Remasters could prove franchise demand, says Mayles.
Zelda creator Shigeru Miyamoto shares some praise for Banjo-Kazooie and says it impacted Ocarina of Time in resurfaced quotes.
Sony's recent State of Play inspired this feature on video game remasters. How the industry is changing & how much they still benefit players. Mike @ Thumb Culture
At the rate in which we have been getting them, and the selections such as TLOU and Horizon and other similarly unnecessary remasters, no.
In terms of reintroducing classics and making them available again at a reasonable price where as previously they were locked behind ridiculously priced physical copies, yes.
agree with the Horizon but TLOU - I've never played it and the remaster it's quite impressive graphically so for someone who never played the original game it's a treat to enjoy such quality!
There a plenty of gamers who switch platforms and so I guess the remasters are meant for those
There is a new crop of gamers every generation that didn’t play the originals and some of us older games want remasters of older games to play them on current hardware. Overall I say yes it is good. Nobody is forced to buy them.
They can also gauge interest for older IP with remasters and it could lead to a new game in the series. Remasters aren’t for everyone but no game is anyway
Chances are their parents did... and may still have them. That's how I introduced my kids to gaming. They played what I had and worked their way up. They learn to appreciate them better that way.
I don't have an issue if they don't take away from developing new games. It's always nice to revisit a game you loved in the past with extra shine
remasters of older games absolutely.
but i dont see how a 4 year old game needs a ... Remaster. a upgrade update should do the trick
bjt i guess for newer players its a good option.
Rare has had an astonishing journey since being founded in 1985. But of the 125 titles released to date, which are the 7 best Rare games?
I'd like this, been a while since I played the original and I never played Tooie. But didn't people get irritated with the noises the characters make in Yooka Laylee? At least that's what I saw people complain about.. Only way to avoid that is to either lessen it or add actual voices I guess.
I would like to see that actually. Graphics and animation would need to be top notch though. Clearly use the art style from what Nintendo came up with.
Never played this, and I can't say I'm a fan but I rather see it reimagined like Rachet and Clank
