What if instead of making sequels to games...

What if instead of making sequels to games, game creators just remade the same games but with updated graphics every time technology improved? Do you think people would still buy them?

That's what already happens.

i would

It's just not the same.

What is every sports game ever made

It can be done well in certain cases though. Halo Anniversary was nicely done, I would buy more games that do that if they're games I enjoyed when I was younger.

I could understand incremental gameplay improvements, but just graphical improvements? Sounds like a shit timeline to me

>gta 5 for ps3
>gta 5 for ps4

I'm in your hearts, right?

I wonder if SM64s worlds would start to feel kind of small if you kept upping the graphics, improving draw distance and such.

what a world that would be, op

what if funny scream?

What if every game was just Tennis for Two but with better graphics?

HALF-Assed jobs like that might sell at first. People would catch on quickly, though. Repeat that cycle a few times and sales would start to plummet. ESpecially if the gameplay remains the same. Sure, they might buy the newest copy every seven years or so, but between those breakpoints they'll remain content with their older versions and generate no sales.

How did you know to jump in the painting?

Pretty sure there are signs that tell you.

fprp

Bet my bro he couldn't do it, but he actually did.

>mario 64 came out for the DS and not the 3DS
>the 3DS has OoT, MM, Starfox, and not mario 64

what the fuck

What if instead of coming up with new comic strip ideas, Jim David just published the pipe strip over and over again?

Shit, that's what's happening now. I blame consoles, since consoles are just hitting fucking refresh at this point, companies can make money farting out titles from previous generation. And hell, I don't blame them, it's a lot cheaper to polish a title with a degree of success than fart out a new IP and risk failure.

People often beg for HD remasters/remakes instead of sequels. I'll never get it.

Why the fuck do you want to play the same thing over and over when you could have something that improves over it?
It's just as bad as those soulless cashgrab director's cut movie remasters.

I can play the Crash trilogy anytime in my ps1, why the fuck should I be happy to buy the same game again? Crash is not back, he's just being milked. He will be back when he gets a new good game.
