Man, now I regret not waking up for the show ;(

Only played the Demo back in the PSX days, this gonna be good playing it for the first time on PS4.

What about a full remaster of COLONY WARS on PS4VR now, please Sony??

Colony Wars is one if not my favorite games of all time.

But that game is too deep for them to do a remaster... no way would they have the balls. I'm calling you out Sony! U don't have the Ballz you hear me???


For now I'll just settle for a remaster of Jumping Flash 1 & 2 with PSVR Support... and better fucking have the orginal soundtrack. >:(

I would preffer soemthing as Crash Nsane Trilogy.
This seems to use same assets.
This is the same stuff people were saying with the Crash Remaster...

Again:
That's another PlayStation Experience in the books! And we've been holding onto some especially exciting news. Hot on the heels of this year's smash hit Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy, we're making another PlayStation fan dream come true: a proper, PS4-grade resurrection of the original MediEvil just in time for the game's 20th anniversary.

Layden said he'd seen "a lot of feedback about the title MediEvil" and considers the PlayStation game "a really important title in my personal journey and career."

"We think Sir Daniel needs one more resurrection and this is the time to do it," Layden said. "Serendipitously, I'd already had this one baking in the oven and then I saw all the pressure and thought this was a great time to talk about it."

Keen to see how this one turns out.

This game was a big part of my childhood despite not owning a PS1. We'd always pull this one out at my neighbours place.

Yeah COLONY WARS is a different beast, but they are listening, Medievil is proof again of that, so we should remind them at every opportunity we get, that we haven't forgotten the masterpiece that COLONY WARS is.
I guess it's time again to tweet some Sony dudes about dat sweet COLONY WARS franchise.

Jumping Flash remakes are also very high on my list, have very fond memories of them, especially the soundtrack ;). With PS4 beasting away the way it does, such dream revivals/remakes aren't out of reach.

I assume they'll rework the soundtrack like with Crash, eager to visit the Scarecrow Fields once more!

Oh my fucking gods yes!

I LOVE Medievil, and it was the long shot I was going to hope for a remaster if after what I thought was the far more likely Spyro games, so this is basically the best news I could wake up to!

Woo!!!

OH. MY. GOD. I thought I was still asleep when I turned on the PC and saw this, unexpected and yet probably the best news I could get from PSX.

Amazing news. That fake a couple of years ago was a heartbreak, looks like Sony noticed the feedback.

I wonder who's developing the remaster.

Well well! I played the original several times and I'm looking forward to the remaster.

Do we already known the developer?

Dreams do come true!



Yeah, I presume this is actually a remake and not a mere remaster given the original game was made with a two-decade-old platform in mind and looks like this:

I sure hope so. The fear is that it'll take more cues from the PSP reboot than the original, which would be a mistake.

Huh, well, this was a surprise!

I just hope Sony eventually stops only doing remasters of his old franchises, would be cool if they actually got some inspiration off Nintendo and decided to revive those IPs.

It's been said a few times that PSOne games couldn't be remastered because the assets are already too low quality

It's interesting that remakes using original geometries, dubbed as 'full remasters' appear to be the solution to this.

So whatcha gonna do about Metal Gear Solid 1!

I can confirm that you guys have exceptional taste.

COLONY WARS is my GOAT game IP. I want a new entry so bad that hurts.

I consider it a travesty that the series didn't continue into the PS2 gen and onwards. However, now is the time, Sony, to deliver to the world the masterpiece that is COLONY WARS again.

Just the thought of a modern space flight shooter like COLONY WARS, made by Sony FP, perhaps even made on the Decima engine....

.... hnnnnnnnggggggghhh!!!!!

Based on the past I think that might jumping the gun, we'll need to see it since they've called previous things remasters that have been more than just quick and dirty remasters and until it's the case I can't see them just using PS1 graphics assets.

There we go.

I vastly preffered the sequel but still an amazing game.
If I would have pick something to remaster it would have been this series and first Ape Escape.

Show me something in-game, you bastards!

I never loved Medievil, but I liked it a lot. I always felt like it just needed a little more polish. I am excited about this.
