I'm glad a ps5 only version of tlou 1 was made and I wish sony would remake a ps5 only version of a lot of games from past generations that utilizes the power of the ps5.
I suspect a lot of people would love a PS5 only version of the entire series of Jak & Daxter games, I know I would. Give me a from the ground up PS5 Remake of the God of War trilogy and Ascension. An obvious Sony Japan game to redo is ICO, I'm sure that would be amazing redone for PS5.
Thing is, as far as I am concerned, more options are great. Those who didn't think the remake was needed have the option to stick with the PS4 version. Those like myself who wanted the remaster had an option to buy it.
I have to imagine that with original fans, new PS5 owners and now the hype surrounding the TV show, that remaster looks like a pretty shrewd move by ND.
@ silver: “ I wish sony would remake a ps5 only version of a lot of games from past generations that utilizes the power of the ps5.” My 5 nephews and I would love a PS5 only version of Starhawk or Warhawk we’re not picky even a sequel to ether would do for us 🥺🥹
Bullshit. They did it to maximize profit by releasing it along with the TV show. Otherwise IF they're really telling the truth then they're going to end up remaking Part 1 yet again as well as remaking Part 2 so those both look "contiguous" next to Part 3 whenever that comes out!
I think everyone here knows profits are the motivating factor behind all business, they are trying to tell you something you dont know already. A secondary factor from the artists’ perspective.
I respectfully doubt it. Naughty Dog wouldn't put hundreds of people through the paces of remastering a remastered game because Druckmann wanted our playthroughs to be visually contiguous. One wonders why they felt compelled to make this statement on today of all days, and not, you know, when they were marketing the PS5 re-release.
@Joker, you comment is nonsensical and only states the obvious. Sony has talked openly about working towards synergy between their different portfolios to maximize profitability. Yes Playstation should update the last of us 1, if they anticipated new interest in the game from those who knew nothing about it until the tv show was released. It's smart business and it shows off the ps5 platform well. Game sell of part 1 have increased dramatically since the hbo show came out.
Stop regurgitating corporate buzzwords. It makes you sound like a bot, or worse, a Sony plant. Who tf cares about synergy between their different portfolios to maximize profitability?
What's funny is if you compare side by side screenshots between 1 and 2 for those scenes in both, they don't match. Sure it's a lot closer than it was from the original, but I'm thinking, "they redid these scenes for 2. Reuse that for those in Part 1."
It was good to bring in a few extra bucks for those who haven't played the original. I recently played the the remastered like a month again, and it still holds up well.
Your disagreement does not make you correct. In fact you are, objectively, wrong about the graphics. New game play would have been nice though, at least the prone position stuff.
This is why I bought the game again. It way better looking than the PS4 remake. I get that some people don't care about graphics, though in actuality those people a very rare, but I do and I am happy with how it turned out.
lol. They did it because they were able to resell a game they already made. This was money talking, not them being worried about "how jarring it would be for the gamer to play the PS4 Pro version and then a PS5 version"
Even though it wasn't needed in all honesty, it is a big improvement. I still stand behind the fact this at most should of been a £20 upgrade fee for existing remaster owners. But the in game cut scenes and reworked facial animations etc add real emotion to already brilliant scenes.
For new players of The last of us it's an absolute no brainer, it's still to this day one of the best games ever made.
What I wanted was a prequel of Joel. Can't believe ND isn't smart enough to make such a game. Joel got millions of fans. It would be easy money. Top of the charts. The last of Us: dark side of Joel part 1
More like, capitalist enterprise re-releases game a 2nd time in order to make money off of people who have never heard about the game until the show was announced. Don't get it twisted, artistic vision is not why games get published.
It was because of the TV show and also the it was a lazy remake tbh. Because the AI and combat were NOT upgraded at all. It literally is the same vanilla TLOU PS3/PS4 combat and AI.
If this is true, why did they cast Bella as Ellie then - she's about as different looking as you can get. They could have just given her the same hair and it may have been similar, but nope - they made her look as different as they could from the source material.
I'm wondering if they'll drop a free DLC when the PC version launches, changing the models to match the cosplay TV show
Nah. It was obvly because of the tv show.
I'm cool with it. I'll also buy it when it hits the 30 mark or so. Still one of the greatest games I've played since the 80s. Definitely in top 10
Yeah, like that was never been a concern before :/
It was nice that they felt players should pay back to back prices on a remodel.
One of my favourite games ever, but i'll holding off till the PS5 version drops to a more reasonable price.
Bullshit. They did it to maximize profit by releasing it along with the TV show. Otherwise IF they're really telling the truth then they're going to end up remaking Part 1 yet again as well as remaking Part 2 so those both look "contiguous" next to Part 3 whenever that comes out!
