Shadow of the Collosus Remake

Are you looking forward to it, will you be buying it on release, what are your hopes, expectations ect...
Have you 100% the original or HD version?

No new content no point in remaking with new graphics if its the same game you can play for a fraction of the price

Betcha its like kingdom hearts ans ff7 so ill wait for my Xbox release

This has got to be the holy trinity of overrated fucking games. They're boring and control like shit. And the stories are lame and pretentious. They insist upon themselves way too fucking much. I bet TLG is just as trash.

is it actually a remake or is it just a prettied up port?

>holy trinity of overrated games
>admits to having not played TLG

>none of the cut content implemented
>game has already gotten a graphical makeover last generation

No fuck you I'm not buying it. Fuck you. Make something new. Last Guardian was a disappointment, so the least you can do is improve your studio's best game, but you won't even do that. You'll just shit out the same thing looking a bit better and expect that to be good enough.

Eat SHIT

If they make the controls actually usable this time I might pick it up.

looks like new assets to me. I welcome it, but why won't they include any of those scrapped colossi?

So, the same can be applied to Resident Evil HD remake?

It's only a holy trinity if there are four items.

remake look at OP's official vid.
They have already said no new collosi, but modernized control settings, but everything else is remade assets.
remember too that the original, all cutscenes were done in engine, so what we see in the official vid is what we are gonna get

>trinity
>only posts two games
Its a mene at this point isnt it

Of course I'll fucking buy it.
One of the best ps2 games I've played.

I'll consider it if they don't use the broken as fuck version they used for PS3

>Are you looking forward to it
No, it looks ugly. I'm very happy with the PS3 version.

>And the stories are lame and pretentious. They insist upon themselves way too fucking much
I think it's actually an example of a good vidya story. It lends just enough context to a simple quest of fighting large beasts. What the fuck do you even want?

Sure, if by look forward to it I'm waiting for it to not show up anywhere for a year then pop up with trailers and gameplay that'll tease us for another year before it releases.

it's a full remake, not a remaster or port

idk I think this will be out next year, look t the trailer, the assets look done, they are probably in alpha now.
They obviously didn't have to do any conceptual phase, and if they have reused all the sound from the original game that is another massive chunk of time taken out of development.

it's confirmed first half of 2018

Is it bad? I just got someone's old PS3, have never played either Ico or SoC and was thinking of getting them.

No, because Remake was a complete reimagining of the original game, not even mentioning the fact that it adds WAY more areas, more story elements, more bosses, etc.

Remake is LITERALLY the worse example you can use because it borderlines on what a Remake is, it makes you question what a Remake is.

Why you think gamers in general just need to say "Remake" and they know they are talking about Resident Evil 1?

If it's a full remake why the fuck didnt they add anything new like bosses that were cut for time

This, what's the fucking point of remaking the game when none of the other cut colossi would be put back into the game?

If they fix those god awful controls then I'm willing to pay 40 dollars for it no more

REmake is a perfect example of a remake, but let's not get bogged down in semantics.

You don't see many remasters of 5th gen games (with exceptions like Turok), because they've visually aged like shit. 6th gen games lend themselves to both remasters and remakes, but only if done right (still mad about FFX face models)

I suppose there is a remake and a reimaginining then.
REmake while it added new areas and combat mechanics, some of which were from RE2 and 3, it also reimagined the plot and dialogue.

>why the fuck didnt they add anything new like bosses that were cut for time
This is what would be ideal, I really want more collosi, but then bluepoint would have to create a lot of new assets and reimagine the game, the pacing, map, dialogue ect.
Something that they could never do without the original team, which does not exist anymore.
It's not like REmake either, fuedas work is very unique, like the language, atmosphere and art direction.

There's nothing wrong with the ps3 version, which can go up to native 1080p if the xmb is set to it. 720p is fine, though it should have been 60fps at 720p.

PS4 remake will be 1080p too. Without new content or adding the cut content. Full price vs the ps3 HD collection that also includes ico HD for 20 dollars and less. Wow, I love the ps4! For the neogaf drone gamer!

>remake
>HD port
>faggot trying to start flame war
1/10 made me reply

Did you miss the part where the game is being remade and not upscaled?

I'm expecting it to have improved controls and maybe some minor new content. The guy who directed SoTC did send the developers working on the remake a list of changes he wants made, so it's possible that they may implement some of them.

I only consider Ico to be overrated. SoTC deserves most of the praise it gets.

I think shadow of the colossus just needs new graphics and a bit more content. More life to the map around you, you know? Just a bit. If they manage to do that in a way that still gives you that isolated atmosphere, it will be good enough.

>improved controls
this is confirmed, also choice for classic controls, which I prefer. I hope there is a trpphy too by completing it with classic controls like REmake or grim fandango did with tank controls.
>The guy who directed SoTC did send the developers working on the remake a list of changes he wants made
I read this, but they didn't mention what he wanted changing.
Hopefully they listen to him, SotC is a really liked game and will probably do well in sales, unlike tLG which was just a meme game because it became vaporware.
he obviously has not fell out with sony so his professional advise should have been taken into consideration.

Same controls? If so, then fuck you.

alright buds lets play "who's that faggot?"

is it a PCbro, a Nintenbitch or a X(no games)bot

SotC is literally top 3 best PS2 games you spaz.

Looking forward to more people enjoying the game, but I already got my fill when it came out on PS3.

i see they're still using papyrus font

i thought this was a prey for the gods thread, which by the way, should have been called prey to the gods. who the fuck prays for gods

ive only played that one, what was wrong with it?

looking forward to this too, I like the idea of 3 bros quitting their corporate jobs and making a spiritual successor to SotC on their own.
Probably influenced the SotC remake too.

PC when?
