Support NeoGAF

[AV]

I don't understand what the point of this is.

It'll sell millions for not much development, not surprised. Someone in this thread is probably already Googling where they can pre-order it.

 

[StreetsofBeige]

There were many bunch of people who said a LoU 1 remake was coming. Whomever they are, they were right.

And any who said a PC version coming too, bonus (ahem VFX Veteran).

 

[Ulysses 31]

“faithfully reproduced but incorporating modernized gameplay, improved controls and expanded accessibility options. Plus, feel immersed with improved effects and enhanced exploration and combat.“

It says total overhaul so story alterations is not off the table.

 

[Kagey K]

Well, well.

69.99/99.99?

WTF?

 

[Wohc]

I expect the Pc release together with the tv show.

 

[Flabagast]

This remake is so useless

 

[Punished Miku]

They are literally using the same exact cutscenes from the first. I saw no differences. They just swapped out the character models and other assets. Everything else is the same.

This isnt a remake like RE2 and RE3. This is more of a asset swap like Demon Souls and SOTC. You dont have to worry about new cutscenes, new gameplay sections with Abby etc.

I dont believe that. Im sure things are different. The gameplay is definitely changed. No reason to not make some edits the 2nd time around.

 

[Flutta]

I don't understand what the point of this is.

You can play the game on PS5 already and it's no like the PS4 version doesn't hold up reasonably well by today's standards.

Talk about milking a cow.

”Gamers be like”

 

[Dusktildawn48]

$70 is about $30 too much, but I'm a sucker for LOU1, my favorite single player game of all time so I'll be buying like a schmuck.

 

[Gamezone]

But not day and date?

Not for PC.

 

[adamsapple]

The snitch was fucking spot on.

 

[FUBARx89]

See Sony has found their RE4/Skyrim.

I won't be paying 70 quid for it like, can get fucked.

 

[Rac3r]

Ok what about Factions though?

 

[rofif]

I hope it’s real remake not just graphical. I also hope it’s brutal!!!

 

[GHG]

69.99/99.99?

WTF?

It's ok, you don't have the facility to purchase it anyway.

Milking a zombie in this case. It’s not pleasant .

 

[Tiago Rodrigues]

They're trying to do it the Nintendo way. We'll see how it goes.

The original sold over 20M copies. Probably the best selling game EVER for Sony.
It'll do great. Specially with the PC port coming around the time the TV show debuts.

 

[Tarnpanzer]

Need a comparison with the PS4 Remaster.

 

[StreetsofBeige]

Will be interesting to see what the time gap between the PS5 and PC versions are.

I'll say 6 months tops.

 

[R6Rider]

I'll still get it, although I still don't think it was necessary. That being said, I haven't seen gameplay and it could very well convince me otherwise that it is.

 

[MiguelItUp]

Honestly after looking at that trailer I would've assumed remaster over remake.

 

[Topher]

This isnt a remake like RE2 and RE3. This is more of a asset swap like Demon Souls and SOTC. You dont have to worry about new cutscenes, new gameplay sections with Abby etc.

For the record, Sony never referred to this as a remake.

"now rebuilt for PlayStation®5."

Sounds like something in between remaster and remake, perhaps.

 

[Mossybrew]

Been there done that, no thanks.

 

[Punished Miku]

Ok what about Factions though?

Bungies checking it out in meetings this week.

 

[phvk]

In before “the graphics look the same”

PS4:

PS5:

Spoiler: they don’t

 

[SlimySnake]

Just seems so weird that it's not on ps4 as well. Like you're going to have a native version of part 1 on the ps5 but not ps4 and part 2 only on ps4 with a ps5 patch.....

...wait a minute, of course there is going to be a directors cut of last of us part 2 on ps5 that includes factions?

I mean, where the fuck is factions...they cant be charging full price for this with just the campaign, surely.

Oh and just to add, this game is one of my favourite games of all time...like legit top 5...I'm all over it...I just don't think this needs to exist....I completed the ps4 version like 6 months ago again and it's still basically perfect and looks great.

I thought for sure they would bundle this with Factions and a TLOU2 native PS5 SKU but Jimbo being jimbo.

They are treating this like Demon Souls which was also $70 despite the fact that the SOTC remake was only $40. New Sony is not the same as old Sony.

That said, Demon Souls looked better to me than this game which still looks very last gen while DS still had a somewhat next gen feel to it.

Looks like the page was already removed. Somebody's getting fired.

 

[SJRB]

Sigh... I am so fucking done with TLOU..

 

[Nitty_Grimes]

Be interesting to see what they mean by ‘modernising gameplay’

They changing parts of the story aren’t they.

 

[Elginer]

I still have to
Ask why? Is this gonna be the new Skyrim with many ports?

 

[StreetsofBeige]

Looks like Sony is pricing the game as a normal release. So $90 CDN standard/$130 CDN Deluxe Edition.

 

[Matsuchezz]

Awesome i have to have it, i need it. Fuck yes. There are some parts that i love in the first game that will look fucking amazing. Is there another link? I cant watch it.

 

[kyliethicc]

Be interesting to see what they mean by ‘modernising gameplay’

More like Part 2.

 

[CatLady]

The real question is, is this a REMAKE of the REMAKE or a Remake of the original?

How many fucking times is Sony going to sell this mediocre game.

I think they are trying to compete with GTAV and Skyrim to see who make and sell the same game the most times

 

[Cyborg]

Whos the Snitch?

 

[Bladed Thesis]

I don't understand what the point of this is.

You can play the game on PS5 already and it's no like the PS4 version doesn't hold up reasonably well by today's standards.

Talk about milking a cow.

I would have no problem doing a fifth playthrough on this if it came with Factions or was $20 cheaper. But $70 for the same game I already bought twice and beat four times...

I'll probably pass on this one and get it for PC.

Demon Souls and SOTC are a remakes, just stop.

Your ignorant concern goal posts are clownish at times.

 

[BigbyTheSheriff]

Day fucking one!

 

[Bartski]

trailer is still online. Looks SICK omg

 

[reksveks]

Wonder how big the gap is between ps5 and PC release

 

[Nitty_Grimes]

Looks like the page was already removed. Somebody's getting fired.

JIIIIIIIMMMMMMMMMMMMMM

 

[crunchyBiscuits]

Let's.... Go!!!

 

[Warnen]

JR getting his Twitter rant ready

 

[SilentUser]

Definitely my favorite ND game. Not sure it needed a remake. Cool that they’re just announcing a PC version right up front too.

Same here. Loved the first title (played it on PS3 and later played the PS4 version). I'm skipping the PS5 version, though the graphics are far better than the PS3, I don't think there is a compelling reason to pay for it again.

 

[DenchDeckard]

There's no way this is 70 dollars...no way. And without the multiplayer?

 

[Mr Moose]

Looks like the page was already removed. Somebody's getting fired.

Some guy in Japan *sets to auto publish at midnight*

 

[ACESHIGH]

Yeah, so manypc ports at once would canibalize sales. I was just happy with a ps4 version of the game. Specs should be much higher for a PS5 one.

What the heck are they going to remake? 7th gen games still feel fresh when played at higher resolutions and frame rates.

 

[Ghost of Caelid]

Still dont know why this exist...still will be buying for 70$...oh wait.

 

[BennyBlanco]

The Snitch is a real leaker from Sony. Must mean that Kojimbo game is Sony as well.

 

[SoraNoKuni]

So, that means we'll see the overdose Kojima thing, the snitch has been 100% correct in everything, and seems like a Sony leaker.
