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.

Noooooppppeeee. So, so, so, so, so, so, much wrong with this. I don't care if other people have already pointed it out, you're getting it again.

1. GOW III R, sure that's largely just a 1080p/60fps port. But TLOU:R has better lighting, better textures, better AA, and uses the higher polygon models from the cutscenes during gameplay. The NDC will have the same upgrades as TLOU:R plus updated controls for Uncharted 1/2.

2. 40% of PS4 owners didn't own a PS3. Let me repeat that, 40% of PS4 owners, DID NOT OWN a PS3. Why would those people go buy a PS3 for only a couple of games when they can buy better versions of those games for less that will work on a console they already own?

3. The remasters aren't intended for people who have already played these games on the PS3. But, if you own a PS3 but didn't play one or some of these games, the present a chance to play better versions of them on newer hardware. For instance, I own a PS3 but never played the Uncharted games. So for me, the NDC is great because I can catch up on the series, with updated graphics and controls, and play the UC4 beta.

4. No they aren't. Very few remasters are actually done by the studio that made the origional game.
