentive for last gen owners to smoothly jump to the PS4, very limited thing. We realistically shouldn't expect Sony doing it for every, or even any bigger retail game.

well.. too lazy to really look up the gap in between the hd/remaster releases, but this game specifically atm is only 1 year old.  13 months when it releases.  There's a reason why it's $50 and not $60.  If it was released sometime in 2015-2016, then I could even see this remaster version selling for $30-$40 bucks.  As for your last comment about Sony wanting to give an incentive for last gen owners, it's the same thing that would apply here.  And like I said, it's not an every game occurance.  Basically 3rd party launch titles and this specific game... which fell into the transition year.  that's why i said, even if it was a "remastered" version, it's an HD port of a year old game. which makes much more sense to do an upgrade fee for this title than to expecting existing owners to pony up almost full retail. 

oh well.. still a month before release.. we'll see if Sony or ND can clarify this up..
