There is still multi-platform which can mean 'bigger in scope'. My gut still says exclusive (with Sony), since Sony has been feeding them studio growth.

Bluepoint's next game is another remake, bigger in scope than SotC
- Thread starter Xenosaga
- Start date
A remake should feel a little different though...? Otherwise why remake it at all? It was faithful to the original in most ways but it would inevitably have its own spin and most people are ok with that.
Anti-bluepoint talk being kept hush hush sounds very conspiratorial. Most people loved the remake. That article is honestly a whole bunch of nothing. The light pool? Lol. Dormin feels pretty damn powerful and all observing in the remake. And the bloom was never going to be recreated because it's a product of its era.
forgot about that one. exception to the norm i guess i should say
Source on this?
The most recent I could find was Ueda saying he was not that involved
https://gamerant.com/shadow-of-the-colossus-remake-director-fumito-ueda-role/
And furthermore that Ueda submitted a list of proposed changes, with an admission there's no guarantee anything he suggested got in
http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2...ges-for-the-shadow-of-the-colossus-ps4-remake
We never got a follow up saying if any of that got in. Do you know otherwise, Shinobi?
Because at the moment, it really sounds like Sony intentionally distanced Ueda from his own game. All because Sony is technically the owner of the SoTC IP so they can distance themselves from the person who invented the idea. It really seems sketchy to me what Sony did with this game, from what we officially know about it so far.
I wouldn't really trust From art assets with companies outside of From and the Sony team. The art is very unique.
Well remakes also take a lot more time and resources and may not necessarily satisfy everyone who enjoyed the original so that'd be why they aren't done as much. I personally like them more as well but I can see why they'd only be done for a select few games, generally older games that have become classics and/or cult classics
Well, if it's a remake of a mainline Mario game, I feel like that'd be something that's more likely to be done in-house. I could see a Metroid or a Zelda remake being outsourced though

Way more assets, systems, persistent online connectivity, etc.
Remaking Demon's Souls, or remastering it, would be harder than SotC.
With all the backlash they got tying it to Infinite warfare and ruining it with skins and dumb dlc/MT's it will not be tied to a purchase of another game. I can see it coming out before fall so infinity ward can have their game in fall. But honestly thought I heard things changed for them after Infinite warfare. Wouldn't be surprised if IW had MW2 remake be their main game. And make to content for it for campaign and multiplayer.
DeS has beautiful direction but the assets are just ugly in places. A remaster wouldn't be good enough.
SotC is pretty stylized and it came out great imo. I think BP knows how to stay true to the vibe of the original.
Yup. The SOTC remake's art is already really different in tone in a lot of cases. The Souls games basically are the art and environment. It won't be right if an outside team does it.
Gonna throw my vote for Demons Souls remake, complete with the Land of the Giants arch stone.
I'd put money on it getting announced at E3 with 2019 release date, which will also be the games 10th anniversary.

I disagree. Strangely, the assets in both Demons Souls and Dark Souls are higher resolution than you'd expect. That's why the PC Dark Souls scaled up so nicely. Demons Souls emulated at 4k looks pretty amazing, really. Probably looks as good as some PS4 games.
I agree with everything you said. Mario Galaxy has to be put in HD. It would probably be able to compete graphically with games now.
Literally because people want it to be. Also, many think that the shutdown of DeS servers indicates a new release for PS4
Isn't TLG technically a PS4 remake of a never-released PS3 game
I do not understand what this guy is saying right here
As much as I want that I don't think it's old enough to be considered a classic. And EA would want to wait on that after what happened to the series af ER Andromeda.
Graphics wise, the only thing Demon's Souls could really use is better lighting. Give it proper, modern-day lighting, fix the UI, make that shit 1080p@60fps, and you've got yourself a winner.
Mass Effect should go the Yakuza route and remaster one game at a time
Would love this so much! Or Dragon Age Origins or DA2, who's graphics are just starting to annoy me, which is weird as I'm fine with KOTOR? I love Dragon Age so much but the brown everywhere annoys me, specially when you compare it to how vibrant Dragon Age Inquisition is.
Ok! I would love if they remade Dead Rising 1
A complete remake of infamous 1 would be amazingInfamous Collection.
Belive.
I like these posts.
Sony did trademark Syphon Filter late last year, so it wouldn't surprise me if they reached out to Bluepoint again for this.

while From do have a well defined art style, its Sony's assets to remaster, so we could only hope that BP try adhere to the original assets as much as possible.
"better lighting"? a majority of the asset chain, from the character models, to many of the bosses look like garbage now, even the art style can't fix those.
The jump From made in fidelity from Demon's Souls to Dark Souls 1 is vastly underestimated

Supervisor: Fumito Ueda.
Also Ueda and GenDESIGN were pretty active with SOTC Remake launch on Twitter, you don't do this if Sony "intentionally distanced " from you, same as you don't see Kojima talking about Metal Gear.
