The PS4 is still in its first year!
- Metroid was released over 3 years after NES launch
- Zelda, Kid Icarus, Mike Tyson's Punch Out were released over 4 years after NES launch
- Kirby was released nearly 10 years after NES launch

Again with the completely arbitrary reasons for why GTA V is ok but TLOU is not. So because GTA is a sandbox game, it would be a shame to not have the game be prettier, but because TLOU isn't, it's just too soon?
You've been reaching very far on your journey to downplay everything PS before, but this is really scraping the bottom of the barrel. Get it together man, you used to be creative, but this is just embarassing.
I don't know about paying $50 for the remaster, seeing as how I pre-ordered the original for $60, but... as is the case with most of my favorite games over the years, I do like to see updated versions utilizing the latest hardware.
I like PS2 remastered games, assuming players get a 16:9 aspect ratio, higher resolution, smoother frame rates, modest updates in visual resources and effects are appreciated, but not necessary. I prefer them to BC on the original PS3 units.
I've bought plenty of re-released favorites over the years and would like to see even more, if not all of my old favorites remastered even though I have all those old games and the hardware to play them on. In storage. I'd much rather play them on the console I currently have plugged in and I would much rather have only one or two consoles plugged in at a time.
So, that's the point. I get it, and eventually I'll get a copy of the TLOU remaster, but I'm in no rush.

Notice how I said "were new to consoles." |
Well Donkey Kong, Donkey Kong jr. and Mario Bros. werent new to consoles. They were on the Atari 2600 and several other consoles before the NES.
DerNebel said: I've been seeing comments like this going around quite alot pretty much since the reveal of said remaster, so I thought I'd just make it clear what the point of TLOU Re is.
If you doubt this sites' pre orders chart, which is understandable, then there are still other sources to look at. Amazon US bestsellers of June: Number 15 Amazon UK bestsellers of June: Number 4 Amazon DE bestsellers of June: Number 4 Amazon FR bestsellers of June: Number 15 Amazon IT hourly bestsellers: Number 5 Amazon SP hourly bestsellers: Number 1 There is clear demand for this and that demand for a PS4 version of TLOU has existed since or even before its release on PS3, the game is one of the best ever made, (most likely) not even half of the current PS4 owners have played it and it will sell damn well on PS4 for what it is. So how do people still refuse to understand the point of TLOU RE? Sony and ND are not putting out something that nobody asked for here. |
IMO, there is only slight demand for TLOU remastered because nothing else of high substance has been announced that is going to be released soon. There are a few games, but none to the quality standard of TLOU. Still the same game as the PS3 though.
Gotta figure out how to set these up lol.
Totally agree but I don't see how folks who bought it on the PS3 would buy it for the PS4. Same goes for GTAV as well, I have both on my PS3 & I don't plan on picking it up on the PS4 when I eventually get one.

None of those were "major" first part NES titles. I'm talking SMB,Zelda,Metroid,Kirby etc. I don't remember the SNES launching with a remake of SMB3. I don't remember PS1 launching with a remake of FF2. I don't recall the PS2 launching with a remake of Syphon Filter or MGS.
Things have changed. In the first calender year of the Wii-U, we had a Wind Waker port. In the first calender year of the PS4, we have TLOU. In the first calender year of the Xbone, we have Halo 1,2,3 and 4. It's so bad, twitter was a shit storm after E3 because nowadays, it's like, take an old game, shine it up and profit. Kids these days actually WANT remakes instead of original games. If you polled the 18-23 demograph (atleast the ones who know their games) and asked them if they'd like a MM HD remake with achievements or the new Zelda, MM would win by a landslide.
Maybe some of this has to do with the fact that they never played those games but those of us old enough to have had the good fortune, it's like, come on. The game industry is slowly turning in the movie industry with all these remakes.

There was no demand for a Wind Waker remaster. Nintendo still produced it. It sold over 1M including digital sales. It was pretty much the same game as well, with minor tweaks and a few additions (and omissions: Tingle Tuner, anyone?).
There's a demand for TLoU Remastered. I'm quite sure it will sell good enough despite it being released only a year after the original. And it will have tweaks too, as well as include all DLCs...

Donkey Kong and Mario Bros. was not major titles? The PS4, XB1 and WiiU didnt launch with any remakes either...
