nrs1nrs1 Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 For being included in the Deluxe Edition, which is only $20 more than the standard one, this seems like a great price point for two very solid games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarcusPunisher Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 (edited) Interesting, although the facial animations and the engine performance would have to be really impressive for me to buy it again and to justify another purchase.

Conor Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 Lawl, literally just got the plat for Before the Storm... But I will definitely cop for this in a couple of years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rias Gremory Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 Would of been nice if they remastered the PS5 version. That would be the perfect icing on the cake. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RachelCharlotte Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 What a great excuse for to to play my favourite game again ? I really hope the improvements don't end up diminishing the experience in any way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xTheTrommeL Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 Why do you remaster a game for the same console though? I would have loved to see a ps5 remaster with raytracing 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snakebit10 Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 I was under the impression that this was being remastered for PS5. I don't understand why it is on PS4 only. I was thinking about getting it again but if there isn't a PS5 version than I may hold off. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Evil_Joker88 Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 Unnecessary, the games look good already. But probably better to re release Season 1 instead of a season 3 after the bad season 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are games that deserve a lot more remastering, like Dead Space or Grand Theft Auto IV. But... I really like the first season, so it wouldn't be a problem for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djb5f Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 I assume this would be for PS5 but the shot at the end of the video shows PS4 at the bottom? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, apparently is it a PS4 game being remastered for the PS4. We have reached the pinnacle of remaster spam. Now that doesn't mean that the PS4 remaster won't get a re-remaster or definitive upgrade on the PS5, but from everything I have read this is planned for only the PS4 at the moment. I really don't remember the game being that visually clunky, and of all the PS4 games that warrant an upgrade, this would have been no where on my wish list. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
demonoid321 Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 I'm confused by this. On there website you can Pre-Order it for both PS5 and PS4 but it directs you to the PSN store for the PS4? What's the point in remastering a game for a console that its already released on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully it maybe gets a physical later, if not, I'm unlikely going to bother rebuying it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
