    I guess AAA studios are hollywood now. Unable to create something new, put a new coat of paint on something from the attic. Milk the audience with nostalgia.

        Such a thin line, but that’s exactly what I’m saying. That on top of stop charging full new game price for something that I played 10+ years ago that’s only a remaster.

      Now? They do that all the time, in fact Hollywood do this since I don’t know, the 50s?

          The time of release is kind of irrelevant. They’re working hard on a new game.

          Having said that, it’s the same game with a different story, so… Neither side has much of a point. 😆

        My comment isn’t just about Rockstar, although they did also do some milking with GTA3 as well. Recently there was TES IV, plus all the Skyrim editions, from Bethesda. Now Gears of War is getting a remaster. In recent years, remakes and remasters from AAAs seem to have increased. Last of Us is another example.

        And to be clear, I’m not necessarily against the remakes/maintaining the classics to be playable on modern hardware. Really, it’s the price tags.
