Can anybody confirm if their will be a retail release for PS4 NA?
Resident Evil HD Remaster confirmed for PS3/PS4/360/XB1/PC
- Thread starter Mpl90
- Start date
They're remastering the Gamecube game, not the PSOne game.

There's a black switch in the top left corner of both screenshots that serves as a point of reference. The map should be seen on both screenshots, but it's not. That item is not there in the original game.
edit: Ah, I just got what you were saying. Alright.

There better be. Fuck digital.
Only retail so far is JAP PS3. Just like with RE4/RE:CV
So if you absolutely want retail, like me, play-asia is your friend.
No, neither japan will get PS4 retail version. Disc version is PS3 only.

I kinda expected that they would just upscale the backgrounds. Oh well, I'm just excited that this is finally coming. I don't have my GameCube anymore so it will be nice to play this on a modern system. I've been yearning to play this for so long. Hopefully they port RE0 as well.

I took a shot in dolphin, cropped it, added noise like they seem to be using, and change the hues to be a similar color. This is all stuff that would be pretty trivial to do real time in game.
It seems like they're adding a LOT of contrast to the backgrounds. What used to be noticeable details before is now flat blacks in this new HD one.
The character's textures seem much improved though.
Can you verify your dolphin settings?

I suppose Nintendo will be fine with releasing a Gamecube/Wii Virtual Console version.
oh Nintendo/Capcom. Please get along.

For these examples, I rendered at 1280x960 then cropped it down to match the aspect ratio.
4xSSAA (so basically bullshotting the models). AF disabled as it causes a texture seam bug (Also, AF won't benefit this game since backgrounds are prerendered and you don't really get harsh angles on the models).

Great news! One of my favorite games of all time. Hopefully RE0 will be given this treatment as well.
Thanks for taking the time to post those comparison shots. Much more of an improvement than I expected.

Does his leak of this have anything to do with his Twitter account being suspended?
Isn't Resident Evil 0 a 3D rendered game? It won't need it anywhere near as much as REMake would.

You're talking about QLOC, trust. They will make sure that there's an option for 60FPS

What a let down. This game deserves better.
Nasty upscaling of the background assets. Chopped up aspect ratio.
It's like that botched restoration of a Jesus painting.
Edit: here it is.

Zero is all pre-rendered as well.

No Zero is still just as 2D as Remake is. However alot of the background animations were improved massively in Zero to make it "look" more 3D then Remake did.

I'll grab this for $20, unless they really manage to fuck it up. Don't really care if the IQ is off somewhat if it means I can keep REmake around in my Steam library after the ol' GameCube finally kicks the bucket.

The zombies are much more scarier now :O
Ok that's it... there is clearly an improvement from these Comparison gifs.

Are you kidding me? MANY were asking for this for YEARS....

Hype Train conductor. Works harder than it steams.
But they did, people have been begging for this and it was mentioned multiple times in the "what games you want remastered" thread.

I'm hyped as hell for this. REmake is the best in the series without question. In my humble opinion anyway.

G***n S**n*bi
Will this be 60fps?

No RE0 is pre-rendered just like REmake, I hope they bring that over too.

There doesn't appear to be much of a difference from a technical (graphic) standpoint.

For what it's worth, the reason the GC screenshot looks so crummy is the games motion blur. It's not great implementation, but in motion it doesn't look that assy. The new version seems to have thankfully disabled it.
No, which makes sense, since the backgrounds were made with 30 fps in mind.

Actually the reason it looks that much better there is because the "remaster" looks like it's missing the motion blur effect.
In the other shots, the prerendered backgrounds look noticeably worse.
This is very sad.
Maybe they did lose the original assets after all.

Excited for this, although a little bummed it's digital only.
No it says 30 on the official site.

Breh... I cant
Made some comparison gifs.
Crushed whites and blacks, over sharpened, and upresed. Lighting and models look a little better, but that's some ugly overall IQ.
Why not put in the 1996 color banding while they're at it?

Please God let this sell MASSIVELY well and maybe Capcom will FINALLY REmake Resident Evil 2!
I'm definitely in for PS4 version and maybe PC version. If the PS3 retail version looks nice though I may have to grab that for collections sake.

hopefully, though in truth I think the real reason for the delay is because Capcom likely lost the translation for all the games text and has to re-localize it lol.

probably not given that none of the prerendered backdrops "play" at anything above 30fps. I'm sure that the pc version will either have the option or have ppl mod for it but it's going to look jarring if they do.

Something I've been meaning to point out. I think these are bullshots. In the 'sharpened filter' images people have been quoting, like this one:
Notice how Chris has the exact same effect applied over him like the rest of the screenshot? The image was edited, not the background, and this applies to multiple screens showed here. I think they're bullshots. A pre-render background filter wouldn't effect 3D models, also the game used 3D lighting, so why would the 3D lighting have an image effect of the pre-render backdrops?
That shot in particular looks HORRIBLE. I hope its bullshot.
I don't think a lot of people here expect Capcom to completely redo the game (maybe some do). What I would like to see is the original source material rerendered at a higher resolution.
Its possible that the original scene files are gone, but we do know that they had them when working on Umbrella Chronicles. That was 7 years ago of course, but it shows that Capcom did indeed have some archival process in place. If they bothered to archive it in the first place, it would be short-sighted of them to throw them away after that. Plus they clearly used the old character models as a base for the remaster, so they kept those around somehow.
I guess there is a matter of what file format the originals are stored in and the software used to render them back in the early 2000s. But i'd imagine its probably in something fairly standard that could be loaded in a more modern 3d package. Or they could write a script to load an unusual file format.
I'm more inclined to believe that it was something they decided they won't do as opposed to something they can't do. It would take time and money to rerender the scenes but I don't think that its ureasonable to expect that an HD remaster be done right (as in rendered in actual HD).
