Many PS4 owners weren't PS3 owners. The game is a gem and now new players to the Playstation brand can enjoy it. I think that fact alone makes it worthwhile.


Sony says that a lot, but if you think based on a mathematical aproach it´s a little hard to belive its sense:

1: We have 80mi PS3 vs 8mi PS4.

2: TLOU sould more than 6mi on the PS3.

3: Sony once said that 1/3 of PS4 owners didn´t have a PS3.

So, right now there is about 2,5mi PS4 players that didn´t have the oportunity to play TLOU. Then using the PS3 attached rate would you say that 1/10 of PS4 owners are probally buying the Remastered version?

But then, wasn´t TLOU so good why those people didn´t buy a PS3 and enjoyed the game last year? 

If VGChartz is correct the bump em hardware sales was very small last year. 

Right now they are in the position to sell an extra 1milion this year and 2 or 3 milion lifetime.

And for the first few week I can bet any one that most of sales will be for games that played the original version.

PS: Why ND is so reserved in showing more of the game?

Sony actually said that 48% of current PS4 owners didn't own a PS3, believe that or not, fact is a very big percentage of PS4 owners haven't played TLOU.

Also are you really asking why not a lot of people bought a system that was about to have its successor released in a couple months just for one game?
