Xbox 360 games are still in retail channel, that means developers can still make profit off of a sale.

Playstation 2 games are not..so its already a 2nd hand game by point of no pressed disc sales for developers.

The ps2 remasters made for the PS3 was development for the ps3 processor not the PS4.

Thus the game once again has to be recoded again, thus another license fee for Sony..you think a developer or publisher IP holder would allow the other publisher to do such without getting a license fee for their own software going to another platform? The PS4 is another platform, thus a licensed fee would in all likelihood be levied again for the copyright and or privileged IP holder.

Top it off, Sony would again have to recode the remaster that was made for the PS3 to now the PS4 anyway yet again..

And gamers think it should be free? Or that it does not cost Sony that much..lmao

Out of all the post here...this one here makes the most sense!
