I will play it again, specially because of the DLC and not having a decent computer.
Gamescom announcement, perhaps?

It's getting announced right now as October, which is 2 months from release. Why announce it as October then move it within that time frame? Makes zero sense. It's staying at that date.

I loved this game when I played it on PC, but are they really trying to charge full price for this game again?
I did play this on PC and honestly at the time it felt like the closest taste to what next gen would be like. I'm sure it'll look and play fine. I just think it's blatant price gouging for a port that probably isn't costing them very much to do. That and the DLC was nothing special.

$60? Nope.
This will be selling for under $40 in a month.

People will ask this for each full priced game that's essentially an upres, especially when that game can be experienced in its "Definitive Edition" form for like $10-15.

Didn't realise it was full price. Tomb Raider wasn't, was it?
Maybe people who didn't play it last-gen want to play it. Maybe even people who did play it last-gen wouldn't mind replaying it. Hey, maybe Square Enix want to get it out there to more gamers before the sequel or Triad Wars or whatever comes out.

IMO the release schedules for current gen are pretty barren, and many games are delayed so they pump out remasters just to release something. I wouldn't mind them if they weren't full price like newly developed games. 60 bucks is a joke.

What?
Since when is that happening? Did I miss something?
I used to be like you. But this is too much. Too many remasters.
I do get that it is easy to port a game. Entire 2014 is delays after delays and too many remasters. Very few games like Evil Within and Destiny to look out to.

The game was good, but this?
No. If it was £25 I would understand. SE are going to be disappointed with the results. That also means Hitman Absolution is next.

This was the second game I ever platinumed, and I never played any of the DLC, but $60 for a remaster w/ DLC feels a little steep if there's not going to be ANY new content. Either an additional DLC-size content pack or a slightly lower price would make this a must-buy, but as it is, it'ls probably going to end up as a "somewhat begrudgingly buy."

Can't see myself pulling the trigger @ 60$.

Yeah, it's not like almost every generation before this had ports or anything like that.
Never happened. Nope.
The question "why?" is very appropriate in this instance though.
They're using the classic "over $X of DLC included!" bit to justify it. The game did have a lot of DLC, but the majority of it was strictly cosmetic, so it's hard to swallow.
Oh shit, I just saw the 60$ price tag, shameless.
That said, all these ''why?'' already have an answer, and it's money.
Not everybody would have had PS+ or Xbox Gold, many people might have just plain missed out on it in general, and those that did play it and loved it might be excited to experience it in 1080p(and hopefully 60fps).

Love this game.

I'd be shocked if GTAV wasn't also $60.

The Last of Us or better yet Master Chief Collection should be a standard bar for remasters. All current DLC, significant visual improvement not just res, something that can't easily be gotten on a single platform in a single purchase (either console only games or a collection of games not previously all on one console). MCC is a bit above and beyond in that there's redone cutscenes and all multiplayer maps with the preferred multiplayer gameplay (halo 2), but the "remastered trilogy/collection" is a nice angle.
It still looks great, too. Crank everything up as high as it'll go and throw it on a 3DTV for good measure and the game looks pretty stunning.
