![]() A remaster is only effective if the original game looks like a whole new game with the re release, and the Homeworld Remastered Collection is a fantastic example of this! It doesn’t hurt that it is priced at what a remaster should be. I have waited for GOTY editions of games to hit, I’m still waiting for the Mass Effect GOTY trilogy before I bite for example.Īll this being said, there are games that deserve and could use a remaster and would seriously benefit from it (I’m looking at you Final Fantasy VII). Borderlands The Handsome Collection is coming out a year after The Pre-Sequel as an HD remaster of Borderlands 2 and Borderlands the Pre-Sequel. There are a few exceptions, the Kingdom Hearts HD remakes for example. ![]() Game of the Year editions aren’t quite the same in my eyes, yes they re release the game with all of the DLC available, however, there is no graphical upgrade, nor is there usually any general improvements or content that was not available from the original release, aside from the DLC to the game itself. Not even PC gamers are immune from this as From Software won’t even patch the PC version to give it the upgrades and enhancements without players spending a bit more money. So people may have already spent as much as $90 to get the full experience of Dark Souls 2, only to find out that From Software/Bandai Namco is going to release the game at the full $60 price with everything included. On top of that, we find out that usually ALL of the DLC is also included along with these new versions. Instead they spit in the face of people who purchased the original game just over a year ago by waiting eight months to announce that it was also coming to a new generation of consoles. Why couldn’t they come out with the Xbox One and PS4 editions of Dark Souls 2 last March? Or at the very least announce that it was coming to current generation consoles when they released the original game? Give the gamer the opportunity to decide on which edition to get. From Software is a great example of this. Gaming companies need to treat their fans better than what we are getting now. Is it really worth gamers buying games if the publisher is only going to turn around and release an enhanced version a year later? Especially at a price that is at or close to the cost of a new game? What about games that have been released on the last 2 generations and coming out now *ahem* Final Fantasy X/X2 HD Remastered. Is it healthy for the gaming industry to release games that appeared on last gen consoles this generation? Especially only a year out? *ahem* Dark Souls 2 *ahem* The Last of Us. HD remakes have been coming out seemingly faster than new, unique gaming titles. The competitive multiplayer modes for both Homeworld and Homeworld 2 have been combined into one centralized mode that will allow you access to content (races, maps and game modes) and improvements, features and technology from both games, allowing you to play unlimited competitive multiplayer space battles on an epic scale.A small rant on remastered games and how game companies are treating their fans.
