That is hilarious.
 
This really isn't the type of game I need 60FPS in, this all trend trying to push 60FPS on every genre is just silly if we're talking about a fighting game or even a fast pace shooter then sure 60FPS should definitely be the acceptable standard but a slow paced action game? what's the point?; I would rather have them spending the extra resources on better textures/AA, I mean for this type of game 60FPS will be more about graphical fidelity than actual improvement in the gameplay anyway.

Also does anyone else find it odd that a first party studio will just come out and say their targeting a certain graphical effect? it's like saying we want to but the console just isn't powerful enough.

No, it's like saying the game isn't done yet and still needs to optimized to ensure a locked 60 FPS.

Under promise and over deliver.

Still haven't played it and I bought the Special Edition with the artbook and steelbook. I'll play it now that it's on PS4 and just double dip.
 
60 bucks....

Thank you SO much for rewarding my purchase of the full game + left behind with an immediate upgraded re-release of the same game that will cost me full price again to enjoy...that's so very swell of you to do, ND.

You already played and enjoyed the game at full price, and you can enjoy the game as many times as you like with the version you bought, at no extra cost. No one is forcing you to buy the remastered version.

Suddenly the experience you had of playing the game is nullified because a new version gets released?

Come on BOB. The poor banana stopped laughing a long time ago! :)

I will pick it up again sometime, if they offer like $20 off day one upgrade for PS3 digital I would day one it even if they made me give up the rights to the ps3 version like FF14, or maybe if they run $10 back promotion. Really depends on how good the new mode is. It already plays great with the DS4 on PS3 with full DS4 support should be even better.
 
How often does a pub release a game a year later with all the DLC and with substantial improvements? Because I feel duped. I bought a PS3 for the game then not only do they rerelease the game but its full price. Without a discount for anyone who already bought the game and the season pass.

And I don't even know if there will be a sequel because Sony is so damn coy about it.

$60 = Full game + $20 worth of DLC + next gen improvements in graphics, presentation at no additional cost compared to original.

Seems fair to me, regardless of original purchase.

I was not expecting full price. I'll preorder to get the bonus material, but probably last minute. I want to wait for some kind of discount or promo to take some of the sting off that. PEACE.

I don't think we should let publishers rerelease games within a year of release for 60 bucks. The graphical upgrade doesn't make it suddenly ok.

Forcing people to play MP for weeks and possibly failing if they lose population is God Damn annoying.

So no, they are bad. Awful.

Believe me when it comes to MP trophies i despise them but in the case with TLOU you just save the easy challenges for when the 100% population risks strikes. You could be on the losing team for every match and still make it past the 12 weeks as long as you don't fail on the 100% risks.

Guess it helps i fucking love this game.

Considering this is one of the greatest games ever made, Ill let it slide.

Only other game pay full price for a next gen remaster so soon is Bioshock Infinite + DLC

Its my second favorite game of the entire generation but quality plays no part in the argument imo.

Yeah we shouldn't! I'll be atansing right behind your boycott against the evil corporation Sony controlled by evil men like Neil Druckmann!

Pretty often, actually. They're usually called game of the year editions, though, and they rarely have graphical updates.

Don't worry, I'll vouch for them.

Yeah this is not a new thing, GotY Editions come out all the fucking time.

The guy above me beat me to the punch.

It's remastered, not a remake

They did mention they want to challenge themselves with this project. Adding new enemies, even if they're just new skins, would certainly be a challenge given the timeframe.

Honestly, if I could ask for one thing, it would be to
include the sweet three way combat from left behind in the normal game.
 
I don't get the price argument. You're getting a very recent release with a ton of content for the price of a regular game. If you already have it for PS3 or you don't feel the price is fair, then vote with your wallet or wait for it to go cheaper. Nothing about this new version takes away from the one you already own, or devalues it in any way.

It's kinda understandable why it's not in the game -
tactically the correct way to go about it is to wait until battling sides kill each other then finish off those who remain standing. Not exactly splendid gaming mechanic.

Do I win a prize for talking about my penis on the Internet???
I own a PS3 and for some strange reason have never played TLoU. When it came out I was crazy busy and/or broke as f*ck. Anywho I was planning on getting a PS4 late summer/early fall so this is pretty much perfect for me.

Are those usually full priced though? And do they come out within a year of release?

Not always, but then again they're mostly just bundle deals with DLC. There's no additional effort put in - just a new package. Paying a $20 premium seems like a decent way to show that we appreciate and will reward this extra effort.

You don't have to like it. You don't even have to buy it. But this isn't that new.

I'll definitely pick this up when the price drops a bit. I'm hoping ND also releases an Uncharted Trilogy Compilation for PS4.

I'd think the flow of combat could be tuned appropriately to avoid this.
I know this wasn't exactly what I did in the DLC - I struck during the battles to take out the dangerous guys while they were preoccupied.

I hope GAF will strip The Last of Us of it's GOTY title.

And when the Journey PS4 port is announced, that that too will lose the GOTY title for its respective year.

It's a disgusting practice and anyone that is buying this game again is a horrible human being, even though 60 fps is the best thing that has ever happened to video games OMG OMG OMG.
 
PS4 version will have the new difficulty, right?

It would be great if ND can implement a scanning system to see if a user has already played TLoU on the PS3 and has completed it, then all the difficulties are unlocked from the start on the PS4.

Should films lose their Oscar status when remastered for Blu-ray?

What a stupid post.

So much hyperbole going on with this release. Its price has been compared to anal rape. If people dare spend an amount they approve for something they enjoy they are now "horrible people."

So judgmental on how people choose to spend money on their entertainment.

Strange to me.

I went to target and they had a fucking pallet of PS4s

they need to get adverts for this game in stores

the people who would go out and buy a system (potentially) 4 months in advance most likely already know about this. don't think having in store ads this early would push sales...
