There's been quite a lot of talk about backwards compatibility and remasters for the PS5. And while there are plenty of PS4 titles that could benefit from improved visuals and DualSense functionality, several PS3 titles deserve to be brought into the new generation as well. Let's take a look at 15 PS3 titles that need to be remastered for the PS5.

  1. Killzone 2
  2. Metal Gear Solid 4
  3. Ratchet & Clank Future Collection
  4. Resistance Trilogy
  5. inFAMOUS 1 & 2
  6. MotorStorm Collection
  7. Heavenly Sword
  8. MAG
  9. Puppeteer
  10. Siren: Blood Course
  11. Twisted Metal (2012)
  12. Warhawk
  13. Starhawk
  14. Tales of Xillia 1 & 2
  15. LittleBigPlanet 1 & 2

Count me in for any MGS remake.
GTA 4 my favourite GTA too.

And Dark Souls being a top 10 game of mine could get the Demon Souls treatment for sure.

Mass Effect trilogy could of done with a simple Remaster this gen... You had one Job EA and you fucked it up.

And EA went out of there way and made a comment like “We make new games not remasters on our older ones.....” Like they are heroes or something. Your new games suck... And you just refresh games like Fifa. Please remaster your old ones you poop company

Thanks!

Definitely agree with Resistance and Killzone. Warhawk would also be so great.

MGS4, I'd only bother if they included MGO. The rest I'm not too fussed about.

So many good ones here but Tales of Xillia is odd as it's the only non-Sony game on this list outside of MGS4 lol.

I really don't think we need remasteres of LBP 1 & 2. Puppeteer desperately needs one. It's a crime that Sony stuck that on PS3 and gave us Knack on PS4 instead. I would love to see Resistance, Infamous, and Motorstorm collections brought back along with MGS4 and KZ2. Twisted Metal can get forgotten about as it's a shame what they did with that game.

First off, they pretty much listed almost every single first party game. Here’s the TL; DR list (and it’s more than 13, they put multiple titles under one number, and they didn’t put them in any order):

1. Killzone 2
2. Metal Gear Solid 4
3. Ratchet and Clank Future Saga
4. Resistance Trilogy
5. Infamous 1 & 2
6. Motorstorm Collection
7. Heavenly Sword
8. MAG
9. Puppeteer
10. Siren: Blood Curse
11. Twisted Metal
12. Warhawk
13. Star hawk
14. Tales of Xillia 1 & 2
15 LittleBigPlanet 1 & 2

Most of those games are fine. I agree with MGS4, Heavenly Sword, a couple of others.

I’d focus more on games that were just too ambitious for the hardware. A Lair remaster could prove that it was a good game.

Still wishing for the Saints Row 1 & 2 remasters.

Great list. Really happy to see Heavenly Sword on there.

Only issue is the first one on the list should be Vanquish remake. Hell yes.

Or maybe add backwards compatibility with improved resolution and framerate, so everyone can enjoy their favorite games without having to buy them again

How about this guy as your new avatar?

If we're talking about just a generic remaster with upscaled graphics, I think that's a terrible list of games. Many of them have archaic gameplay mechanics that are not going to play well in the new gen.

if kojipro still at konami, we probably already get MGS4 remastered. before there rumors that the team want to port the game on pc. but then..shit happened, kojima left, and the rest is history.

if it never happened, we probably even already get MGR2.

Siren Blood Curse was already a remake of the first game. We need another NEW Siren game not another remaster of a Remake lol.
 

Evangelion Unit-01

Master Chief
Surprised they never did MGS1 and MGS4 the way they did MGS 2 and MGS 3.

Most of the PS3 games I would want to play made it to this gen in some form or fashion (port or 360 BC) but there is still the occasional JRPG I'll find that wasn't available on 360 and never got a PS4 port.
 
Don't forget the Jak and Dexter and Sly Cooper Collection, could also see a Motorstorm Collection but that was ahead of its time visually so it likely wouldn't even be worth it.

And White Knight Chronicles could use a full on remake.

We need remasters/remakes of Batman: Arkham Origins, Killzone 2, Grand Theft Auto IV, Max Payne 3, Metal Gear Solid 4 and Motorstorm: Pacific Rift.

Thank god that Battlefield 3 and Mass Effect 1-3 are on the way already.
Wait, where's the BF3 rumor? Because that sounds amazing.

let's see... nah get rid of Killzone 2, Heavenly Sword was also terrible as fuck, MAG? never played it (who has lol it was a massive flop) but it was supposedly great... so maybe, Twisted Metal 2012 was also awful IMO and also get rid of LBP.

the rest tho, yeah... gimme that MotorStorm and especially MGS4!
