Two remasters from the last year of PS3 before PS4 is hardly "too many"

Hey, guest user. Hope you're enjoying NeoGAF! Have you considered registering for an account? Come join us and add your take to the daily discourse.
Beyond Two Souls is coming on PS4 if we trust Gameblog.fr
- Thread starter GarciaHotspur
- Start date
TLOU, Tomb Raider, Beyond Two Souls, GTA V, Metro/Last Light, Sleeping Dogs. I know most aren't exclusives..but that is a lot of remasters.
With a new Mass Effect in development, I wouldn't be surprised to see a Mass Effect HD trilogy, I think we'll definitely see an Uncharted trilogy..knowing SE's need to get a quick buck, we'll probably see a FFXIII trilogy.

Will definitely buy. Hopefully it has a photo mode.

Hopefully it's true which would be good news for everyone.
Recently played through on PS3 and absolutely loved it. Wanted to play more but decided to hold off in case they do something like this.

That Sony exec was obviously talking about Sony themselves, mostly. Having TLOU and a few smaller PSN titles brought over to PS4 is hardly overblow. And six HD remasters overall is hardly all that bad either, especially when it's games like GTAV and Metro that suffered from being on dated hardware like PS360.
All are considering newer games as well ( TloU= 2013, Metro LL=2013,Metro=2010, Beyond= 2013, Sleeping Dogs=2012) that is another issue here with this gen remasters. as I said before if publishers really want to remaster they should go for some older titles from 2005~2010 (especially on PS3 since it was very expensive and many people didn't get it back then and missed the early exclusives games)

no Folklore drop from you? I'm surprised.

I'd throw down $60 for a PS4 Folklore with the DLC built in. The lightbar and speaker would go PERFECTLY when yanking the souls out of creatures.
Glad I wasn't the only one surprised XD

Omigawd it'd be perfect. And WTF, Wipeout and Warhawk HAVE to be on PS4. Even just remasters. Warhawk especially deserves a second chance.

I really love this game but I wouldn't double dip.
There's as much reason & logic to bringing newer games to new platforms as there is to old games. 1) people save for new console generations and miss some late generation games, 2) late generation games push the platforms past their limits, resulting in less than ideal performance, 3) a lot of people shift from one platform holder's console to another's during generational shifts, people who will not have played past exclusives, 4) a lot of games like the Metro games & Sleeping Dogs weren't superhuge sellers' so bringing them to the new generation during their first couple of years brings them more visibility, 5) a lot of the older games you want are more or less dead and buried, but Sleeping Dogs, Metro etc.will have sequels on PS4Bone, so building their fan base will be extremely important because game development ain't getting any cheaper6) some people get kind of tired of consoles at some point if their lifespan and lose interest in buying a lot of games for old consoles, also leading them to miss some gems late in console's life
The game is a revival marvel, I think. The visuals they achieved on PS3 were top notch. If the give the game a resolution bump and perhaps a better control scheme then it'd be a good remaster. Cage's writing is hit or miss with a lot of people though. So it's definitely a matter of preference.

Wasn't a good game so i don't see the point.
Seems to me that heavy rain would be a better candidate since it at least got good reviews.

This game, along with Puppeteer, I can see being likely remasters. They were released on the tail end of the PS3's life cycle and didn't get the recognition they deserved.
It seems Beyond 2 Souls is a hit or miss for many people though. I personally loved it mainly because of the strong performances by Ellen Page and Willem Dafoe. Didn't like how the story jumped around in time because I completed the game over multiple play sessions, but I appreciated the game itself (yea even the Navajo weirdness). Would be amazing if this remaster is done in the Dark Sorcerer demo tech.

I don't like them either, but this time it's true.

Bad troll.
You have the right to not like their tone or contents but they always came up with rumors that became true eventually (RE / AC / console SKUs related). As for Quantic Games, they always have exclusive interviews/Cage's blog entries/etc..

I've been holding off picking up the PS3 version because of how rumoured this has been. I've heard that it looks amazing on PS3 tho.

I love QD games and i even wanted to buy beyond two souls , however for some reason i couldn't buy it.
( if only the digital version on PSn was cheaper ) .
I really want to play it , because i loves every QD game so far.. so if true i guess i'll wait for a PS4 version

I just had a look at the website and they're saying QD's first PS4 game will be none other than Kara (would be renamed Singularity and is based upon the Kara tech demo)

should great 60 FPS
didn't like the game that much due to the occult story line.

That would be weird though as there's already a last-gen game called Singularity.

The domain singularityps4.com was registered by QD in Nov 2013
click for Kotaku article about this
It's worth noting that "David Cage acknowledged futurist Ray Kurzweil's recent book The Singularity is Near as a chief influence on Quantic Dream's "Kara" tech demo"
domain registration:
Wouldn't that be redundant, with Bloodborne on the horizon ? It seems to me like they should have all the focus on their shiny new game, but I guess there's still quite a bit of time until then.
As for the subject at hand, I didn't dislike Beyond : Two Souls, but I strongly preferred Heavy Rain. I guess I like more realistic settings, and the twist/reveal was much better thought-out than in Beyond. I still cried like a schoolgirl a few times, though.

I will double dip on this so fast. Loved this game!
IMO Heavy Rain was a plot holed snooze.

I worded my post pretty badly, sorry.
What I meant (somehow) was that this game was riding on Heavy Rain's coattails, and from the start (to me) it always looked pretty average or even a little dire if I'm honest. There are many more games that deserve a fix up over this. I feel like they want to re-release it because it probably didn't match its budget and they need to squeeze that extra £$ out of it to make it profitable.

This.
Awesome game. But same as Heavy Rain, I don't want to play it again to spoil the great adventure I had when I originally played them.
I will maybe replay it toward end of PS4 lifecycle. In the meantime Sony will release both Until Dawn and Singularity, so that long wait wont be too hard.

Pretty much. It came out too late on the PS3 for me to care about it since I already bought the PS4.
Could be an E3 announcement?
