Yah they are doing it to cultivate new GOW fans on other platforms. More profit for Sony so nothing wrong

Another remaster series. And people are happy. Wtf is happening here?
Because they are great games? Some of these games are locked on the older consoles 2 gens ago. You get triggered over people getting excited for these games?

I use to be indifferent to remasters but now it's just getting sad. Way too many. Are modern games really that bad that it take rereleasing old games to make money?

On one hand I'm happy they are considering releasing PS2 era onwards to PC, on the other hand though we've been able to play PS2 era games via emulation for years at this point. So it really depends what they mean if it'll be a proper "Remaster" or just port.

Ascension was such a shit game. A real shame for the series. But I'll take a remaster of 1-2 any day!
Shit? As in Concord shit? Or SW Outlaws shit? Neah...
It was weaker than the others but still tremendous fun, set pieces and bosses.

If this is true and nothing is censored, it's a day one for me. I want to support good games even though they're remasters. Better than the GOW 2018/Ragnarok trash.

Oh no. Shit compared to the other GOW games, but infinitely better than Concord for sure.

In this case "shit" is an exaggeration; read it as "mediocre" or "a 6/10 game among 9/10 games"

You are all ragging on this because of all the censorship that will be applied......but what if they use modern technology to make the sex mini games fully interactive this time instead of just a few button presses......if they can show that buff dude in The Last of Us Pt.II getting done in the wrong un' then why not Kratos spreading his seed.Fingers crossed,lol.

It will be probably day 1 on PC.

Sony is slowly changing PlayStation into Remaster/RemakeStation. What’s next? They seem to be very cautious in terms of new things and after concord fiasco they might be even more.

It's waste of time to continuously relive the past. Why buy a new console when the same games come out over and over again? If you haven't played these games before, which I highly doubt considering we are on a gaming oriented forum, then sure. Unlucky for you if you've missed them before. They are still available if you look a little harder and you can play them in their original state.
 
Some of these games are 25 years old, they have a whole fucking market that's never played them before, remake the fuck out of them new games suck.

When the series are blocked in different gen, yeah I mean is normal to be happy not everyone have 3/4 gens worth in consoles to play around...
The problem are not the remasters, the problem is the reason why there are remasters are made, people buy since there is no way to play old PS2/3 games.

The main reason for the remasters is to bring their games over to new (PC) platform, for an entirely new audience who have likely never play them on console before.

If it wasn't modern Sony I'd be on cloud nine right now as the original trilogy are my favourite games in the series by far but then you just know they'll remove any form of nudity and excesive gore or dialogue to not offend the snowflakes slowly changing the games...so I'm just taking a wait and see approach with this for now until they show something.
 
You know what would be good?

Ps2 games: GoW 1, 2
Psp games: Ghost of Sparta, Chains of Olympus.

Those four games receive a remaster-remake treatment to make them look like the GoW 3 remaster on Ps4, or better bearing in mind that Ps5 remaster should aim for 4k, 60fps.

If I have to choose, I'd love to see Ghost of Sparta with the graphics of GoW3.

Awesome news. I already own all four and can play them on PS3 (and GoW3 on PS5) but I love old school God of War and would buy a remastered collection on PS5 ASAP.
 
I love Gravity Rush as well but Gravity Rush Remastered and Gravity Rush 2 already run perfectly fine on PS5 with the PS4 Pro enhancements in backwards compatibility. Gravity Rush is an extremely niche game, as well. Edit: I misread the source; The only verifiable sales figures are for GR2, at 2m sold.

The God of War games — with exception to 3 Remastered — are stuck on PS3 and only playable if one has an actual PS3 or if they pay the ridiculous sum for PS+ Premium (and lives in a place where the game streaming is available). The original GoW sold crazy amounts and was a staple franchise so I can understand why they’d prioritize it over more niche titles.
What's your definition of perfectly fine? Bloodborne and GR2 are stuck at 30fps, while GRR is 60fps but stuck at 1080p. A couple of quick patches would allow these games to reach 4k 60fps or at least 1440p 60fps relatively easily and they could charge like $30 for new owners and like a $10 upgrade fee for existing owners. Easy money for easy work.

And how much debt.... (Nintendo have none)
Why would that matter? The USA has tons of debt too but it's still the best country in the world. Or...Apple has even more debt than Sony but its still widely viewed as one of the most valuable companies in the world. You do realize you can leverage debt too.

Man, I miss the times when virtually all games coming out were actually new IPs/sequels/spin-offs... Times when taking a risk was expected and - if executed competently - rewarded in full.
What if companies are using the profits made from remasters to help fund for a new IP? That's also another viable business strategy.

I honestly don't get this "cut for modern audiences" bullshit, so we can't have Kratos bangin heurs but it's "so progressive and inclusive" to have LGBT and-the-other-morons banging away in games??

Sony will be inviting an absolute shitstorm if they remaster these and cut them in anyway, just put a big warning on the front that states "This is Kratos, if you can't handle 110% 00's masculinity, then fuck off to your safe space and cry into your tofu" or go whine about it on Reeeeee

My kid loves the modern GOW games and has played GOW3 on the PS4 and these would be right up his street cause he identifys as a fucking normal teenage boy

If they were remakes with modern graphics and QOL improvements, maybe cutting and adding here and there, while simultaneously not adapting the story for ‘modern audiences’, I’d be very interested.

nixxes was always intended to remaster/remake games... Wtf how are some of you surprised.

It's not Santa Monica not producing a new game due to remaking a game. Lol

Ascension is one of the best in the series. The combat system is the best it has ever been especially with the grapple moveset and meter. People who say otherwise are probably the ones who play it for the spectacle setpieces ( which funny enough, Ascension has a ton of ) or who mash square square triangle. The trials of archimedes were ace before the notorious patch which dumbed down the difficulty. Also, don’t see this mentioned enough but enemy variety is off the charts in this game.

This will be a day 1 for me if Ascension is in. Was planning 3 months of ps plus premium to play all the Gows besides some other stuff but might just hold off if this happens to be true.
