So... don't do what I just did by mistake. Starting a "new game" will erase your current playthrough without warning.

I didn't even mean to start a new game, I was on the start menu and my dog jumped up on me and distracted me while I was hitting buttons (lame, I know). I selected new game and a difficulty and as soon as I loaded in I quit out and selected "current game." Nope, it loaded the new game, not my actual current playthrough. There is no "load game" option where you can save/load different playthroughs.

 

Pretty frustrating considering I was at the end of the game. Thankfully PSN auto-uploaded my save file from last night, so I was only set back 1-2 hours... but still pretty annoying. Beware, the game doesn't inform you starting a new game will overwrite your current playthrough.

For some games, paying for Plus just for the automatic backups in this situation would be worth the annual price.

I did the same thing on the ps3 remaster a few years back & that was without the help of a dog haha

Strange! I got a warning when I started a new game.

don't have a ps4 yet but, if this remake follow exactly the situation of the original ps2 version and the ps3's HD remaster. then no, there's no load save game feature. once you beat the game it will changed to challenge mode if you chose the Yes! options the only way to play the game from the start in normal mode is by finishing the playthrough you're working on and chose to travel back in time before you beat the last boss, or delete your save file.

this is kinda funny to hear, this is a Remake of the original game, isn't remakes mean update the graphics and controls to suit the new current standard, and especially fix the issues that seen on the original release? I thought they'll fix the load game thingies to allow you to use multiple save and stuff.

LOL NOT...did that on the ps3 R & C, no dog involved just my own stupidity...I FEEL YOUR PAIN, PAL

It does warn you though. It says something like do you wnat to overwrtie your current save file? It ask this when you wanna start a new game or if you wanna start challenge mode. you were probably just to distracted with ur dog

Actually, Insomniac said that it's a reimagining, not a remake, nor a reboot.

I don't know, it still looks more like a remake to me.

[BIOHAZARD-R-US]

Near the beginning of the game, after getting the Plumber on Novalis to repair your ship, he says "See you in the next reboot!" While yes, Insomniac called this a reimagining of the original, it's still technically a reboot based on that line, and also technically a remake since it follows the original story with some changes here and there (which is pretty much what a remake is). I guess it's all 3
