Wow, a lot of you guys seem excited for these games! Let me let you in on a really big secret.
Go turn on your PS3.
You can play these right now! No waiting! You can probably buy them super cheap!
I know, right? The PS4 is so awesome the games are out years before they're released!
Fun fact: ps3 remasters in no way affect ps4 games. At all. Third party studios are hired to come in and work on these games while the first party studios continue to work on their games.

The more you know.
Sony seems to be living off these remasters lately. Is there a first party studio releasing an actual new game for Sony this entire year? My mind is drawing a blank atm.
Fun fact: developers only have so much in the budget for development so when you pay a third party money goes to them instead of in house development. So less development work on new games. Also because they make so much *profit* on just putting out the same stuff over and over by porting they are less willing to take risks. And why bother if they can pay their bills doing easier stuff, I don't blame them.
The more you know.
Of course they affect PS4 games.
couldnt they hire those third party studios and give them an original IP to work on instead or the ps4?
I kind of agree I am tired of remasters at least xbox gives you the option of backwords compatibility

Now that I think about it....I don't think I ever fought that thing on my playthrough

No, I don't think the major publishers would give big checks to High Voltage Games, Wholesale Algorithms, Virtuos Games, etc. to make new IP.
It's not stopping new games from coming out and some of these remasters actually help fund sequels for existing franchises.That's pretty bad news...When I buy a new console, it's to have new games. They should have included the backward compatibility on their console like Microsoft or Nintendo !

Like..........................
?
Yep they just hand them checks to half ass ports for a quick buck. Yay...
It doesn't affect games from their first party studios, but it affects other exclusives. Instead of looking for a third party studio to work on an IP they own, they just remaster an old game. Same with digital titles, there's only such much a publisher wants to release in a year. Realising digital games makes them release less retail games too. Just look how many games they used to release on their PS2 and PS3 days and compare that to what we have now.
I would be down for Demon's Souls, but that is about it.
well in that case sadly ms gives the option of bc
This is sort of pathetic.
I have nothing against them remastering PS3 games but when you consider the drought of actual PS4 exclusives at the moment this is a bit stupid.
Thats good for MS. They have great engineers and are able to do it.
Sony can not. The PS3 was a nightmare to develop for. Being able to some how port that system to the PS4 is probably extremely difficult.

First party? MLB 2015 and Until Dawn, I guess?Sony seems to be living off these remasters lately. Is there a first party studio releasing an actual new game for Sony this entire year? My mind is drawing a blank atm.

Alternatively, they thought they saw the future and were wrong in a very costly way.of course its good for ms but bad for sony in certain perspectives, they were really short sighted with the cell

This is all I want. Include the DLC and price it at $20 and I'll be there day 1
Where the hell she at Sony?
Puppeteer. That's the one game we need remastered.
Sony could easily match ms backwards compatabilty by checking ure ps3 licenses and letting you download those games through psnow , its not ideal but is workable, but i doubt they will do it.
Psn already struggles , imagine if everyone as downloading full blueray games.
This would be great, the game was so overlooked.
I don't think you know how PS Now works.
Pretty good chance:
- Demon's Souls
- Ni No Kuni
Pipe-dream:
- Persona 4: Golden
What we'll probably get:
- Beyond Two Souls
