Probably like me, most who have downloaded it have already finished the original game and remaster before. We want to checkout and replay the game in it's remake form but we just didn't want to pay for the steep price it was selling for before.

raWfodog211d ago

I can see something similar happening to Dead Space (spike in player count) since it’s part of this month’s games (on essentials at least). I’ve played the original but I’m definitely going to check out the remake.

MDTunkown211d ago

Yeah 80 euro is just too much. If they had let owners of last of us remaster to get it for like 20, I would had bought in on day one

CRASHBASHUK211d ago

sad there more to PlayStation then the last of us re-remasted

DJ_Inversion211d ago

I still don't know why we needed this. Even less why we need Horizon Zero Dawn again instead of a new game.

MDTunkown211d ago

Cheap to remake/remaster for last of us part 1 they already had all the gameplay mechanics that they could take from part 2 and the first game is relative modern that not a lot of things need to change. So for example a lot of us want legend of dragoon but remake this game will cost a lot and a lot of gameplay will need to be changed to feel more modern + text change

MrBaskerville211d ago

It seems like Nixxes made the remake of Horizon. Maybe they don't have the manpower to do a game on their own? They are a pc porting studio afterall.

raWfodog211d ago (Edited 211d ago )

Guerilla Games is already working on the next Horizon game in the series. HZD Remake is being made by another developer.

New (and previous) games will be able to play a better version of the game if they want. Same with TLOU Pt 1.

Saw that Balatro got over 100000! Reviews on Steam. Crazy.

Only game from these three I care about is Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun since it seems to be a nice fps.

darthv723d ago

boltgun is pretty damn fun... I have it on my steamdeck and it is crazy good.

DefenderOfDoom23d ago

I bought Warhammer Boltgun for the PS4. Very fun retro style FPS !

Damn, I thought the Until Dawn Remake was going to be one. Not a month for me.

S2Killinit2d ago

Pretty good month for me though. I would say great.

Tacoboto2d ago

The developer of the remake has already been effectively shut down, too.

Yui_Suzumiya3d ago

Boltgun is so much fun. I own it on Steam, PS4 and Switch (Physical). Beaten it so many times that I could probably get through it in my sleep, lol.

As expected. Unless it's going to Xbox or Switch 2, we can stop hearing about these older games now? We can move on to just news about new games?

darthv7223d ago

....until the PS6 remake followed by the PS7 reboot

Christopher23d ago

Man, first year of PS6 is going to be 90% remasters. I'm going to hate it and likely hold off until new games actually get released that I can't play on my PS5.

Cacabunga23d ago

Yes I’m waiting for complete remaster…. On ps5

OtterX23d ago

...20 years later, "you haven't heard the last of us yet!" *releases The Last of Us Retro Collection*

cloganart23d ago

@Christopher

Oof, yeah. I don't think I'm picking up the PS6 until "Pro" comes out 😂

Cacabunga23d ago

I haven’t played Tlou1 since PS3 and i have the greatest memory of it

Notellin22d ago

I'm already dreading all the cross generation games and remasters we'll see with the next round of consoles.

LonDonE22d ago

lmao this is getting ridiculous but thing is if people keep buying them.. then why would they stop making them?
Peeps STOP BUYING this game.. that actually hurts me to say this as the last of us is high up on my greatest games of all times.. its one of the few games i played through start to finish 3/4 times back to back as i loved it so much. But sony need to stop, give us a Resistance 3 remaster, i would love and buy that.. such an underated series as was killzone.
Or give us infamous.. so many great series and titles i would gladly buy but they just want to keep giving us last of us.

I am done buying that game.. i would only buy part 2 remaster if they remade it and kept joel alive, or i am not interested. Hate last of us 2s story killing off joel.. the actual game is stunning and incredible, they improved so much in the gameplay department but i hate the story with a passion.

We can stop hearing about it when they stop re-releasing them I guess.

I reckon the ps6 version will be 8k 240 and I'll still not care.

I miss new games from nd

Inverno23d ago

And HBO just announced season 3 even tho LoU2 couldn't possibly be so long that it wouldn't be able to fit in 1 season. They're just milking it at this point.

darthv7223d ago

speaking of the HBO series... I felt they should have made part 1 across two seasons, then address part 2 in seasons 3 and 4. so now i have a feeling they rushed through part 1 in season 1 to make season 2 a cliff hanger with Joel's impending demise being the starting point to Season 3.

-Foxtrot23d ago

I love how they decided to rush, chop and change things for Season 1 to get through the game yet for TLOU Part II it’s like “we’re going to do multiple seasons and take our time”

Inverno23d ago

Okay after seeing that there's only 7 episodes I take it back. Though I think it's incredibly stupid not to have just made the season longer. Another season just to finish what could've just been a 13 episode season seems counterintuitive but aiight. I put that on HBO tho.

Neonridr23d ago

This will be the 4th time Sony sells us The Last of Us Part 1.. And the 2nd time on the PS5.

Knushwood Butt23d ago

They don't want Metroid Prime holding that record,

NotoriousWhiz22d ago

Strange, I thought the record went to Street Fighter 2.

FPS_D3TH23d ago

We are approaching Skyrim levels here

Profchaos23d ago

At this point we are at Skyrim in terms of frequency. Skyrim was one per generation. If you exclude VR Skyrim we've now exceeded it

Tlou 1 PS3, 1 PS4 2 ps5
Skyrim 1 ps360 2 PS4/x1/vr 1 ps5/sx

Tlou 4
Skyrim 4

Christopher23d ago

Not quite. Skyrim had:

PS3/360/PC
PS4/X1
VR
Switch
Skyrim Special Edition PC/PS4/X1
Skyrim Special Edition PS5/XSX

VersusDMC23d ago (Edited 23d ago )

Also add skyrim bundles like the one below and all the humble bundles since that's what everyone is doing here

https://www.xbox.com/en-CA/...

darthv7223d ago

@Chris, LoU is getting just as bad by milking the same user base. At least Skyrim was able to sell to a wider audience via different platforms.

Christopher23d ago

@darthv72: I don't know why you're telling me that. I only corrected on number of Skyrim re-releases/ports/etc. I didn't say anything else.

Profchaos23d ago

@christopher guess I forgot just how much was out I think the special editions are technically one release despite being cross platform though would the Alexa version count

Christopher23d ago

@Profchaos: I guess, but I'd consider it a separate release since it rolled them into one at a later date but definitely there is a PS5/XSX version with PS5/XSX supported updates specific to them.

Chevalier22d ago

"LoU is getting just as bad by milking the same user base"

Weird. Like 35% of PS5 owners are NEW to Playstation. Plus this is really for new fans from the TV series for season 2 of TLOU.

I recall the same idiotic comments when the 1st one was remade just before TLOU TV Series came out and it went on the be one of the best selling games that year.

So maybe get your FACTS straight. Unlike Skyrim getting literally releases in 3 generations and 10 releases.

I gotta figure RE4 is up there too

FPS_D3TH22d ago

No. Those are remakes. Not remasters

Neonridr22d ago

@FPS - we've had quite a few RE4 remasters, only 1 remake.

CrimsonWing6921d ago (Edited 21d ago )

@FPS_D3TH

It blows my mind how people do some mental gymnastics to try to cope with a game they like doing the same thing (technically more) they’re complaining about for another game.

RE4 - PS2, GC
RE4 w Motion Controls - Wii
Literally RE4 HD Remaster - Xbox 360, PS3
I’m assuming a port of RE HD - PS4, Xbox One
RE4 Remake - PS5, Xsex

1 Remake and the bunch are Remasters… how, I mean how—Y’know what, it doesn’t matter anymore…

P_Bomb23d ago

Store says I already own it. I guess it’s just a straight twin-pack. Looks like they added 4 maps to ‘No Return’.

VersusDMC23d ago

You don't need to buy this to get the maps, marlene and bill. It all got patched in to the game on the 3rd.

P_Bomb23d ago (Edited 23d ago )

Good to know. I’ve watched runs of ‘No Return’ but have yet to try it myself. Soon, soon 😉

Knushwood Butt23d ago

Yeah, No Return got a content update.
Three new trophies too.
