It's a Game of the Year Edition with updates to compliment the PS4, and it's coming out a year after the original. I think I saw someone earlier in the thread say that people's beef with the game is that it's called "Remastered" instead of "Game of the Year". It's only "Remastered" because it's on the PS4, but other than that, for all intents and purposes, it is "TLOU: GOTY Edition". Do you try this hard to undermine any other GOTY edition of a game? Skyrim? Borderlands? LBP? Batman? Gears 2? All those games have re-releases, a year after the original came out, packed with all the DLC, and sold at a reduced price from standard MSRP. It happens pretty much every year with the biggest games from the prior year. But now a year is too soon...and it being too soon is common knowledge?
I guess instead of:
*Gears2GOTY*LBPGOTY*SkyrimGOTY*
Those respective studios should have had completely new games done, because to release such things only a year after the original? It's common knowledge that it's "too soon"

You think I'm suportive of those examples?

From that reaction, I'd guess not, then. So that means you either A. don't like GOTY versions at all or B. you'd like them to come out much later than the original release. Well, non-annual franchises (sports, COD, etc) are still on 2-3 year dev cycles. So would you prefer the GOTY version to come out...when the sequel comes out, and eat into its sales? Seems foolish. And "Game of the Year" denotes, well...Game of the Year. You can't have a "Game of the Year" edition in 2016 when you came out in 2013. Some game in 2015 was GOTY.
