HuntingFever Posted June 29, 2022 Share Posted June 29, 2022 I just hope it fixes the stability and trophy issues that have plagued the game since launch. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Alchemist Posted June 29, 2022 Share Posted June 29, 2022 Hopefully the technical issues get fixed. I had no real intention of playing the game because of the aforementioned issues, but I picked up the limited edition steelbook for pennies not too long ago, so it'd be great if I could now get around to giving it a go for myself. But if this update fixes nothing then I probably won't bother. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashbo Posted June 29, 2022 Share Posted June 29, 2022 The game was a massive disappointment imo and was nothing like the original. Just felt like a lazy attempt to update and spruce up an old game, which they failed at miserably. Not the best remake by any stretch and the graphics/gameplay alone were nothing like the original. Hopefully the update addresses alot of the issues, as it was a poor showing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for posting this. I grabbed an import of the UK version from eBay today. It was cheaper than any NA versions, and is a limited edition steelbook to boot. I’ll hold on until the update comes out now. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Batmannequin Posted June 30, 2022 Share Posted June 30, 2022 This is interesting. The game is only £8 at the moment. I did love the original, but steered clear of the remake because it seemed like a disaster. I may consider picking it up now, because I reckon if the update is actually good it will go back up in price, and if the update isn't any good then I'm only down the price of a few beers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Batmannequin Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 Bit the bullet and grabbed the Limited Edition Steelbook from Amazon for £8.95 - hopefully this do-over version is decent, haha. If not, at least it looks pretty on the shelf. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RadiantFlamberge Posted July 2, 2022 Share Posted July 2, 2022 (edited) Nice to know of this update, but it really should have come sooner. Once the re-remake launches, I'll try it. Thank God PlayMagic is off the project and we've got Tower Five. Hopefully this ends up being a miracle turn-around like the PC port of Ys VIII, which started out with many technical issues, but eventually became stellar once Laurel Code got the boot and Durante's PH3 Games studio took it over. Fingers crossed. One of my most disliked things about the remake's current state is how you cannot have certain weapons in your inventory at the same time. In the classic XIII you could have an M60 and sniper rifle in your inventory. In the remake, you will have to drop one to take the other. Please let this be fixed. Shame Sony killed the PSVita. A direct port of the original UbiSoft XIII would have been good for it. Edited July 3, 2022 by RadiantFlamberge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ObsiEez Posted July 2, 2022 Share Posted July 2, 2022 Damn the remake was so bad they gotta remake the remake. For real though, hope the updates actually make the game playable & enjoyable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Alchemist Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 It doesn't mention this in the article (it only mentions 60fps when playing in back compat on PS5), and other news sites are all reporting the same thing as well so I'm not sure if anyone actually picked up on this, but apparently there is going to be a native PS5 version of this new "updated" version of the game, at least according to a listing on Amazon: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Maximum-Games-XIII-PS5/dp/B0B4NRRD55/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?crid=195MXABNEBPYP&keywords=xiii+ps5&qid=1657112644&sprefix=xiii%2Caps%2C121&sr=8-1 Not sure why they wouldn't mention this ?♂️ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MatThaRiPP3R84 Posted August 15, 2022 Share Posted August 15, 2022 very nice I grabbed the game for less then £7 on holiday lol, been wanting to play it again, glad they are fixing it. Just wish nordic would hurry their ass up and fix titan quest dlc too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got it and the Beyond a Steel Sky steelbook imported for less than the digital copy of XIII here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got my copy off eBay and it was less than $30 Canadian, shipped. So probably £15-20 Edited August 16, 2022 by diskdocx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarcusPunisher Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 You can try to polish a turd but at the end of the day it's still a turd. Better off sticking with the original. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
