Sony keeps remastering games no one asked for and leaving IPs people want on the shelf. How long have people begged for Bloodborne? Xenoblade Chronicles X, like Bloodborne, has been asked for years. Unlike Sony, Nintendo finally gave people that they wanted. You know something is wrong when you can release a The Last of Us 1 Trilogy.

TLoU is by far more impactfull than Xenoblade X, it's also older, even the remaster is older than XCX. The TLoU Remake is also vastly more updated compared to either the original or the remaster than this definitive version is for the original Wii U game. Not a good choice of example I would say.

I've played TLoU on PS3 and I never felt like getting either the remaster or the remake, the same for Horizon Zero Dawn, but that would very likely be the same if I had already played XCX. Also, the original Xenoblade Chronicles also has released a trilogy of the same game... Wii, 3DS and Switch. So we can clearly see there is also something wrong with Xenoblade Chronicles... right? No.

I'm happy to be able to have all 4 XC games on the Switch, but it's very clear the treatment is not the same based on reception.

So let me get this straight, you are sticking up for Sony remaking games that people can already pop into their PS5s and play? There is no excuse for the TLOU remake. The original version of the game couldn't be played on PS4, so a remaster was understandable. The Remake though? No such excuse. Dropping 3 versions of the same game in 9 years is indefensible. I can play Horizon Zero Dawn, on my PS5, at 60fps right now. No need for a remaster. How many PS3 games are Sony sitting on that CANNOT be played on PS5. I can't pop my XCX disc into my Switch. My HZD works just fine. Hell, they can't even drop a patch for Bloodborne when a fan hacked the game to run at 60fps on PS4 Pro.
