Yeah, good point. Sony can convert Xbox 360 fans and in turn, earn money in the process. It's not like The Last of Us is a bad game, either. Once new players have a taste of this, they might be willing to buy super ports of Uncharted and other games, too.TiberiusEsuriens said:
The Last of Us Remastered for PS4 Leaks on PlayStation Store - Update
- Thread starter Alex Co
- Start date
Give me one good reason to come back to this game! Developer commentary with the Creative Director and the lead actors? ... Alright that might work. Thank goodness I haven't bought it on PS3 otherwise I'd be agreeing with how blatantly pathetic this is.
So will this version have all the features they got rid of from the gameplay demo's they were showing prior to release?
I want to get this...but it's probably coming out around the same time as Watch_Dogs (by around the same time, I mean within a month or two). All the negative Watch_Dogs PR has been worrying me slightly, as well as the speculation over the game shown at E3 2012 not being the same one that we'll be sold.
Tempted to cancel my preorder for that, and get The Last of Us instead. At least I know what I'm getting with The Last of Us...but at the same time, I don't know what I could be missing with Watch_Dogs.

Go figure huh...JimmyPage666 said:
I am one of the few that got so annoyed at the terrible gameplay/save system I couldn't stomach the campaign. So I won't be buying it again.
So does this mean the human AI will improve?! Cause I'd like the human AI to improve, like what was shown to us at E3... no... just slightly buffing already great for the PS3 graphics?...
ok... yay?
ok... yay?
Same. All aboard the "supporting horrible industry practices" train!Casual Shinji said:
I've never regretted buying a good game twice. Besides, when the Last of Us came out all the comments were "why are Sony releasing new franchise at that end of the ps3's life? A game like this would get me to buy a ps4". And now its on both and the comments are "this game isn't a year old!" People will complain about anything
Well I'm not going to buy this one - only because the game is one I've played and I didn't care for it enough to play it a fourth time, and if I get the urge I've got it on disk.
I am, however, hoping that several games from the PS3 old and new get a face-lift and ported over to the PS4 even if I do have to re-buy them - favorites of course - because I know my PS3 isn't going to last forever (already on my second one here, the lasers give out if you don't pamper them and you happen to be a smoker in a small room) and I love replaying my favorites - I'd love to do it in better pretties on the new system when I convert (which should be right around when Dragon Age Inquisition comes around).

It is a bit odd, I couldn't care less. I didn't care much for Last of Us, and I think it's silly to come out with a next gen port so soon. I can see why they are doing it, but that does not make it great.Vault101 said:
OT: Usually love the idea of remakes, but just like jokes about flight 370, it's just too soon. >.>

agreed. this is basically "you already own the game but here you have to pay full retail price again to have it in a slightly fancier box.
well, if you smoke in same room that you run your electrinics, once they break try opening them. you may quit smoking once you realize this is how your lungs look like too. also dont bother getting them fixed either, no self respecting repairman will touch that mess. baiscally you detroy your electronics by smoking in same room.Mylinkay Asdara said:

it is graphically dated. its impossible to not be graphically dated while using obsolete hardware. not that its going to be much of an improvement by using slightly less obsolete hardware though.Legion said:
These forums do seem a bit bipolar at times, don't they?Vault101 said:
OT: I never picked this up on the PS3. I was really busy around when it came out and never ended up getting it. Might as well pick it up on the PS4.
I don't understand, were they planning on doing this all along? With the Tomb Raider remake at least they already had a graphically superior version of the game in the form of the PC version to work off of. But The Last of Us was exclusive to the PS3 so I have to assume that the game was only designed with PS3 hardware in mind. It seems like improving the graphics of the game to take full advantage of the PS4's power would be something that would take a long time, and as you've pointed out it hasn't been that long.Hero of Lime said:
So basically either this'll be a shitty port that barely improves upon the PS3 version, or they've been planning to make it for PS4 all along and just didn't tell anyone because they didn't want people to hold out on buying it for PS3.
Either way it makes me sick to think some people will probably rebuy this game a second time, please don't, people.
Also, just another reason to not buy on release. Seriously, nobody with half a brain should still be doing that. By the time I buy a game it usually has several sequels out already, and because of that (along with steam sales)I can usually get a terrific game for 10 dollars or less. And there's a big enough back catalogue out there that you never have to worry about having nothing new to try either. I'm not saying everyone should be as patient as me, but always wait at least a little while. I bet many people who bought TLoU on PS3 who now own PS4s are kicking themselves.
I got TLoU on discount a couple of months ago, so the game's still fresh for me. Now, what would be lovely (and probably won't happen) is the "ps3 to ps4 upgrade" program that's been running for select titles where you can pay less if you own the game on ps3 already.
Why exactly is that? I bought movies I already owned on blu-ray for the simple fact that they look nicer. When Lord of the Rings came out on DVD, I bought the DVD's. When the Extended Editions came out on DVD, I bought them on DVD. When the blu-ray got released, I bought it on blu-ray. And when finally the Extended Edition came to blu-ray, I bought those too. It's the general geek way of life to buy things you don't really need, but you do it anyway because you love it so much.Olas said:
I don't understand this looking down on people for buying things they enjoy.
At least you can draw comfort out of how much better you are than everybody that buys games day one.
Yes, I knew that - I said that myself - no need to be confrontational about it. All the electronic bits still work fine, however, it's the laser that's given out and this is the second time it's happened. A friend of ours is going to pop it open and give it a shot with a replacement part but if that fails it's back to the store.Strazdas said:
However, I live in one room, you see, so all I own is in this room with me. That's just the state of things.
I remember when we got remastered versions of old classics and of games that aren't even a year old nor are they anything special.
It makes me sick to know there are people who will support this cancerous move by buying the same game a second time for full price.

Yes, if it came out this close to the release of the original, for full price, with a significant improvement in graphics, without people being told ahead of time that the PC version was being made. Perhaps you prefer playing games on PC but bought it on PS3 because you thought that was the only system it was being made for. I don't know, it feels like an attempt to sell the same game to you twice, and not even at a discount. If they were giving a discount to people who had purchased it already for PS3 somehow I think I'd be okay with it.bluegate said:
Now obviously lots of games get ported to PC, which is what I assume you're trying to hook me with, I own several. But usually the PC version is being made either concurrently or after the fact, and if it is being made after the fact it almost never sells for full price of the original, or at least that's how it used to work. The re-release of RE4 I bought for Wii only cost me 30$.
It's the geek way off life to let people take total advantage of you? Sorry, but I don't understand how it's great for fans to throw away their money on 5 versions of the same thing, you're being milked for cash. Just because you really like something, that shouldn't suddenly make it more acceptable for people to try and take advantage of you for it.Casual Shinji said:
And I'm not just a penny pincher when it comes to these things either, I bought the hardcover 50th anniversary edition of LOTR for 90$ because I thought it was really cool, but the 100th anniversary edition is still a ways off and it's doubtful there'll be a more definitive edition until then. I wouldn't have bought the 40th edition AND the 45th edition AND the 50th edition. It is possible to splurge every now and then without being totally irrational about it.
Yep, absolutely, or at least much smarter, and wealthier for it. And you know what I can do with the money I save? Spend it on other games I want. Don't get angry at me just because I don't make stupid purchasing decisions. Honestly, I would be more angry at the people trying to sell you things knowing full well they'll try to resell it to you again later, or trying to make you buy something before it's even come out.
