looks like they fucked up the lighting m8
Jayden Lee
Among all the other shit they fucked up.
Parker Ortiz
Same as with Doom 3 BFE, Metro REDUX versions, etc :
"subtle" downgrades to make them work better on underpowered consoles, hoping no one will notice the difference and thus would buy the same game AGAIN, just because it says "remaster" on the cover.
Camden Torres
They took a game which was created using a highly customized Unreal 3 and ported it to vanilla Unreal 4.
Nolan Rogers
Has a remaster other than REmake ever actually been an improvement?
Tyler Wood
Post processing is finicky and breaks easily if you try to port it
They were lazy bums wanting to make a quick buck, not to do a proper port
Jason Morris
...
Brandon Moore
Nothing
One of those pictures is in game and one is pre rendered
Chase Martinez
And yet 9/10 times it looks worse than the versions on the previous gen consoles. It's always mind boggling. Same with the Ezio collection for Assassin's Creed.
Joseph Russell
That's not a pre-rendered cutscene, if I'm not mistaken you can even already control the camera
Austin Evans
you can control the camera in FNAF too
Hudson Russell
The Crash Bandicoot Remasters were amazing.
The God of War Remasters and the Sly Cooper Remasters were flawless.
The Final Fantasy and Kingdom Hearts Remasters aren't completely flawless but they're great and have a lot of added features that are good
But aside of those no, I cannot think of any good remasters.
Ryan Foster
REmake was not a "remaster", but a full blown remake. A product of love one at that.
There's been great HD remasters, such as practically all of the MGS HD ports, that did improve visuals, performance, even gameplay. Running PW at HD res, 60fps and dual-analog controls makes a huge difference.
Juan Morgan
The N-Sane trilogy is a full remake, technically
Cooper Allen
The Nathan Drake collection looks pretty dope even in 4K. Especially 2 and 3
Jackson Perry
If these weren't labeled I would have said the one on the right looks like what I would expect from a remaster.
Landon Hernandez
WWHD unless you're one of those "muh artstyle" fags
it looks good IMO and they fixed the god-awful triforce quest
the swift sail is cool too
Evan Kelly
look at 95% of all footage. the game looks much better. its specially selected stills that make it look worse. and admittedly, they probably didnt give a shit about a character like hugo strange. probably overlooked him in general in the remaster
Xavier King
>being a bloom+blur apologist
fags like you should be gassed.
>complaining about comfy sailing
ADHD should be a mortal sin worth a capital punishment as well.
Thomas Gomez
The game looks great dude. And it's not like the faster sailing deletes sailing altogether
Adam Brooks
it looks fucking great, come on
ww's artstyle is so good it works either way
>ADHD
i used the normal sail for 80% of the game
Michael Reed
the HD port looks fine AT TIMES, but mostly it is nothing but a downgrade and art-rape.
Aaron Long
youtube.com
What the actual fuck; the original looks better in 90% of cases.
Asher Gray
No
Leo Allen
Literally anything by BluePoint, like the MGS and Shadow of the Colossus/Ico collections
Ryan Garcia
Shadow of the Colossus is probably the biggest one. The game was practically unplayable on the PS2 with that ridiculous motion blur combined with an average of like 15 FPS. Especially bad in PAL territories where the frame rate was even shittier.
Basically everything done by Bluepoint has been good.
Zachary Ross
>i used the normal sail for 80% of the game
not refering just to the sailing, but fuckers complaining about chill as fuck triforce hunting.
Kids these days literally complain about having to DO stuff in games.
Kevin Green
I know this sounds like an excuse, but it seriously looks fantastic in person. When it was new, hate threads on Sup Forums kept reposting the same early build screenshots from its announcement, but Nintendo toned the bloom down for its release. I don't prefer one art style over the other. It's not an upgrade, but it's like a sidegrade, giving two unique experiences.
Jaxson Ward
Most PS2/GC/XB remasters are alright.
It's these (((remasters))) of PS3/360 games that are almost always fuckes up or change virtually nothing
Kevin Torres
yes. Especially indoor and dark areas are fucking butchered and turned into waxy claydoll animation
Nathaniel Adams
>it's boring and it's only there to pad time and disguise loading times
>BUT IT'S COMFYYYYYYYYYY
>WHY DO YOU HATE FUNNNNNNNNN
Charles Brown
You know Anouma literally apologized for the triforce hunt, right? It was filler they came up with at the last minute when they ran out of time to implement actual dungeons
Joseph Torres
>downgrade
jesus christ imagine thinking this
what OP posted is a downgrade, and an inexcusable one at that
the HD port is great (they could have done a better job in making it look closer to the original though, I'll give you that)
TP HD however is embarassing, it looks better on my fucking PC
not a downgrade but they did nothing at all, just made it 1080p
Carson Gutierrez
Yeah but, it IS rendered in-game you retard. Why would they remake an FMV to look worse instead of just upping the resolution/bitrate?
Juan Nelson
There are no pre rendered cutscenes in any of the Bamham games.
Lucas Garcia
Uncharted 2 remaster almost looks like a ps4 game
Wyatt Roberts
>You know Anouma literally apologized for the triforce hunt, right?
Yeah, and according to George Lucas, the force's caused by tiny microbes and Solo didn't shoot first. Does not make any of it right.
He had nothing to apologize for.
Kevin Edwards
Well that's a lie, the intro cutscene in Asylum is definitely one. I'm pretty sure there's more in Asylum since you can tell when playing on PC the game suddenly goes from crisp 4k 8xMSAA to 360p youtube quality.
Jace Perry
Dumb comparison, if Anouma admitted the hunt was an accident it's because people complained about it in the first place
Jayden Wilson
As someone who's only played 1 so far after getting the collection, even that could pass as one. Not its original iteration on the PS3 of course, but 1 on the PS4 looks fucking gorgeous
Isaiah Long
That doesn't look too b-
>finally look at the face
WTF
Austin Murphy
>he actually unironically liked the triforce quest
HAHAHAHAHA what the fuck
>kids these days
you realize this game came out well over 15 years ago right? no "kid" today was alive to play the original version
the triforce quest was objectively shit
Henry Sanchez
Where the fuck did these HD port shilling newfags come from? When the thing was revealed and released, no one had any sympathy for that bloomified, casualized trash it is.
>TP HD however is embarassing, it looks better on my fucking PC
obviously
>not a downgrade but they did nothing at all, just made it 1080p
Wrong. They did redo textures and even models in the HD port. Do more research, and go play the GC OG some day.
Austin Roberts
Dude you haven't seen the improvement 2 is on 1 then, you'll eat your words
Angel Barnes
After incredibly shitty ports of VII and VIII, they finally got their act together for the FF IX remaster.
It's actually great. All the visuals and cinematics are cleaned up, the character models are all redone but look totally authentic to their original counterparts and there are a number of helpful cheats/tools to speed through some of the more annoying random trash encounters and allows for completing Chocobo Hot & Cold at a less frustrating pace.
Noah Green
Nope, and you do realize that the HD port came out almost 4 years ago? That's enough time to have a whole new generation of Sup Forums nu-fags take over the site, it seems.
Dylan Carter
...
John Russell
The fact that you and a bunch of other nostalgiafags parrotted the same thing over and over doesn't mean you were actually convincing anyone that WWHD is shit
Gavin Kelly
Serious Sam
Ian Moore
>When the thing was revealed and released, no one had any sympathy for that bloomified, casualized trash it is.
Because Sup Forums jumped the gun. Then people finally tried it. And one change doesn't make it casualized.
Blake Bailey
>that "SILENT HILL RANCH" sign in comic sans
how do you fuck up a game THIS bad?
Parker Johnson
before anyone repeats the decade old meme,
no - it had nothing to do with the fact that the no-name port team used ancient alpha-code.
Matthew Murphy
>nostalgia as an argument
way to lose all credibility.
Anyone with any artistic eye and basic human patience would instantly realize that WWHD is terrible.
Liam Morris
How big companies handle remasters:
>Call Pajeet from Bangalore
>send him the compiled gamecode
>tell him to make this shit run on latest meme console
>him: "say no more my loo-nigga"
>reverse engineeres the pile of shit with minimal programming kownledge while squatting in shitting street and bathing in ganges
And the end result is every single big name remaster.
Brandon Reed
Those idiots developed the remaster from an unfinished beta, for all we know that sign was a placeholder put there by the original devs and the idiots didn't even notice. I refuse to believe using comic sans was anyone's active choice
Grayson Morris
RE4's is really good just slightly cleaned up for higher resolutions but no major changes to visuals, PC version even has option for gamecube textures. A few oddities can pop up at 60FPS though but it's nothing game breaking.
Turok 2 for the most part once you disable some of the shitty bloom effects that are enabled by default, it's better just in the fact it's not the 15FPS with insanely low FoV like the N64 and not a bitch to get working properly like the old PC port.
Andrew Hall
left looks better
Grayson Scott
pc STILL has the best version
James Green
Ico and Shadow of the Colossus were also perfect.
Matthew Lee
Well, all you're doing is screeching that the remaster ruined the original, what else should i call you? And you keep saying the game was casualized, the fuck are you talking about?
Henry Bell
>I refuse to believe using comic sans was anyone's active choice
i've seen it used in places where it shouldn't be so many times that i believe it was intentional
Ethan Cox
Do you have the info on how to play the best possible on pc?
Landon Butler
And you are doing exactly what your kind always does: ignores the given evidence, can't read the thread, and still pack awful eye for art.
>the fuck are you talkign about?
At least try to play the games you boast about, fag. Having to do less and being able to skip huge chunks of the OG game = casualized as fuck.
Austin Russell
Yes, the SH PC Guide + the DL links :
SH1 NTSC DDL:
mega.nz
SH2 DDL:
mega.nz
SH2 torrent:

SH2 Fixes site:

SH3 DDL:

SH4 DDL:

Mount the ISOs of 2 & 3, and then run their installers like always.
The SH1 is a PS1 rip that you gotta emulate.
The "sh2proxy" is a all-in-one fix, that works as a no-cd crack as well. It is included in the pack.
If you use the NEW fix mentioned in the guide, you can use the sh2proxy's EXE as the no-cd crack!
If you experience issues saving the game / not being able to edit the disp.ini, make sure the files aren't set to "Read Only", and run the game as Administrator.
If SH2 gets stuck in a black screen upon launch, close it and re-start it again.
If SH3 runs like shit even on a strong PC, check and lower the Rendering Resolution setting.
SH2-4 do not support Xinput & PS4 gamepads natively. Either use Xpadder, a DirectInput pad, or just play with KB+M.
There's OK emu-settings for SH1 in the guide. If the image of the game does NOT fill your entire screen in fullscreen mode, check your plugin AND GPU control panel's image scaling settings!
Try the PGXP emulator for a lot less wobbly PS1 graphics.
>Protips
-Play in release order
-Never play below Normal difficulty
-Replaying each of 'em is recommended
-Turn down the ingame Brightness setting to improve visuals and mood
-Don't try to kill everything that moves, especially outdoors
-Turning OFF the flashlight can really help YOU!
Caleb Murphy
>It's these (((remasters))) of PS3/360 games that are almost always fuckes up or change virtually nothing
Not really a surprise most of them are a quick cash grab the PS4's lack of BC is a major culprit for this trend.
Windwaker HD would actually look fine if Nintendo didn't go DUDE LOOK AT ALL THIS BLOOM LMAO, I'll deal with it because the super sail makes traveling so much less tedious also the bloom can be reduced on CEMU
Elijah Cook
>all these sonypoops thinking a simple res bump is "impressive" remastering
Tyler Collins
You're just treating your opinion as factual. And i still don't understand what was casualized, I've been in CG vs HD "debates" before but it's literally the first time i see anyone talking about that
Brandon Williams
the problem with WW HD isn't exactly the bloom, per se, but the fact that it does not use real celshading anymore, but heavily customized deferred shading with steep-cut to shadows. With bloom on top.
This results the smooth gradients and complete lack of cels in darker areas, with the too strong bloom washing thing out as well.
Dylan Thompson
This is a bit unfair of a cherry pick and this obviously only happens in certain lights. Mosto f the time you are not starting wei in the face near a broken lamp
Juan Phillips
This should be illegal
Matthew Phillips
What the actual fuck, did they rebuild it from the ground up?
Nathaniel Thomas
There's no one who loves Silent Hill more than me, fact.

oh wow user that screenshot really proved me wrong nevermind then
Ryan Parker

Carson Cox
Only on the X!
Benjamin Morris

Camden Powell
Huh, I'd heard that Konami had actually lost tons of the assets for the game and they had to remake a lot of it?
Kevin Hall
>"So it's okay?"
Its not okay, Maria. It will never be okay.
Parker Russell
Is this some sick meme? Why would you remaster something that doesnt even look old? Why not remaster something unplayble because how shit it looks like thief or deus ex.
Liam Hernandez
Konami didn't have the finalized games in files format, so since Huelett and friends were either too incompetent or lazy to reverse-engineer the released versions they resorted to working on unfinished code, which as they explained meant they had to do extra work fixing problems and bugs that weren't supposed to be there
Carson Hill
To trick idiots into buying the same shit over and over again because, supposedly, it keeps getting better one way or the other
Noah Bennett
Kevin Ross
Oh I see, good to know cheers!
Adrian Green
It doesn't end there though.
Because Jewnami were fucking morons and unwilling to pay the old VAs and devs any royalties for re-using their original scores, they instead hired new actors and remade the soundtracks from scratch. And all of that new audio ended up being even worse than the visual downgrades.
The dickhead in charge of the project also hates everything but SH2, and originally wanted to make his own personal remake of that game, but this was not allowed to do it. None the less, he sneakily tried to push in some minor script changes of his own.
Anyways, the SH "HD" "Collection" is THE most legendary major blunder of the millennia so far. It's so bad, even the original Team-Silent members hate it.
Noah Perez
bunch of jews
Nathan Myers
Black Mesa?
Thomas Rivera

John Harris
Oh definitive is not even a big difference graphically but adds some extra shit. I think the trade off is def worth.
God i love this game and in Def addtion you can run around as sun wu kong with a magic staff and cloud smacking people.

There is no way these labels aren't just swapped, the original arkham didn't look that good

I Ocarina of Time on Gamecube was an absolutely minuscule improvement, but it was an improvement.
Christian Scott
skyrim
it looks like a new game, only remaster worth 60$
Jayden Jones
Okami had a good remaster from what I heard and the videos I've seen.
Logan Sanchez
>another remaster that fucks up basic shit like lighting
Is it really that hard to just get the old game and improve graphics? No idea but it's always amusing to see the new version look like shit.
