I understand the desire for publishers to focus more on new titles, but blockbusters keep the industry moving. It's like wanting an end to re-releasing old movies on Blu-ray, despite Star Wars and Marvel still keeping movie studios alive.
On another note, this is really smart for Sony as there are many 360 gamers who switched (will switch) to PS4 without ever owning a PS3.

Ask this 60fps news is distracting from the real upgrade! Where is my free mochilla!?
I would really like to see that. They would probably do that if they ever use the IP again.
GAF, I want to know what's going on with the cutscenes, will they be rerendered, will they be real-time, etc, bombard the man...

why do you feel that way? are you implying you wouldn't like your favourite PC titles to be remastered? not just mods, but full overhauls by the company themselves.
This edition was worth the wait. I'm glad I didn't need to wait until E3 to get confirmation. It's definitely worth just because I'll get to play it on the PS4 and no deal with the slowness of the PS3.
The multitasking capabilities + headset/dualshock 4 makes this a no doubt in my mind day 1 purchase. I'd rather pay for this PS4 version than getting a $20 copy of the PS3 version. I don't know about you guys but it's a night/day difference in terms of the console experience between the two. I love being able to instantly get in and out of games and navigating between apps quickly. On the PS3 after you start a game or get into the SEN store, it's delay and slowness everywhere. That alone I'm excited for as much as the 1080P and visual/gameplay improvements.
Very happy that we'll probably get GTA V too. There's been no word on Bioshock, but that would complete it for me. Three of some of the best games I didn't play last gen yet.

I'd actually like an option to play it in black and white for some reason.

Isn't this possible by changing the color settings of your TV to zero or something?

Oh man. I can't wait. Played the hell out of the PS3 version. Factions is going to be awesome.
I'll be double dipping for sure. Even at full price. The thought of playing the game
@1080p/60fps, with higher quality textures, and the dual shock 4 is enough for me.
The problem with many PS360 era games is that some great games were hindered by poor performance.
Give me Ratchet and Clank Future: A Crack in Time at 1080p/60, and I'll be in fucking heaven. I'd love to have these games remastered for PS4 along with The Last of Us:
1) The Ratchet Future trilogy
2) The inFAMOUS series
3) Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time
4) PlayStation All Stars Battle Royale
5) Starhawk and Warhawk
6) Ni No Kuni
7) Uncharted trilogy
8) Folklore
9) Killzone 2 and 3
10) PSN titles like the Pixeljunk Series, Fat Princess, and Journey.
And Demon's Souls, of course.
I would gladly, and with no restraint rebuy all of these on PS4. The improved performance and DS4 is worth it, for me. I plugged my DS4 into my PS3 and played some The Last of Us with it, and it felt so damn good. Cannot wait for this PS4 remaster. Those that aren't interested in HD remakes/remasters, and PS4 enhanced editions don't have to buy the titles, but for many of us, who either missed out on their original release, or just want to have a superior/definitive version of their games, this is great news, and a trend we don't mind.

No source, directly from game shops that got the release date from Sony. Sorry if my source is "not believable" but you guys will see if I'm right or wrong soon....it will release in mid June this year.
I mentioned it in another thread (the rumor thread), like last month. So....yeah I think you should get in line instead =/

Will pick it up with my PS4 when I get it some time this summer since I haven't played it yet.
I know I would have totally doubled dipped for Half-Life 1 with the Source engine way back in 2004. Its too late now for the mods to hold my attention.

Ehhh, I already had my thrills. It's funny that they had to say something because of their fuck up though lol. However, this is still good for those out there that have a PS4, never played it on the PS3 and finally get a chance to play it. Personally, I'll wait until it's $40 to play but to each their own.

$60? Nope. Great game for those who never played it.
Grounded was posted for free on youtube in full length by Sony themselves about a month ago or so.
By this reasoning, all remasters can be priced at $60, because there will always be someone who hasn't played the original version.
Anyways, this game does bundle in additional content that was not present in the original version and was paid DLC, GOTY editions that do that usually end up being sold for $40, but then they're not enhanced like this.
So basically, The Last Of Us Game Of The Year Edition with Left Behind DLC + Map packs would've cost $40 if they released it this summer, and they've done work on top of that, so that's where the extra $20 ($60 pricetag) is justified.
It's all a matter of whether you personally consider it worth it or not. I will be waiting till it hits $40, since I bought the ps3 version last year.

Tomb Raider performance levels would be fantastic. I'll take a locked 30 though over Infamous esque framerate.
So glad I waited for this

Oh, damn, yes I remember now lol
I only played it 7 times so you can understand ...
love your list, add MAG to that and we're golden. Do it Sony!!!! This is great news. I can finally sell my ps3 and unplayed copy of last of us.. Can't wait to play it with all the bells and whistles of ps4..
Wut?
I'm not getting this talk of TLOU cutscenes being pre-rendered. I was under the impression that they were being generated in real-time, but used higher quality assets as the conditions (angles, objects on screen, animation,etc ) were fixed, hence they could optimize more precisely with no surprises, the same concept used in the Uncharted series and the Arkham series.
Are they really pre rendered and just stuck on disc as movie files?
Also, I thought TLOU cutscenes were absolutely stunning, Ellie's facial expressions in particular, and I thought Left Behind even more impressive. How one can say
they looked terrible compared to gameplay.... I don't even...

It's still $399.
I also waited on Last of Us, expecting to grab a GotY edition for PS3. This is much nicer!

60 fps would be spectacular. Would get it day 1 regardless.

They biggest point being that they started this right after they shipped TLOU, which probably means they had this in the cards for a bit before that.
I think it's pretty smart and forward thinking on their part. Release on the platform that will sell fastest, then re-release on the new platform while it's still young and lacking quality competition.
Played and loved the game last year.
Really been wanting to get back into it and have a chance to play the DLC, but I'm terrified that this is the game that'll end up killing my PS3. My poor MGS system was struggling throughout, so this is a perfect alternative!

Just have to get a ps4 first....but at least I already have a vita and a nice backlog of PS+ games

It's worth the $60 for those who haven't played it especially with the DLC. Considering the amount of people who have a PS4 without having a PS3 they would be dumb to launch for any less than $60.
Amen to that. I stopped playing MP, great as it was/is, due to this. We shall see.
