is Sony now also creatively bankrupt? I mean come on how many games do they want to remake? Release the HD collection together with the third part for current systems and put your devs on something new, the games are perfectly playable even by today standards...

Is (every movie company ever made) creatively bankrupt, i mean come on how many movies do they want to remaster? I bought die hard on bluray just a decade ago, and now they release it with a new remastered scan on uhd?!

It's really pathetic, bringing their old things to modern platforms. Everyone should just not be able to enjoy the games because I personally already played them on ps2

The person you're replying to said they should re-release it on current systems, though? And remastering movies is a hell of a lot less work than remastering games...

Remastering movies is a lot more work than you think it is. Here's a look at what went into the excellent Jaws remaster https://youtu.be/Lcn06rKJn4s?si=DrpbfXV5eZoseB8g - here's another looking into all the work that went into the wonderful Dracula remaster for uhd https://youtu.be/7nZXJddaTXA?si=zUZLj17lqV1ORnfa

What do you think a remaster is? Op is complaining about them "remaking" it, which isn't correct. Their main claim is that sony is "creatively bankrupt" for remastering old games whilst also making new games

My comparison to the movie industry is apt.
