Give your reason as to why remasters are good/bad

They are amazing. We should upgrade to new consoles just to keep playing the same games.

Has a previously nintendo-only guy played all these games? Has an xbox 360 guy played GOW3? TLOU?

I find that point fairly silly. First of all, they are giving us the third game in the trilogy. If they were giving us all three, then I would start to understand that perspective. Either way, you are throwing players into the middle of a story, and logically it would seem that GOW4 would be a better entry point anyways as it will likely start a new story.

Also, you are just compounding the problems that many gamers have with the lack of Backwards compatibility and squeezing more money out of them in what feels like a very anti-consumer fashion.

Additionally, every exclusive game ever would suffer the same fate. If you want to play the game, get a console that can play the game. We as gamers shouldn't be treated like we have a one week attention span and an inability to buy anything that came out more than a month ago. If we really want the game, we can get it for another console. If not, well then I guess we didn't really want the game....

It just feels like padding in a schedule, providing old experiences on new consoles, where a lot of gamers are currently crying out for new experiences.
