I love this idea!! I wish there would be more stuff out like this. Everything these days is all about equality, social issues, DEI, etc., etc. But then act like religion is some awful thing that doesn’t deserve representation. I’m religious myself, and definitely want to try this. Now that I think about it, wasn’t Bioshock very popular? I heard it had a ton of religious overtones. So what happened to making things like that?
I just want a full HD remaster complete with the little details that weren’t possible in the original version. Like how Lightning’s holster disappears at times. The game still holds up visually. I just want a little bit extra.
My brother was so looking forward to this. Until we found out there’s no physical version…Still wishing Frogwares success regardless though! We love their games.
I don’t really think I’ve had much chance to play a PS2? Hmmm. I remember watching my brother play it a few times. But he never uses it. I should try it myself. Or get his broken one fixed.
@LogicStrikesAgain Yooka-Laylee was called indie even though it was made by a former key members from Rare. Who have years of experience. Maybe the term just means independent studios these days? I always felt it meant it was something that was made by inexperienced people who make passion projects.
@mariomaster96 That’s exactly what I think we should all do. Not just give in and play whatever game is constantly in the news or shoved down our throats.
As much as I DON’T want to comment on one of these articles. I might as well throw my two cents in.
I feel, and I myself only observe and don’t play games a whole lot, BUT for me and my brother think personally is that most people only care about whatever big name, overhyped, insane graphics game comes out lately. Stellar Blade (disappointed), Baldur’s Gate 3, Kingdom Come Deliverance II. You know things like that. I feel that’s all anyone talks about anymore. But the two of us like simpler games. Especially anime-style. BUT I also feel that maybe there isn’t a market for in on PS5, because…PS4 is still so widely supported? My brother bought the newest Neptunia for PS4 instead of 5, because it’s still supported, and because the Switch game was censored, that’s another subject entirely.
Personally for the two of us there is still a market for AA games. Idea Factory games or even something like Yook-Laylee (No I don’t consider that indie in anyway) are what we enjoy. The only two games I have on Switch are One Piece games, which would be AA. It mostly just comes down to everyone’s preference. I personally have never saw much appeal to indie games and everyone seems to love those. I will say I do like Nintendo’s first party offerings which to me is the best of any AAA, especially lately.
Side note: If say Call of Duty is AAA and these are AA, then what would a single A game be? Indie?
I actually like Funko, but I legitimately wondered why this game was made. I would have probably tried it, if they hadn’t used some properties I utterly can’t stand in it.
@JonnyAces I guess when you put it that way, it does make more sense. I collect trading cards that just get stored in binders never to really be seen. I just feel some people blow trophies out of proportion and get mad if it’s not done right. It’d be like me throwing a fit if I didn’t get like a Charizard card in every Pokémon pack I buy…
@Andy22385 Is that really a missing feature though? It’s just a trophy. This is also on Switch. Which doesn’t have trophies. A missing feature would be like if it had something like a mini-game that was on one version and not the other. Or if the trophies actually unlocked something in the game, then that would be reasonable to be mad about.
I still don’t understand all this “trophy hunting” crap. Can’t we just enjoy a game for what it is? I seriously don’t get why some people throw a fit and refuse to even play a game if they can’t get the throphies.
I know I always gripe when people complain on articles, but seriously. Who the hell even likes this trash? Every damn time I see it I just think it’s so stupid. How is it THAT much more popular than these other trailers!
The hell is every game in existence lately getting some adaption anymore!? Plus they always suck. Not only that, this is the first I’m even hearing of this game. Just let games be games!!!
@ShogunRok While I find some articles clickbait-y myself. I do very much enjoy articles about updates! I wouldn’t have known about the recent Stellar Blade or Sparking ZERO! updates if not for that. Game updates I feel are important articles.
@CielloArc Starting to look like they’re just doing it for the attention, huh? All this controversy has definitely been keeping this game in the headlines.
I honestly don’t think I’ve ever really been interested in indie games aside from Limbo or Inside? And even then, it’s my brother who played those and I just watched…They just never really stood out to me to be honest.
And once again, another week more cancellations and layoffs. Different articles, but still! The industry is honestly looking very grim more and more, even if nobody wants to admit it.
Does everything need to have some film or TV adaption these days? Especially a game that came out not that long ago and I’ve barely even heard of? Every time an article pops up for this I think it’s Darkstalkers, the third game being called Vampire SAVIOR in Japan. Can’t games just be games anymore? Don’t most of these film/TV adaptations just suck?
What, $100 for a game that’ll probably be buggy, need updates to fix, likely be half finished, and THEN need paid DLC to finish it? How the HELL does anyone think this is a good idea?! I mean it is one thing to get a deluxe or collector’s edition for that price when it has extras, but $100 for a base game is absolutely stupid.
I like the crossover games like that one with various Koei Tecmo characters, or the Zelda and Fire Emblem games. But I’ve never played one of the actual games in the series. If those are any indication, these are just amazing games!
@Mikey856 Was that whole era of gaming really that incredible? My brother still talks very fondly of playing the 360, and even loved his PS3 when he first got it, even if he can’t really play it now.
But aren’t some of these recent PlayStation remasters just downright lazy? PS5 remasters of games that were released on PS4, what is even the point of that? I can understand if it’s something back from the PS1/2 eras, but not something that’s for a previous console that is STILL widely supported.
Does everyone really see the Switch as a “secondary console”? My brother far and beyond plays the Switch way WAY more than PS4/5 or even XONE. I think Switch 2 will do rather well, and while not directly competing with PS5, might possibly outsell it if done properly. But the whole topic of “casuals buying the Switch” does have a lot of merit as well.
I still think those damn memory cards are what really screwed the Vita from the start. Way too expensive and now they’re a nightmare to track down. I do enjoy the Vita TV I got, but I’m hesitant on buying more games because I can’t get more storage. It really should have used microSD, using specialty cards just felt outdated by that time I would say. However while I don’t have a lot of systems, the Vita is definitely one of my favorites.
I’ve never played Metal Gear, but I think these look great! I enjoy getting a Pop here and there as well. Just because you crybabies in the comments don’t like them doesn’t mean the rest of us want to hear your bitching.
I think it’s nice to be able to try games. My brother had it a few times and we played ReCore and Battletoads, but at the end of the day, we want to buy games and play them whenever we want. Not have to be tied to a subscription service that needs to constantly be renewed. The last time he had it we couldn’t find anything worthwhile to play except those two aforementioned games.
That’s it! Time to quit. This is absolutely the peak for “Will it Run Doom?” I don’t see how they can do anything more impressive than this? It’s always fun seeing these.
@Cry_Zero Doesn’t it already look good though? I don’t see the need for everything to be flashy. But I do agree AC1 needs a much needed QoL upgrades. It can be a bit of a pain to play at times.
So basically they just lazily wrote a way to “fix” the plot after all the horrible backlash at how stupid the story was? So none of the Justice League actually died then?
What the hell would even be the point of buying games then if they’ll just play them for you? It’s like people who watch whole play through on a stupid video sites and act like they experienced the game themselves.
Aren’t like all gaming communities increasingly toxic though? Have you seen some of the comments on this site? I’ve even been harassed constantly to the point of quitting two Nintendo sites. I’m no fan of the VAs for these FFVII remakes, but I’m not going to criticize and berate them just because they’re not to my liking.
