So let me get this straight, you are sticking up for Sony remaking a 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 Reamaek 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.

I think The Last of Us Part 1 would have gone over better if it was Naughty Dog getting used to the new hardware to really knock it out of the park with their first new game the way the 2014 version was for the development of Uncharted 4 on the PS4.  Instead, it just led to another remaster of the 2nd game with no new game from the studio so much as announced 4 years into the generation.  That's ultimately the difference between the rerelease situation on Sony and Nintendo platforms.  Nintendo fans have every reason to believe Nintendo's rereleases are there to give development teams time to finish and perfect new games, while many Playstation fans feel their rereleases are taking the place of new games and are being worked on instead of new games.

The problem over on Naughty Dog was having a massive online TLoU game cancelled before even releasing, not those ports.

Even so, they must be about to announce another big game, Naughty Dog makes some of the very most technically impressive games in the industry, and it does take a lot of time. Zelda took 6 years between BotW and TotK even and the main world is the same and lots of assets were reused.

I think Nintendo can release games quickier because they also have smaller scope games and less capable hardware, and Sony should start making more games like Astro Bot as well, it may be getting out of hand, already did based on money investment and is may also based on time investment.
