Azzanation said: This is not something I want to hear. Its ok to remaster games when they need to be remastered however that's not what's happening. We are being resold the same games as last gens as simply cross overs. TLOU-RM and GOW3 are nothing more then 1080p/60frame versions. Those using the excuse of those gamers who have missed out is complete BS. Most gamers last gen ended up with both consoles and even if some didn't get the chance to play those games, they can also go out and buy a PS3 and the games at a much cheaper price. Its not like these consoles and games are obsolete. What I don't get is that most gamers have kept there PS3s because the PS4 isn't BC. So why would they want to buy the games again on PS4? And why should they invest to buy a expensive console when there's a much cheaper alternative in the PS3? The sad part is instead of these devs focusing on newer ideas and sequels, they are wasting there time and resources delivering games most of the world have already played. This is why BC is important. Even though many don't use it, it helps push devs into creating newer experiences. |
What a load of steaming bullshit.
Most people last gen ended up with both systems? In what world has that been the case?
They could go out and buy a PS3 or they just buy a PS4 and are set for the next couple years.
Who says that the people buying the remasters on PS4 are mainly people that owned them on PS3? Sony has said several times that a large number of people that own a PS4 never owned PS3. And people are buying a PS4 due to it being the better system and again for being set for the future.
The sad part is that you don't get how any of this works, these remasters are not made by their original studios aside from TLOU:R and from a financing sense they can actually help with creating new games as those remaster projects are simple and cheap ways to get a decent return on investment which can then be put into other projects.
And because of BC I guess all future remasters on X1 are now cancelled... oh wait.
Seriously you and half of the rest of this thread should just shut up about this topic cause you are either completely talking out of your asses or just trying to push another type of "Sony and the PS4 are so horrible"-agenda.
