Wow, big deal for the Wii U if you have some newer games to trade.

Xof4115d ago

Only "select titles," all of which are new games worth at least $30-40 used. So, obviously, it's not really as good of a deal as it sounds.

JonnyBigBoss4115d ago

That's a great deal if you want a console that makes you wait 2 years for good games.

Animavicion4115d ago

is actually at the end of 2013, so it would be like half year :p

PopRocks3594115d ago

I was gonna say, it's only been half a year and those good games come out during summer. Also what about Monster Hunter and Lego City?

Animavicion4115d ago

@PopRocks359 are good games, but they are not blockbuster releases.

PopRocks3594115d ago

Fair point lol. But by and large they are at least GOOD games. That's what matters most, or at least should IMO.

Animavicion4115d ago

@PopRocks359 I know, but if they are not good sales does not help much promote the newly released console.

Or sell 5 new games on eBay and get the wii u for $50-$100.

knifefight4115d ago

That's exactly what I was thinking. Way more money in selling things yourself, but I guess there's an appeal to the convenience.

What a great game this was. Man we could use some more of these...

darthv7210h ago

Does this game support cross progression? I still have not beaten the first (I got sidetracked with lots of other games) and Id like to pick up where I left off through this version.

Zeke6810h ago

Yes, if you mean PS4 to PS5 to PS5 Pro. Same save can be imported.

Zeke6810h ago

To clarify, I played it on PS3 OG version. Imported that save to my PS4 remaster, imported that one to the PS5 remake. Hope that makes it more clear. ;)

Zeke689h ago

@darth72 Oops sorry, my wife you told me the remake DID NOT support old saves. She said I restarted the game and usually she have a great memory. So sorry, it seems I was wrong about the remake! :(

CobraKai6h ago

Sick that your wife actually paid attention to your hobby.

CobraKai6h ago

Sad that this deep into PS5 and not one new ND game has been released.

The Last of Us Part 1 (Extra/Premium) - September 26
Blood Omen: Legacy of Kain (Premium) - TBA
Dino Crisis (Premium) - TBA

VersusDMC1d 10h ago

Hopefully i get Dino Crisis for free as i bought the original PS1 classic on the PS3(like Sony did with Legend of dragoon) and they don't lock it to the Premium subscription like RE1 Directors cut.

But if i have to buy it again and it's 4.99 or 9.99 i won't lose any sleep rebuying.

jznrpg2d ago (Edited 2d ago )

When they put old games on PS plus they usually have trophies these days. I’m hoping Blood Omen and Dino Crisis also get trophies that would be great

Puty1d 11h ago

Not necessarily. Only first party and handful of 3rd party titles from ps one era have trophies ... So many trophyless games in that bunch.

Scissorman1d 9h ago

We really need a full-blown Dino Crisis remake.

slayernz20h ago

This could them testing the waters! If it gets enough downloads/sales then maybe they will greenlight a remake?

Miraak82 1d 5h ago

I think I bought blood omen on ps3 , hopefully I'll get it for free . Even if I don't I'll still buy it again .. Huge fan of the whole series , hope the remasters do well and reignites the possibility of a new game in the series . I know they just released some graphic novels so hopefully there's more going on with the series . Blood Omen 2 is kind of the weak link in the series but Defiance is definitely a must for a remaster to close out SR 1+2 story. A new Blood Omen as a topdown action rpg in modern graphics and gameplay is my dream and man that opening soul reaver music still slaps till this day
