Sounds about right. Was enjoying the free version on PS+, but let's face it, the game looks terrible on last-gen platforms. At least on a 55" TV. I will pick this up for sure.

Metro:LL looked beautiful on PS3 & 360!

MegaMohsi3673d ago

If you didn't play it for pc then yes it did.

MrSwankSinatra3673d ago

PlayStation finally gets Metro 2033 if true.

SixtyNine3673d ago

that makes sense 'cause it would be easier to port the PC version of 2033 to PS4. :)

Some gamers object to next gen remakes, but I say the more the merrier.

You don't have to buy it.

anesthesique3673d ago

Although I am one of the gamers who object, this is one remake I'm picking up because I enjoyed the first Metro game alot but didn't get a chance to play Last Light.

That being said though, you're right, no one has to buy something they don't want to play. Thing is, I'd rather see the developers, the studios and the industry as a whole focusing their resources and minds on moving forward, innovate gaming instead of selling us the same things again and again. Thats why I'm against constant remakes and ports.

@anesthesique <<< Cool name btw :)

OT

I feel funny quoting myself but here's something I typed earlier...

'...but from a business point of view, they make tons more money to invest in new IP'

...and I'm sure no gamer wants another studio to close because of X Y Z. The games industry is becoming like the music business...If your game don't hit, you're out.

So if this is what they gotta do to survive closure or raise capital for new IP, I'll support (some of) that.

It's totally easy for us to objectify, since we aren't fronting the 10's of millions, sometimes 100 mil + to develop AAA games. This industry is risk based.

The alternative is even less games and the same old dry, stale IP year after year after year.

anesthesique3673d ago

@candy_mafia why thank you :)

To the point, its true that the past years the industry has become more cruel and tough on developers, with studios constanly closing down.

When the profits are being reinvested for future new IPs, and to offer a financial stability I agree its for a good cause.

All I'm saying is that its also a dangerous path that can "consume" greedy CEOs to mainly milk out remakes.

For example you'd think that after Halo 4, 343 would focus on shaping up themselves and delivering a good next gen Halo game. Instead, it looks like MS has pushed for a H2 remake, after the success that Halo Anniversary had.

I have a feeling we will see more of these, ports of last gen games to next gen. The Mass Effect trilogy remake is already on the works, the Last of Us, Halo 2, a couple of Final Fantasy games already, etc. If these are a success, why not do the same with the Uncharted and Gears of War trilogies?

I just hope the balance is kept between new, original IPs and the old good ones that do deserve a second playthrough.

Would be great! Didn't play any Metro Game.

The collectors edition should bundle the 2 novels with the games.

Ranking the Devil May Cry Series

VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "Upon finally finishing Devil May Cry 5 recently - after it spent several years on my “I’ll play that soon” list - I considered giving it a fittingly-named Late Look article. However, considering that this was indeed the final piece I was missing in the DMC puzzle, I decided to instead take this opportunity to take a look back at the entirety of this genre-defining series and rank the entries. What also made this a particularly tempting notion was that while most high-profile series have developed fairly evenly over time, with a few bumps on the road, the history of Devil May Cry has, at least in my eyes, been an absolute roller coaster, with everything from total disasters to action game gold."

First to last for me...3,4,5,1,2.

VersusDMC3h ago

Me leaving it out should be telling of my thoughts on it. Better than 2 as a DMC game.

Still a good game though.

Friendlygamer4h ago

3,1,4,5 to me, never played 2. 5 gameplay is amazing but level design was really disappointing to me, just a bunch of plain arenas, the story felt like a worse written rehash of the 3rd and the charater models looked weird ( specially the ladies ). Another problem with 5 was that there was not enough content for 3 charaters so I could never really familiarize with any of them

monkey6023h ago(Edited 3h ago)

2.
Dmc.
4.
5.
1.
3.

God DMC2 was an awful game.
And in case this isn't obvious it goes worst to best

Yui_Suzumiya1h ago

1 and DmC. The rest are unimportant.

DarXyde1h ago

Order changes depending on your focus. I tend to focus on gameplay/fun factor, so...

5, 3, 1, 4, 2.

I really didn't like 4 but commend Dante's weapon diversity. The retreading of old ground was pretty unacceptable to me.

But even then... Still more enjoyable than 2 for me

I heard great things and I am a fan of most Vanillaware games so I’m looking forward to it. Waiting for my kids to fall asleep and I’m good to go
