My prediction is that this will not sell well and square-enix will take that as a lack of interest in the franchise and will not make another one.
 
Oh wow, I missed this news. This is actually one of those games I was hoping to be remastered. I know the rumor had been out there for awhile, glad to see it actually happening.

And I can understand PC owners not caring about this, their version was already beautiful, but us console peasants were restricted to old hardware to play this game. Plus I sold my old copy because I was desperate for money.

So I'm happy. Definitely getting this.

Yeah! $60 for PC grade graphics and DLC. Great deal /s

Too bad I bought it on steam for like £4. DLC was dirt cheap too. Didn't 360 owners get this for free recently as well?
I don't know, but it's sad for Ps4/One owners in some way. They are just being targeted for cash.


Edit: want to point out that I loved this game and is definitely worth picking up, just maybe on a different platform.
 
It's good that people get to experiment what I think it's the best open world adventure of last gen.

That said, asking us to pay $60 for it is way too much. I think that if it'd be $40 more People would buy it in a heartbeat, not to mention that is probably going against GTA V in the fall season which is a much, bigger dog.

I have already have the game and all the DLC on PC. I just don't have a rig to run it.

I was hoping that it would be cheaper than $60. Do we know if there is an option without the book?
 
Pretty sweet news actually, even if there are too many remastered versions doing the rounds right now. I was actually going to pick up the game again for the PS3, because I wanted to play it again and regret selling my original copy, but now I know what I must do.

Not paying anything over £20 though, so I'll wait for that price cut.

Already have this on PC. But I kind of want it on the PS4...someone please talk me out of this.

Just do not do it. You would be buying to justify your ownership of the PS4, not because you want to play the game.

Spend the money on a different game and start a new file on SDogs.

Goddamn, I am an idiot... but like GTA then?
I found it 10x more enjoyable than GTA V for what it's worth haha! Sleeping Dogs is excellent!

And are we really going to go through the whole argument about it being a straight port after Tomb Raider, from the same Pub and probably Dev if UFG is working on this also proved that wrong?

This is absolutely NO reason for you to buy this @ $60 for PS4. If for some reason you want it, just for trophies, let the price fall. Don't do this to yourself.

It's already out for PC and the DLC has been dirt cheap during Steam sales.

I don't buy DLC. I refuse to support that entire business model. The only time I ever did last gen was for Minerva's Den, and even that I wasn't totally satisfied it was worth the coin.

The only time I ever use DLC is when it comes as part of a package like this, and then it's part of a package where I'm getting the game and the DLC together for a significantly reduced price, usually less than the cost of the original game alone by far.

Fair enough, I just wait for DLC to be on sale and pick it up then.
 
Still can't believe a bunch of remasters and cross gens will make me jump in, but looks like I'm definitely buying a PS4 this fall!

Cool, I never played the original. I'll try it out when the price gets cheap.

If it bombs and people wait for pricedrop to buy it, maybe sqe gets the memo and release the ports at a better price.

If it doesn't bomb, then the market has talked, live with it and wait for a pricedrop anyway if you feel like it.

I don't see the point of complaining in any case, I don't intend on buying it but if I ever do, it will be when the value proposition make sense for me. There'snoneedtobeupset.jpg

I did not expect to like this game as much as I did. Played it on PC and it looked and played very well. I recommend PS4 and XBO users buy this.

This remaster would have made sense if it was during summer or spring. October is like suicide date for such title

Will definitely buy when it's on sale. I'd like to have this game in my collection... I'm just not likely to buy it at $60.

Not buying this until it's at least $30. It comes out in October so it won't be too long before the price drops drastically.
