Post-post warning: My typings a bit shit due to a cold, and the escapist seems to like lagging out when I type stuff on it, so half the time I'm missing letters or whole words...
OK, I'm no just saying this because it's DMC, in fact I loved the early games, but if I wanted to play some cherished ol game, I'd play them!
I can understand that some late-comers to the franchises might not be so enthusiastic about backtracking to the days of yore(to which I ask, WHY?), when HD didn't really mean much to anybody
But when it seems to be common ground for businesses to rehash old stuff some HD gloss I have wonder where this is going...
I mean, if it was HD remakes (read: not remasters)then yeah, you'd have something worth lookin into, but just making shit shinier with a higher definition isn't something I'm personally looking to spend full retail price on, even if it is a bundle deal.
I know there are people who want this, as is evident by just about every post before mine, but ask yourselves, if you take the hook now, what's to stop companies from pulling this shit all the time?
Can't think of a new IP? Just remaster some old gems, the fans'll fucking hoover it up like pidgeons on bread-crumbs...
Or like Capcom, Fans react badly to a re-do of a favourite ld IP? Remaster the old stuff they did like, that'll distract them!
(Y'know when you're not busy re-releasing Street Fighter every couple of years)
I have no doubt that sometimes theses kinds of things are worth and some people legitimately have reasons for buying into it, but as for me, I'm just wondering when the hell it's likely to end, because if it doesn't soon, this might be the standard in a few years...
Scary shit.

More bonus content?
While i doubt it means they fixed everything wrong with DMC2 it makes me wonder just what theyre going to put in DMC3.

It looks like you need reminding that Capcom is working on Asura's Wrath and Dragons Dogma, two entirely new IP's, so Capcom are working on Asura's Wrath and Dragons Dogma, two entirely new IP's [http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment].Archemetis said:
If this was on PC, I'd get it just for DMC 3. I have first 3 games on PS2, but I want this in HD on my PC. Too bad these HD releases are never coming to PC.
I might get this if the version of DMC was the special edition with playable Virgil and extra bosses.
I only played DMC2 and it was one of the ugliest games, aesthetic-wise, that I have ever played.
But it was really fun, so I approve of this HD re-release.

Hmm...I've already got these games, hell I've got the original and special editions of DMC3 but this supposed "new content" piques my interest.
Maybe we'll get lucky and the DMC1 control scheme will be the same as the DMC3 controls. I mean, pressing triangle to jump? The fuck DMC1?

Well... sadly, Capcom can't make me forget that DMC2 exists and worse yet, they'll entice me to finish it again *shudder* just to get those delicious trophies/achievements.
Other than that, this is awesome news!.

I was using Capcom as an example since they were in my mind at the time, any games developer can be guilty of this.gigastar said:
And I think I can be forgiven for forgetting about Asura's Wrath and Dragon Dogma since I haven't seen anything on the first for a long time now and I've personally never even heard of the second one...
Edit: Oh, and thanks for quoting me way out of context there. (Yes I know I used Capcom as an example, but the rest of my post was aimed generally at all developers).
