The moment these companies start changing old beloved franchises to "make them appealing for "modern audiences" (?)" is the moment they start screwing it up for woke points and thus flopping and getting bad reviews by the "modern" costumers they're trying to appeal.
In 2022 we had thousands of examples of these woke flops, RE Netflix series, Willow, She Hulk, The Witcher Blood Origin, Strange World, Lightyear, Ms Marvel, The Little Mermaid remake 1 million dislikes in YT, etc.......

So I really hope they stay true to the original masterpiece and don't turn this remake into another forgettable one ruined by wokeness, we had millions of those in recent years.

Another crappy woke game where you play as a buff lesbian. Hard pass.

As long as this one doesn't feature another buff lesbian feminazi killing a white man and taking his role like with the 2nd game, I'll be looking forward to it.

How much ugly, bland and boring do you want your forgettable woke videogame protagonist to be?
The result:

Well, since their recent FF titles from this last decade have been pretty forgettable in terms of story and characters, they have to go back to milk their golden 90s era where they actually made iconic characters and stories.

US companies and their obsession with pandering continues...

@Northern_munkey yeah that's why I'm sadly not as excited for GTA 6 as I once was years ago. Considering the new latin female protagonist you can tell its going to be filled with woke garbage that nobody in the world outside of a minority in US Twitter cares about.

Good graphics and animations, really boring "gameplay".

@nookie_egg its El Gigante (Spanish for The Giant), gargante doesn't mean anything.

@Shredderlovespizza that's because Silent Hill 2 is the most beloved one in the franchise, the first 4 are considered the better SH games because the original Japanese developer was making them, but overall SH2 is regarded as the best one and one of the best horror/psychological games of all time.

@DylanP speak for yourself. Many people love Silent Hill since decades, and Kojima never had anything to do with them until that teaser from some years ago. Silent Hill 2 is regarded as one of the best ones in the franchise with the most emotional story, I rather much preferred the original Silent Team remaking it rather than Kojima or anyone else who'll likely not be able to translate it well in a remake.

Go woke go broke.
Next time try not to pander to minorities on Twitter and try to pander to the general global population who will be the ones that will actually support your game.

YES!! its pretty much the only game that made me really wish to have a PS5, since they're still pretty expensive on my country. I'm so happy for this, I also couldn't believe it was a PS5-only game when judging by the graphics it was clearly capable to run on a PS4 too. I enjoyed the PS4 version of Village despite the load times, so I'll be enjoying this as well

@nessisonett what about lightyear, ms marvel, batgirl, batwoman, supergirl, resident evil netflix series, etc released this year?
all woke, all broke/cancelled/flopped.
and I heard you can customize the characters of this game so...

A black guy only killing white zombies, of course lmao

I'm latino. Having a female protagonist isn't woke, it is obviously woke when nowadays they force said character to be multiple minorities at once, lesbian, male-like with big muscles, non-white, for no reason, just for the sake of representation (representating 1% of the global population that is, we aren't even talking about 49%), and her antagonist will likely be a white heterosexual male, because companies nowadays fear to make a black or latino character the villain to not be called out as "racist", so they are forced to send the fake message that all white heterosexual people are bad and evil, and all minorities are Mother Teresa.
Like I said I'm latino, there are good latin people and there are bad latin people. There are good white people and there are bad white people.
Its a pity companies nowadays from both the movie industry and game industry aren't being fair and balancing that out, out of fear of getting "cancelled" by Twitter people who represents 5% of the population, while the rest doesn't care about said dumb representations.

They should let us change that whole horrible cast of woke characters and have them the way most gamers want them to be, without political agendas in the middle.

This is the reason why I don't play these games despite the gameplay mechanic looking good, if I know I'm going to be constantly frustrated dying time after time then the meaning that games are supposed to be fun and a way to relieve the stress of coming home from work/school gets lost if despite having a stressful day I'm going to continue being stressed out playing these games.
Its a pity, if their games were more accessible I'm sure they'd be selling even better.

@Bamila Until Dawn is 100% both an homage and a parody of every horror movie clichés and tropes, so the cringe stuff is made intentional to resemble the cringe acting of your usual horror movie cast.

@Matroska the name only sounds weird if you're from the US since in that country the most popular sports are those the rest of the world doesn't care about like baseball, american football, golf, etc except for a minority. Worldwide, FIFA is a pretty well known name.

@KundaliniRising333 And you always make the same mediocre comments every time SH's name is mentioned lol, who hurt you?
SH2 is regarded as one of the best psychological horror games out there, PT even to this day is still one of the most influential horror games from recent years, spawning clones like Layers of Fear among others. Even your Resident Evil 7 ended up taking clear influence out of it.
So that's your opinion, not facts.

@Athrum Shattered Memories? you could use a flare at certain points to stun enemies for a little while, but it was mostly just running away from enemies and it was a good game overall, the first 4 are still the best but I really liked SM.

@KundaliniRising333 the first 4, specially SH 2, which were developed by the original Japanese Team Silent are regarded as masterpieces of the horror game genre, and PT made by Kojima even if it was just a teaser became one of the most influential horror titles of the last decade, if you didn't liked them that's your problem, not the games' lol. Some later games developed by Western developers are indeed not as good, but the original 4 have fantastic reviews and people to this day keeps playing them. God knows what kind of trash games you play yourself thinking they're good.

@jmbenetti I think you can avoid some of them by not interacting with some characters or not choosing to have sex with them. I think there's 1 scene that can't be skipped but I can't remember well.

@MinerWilly the remastered version of Beyond actually includes more content than the PS3 version: 1- you can now play it in chronological order, 2- a new screen appears at the end of the chapters telling you what choices you made, which ones you missed and what choices did other users made, 3- it comes with a DLC that was only available for people who pre-ordered the PS3 version I think. etc...

@ToddlerNaruto Quantic Dream confirmed last month on their Twitter that this game will cost $14.99, like the majority of PS2 games on PS4 with platinums.

@get2sammyb Is uncensored, Quantic Dream already confirmed that on their Twitter. The original PS2 release was also uncensored but only on Europe I think.
Now it will be uncensored for both regions.

@Mickael486 twice? I never bought it, and now is my chance. This PS2 games comes with trophy support, 1080p resolution, remote play, share play, and streaming capabilities. Trophy/platinum support is an incentive for many people who likes to earn trophies with this PS2 games.
This remasters/emulations/ports are aimed to be played by people like me who never got the chance to play them before, is not aimed for people who already did it unless they feel like doing it again. I mean is their money and they can do whatever they want with it, and if they have fun playing it again then it was money well spent.

@kyleforrester87 no it was never going to be released on episodes or anything like that, the story was written like that, which made david cage infamous for being a bad writer according to some people, beyond was also criticized because of this, and heavy rain had some plot holes in it.

@brendon987 this is being released as part of sony's ps2 emulation on ps4 like all the other ps2 games already available on ps4 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_PlayStation_2_games_for_PlayStation_4
so it will only come to ps4 but this ps4 versions have remote play, so you can play them on your vita while your ps4 is on.

@VanillaLake see my reply to Utena-mobile above, the PS3 versions didn't had any trophies, remote play, share play and streaming capabilities so it was easy and quicker to make them, meanwhile this PS4 versions does have all of that so it takes way more time to make them this time (it takes 1 to 2 months per game to add trophies according to a Sony's employee, and yes remote play, share play and streaming needs to be manually tested to ensure they work properly, is not just an automatic process made by the console, they need to test those things first)
They were able to make more deals on the PS3 because those companies didn't had to invest nearly any money into those ports, as opposed of now that they have to invest something so Sony can add those trophies and test the other functions which also takes money to do so.
Also another theory of mine is that MS's Xbox One BC announcement took Sony by surprise so they had to announce their PS2 emulation in the same year at the PS Experience event, so since they were in a rush they were only able to make a deal with Rockstar giving their success and some other minor companies, we'll be seeing more deals soon but like I said this PS4 ports have more actual effort put into them as opposed to the PS3 versions which were lazy ports, the only difference being the 720p resolution and that was it, so obviously it was much more easy and quicker to make those PS3 ports.

@Utena-mobile there were more PS2 games on PS3 because they were straight ports, they didn't had to add trophies, remote play, share play or streaming capabilities, the PS3 versions didn't had any of that so it was very easy and quick to make them, meanwhile this PS4 versions does have all of that so it takes way longer to make them, adding trophies and testing them takes 1 to 2 months per game according to some Sony's employee, that's why they are taking longer to be released than the PS3 ones which were lazy ports with no actual effort.

@Carl-G adding trophies, testing them and also testing all the other things like remote play, share play, streaming capabilities, etc takes time, according to some sony employee it takes nearly 1 to 2 months to add and test trophies, so of course it takes a little time for them to release them.

@Utena-mobile why bad? they are releasing most games that were published by them originally and rockstar, to release more games that were originally published by other companies they need to make deals with those companies, which takes time and effort and the approval of those companies to port their games. and since this is a ps2 emulation program they are just porting ps2 games, unless sony does a similar thing and starts a ps1 emulation program in the future.

@VanillaLake there are actually 25 PS2 games already available on PS4, that Store list that you shared is incomplete, games like Wild Arms 3, Max Payne, Bully, etc aren't listed there. Here is a link that list all 29 PS2 games that are already available on PS4 or going to be available soon: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_PlayStation_2_games_for_PlayStation_4
