Old games getting HD re-releases: Good or bad?

Started by Cyner4 pages

If you guys are interested, Another World(Out of this World) was released on Steam recently. It's an old favorite of mine so I picked it up asap.

Pffft

i've had that game for a while on GOG, 15th and 20th anniversary edition.

The Gamecube remake of the first Resident Evil would look awesome as an HD re-release.

This is gonna be so awesome! I haven't played this in years, and now it's gonna be even sweeter!

Dolphin let me played it in HD before it was mainstream 131

I want Soul Reaver 1,2 and Defiance to be hd.
That would be sweet!

I want a HD release of Gameboy Tetris.

Be even better if they also released on a disc.

HD remakes are always a good thing.

No. Not always.

Especially when that's the only thing that's getting released

It was okay last gen when only a couple of them got released.

Exactly, it's a good thing and a bad thing. The bad thing happens when they try and revamp an old crappy title like Bionic Commando. You can dress shit up all you want but it will still be shit. There are a lot of great titles that if done correctly would turn out to be hits, like Fallout 3 was. I would love to see them do for Arcanum what they did for Fallout 3. That was an awesome PC game.

Sometimes I feel HD rereleases are a strategy to build up hate against companies that won't rerelease their beloved franchises.

"So why can't you revamp Chrono Cross Square-Enix? You afraid it won't sell?"

Too much work, they'd rather make loads by making people believe that they're getting something great, and then they go and release 3 failures back to back. People seem to fall for Final Fantasy because it has history. I pretty much refuse to play Final until they come up with something like FF 7, or FF 10. Square should drop Enix, and team up with Bethesda.

Enix > Square. At least Square post-Chrono team.

When FFXV flops every Square will release mobile games forever 👆
