cool lists! I hope that we won't see as many re-mastered versions next year, at least not of just 1 year old games. That's just... I don't like it. Give it a FEW years before releasing remastered versions of a game

TLoU has already sold ~3m on PS4 and GTAV will end the year with around 5m on PS4 alone. Even though you don't like there are clearly a LOT of people who do. I wouldn't mind it myself, especially for games I never played last gen (like Beyond)

What I don't like with it, is that it's more and more becoming a new standard. Releasing older games with new polish is all fine and dandy; OoT fits 3DS very well, MCC is great for X1 (even though they really fucked that shit up, it's kinda sad). The only reason for Sony and Rockstar to release TLOU and GTA5 is all about the money - that's my biggest complaint. I can certainly see the reasoning behind it, and I'm not saying that OoT and MCC was released just to please the fans, but it just feels like such a scam.

In that case you can say the only reason for anyone to release games is for money...

Both Sony and Rockstar gauged their fanbases and noticed a huge demand for their respective games on next gen. Many, probably most, of them never even got to play the original games so I don't see anything wrong with providing far superior versions on current generation of some of the best games last gen.
