I’m sick of Sony’s money-grabbing remasters that repackage old games with a resolution bump and expect long time fans to pay for it. That’s why I’m so glad Microsoft will be introducing The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion to a new generation, so they can see what quality gameplay really is. I can’t wait to go back. Xbox 🫡

S2Killinit24d ago

What a stupid comment. Nobody is forced to buy it. There are people who havent played the game and they now have a PS5. Why cant Sony update its SINGLE PLAYER games and sell it to people who want it? Get the fudge out of here with that BS.

@Magavody
I have to agree with s2kill here. And if MS had games like days gone then they should also get to remaster them for new generations to enjoy.

Then do not buy it. Your always complaining about cost

Knushwood Butt24d ago

I'll be getting this. It's only a few quid for me.
Not sure why but I bought the original game on disc and sold it, then played the digital game catalogue version on PS5, and this seems to qualify me for the discount version of the remaster. I'll take that!

VenomUK23d ago (Edited 23d ago )

@Ps5conehead You must have me confused with someone else as I'm not always complaining about costs.

@S2Killinit 'Why cant Sony update its SINGLE PLAYER games and sell it to people who want it?' I agree. I was ironically, attempting, to highlight the people who have been critical of Sony for its remasters last year yet are jumping through hoops at the prospect of the Oblivion remaster. I mean, I will either play or buy Oblivion. I've played a bit of Days Gone on PS4 and what I played I enjoyed, but will wait for a discount with this one.

Seeing the number of those who disagreed with my comment shows the stupidity of some people. I did you a favour of not clicking on the site for the answer, everyone hate clickbaits.

Either ways, I have zero interests in zombie games. I know this games is very popular on playstation. Even though it's a remastered, nothing going to prevent people from buying it.. Sony knew that

pwnmaster300025d ago

If you’re gonna remaster then make a sequel.

CrimsonWing6924d ago

I mean, that’s sort of why some of these Remasters exist. It’s a cheap way to get a quick buck and gauge interest in the IP for whether or not they’ll take a risk funding development for a sequel. If this doesn’t sell then that f*cks any chance for a sequel.

mkis00724d ago

If the remaster sells well enough it will force Sony's hand, even if they didn't want to make it before. This release proves they are at least open to the idea. If the remaster sells, say 10 million, across pc and ps5, they would HAVE to make a sequel; internal opinion be damned.

Killer2020UK24d ago

If you're gonna make toast then cook a banquet...

badz14924d ago

Let's hope we don't get another situation like Dead Space. Remastered, released, not sold well enough, canned forever! (ToT)

ReelBigMike24d ago

Bend Studio wanted to do a sequel, but Sony rejected their pitch. I loved this game and can't wait for the remaster so I'm hoping it can spark enough interest for one, but I'm not optimistic.

IRetrouk21d ago

Sony didn't reject it, the studio heads did.

leemo1924d ago

I hope so too, but knowing Sony they will f it up if they do make sequel, since both John Garvin and Jeff Ross gone. Sony can't help themselves with changing or adding dumb ideas with some of the sequels to their franchises. John Garvin and Jeff Ross comeback, only way the sequel will be good.

My second favorite game last gen but not buying because it’s just laziness at this point. We want new games and not same old things

S2Killinit24d ago

I dont think its aimed at you. There are many people who have PS5s and didnt play this on PS4. Nothing wrong with giving them a next gen update of a great game.

Well, get ready, then. In 10 years you most likely won't be playing games anymore.

MetroidFREAK2123d ago

In 10 years, Ill be 43 with multiple kids with my wife. I'm sure I'll still be gaming. I plan on showing them games I grew up with. Regardless, I bought the PS4 version of Days Gone a few weekends ago on disc (even found the revised 1.61 version) because they weren't releasing this physically. Every other remaster got one... why is this one digital exclusive? Makes no sense

autoglope24d ago

Amazing game,.. Really don't see the reason for remaster so soon,.. Looks and plays amazing as is,..

Cacabunga22d ago

Greed and laziness.. there you have it

Days Gone PS5 Is a 'Really Good Piece of Work', Say Tech Experts

Sammy writes: "Back when Days Gone Remastered was announced, many fans were squinting to see the differences between the excellent original PS4 version and its PS5 re-release.

But now with the game readily available – and our 8/10 review declaring it the “definitive version of a fan favourite” – we’re beginning to get some meaningful tech analysis.

And according to Digital Foundry, this is not just the bare-bones resolution upscale some had anticipated – “a lot of effort has gone into it”, according to the tech experts. "

First game sell well enough to warrant a sequel? Our received well enough?

Alos8813d ago

It sold well but reviewed only okay, which apparently wasn't enough for Sony.

Cacabunga13d ago

Sold well and received even better.. had a bad first month due to technical issues but ended up being one of the best games from last gen

Knightofelemia13d ago (Edited 13d ago )

That's the nature of the beast. If a game like a movie does not meet certain numbers then they write off the franchise. EA scrapped DS2 because the DS1 remake did not meet certain numbers. I was hoping the remaster of DG and the fact it also came to PC would convince Sony to green light a DG sequel.

PanicMechanic13d ago

Critic reviews were appalling. The worst reviewed game I’ve ever seen. By that I mean, poor quality journalism, dishonest writing and review scores which are out of touch with fan reception.

Cacabunga18d ago

Huge difference i must admit, but not sure i would notice without 2 screens next to each other.

Not getting this game still, i want a new game and im tired of remasters

Muigi18d ago (Edited 18d ago )

It’s $10 and there are plenty of games out there for you.

Flewid63818d ago

Then its not a huge difference?

Killer2020UK17d ago

Of course you wouldn't, nobody would. If you have never experienced the other, then you don't have the reference needed for comparison.

TheEroica17d ago

Sony getting ready to milk some more people on dumb products.... I can see the psvr1 and 2 owner salivating over days gone remaster. Lol. What a ruse song is pulling.

Knushwood Butt17d ago

How can Sony milk customers if it's such a 'dumb product'? If it's so dumb, nobody will buy it, and there's no milking.
Plus, there's nothing preventing people from getting a copy of the PS4 version.

Babadook717d ago

As a PSVR2 owner. Yup. If there’s a VR version I would be there day one.

Greg280117d ago

There are plenty of people who never had a chance to play this game, now they can with the remaster.

Don't understand why people who already played the game complain about a remaster. No one is forcing you to buy it. There are plenty of new games to play

MoonConquistador3d ago

And then there's a group of people who did play the game, thought it was awesome and would be happy giving it another play through.

Unfortunately I'm one who only got it on the PS5 instant game collection so no path for a 10 quid upgrade for me.

marioJP8717d ago

Huge difference where? Besides blue color filter and darker lighting?

Remastered.....

Tedakin18d ago

Sony is now remastering games with 71s on metacritic.

Bathyj18d ago

Like that's a judge of anything
This game got scored before it was released.

andy8518d ago

Days gone is 85+. It got heavily marked down at launch for bugs where as others get a free pass for that. It's a fantastic game.

MoonConquistador3d ago

One of my favourites actually, I thought it was fantastic from beginning to end.

Kosic17d ago

And it's not even a big overhaul remaster. It's list turning up the graphic level by one. It's quite embarrassing, as the original wasn't that bad. And the remaster isn't that noticeable

PanicMechanic17d ago

“And it's not even..”

Bugs bunny NO meme

TheEroica17d ago (Edited 17d ago )

Poorly remastering if images are to be believed.

Tapani17d ago

To me it was very close to The Last of Us Part I. It was that good quality.

PanicMechanic17d ago (Edited 17d ago )

Shut up. Best open world zombie game on the market

I spoiled myself by modding this game on my PC. Genuinely one of the best looking games I've ever seen. Whilst this remaster looks nice it just doesn't compare to that sadly. It shows the effort that these remasters could put in if they wanted

REDGUM18d ago

I so hope this game or DLC for those of us who own the original sells well.
Ive said it before, its an underrated game for sure & was unfairly judged upon release.
Please try this game if you haven't already.

For those who say 'i won't purchase digital only' you can pickup a hard copy for 5 bucks here in Australia, then add the DLC and you have a superb game for $20 or so.

Give it a shot, tell me I'm wrong After completing the game.

Game on gamers.

SPEAKxTHExTRUTH18d ago

It was full of bugs at release I wouldn’t call that being unfairly judged. If you want your game to score well then release it in a completed state. Now with that being said I think the game was pretty good.

Knushwood Butt18d ago

It really wasn't.
The worst I encountered was a horde spawning on top of me when exploring a cave.
Did you even play this at launch?

S2Killinit17d ago (Edited 17d ago )

It wasnt full of buggs, it was very playable. That was the excuse for the hit job at launch before people started to speak up about how great the game was.
