How hard is it to look at the original game while you remake it instead of just going purely by memory or what you wrote down on a piece of paper? Based on shit like this impossible.
They're UE babbies using stock assets and piling on effects. When it comes to actually making something themselves they can't do shit.

I was unironically close to buying a 360 just to play the PD64 port online. I hope they release it again on some system.
wow you unironically almost did something?
Don't ever respond to any of my posts again.
probably the most assertive you've ever been in your life (unironically)
just emulate it anon
You can literally play it on any Xbox released after the 360. You could find a bargain bin Xbox One and play it for fricks sake.
I haven't played Perfect Fart in over 20 years.
The only part I remember was the annoying alien guy rescue.
What ever happened to that new Perfect Dark that was announced 2 years ago?
So you sayin' we was KANGZ or some shid?
Microsoft is a disaster that can't manage a project to save their lives
It's Microsoft so you know it's in development hell with the only two options being cancellation or botched release.
That's just how MS works

Microsoft is really bad at creating studios and all of their projects seem to be struggling. You can gather up all the best talent in the world like it's the fricking Avengers but if they have zero team chemistry or a unified vision it's no wonder all their games get stuck in development hell or end up in the trash
You didn't buy Battletoads so that means you don't care about Rare games obviously.
Rare can crash and burn for all I care. They were always overrated.
who cares. nothing to do with the original devs
What is it about remake/remasters that lack soul? Is it because remaking someone else's work isn't fun?
Only good one I can think of is trials of mana.
if the remaster/remake isn't handled by the original developers then it's basically nothing more than a contract job for some developers that don't really give a rat's ass about the original
If it's a remake/port then it's usually the publisher trashed the source code and assets so some third rate team in India has to build things from scratch and just make it work because we have a Christmas deadline okay. Old engines even with source code also just can't go straight into a new architecture without putting out some effort which a cheap outsource won't do. If it's a true remake then it's generally the original art team isn't there (and once again they've hired some random contractors from overseas) and there's a desire to do work for the sake of doing work to justify the contract. Humans also always like adding their own mark to anything they touch like bathroom stalls so egos will come into play and new blood will want to shift things to make it look more like their work. There can be also modern art shifts that are worse than the original style that are more trendy than timeless that someone demands be put in, and modern game design is much more about the buying and reusing of assets and engines and cutting corners where you can in the wrong way. A game from the PS1 era may have prerendered backgrounds that have huge amount of detail like a painting so when a modern developer wants to tackle say a kitchen that was in the previous game they'll just throw around some unreal or unity food assets and a wooden table because "Why waste effort on an area the players will pass through quickly" so something that looked lived in, natural and highly detailed now is a generic kitchen room asset $5.00s for license.
There's more shit that can go wrong, but at the end of the day soul is the culmination of the atmosphere that evolved from the effort and charm of the synergy of the developers at the time. Your human brain is really good at picking up small things, if a single book is out of place in a shelf over the span of years it can add enough difference to snowball you into depression. So you easily pick up flaws in a remake which are more obvious.
A big problem with the GTA "remaster" was it wasn't even based on the original games, the already inexperienced team were given the code to the mobile ports from the early 2010s, themselves already heavily truncated and altered.

HNNNNNNG
the arkham collection must be up there with some of the worst remasters ever made. complete botch job.
Nice try anon. This is a pic taken from the Arkham City Redux texture mod from the same author as Asylum Reborn. It actually doesn't suck and looks really good
https://www.nexusmods.com/batmanarkhamcity/mods/407
literally cant tell the difference
Because it's just a mod and it's basically comparing normal maps on this pic. You can see there's a bit more detail, more depth to the textures.
all they needed to do was up the resolution and the framerate. instead they made it look worse and kept it at 30. fricking cucks.
what have they done with her chin?
Is she turning into Joker?

How moronic are you? Do you honestly think for one single moment that anyone at Rockstar was like, "Hey look everyone! Look at how diverse and woke we are for sending this project to be worked on in India!"?
Also nowdays instead of nature effects (eg. sun, distortion due to heat, etc.) we have lens effects
What is up with most games having this uniform contrast. You know ways to pop out certain things in game to make it visible. Anyone got that example of Diablo vs Diablo remaster comparison?
>took down the original versions before pushing this turd out
I wish I bought it before they pulled that stunt.
they removed the whole atmosphere
incredible
Straight upgrade
The new model they have for Joel is an upgrade, he looked really uncanny sometimes in the original game, at points he looked Asian
Did the remake race swap the doctor guy like they did in the flashbacks from part 2?
yes
This is sickeningly Orwellian. First Cuckman lies to the audience by by figuratively and literally whitewashing the lead surgeon, and by extension the Fireflies as a whole, now he's gone back to literally erase history to fit his bullshit revenge narrative. Why do Snoys keep letting him get away with this shit? It's complete and utter slop.
Calm down
gotta make them look good somehow
in the first game the fireflies were clearly full of shit, a bunch of dirty hobos trying to create a vaccine for fungi (lol), with no personal, on a hospital that's falling apart
even if they somehow managed to pull it off, just imagine the logistics of distributing it to the entire world, when they can barely walk around without shitting their pants
if their plan was to create a big team with the purpose of burning all the infected they could find, it would be way more believable than whatever they were trying to do
honestly it's pretty amazing how the cutscenes were pre-rendered in the previous versions of the game and now the real-time ones look even better.
they were pre-rendered but on the very same engine to avoid clashing with in game visuals, of course the new one on a upgraded engine looks better overall
She's VERY stylized in the original, despite the game going for realism, the face shape, eye size, etc is nearing cartoonish. They also made her look closer to her voice actress in TLOU2, so that's ported back, further from the "Ellen Page but legally distinct enough to unconvincingly claim it isn't Ellen Page" look in 1. The design looks good in the original but I can recognize it doesn't match the realistic bent TLOU2 and this remake are adhering to.
To be honest she still looks cartoonish, just shaded better now.
that a whole bunch of text just to cope to avoid admitting she got censored into being ugly
I think the new one is cuter. Old one has a weird tiny chin.
new one has old woman eye bags

The Killing Joke recolor still pisses me off since they don't FRICKING PRINT IT RIGHT ANYMORE.
yeah, where are the fricking shadows from the torches?
the recolor is done by brian bolland himself you fricking morons, DC wanted to tap back into watchmen with the goofy colors and brian was busy at the time so higgins did the colors.
That doesn't mean it looks better.
... I ask again, where are the shadows from the torches?
The lighting is completely different, such that the torches don't cast a shadow. Look at the center of his throne and how bright it is. The scene is no longer dimly lit.
I think right Cinderella looks better than left Cinderella
then you are blind, just watch comparisons on youtube, they fricked up really bad and removed a bunch of details with this horrible softening/grading
meh the color may pop more but the left has more shade value
regarding the comic, if the one on the right was the original and the one on the left was a remake, no one would say it's better.
I feel like in most cases not liking remakes isnt because it's bad, but because it's different. new = bad, old = good.
well if you edit someone's art it's kinda shitty you know
so new is literally bad because it's unauthentic
Precure Sailor Moon looked better than generic 90s Sailor Moon, now she looks unique but back then every single fricking shojo had the same shitty art style, Precure Sailor Moon actually looled like a Toei production, it's too bad that everything before and after in the remake was so shit.
These. Poorly-drawn hands aside, I actually prefer the new Sailor Moon.
Sailor moon remake is more loyal to the original manga artstyle, moron.
God, that Killing Joke one STILL hurts.
Only 2 of those are remakes
Visual Novels
??? the right looks better for once?
what game is this
the last of us
they both look good, right looks dirtier and more haggard, which might fit better for apocalypse
Left also looks quite stylized for a game that's going for realism, she looks more like an Uncharted character.
well, by your logic fricking Abbys is not fit because woman can't do steroids, eat and lift weights in post-apoc.
>obvious upgrade in all respects
>people complained because this like 48 or 50 year old woman wasn't as "hot"
Hi Neil
new joanna is hot as frick but old joanna is soul as frick
decisions decisions
Just have both both?
Her render for the N64 was always all dolled up compared to her in game appearance. But for 360 they made her a brunette for some reason.
One of the few good remasters, and it's from EA, somehow.
Frick me that game is hideous.
It's an unflattering gif, but it's not accurate, the actual game is much sharper than that.
It looks like shit no matter what, the original only worked because of the simplistic visuals, they just added a lot of detail to that and now it doesn't work.
Yeah it does though. I've played it and the remaster works just fine. The original already had a realistic color palette and texture style, so the HD one doesn't clash the way it has in other remasters.
>Capcom lost the original background files so they had to use the gamecube version and slap three layers of photoshop on them
I will be forever mad at them because of this.
Game preservation is shit. SHIT!
The gamecube backgrounds are the original ones for the remake. But the filters are disgusting. There's a mod that takes them away and the game looks 10x better, still not as vibrant as the original though.
If you are talking about this one, it actually takes most textures from the GC version. The ones they keep from PC are basically the ones Capcom managed to recover and render in HD
https://reupscaleproject.blogspot.com/2019/01/release-time_31.html
I was talking about a simple filter removal mod that gets rid of the crushed blacks + blueish and yellowish filters that they added on the "remastered" remake. Anyways, you're saying Capcom lost the gamecube backgrounds? The frick?
They lost most of the sources so they could only re-render some parts, most of the game is just the GC version upscaled on photoshop with some shitty filters, which looks like shit
I see what you mean. That's completely moronic.
You would think all project and games would be backed up on a hundred different hardrives. Nope. Leave it on one and accidentally delete it. Oops!
the way companies just do not give a shit about preservation is always so sad. the stories about people finding source codes randomly mixed in with trash (like that cuck that found the starcraft disk in a random box of blizzard shit he bought on ebay then sent it back to the company that likely threw it out to begin with) is insane. I don't get how company or dev team would give such little of a shit about something they worked hard on.
New Perfect Dark is going to be so fricking bad.
It really does look better in the 3DS version
I agree
No idea how people shit on this. Every single version is better on 3DS. Some of the lighting in cutscenes is off on 3DS but the graphics are so much superior.
>t. zoomer who thinks increasing polygonal count makes up for lack of artistic value
The original is superior in every way.
Lol no ocarina was pretty cool but they fricked up the majora remake pretty bad.
Even with those more oddly designed parts like the mask shop it doesn't matter compared to how much better the game feels to play, even 30fps compared to the loose 24 of the original feels good, the gyro aiming is great, but one of the most important factors is that the text speed isn't moving at a snails pace.
It is an actually great remake, then MM remake made some fricking stupid changes so it is a questionable but still ok remake.
Yeah, they really fricked up the remaster. Fortunately, the original three are all backward compatible on Xbox.
>remove all the ambient fog that was only there so the frame rate and draw distance didn't chug
>remove weird shadows on the character models
>NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO IT'S NOT HECKIN THE SAME
remaster was better in every way
The lighting is flat in the remaster,
t. demaster dev
Not to state it doesn't look more flat, but is there a reason it is so dark in the original? Should there not be lighting there?
It's to set the scene. Noveria is heavily based on Alien, and that volus tells you about how he closed the door on a colleague to save himself from the rachni, how he had to hear her dying screams. He's traumatized, and the lighting accompanies his tale with his body being covered in shadow with his blinking bright eyes being the only thing standing out.
this industry has no respect for itself
Perfect summation.
Stanry Roo Think you a nasty troll
Dats a DING DONG BANNU
Why do new games, specially remasters, ALL shit the bed when it comes to lighting?
Old lighting is baked into the level, new lighting is just slapping the default Unreal lighting into levels and cutscenes and camera angles designed with very specific tones and colors 15 years earlier
Ass Creed 3's "remaster" has the same problem.
You called?
>dull, gray, desaturated
>ohshitBlack personwhatareyoudoing
I've never seen bricks glow before
They used metal as mortar. It was a bold period in late colonial era.
Huh, I never really thought much about how light and shading affects Mass Effect but it's fricking GONE in LE. In some images of Shepard here, his face is 100% illuminated from all angles.
The lighting in ME is really important, especially in ME2 and 3 because they explicitly go for a comic book style with harsh, sharp lines between light and shadow. Fricking up the lighting ruins the whole look of the game.
It has been a hot minute since I played them. Maybe I ought change that soon.
>that face
Tyrone Shepard is the only way to play the series and I will hear no arguments to the contrary.
Me1 and 2 had good well placed lighting and coloring. Me2 was slightly more brightly colored. Me3 is way, way too brightly lit and colorful. I hope someone makes a mod making it like the first two one day.
ME1 had a lot more color and was generally a lot brighter and lighter than 2/3.
Everything in 2 had a red/orange hue to it. Most scenes in the game are shrouded in shadows designed to make Renegade scars more visible.
ME3 just has some shitty dull desaturation filter over it and a lot of sharp corners.
imagine as a developer, your claims to fame are this and sonic colors ultimate
and you still get work
why? nepotism? great head?
now that's what i call soulless. it looks like someone tried to get sweetfx working but it broke the lighting.
Thanks god. I still have the original Mass effect 1-3 plus DLCs on my steam account before they are delisted - replaced by LE.

>mercenaries 2
Fricking gross. What a fall from grace that series had. That game was so shit it killed the whole franchise.
Mercenaries 2 is a good game, and I loved playing it. I prefer 1 over it, but I've never seen legit criticism besides the game having a few bugs that never stopped me from enjoying the game.
>Mercenaries 2 is a good game, and I loved playing it.
>still not a single piece of legit criticism in sight
As expected.
It's a pile of shit with the worst PC port in the history of gaming. That's not an exaggeration. The fricking unfunny "jokes" didn't land and there's a reason why it didn't get a sequel, no one liked it.
>It's a pile of shit
Your opinions are a pile of shit.
>with the worst PC port in the history of gaming.
The port job being bad is like complaining about the servers being taken down: indirectly affect the game, but make no sense to include in a criticism to the game itself.
>That's not an exaggeration.
Oh yes it is. I can install and play the game just fine. I take it you've never seen another bad PC port or something. In fact, I don't even know why people say this PC port is bad, I've seen like 2 or 3 glitches when playing with a friend and that was it. I've NEVER seen anyone even point out what's bad about the port.
> The fricking unfunny "jokes" didn't land and there's a reason why it didn't get a sequel, no one liked it.
I disagree, I think they were fine. They went with a different, more lighthearted direction with 2, and I prefer 1's more serious tones, but 2 was fine.
>indirectly affect the game, but make no sense to include in a criticism to the game itself
What the frick are you even talking about? The quality of the game can't be used in criticism of the game? Do you even hear yourself?
>Oh yes it is
No it isn't. They ported the fricking wii version and locked the framerate to the wii's shitty 24fps or whatever the frick it was. The textures were complete dogshit and the draw distance was locked to half of what it was on the fricking PS3. Bugs out the ass where enemies didn't even fight back and just stood there while you killed them. Floating assets, missing textures, the game is a pile of shit.
>I disagree, I think they were fine
Yeah that doesn't surprise me, shit eater.
My wife was looking over my shoulder and said "Why did they turn her into Posh Spice?"
because thats what we want what we really really want
Because she was the only British girl I wanted to frick.
She looks like a prostitute with FAS in the remaster. I want old Joanna back but they'd probably sooner completely redesign her.
Sims 2, 3, 4.
4 has to be shopped, no way
Ive played 4 and it looks just like that
glad i jumped ship after 3
Sims peaked at 3 and no amount of 2gay denial can convince me otherwise.
why the frick did they even bother with 4? it's an absolute downgrade in every single aspect
money
Isn't it free? Should've just released more DLCs for TS3
It most certainly is not. The base game went free recently, but with all expansions, stuff packs and DLC, it is:
>$749.67
Pretty sure it was at some point, probably a year or two after the release when they noticed it wasn't selling.
Sims 4 is a scam. They made the base game free but it's so barebones you can't NOT get some of the expansions and packs at least, which number in the dozens now. Even with all of them included, its still lacking compared to 2 and 3 content and detail wise.
4 was extra gimped on release because they had the always online aspect intended all along, but the bad reception to Sim City 5 made them change their mind and strip it all out. It's really obvious the game was not meant to be singleplayer only. It explains why the base game was so barebones and backwards from Sims 3.
I've only ever played sims 1 + expansions. I genuinely have not played any other sims games kek. Isometric view has its charming quirks.
Sims 2 and 3 are great. 2 is basically a 3D version of the first game but with a lot less restrictions (aging, 5 life states instead of 2, more in depth job system, etc). 3 is a big jump from 2, it has a fully open neighborhood and more advanced customization for objects and Sims. It's a hog though with all expansions.
4 is crap. It's more like Sims 1.5 for how backward it is.

2e vs 5e
Bodhi is acceptable, but Irenicus? Lmao.
He's a lich now I believe in 5e, which is why he's not dead. Even though he lost all his magic power at the end of BG2 before he died for good, he's a lich because...lol. Bodhi is alive again as a vampire because....also lol. They should both be very dead. But Wizards wants everyone alive in 5e it seems. The Dead Three are all not Dead, Minsc is around, everyone's around.
A little frustrating because the bottom is technically well painted, but it's just more bland. I'll pass on Irenicus because his design has been changed so much, but Bodhi's pretty faithful apart from the inexplicably round ears (given she's an elf), yet the harsh painting style in BG2's one is just way more memorable and distinct. She just looks like a general waifu type wearing a similar costume on the bottom one, in the same uniform style as all over art for D&D books. The top one looks gothic, threatening, feral, sexy all at once.
Good old youtube fan remasters
based
Some of the LE shots look better so it's not a black and white difference.
It very much is
What bothers me is how they ported back Shepard's ME3 model which doesn't work very well with 1's graphics. Anderson on the other hand had better model in 3 but they are still using the same turtle face with different textures https://www.nexusmods.com/masseffectlegendaryedition/mods/1063?tab=images
sharp contrast is not really worse than smeared blur
Vanilla looks better here. Also what the frick did they do to Aria's lips?
Not a remaster but, here's a mod comparison
So, which is the E3 bullshot, the in-game vanilla shot, and the modded shot?
I honestly can't tell what I'm supposed to get from this image.
The bottom ones are the E3 mod
Top is way better.
isn't this Haytham? Who the fk approved a israelitemaster of AC4?
I swear they blew the budget on Jellyfish Fields. They didn't even re do any of the music or dialogue.
Ew. Fricking put it away. Cover this troony with a tarp or something.
why did they do it
Well, the body nerf is for ~~*obvious*~~ reasons, but the face was just an outright bad scan. They got better at it since.
and other people in the game look better
The one other woman in the game doesn't look that great either.
Capcom really only got the hang of RE Engine face scans for women in RE Village (or arguably in RE3 if you like Zotova Jill, which I do).
Lady looks good, Nico doesn't necessarily look attractive but that's a design thing rather than a technical thing. Trish is the only one that looks weird and doughy.
I forgot about Nico, and I'll disagree with you at the expense of my own argument because she does look good.
What can I say, even trashy has its charms.
See how much weirder and worse Trish looks. I doubt that's just down to using a new face model because the other two look realistic and scanned new models too.
Her model just had one of those faces that don't lend themselves well to face scans.
Face scans first of all are done without makeup, so someone that looks good all dolled up IRL can look bad in a video game. There are also engine quirks and rigging to consider.
A good example of this is Forspoken. The actress/model is gorgeous IRL, but because the scan wasn't the best and the gameplay animations and lighting are atrocious she looks like an abomination.
it's weird because all the other characters look good in DMC5. RE7 had some weirdo faces going on though.
I heard a lot of whining about Lady. She does look different from DMC 3, much less stylized, but she's still clearly attractive. People forget she's meant to be a similar age to Dante, and he's well in his 40s, approaching 50 in DMC5, so of course she looks like a woman and not a teenager.
She reminds me of Mary Elizabeth Winstead in V. There's worse things to be reminded of, so I am ok with that.
no you homosexual she looks horrible in DMC5
DMC3 Lady is perfection
I like her in both
>she looks bad because she looks different
Stupid logic.
She looks like a hot woman in both. But an anime styled one in 3, and a realistic one in 5, in line with the generic shift to a realistic rendering for everyone in 5.
Yeah no. I've seen horrible changes and that's not one of them. She looks good in DMC5.
gay
troony
Lady looks great in V, so does Dante, but I'm iffy on Vergil and Trish looks pretty awful. It's a mixed bag.
No she's not, you're blind.
In realism, she definitely is attractive and looks better than any woman you’ll bring home
Are the guys who did the render art for 5 the same guys from previous titles? the way the renders are composed feel similar
Trish looks horrible but I’ve jerked off so many times to Nico porn
Nico's def grown on me since DMC5 brought her in.
Shame I can't find that one porn vid anymore of her riding Nero in the van while his theme plays.
I'd give her my multi-pass.
Not enough DMC4 Trish porn
both her and gloria don't

REmake, Skyrim Special Edition
Diablo II remaster was excellent and faithful. REmake is superior to the original, if more stylized.
>REmake is superior to the original
No.
>if more stylized.
Die in a ditch.
I like the Resident Evil remakes (except RE3, but that's only for being too short).
Remasters, though, not at all. I don't think I've ever seen a single one with improvements that justify its existence, and that's only the handful that aren't significantly worse than the original. It's always a cancerous exercise in futility that only benefits console manufacturers who killed backwards compatibility so they could sell you the same game ad infinitum every gen.
REmake is my favorite game. most remakes and remasters are still shit.

Although it isn't really a necessary remake and I'm not a big fan of the series, TLoU part 1 is genuinely great looking
Halo 3 MCC
Not the biggest fan of the creative liberties taken with some of the new enemy models, like beheadeds now carry their heads around, but other than that the HD Encounters are very solid.

I'm really thinking about it and no other games remake comes to mind, the halo CE remake is a fricking joke, MM did some dumb shit that made it worse but generally it is fine to play still.
Bionic Commando Rearmed
Duck Tales Remastered
Trials of Mana
These Black folk just found the BLOOM button
that'll be 4 dorra per month, gaijin
>botch one of the best looking and most memorable locations in the game, AND ruin the stylish reveal of the miniboss in the process
D'oh!
That's neither a remaster, remake nor sequel, it's just an emulation port.
What's the difference between an emulation port and a really shitty and lazy remake?
Just shitty emulation that got fixed eventually
doesnt change the fact that they made people pay premium for the shitty emulation
No one is forcing people to pay for shitty emulation. It's on them fo being morons and paying for easily emulated games
bump
Why can’t /misc/ decide if they like him or not
lots of people think that him having a diplomatic meeting with israeli delegates mean he is israelite controlled and there's a fake birth certificate that does the rounds claiming he is israeli
the new Perfect Dark game has her having that dyke haircut, half side shaved and the other one has long hair
I have seen the pictures, frick modern devs
Joanna in Zero is shit as well homosexual
But they were at least still going for sex appeal.
this is the worst one imo
wtf did they do with the phone poles
wtf did they do to everything, you mean
yeah but that caught my attention the most. anyway is that golden on vita or steam, or is it basically the same thing?
Both. Golden on steam is the golden from the vita, hence the lack of assets and removal of THE ACTUAL FRICKING FOG THAT'S PLOT RELEVANT
I forgive this because both look terrible. The real crime was Chie's new voice actress.
>game is known for having cel shading
>get rid of it for the remaster and add a shitload of bloom
brilliant
i like it
Needs more piss-filter, I can barely smell the urine.
WW HD has that "we just discovered HD" feel of 2005-2008 games on 360/PS3 with the overdone bloom and odd colors though oversaturated in this case instead of desaturated.
NINTENDO
The previews of WWHD were something in which I thought someone just slapped this together in Gmod because of how basic it looked
The only thing good with the right is the water textures, everything else about it is soulless.
I remember when this came out tons of people were saying things like
>finally a GOOD remaster for once.
Maybe I'm misremembering but I remember that being said a lot.
i only remember people shitting on the bloom
lots of fanboys were defending it
Did the remaster come with a free pair of sunglasses?
I'M GONNA BLOOOOOM
Nintendo finally hired that man.
>given enough time, people will outperform wagies entirely for free
Indeed, since people usually work for passion rather than obligation. You can see it with Valve's lack of effort with HL1 Source.
HL Source was basically just a project they created so their devs could get used to the Source engine, I don't blame them. They even gave it for free back then.
Wow, they did a great job
>cherry picking console war homosexual is at it again with Legends
You could also do the exact opposite where the ps1 has way worse models at distance and you pick emulated versions to do this with too.
>console war
tendie its time to let it go
the N64 is older than you
But you are the one doing it with misleading comparisons, people are going to fall for your bullshit.
I don't give a shit about console wars, you do, what I care about is homosexuals like you posting that stupid shit where it doesn't belong, you are the person I have a problem with, not consoles.
>But you are the one doing it with misleading comparisons
by posting direct comparisons while you post epsxe screenshots?
Read my previous post moron.
>You could also do the exact opposite where the ps1 has way worse models at distance
That's what I'm doing, and why I called it cherry picking, I'm proving my point so that anybody that doesn't know better won't fall for your misleading comparison.
I'm not denying the original games strengths because I'm not a console fanboy but I know better than to fall for your bullshit.
I've seen you or someone exactly like you doing this bullshit comparisons with MML for years now.
see
stop seething tendie
>cries about cherry picking
>doesn't post any comparisons
>n64
>no bilinear filtering
at least emulate it correctly if you're going to make comparisons
Soul vs Soul
I like both
Fog vs fogless
Nice ass
all these remasters made me appreciate the work that went into the cutscenes in the original
If I wanted to replay the Arkham triliogy (only did the first one on 360 back when it came out), which version do I go for? I have a PC and all consoles.
the PC versions are all good now
for Arkham Knight the PC version has sligtly more grounded/muted feel compared to console where everything looks a bit wet and shiny. but the quality is there, just different style
Silent Hill 2 Remake being made by Bloober Team will suck. I just know it
He looks like he aged 30 years, not 18.
dude is like the opposite of kojima
Not the same girl, and left looks much better when considering for lower resolution.
Sad.
Left also looks absolutely nothing like the character in the art though
I can't believe you can't faithfully recreate the likeness of a person with 5 and a half polygons and 16x16 textures
I prefer Joel in the original/PS4 Remaster over the PS5 Remake
He looks HAPA in the ps4 version
Why?
He looks a bit too old in the remake. He's supposed to be around 50 isnt he?
He should as he doesn’t have access to modern conveniences that keep us looking young in the modern age
it's downright tragic how they never ported XBLA perfect dark to PC.
demo / retail
Soulful HD edition.
Capcom should've hired this guy, unironically. He did a remaster himself, and it's not just textures, he tweaked models, shading, enabled missing effects, everything.
It's a team, and they did promote it and I don't know if gave them money, but at least they didn't DMCA it
Even if the official RE4 remake fails to deliver, the fan made HD project is a true spirit remake that already has everything you would really want. It's pure SOUL.
This. Dude did the best video game remaster ever in his fricking house, and basically on his own.
Fricking magic man
>the maker of the HD project is Spanish, and went around to the cities in Spain Capcom's team went to in the early 2000s to take reference photos for the early RE4 (well before it evolved into the eventual final RE4), and actually found a lot of the same buildings and spots they used for texture and architecture references, so he used his own photos of the same things for referencing his HD versions
That's some soulful shit
With this, the ruins on the island, the underground ruins at the castle area, and the Mexican VAs, were they planning to set this up in Mexico from the start?
He redrew it on paper? Based autist
homie he went to Spain just to take photos of the buildings, statues and art they used as source for some assets.
He didn't went to Spain, he already is from there
cool hobby but he did a bad job
HL2 mod
Standalone Source engine release
People can b***h and whine all they want about the altered lighting, the fact that the faces no longer look like deflated balloons is enough to make DE better.
The lighting is pretty bad, they look like they swallowed light bulbs. While the face did need improvements, and while image quality wise the new ones are better, artistically they look "generic"
Generic as they may seem, they at least look GOOD, and they actually ressemble X and 3, now 2 is the ugly ducking with the weird chipmunk faces
To me it looks boring but I admit I'm not particularly fond of generic anime style
right looks like someone about to start screaming in a walmart. I'll take the botched tomboy on the left gun to my head.
>Removing soulful potatofaces
Only Melia and Fiora improved.
>Why yes I only know modern shit anime artstyles, everything else is icky and gross just like my taste
They looked like shit dude. Stop huffing that copium.
Soul and ass crack missing.
Is the ass crack in the 3ds port? It might be hard to see in those muddy textures.
We had the perfect Shulk already, but I understand they wanted the series to be consistent.
Crash NST is just pure travesty and whats sad its that it wasnt even outsourced to pajeets or taiwanese studios.
I fricking hate vicarious visions
While the color palette was inferior to the original's and there's some quibbles about interpretations of this and that enemy, the Spyro Ignited trilogy was much superior to the N Sane remaster.
both look ugly but I prefer the remake. Original looks like a fricking man.
I'll forever hate how they ruined her in knight
But she looks way better
no she doesn't, and you're gay
Yeah ok bro
stay gay homosexuals, I'll enjoy my big titty video game girl
But they're the same size, and they aren't even that big in City. In fact they might be bigger in Knight.
yea but she looks 14 in arkham knight, gross.
in city she's FRICKING SEX
Those aren't even big.
>lifeless mannequin
>straight waifu
I don't get it
Right is way better homosexual
whatever, we'll never get best catwoman
>TAS
You know Kevin Conroy was a homosexual, right?
yes and I was sas when I found out but that doesn't affect catwoman
To me it did, it basically destroyed any enjoyment I had in TAS. It just feels permanently tainted, almost evil now. Not to mention this makes the Robin molestation jokes horrifyingly real.
to me it's like every little werid inflection in his voice now invokes queries in my mind like "is that just a quirk or is it homosexual speech?"
but w/e I'll just not rewatch it any time soon and a few years from now when I forget about this I'll go "eh maybe it was all made up" and just watch it through my childhood's mind eye.
Schizo shit to the max.
yeah
Same. I heavily prefer her look in city because that game had actual art style and Catwoman's design in that game had way more personality and was way more faithful to her look in the comics with heavy makeup and more mature face and expressive body language. Her design in Knight complytly lacks that mature vibe and looks way too boring and generic.
God I wish I was Batman
wtf weren't children meant to buy these
Age of Empires 2: Definitive Edition is probably the only good remaster/remake I've ever seen. I'd even risk to say it's perfect.
I'll add Starcraft too
portraits was a mixed bag tho
wow, they literally added soul
Diablo III to Heroes of the Storm
downgrade
Gonna buy the original mass effect games on my xbox, how are the remasters of the Bioshock games?
Why?
The usual
why is it always
>better textures
but
>shittier lighting
why can't we have both?
And usually missing effects
Again, why can't we have good lighting to go with the increased texture fidelity? Why do newer engines suck so badly at basic rendering?
It has nothing to do with engines, it comes from putting the least amount of effort possible in to the remaster.
i hate the bioshock remaster because they mopped up all the floors. The place being wet is kind of important.
Ironically the one the only times where i'd say the bloom and fog was actually better. Like wtf were they thinking with those ports?
>game is set in a town blanketed by mysterious fog
>remove the fog
Just baffling
They did the same thing in Silent Hill as well lmao.
The Shita ruining another franchise, kill all Vitards
>vita ruins franchise because developers are too lazy to undo the compromises they had to make to get the game running on a handheld
Today I will remind them of Atlus' Black person behavior.
I ain't reading that shit
just give me left vs right comparisons
It's better.
>Besides a little bit around her neck and chest, the only armor is in her arms
WHY WHY WHY, if she's using find that means she's a kid to long range unit, arm armor would only be useful sorry range and at that point you're fricked. Not only that but it's actively going to affect your aim to have your arms weighted down by bulky armor. It's make sense to have armor everywhere but that
Well, that is a bit of a shame since I only played the remake (pirated) but some of that does seem rather petty even if it is still worth pointing out because useless changes are useless.
why did they give Joanna down syndrone/chinkface? also made the gun too big and the boobs sag
>down syndrone/chinkface?
Americanized* her.
DOOM 1/2 vs DOOM 64
OOF
why
The pain elemental's little arms always crack me up.
Doom64 was soul as frick
too bad they had to cut out so many enemies due to cartridge space
Pathologic Classic HD vs Pathologic 2.
I preferred Pathologic 1, I really don't understand the incessant whining about walking. It added to the atmosphere.
As much as I love Pathologic 2 visually, I almost prefer the visual style they had early on in development. It almost had a Tim Burton vibe to it, and I'm a bit sad they lost that as the game was developed.
knock-knock already had that kind of style so maybe they didn't want to do it again
It did, but to apply that style to a 3D world seemed really cool to me.
I always wanted to play conker live and reloaded (mostly for the multiplayer) can be emulated yet?
they turned her into posh spice. p sexy ngl
How about some good remasters?
that scene look fricking moronic
>jrpg with completely barren indoor environments
Why do they do this?
wasnt the remaster made by chinks?
nope
by poles
