Shadow of the Colossus PS4: The Greatest Console Remake Ever? 

Jonathan Chase demon soul dont need a remake just a remaster like dark soul 1 I would prefere Bluepoint working on a ps2 or ps1 games Metal gear solid 1 Could be a great choice for a remake

Meh. MGS has already had a remake on Gamecube, Kojima is no longer part of Konami and Bluepoint seems to work only for Sony although it is an independent studio. Imo it's unrealistic to think about it. A remake of Demon's Souls or any license owned by Sony makes more sense.

Jonathan Chase no one wants that shit

Phil Spencer youre going to have to get some better bait.

its trash doe

This game is a master piece, is magic...

Hairoo love the 30fps option

Seth Lev No! Just regular eyes with 24 fps.

Sunny Frisch ah fair enough

Original game was 20 fps in Colossus battles :p it was never a problem for me

Yellow Flash ignorance is bliss.

Tomiply Xbox fanboys 😔

Tomiply Salty fanboys not happy with their platform.

On the bright side it's not as bad as the salty PlayStation users when DF make a video regarding Xbox,lol.

This Mercenary Fanboys are always bad ... no matter from which side... Why can't people let other people enjoy things they may not like themselves?

Recht_voor_zijn_raap I don't understand why you're so quick to think it's fanboys. People will dislike anything on the internet and that is a fact.

Damion Curry I love my Wichard

Nope. He whines way too much about framerate and blows its importance completely out of proportion. Also, he makes the mistake in these reviews of spending more time highlights the games issues than he does its positives. No matter how infrequent the issues are, he'll still spend the same amount of time talking about the negatives as a game with lots of issues, or a moderate amount.

There is a reason he does these overviews

Hugo Stiglitz Aww, poor baby. Sounds like some of your favorite games had unfavorable performance. Must be an Xbox owner , huh? :(

"Everybody in the German Army has heard of Hugo Stiglitz". Seriously though, the guys at DF are good and I like their videos but the British guys mention 4K too much. It gets annoying very quickly.

I did not find the part where he's talking about resolution.

Not all games get 60fps though.. only a few..

@@Sejuani89 it is understandable though with how old the hardware is in the fist place

@@eloisecole3579 12:35

I thought the same, but if you have 4k oled game looks insane, those texture details in cinematic mode not to be missed for slight drop in fps!! same goes for Last Guardian

Liberated Guardian 😂

They choose not too

Liberated Guardian true

Tell me how you see it that way! I’m genuinely curious to see your perspective.

But the remake kind of shits on the the original's art style and feel, as well. The dreamy bloom is gone, the color palette is too "realistic" and so on; the visual atmosphere of the original is almost completely gone. Even the colossi look worse (in my opinion).

* on PS3 or emulated on PC

manhuntttttttt

imagine if bluepoint remade Manhunt for PS5

It's a REMAKE. Not a remaster. Learn the difference. Did you play CoD 4 remastered? Because that could explain why you don't know the difference. CoD 4 was falsely titled. It was technically a remake.

Yes I played CoD 4 remastered too. I mixed the terminology in this case.

Eduardo Betta It's not a reboot!!! A remake doesn't have to add new elements to be classified as one.

Its a great *REMASTER* not a *REMAKE*

@@supergamer1870 it is not a remaster. remastering is polishing an already existing game up like shadow of the colossus for the ps3. A remake is remaking an already existing game up from scratch. Like rayman revolution, tomb raider anniversary, shadow of the colossus 2018. However, not all remakes have to be the same like their original. Tomb Raider Anniversary for instance uses remade levels but somehow different, but the story is the same and it's levels are close to its original design. Rayman Revolution uses a complete different game engine than its original and REMASTERING some levels up like replacing 2d sprites with 3d moddels and added some polygons into the rayman moddel. Also they added and removed some content. Like the hall of doors (removed) and the teensie circle (added) Shadow of the Colossus had been remade like an exact copy of its original. But with new technology and a complete new game engine (which was explained in the video) However, they kept the main game exact the same. Music included (which is REMASTERED)

The charm is completely absent though. Everything is too bright and alive, it's not SUPPOSED to look clear and bright and colorful. It's supposed to look like a fading dream realm with dead grass that hasn't been explored for eons.

Antiform you can change the filter omg. You get 60fps complete remake and you are still not satisfied? Gtfo man.

A filter isn't going to put back the dead grass and fog.

+Antiform It's because of people like you that we can't have nice things. I'M SURE that if the game was created today that Ueda would add grass over his game because the console can do that. The Playstation 2 was a weak console, so adding grass to the game would make the game almost unplayable. The fog was only truly there because again, the PS2 was weak. It can't render all the details in the distance so adding fog helped the game for running in a ''decent'' framerate. You're the same type of person that will critics the mind of artistic creation like George Lucas with The Phantom Menace. If nobody would have complained about the movie, then we would have one of the best plot twist in the franchise but noooooo, fanboys like you will always complain for HIMSELF, and that's a true shame.

And would Picasso have drawn his paintings with normal proportions if he had better paint? What kind of stupid crap is that? SOTC looked perfectly fine on PS3 and on emulator it looks much better than this. This looks like a different game. It looks like one of those fangames where they take an old PS1 or N64 title and then remake it in Unity with newer models. Like yeah it looks ""better"" in the sense of having smoother edges and brighter lighting but that isn't automatic improvement. If I bought a sculpted reproduction of Michaelangelo's David, I wouldn't want them adding clothes and accessories to it just because sculpting them is EASIER now than it was in the creator's time. Ridiculous.

4K 60fps+ is the way to play great on consoles

Christer Sjöberg Cinematic mode for me. 60fps adds nothing from my own experience. Don't get the hype.

L M For most people, it's a lot smoother and less jittery than 30fps.

FantasyNero keep dreaming, consoles can’t do 4k.

Frisson Except they can, just not on all games.

Di Almighty Spartan God Companies like Bluepoint should be independent.

Gamzat Abakarov I know but Sony is the only company they work real close with. Insomniac Games is like this too, and people always confuse them as a Sony Studio

Di Almighty Spartan God microsoft should buy Sony already

Lol they could buy SONY but wouldnt get the Playstation asset of it.

they arnt making their first game yet.

RANDY TYSON as a pc gamer , you dont want a console to be underpowerd, it will affect the game vision, then it will affect pc as well.... Do you remember what bungie told to the gamer community , if they make destiny 2 60fps on console they need to cut the open world game designed into half, this will affect pc port,. :( remember now a days almost all AAA developer are using base console to make games,. That is why majority of the pc games are port from ps4 and xbox one in mind..

i would love to see that

Dye Yung I'd like an ICO remake, never got to play it first time round.

Yeah but that would involve money going to Konami. Fuck Konami.

Frellyouall True but I like silent hill a lot so I probably would buy it used then lol

Dye Yung Remake. There corrected it for you.

Hi Superlosia! Loved your Bloodborne videos.

Thank you :)

Yup, the thrill of looking for the next colossi and getting chills when I felt I am getting near. The beauty of the first playthrough was you had no idea what you will run into and how to defeat it. Sometimes I just stood there watching the colossus, wandering how the fuck do they expect me to kill that

yep, best game ever, I'll remember it until the day I die.

sammyflinders But it was years ago!

Kids 15 and under feel that way. The rest of us actually appreciate greatness...

eja35oz Lmao do you really think 15 year olds are kids ? That's like saying "college kids" are actual kids. Do you have any brain cells my guy?

Waterblade knights lol they are kids, kid

I know right. Too bad games nowadays have to be chaotic to be enjoyable.

Game Head We don't want more bloody remakes on ps4 I'd rather have new games instead.

That's idiotic to say because PS4 has an infinity of new games and only three remakes at the moment. Remakes like this are amazing.

Agreed. If any one game needs to be remade, this is the one! And remasters can comfortably co-exist alongside all the new games. As there are more new games coming out for PS4/Pro and PSVR this year, than for Xbox one and Switch combined. So no need for anyone at all to decry this as causing lack of new games. Just dont buy remakes/remasters, if that isn’t your thing. Simples!

Now this is Podracing

goofed86 you are in for a treat

Same and I just got a pro not to long ago so I'm really excited for this release.

Archivist42 me too

ahaha i bet you dont own a PC

If this means you also haven't played the uncharted games yet, I'm jealous!

+aldrum Ahha I bet you dont own Bloodborne. But oh, wait. Its not good enough for you because of 30 fps.

If i want to play a slow paced fighting combat like that, i woud play Dark soul 3 or Nioh on the PC

WoW a cool pc gamer , thats rare Lol , dude get Bloodborne asap , dont take the salty pc fanboys damaging control attempts seriously and whatever you do stay TF away from knack XD

I'm going to get this game for my Commodore 64.

FerrariKangaroo NICE 👌

Dex Fox me 2

This is some of the best fur I have seen. It's incredible.

The way it swishes around now, when the Colossus shakes its head... impressive! Even Fox McCloud would be jealous.

Nahh, what they NEED to do is remake Silent Hill 2 since Konami totally fucked it up.

Rather have the resistance trilogy but demon's souls would be sick.

Deffo need a Demons Souls Remaster

That would be awesome. I hope Sony considers them for any potential remakes in the future. My remake wish to them is Legend of Dragoon.

This is a reMAKE, not a remaster.

Well, 4K 60 fps would ideal, would it?

MadFinnTech true but I don't think any console would be able to do that. Maybe one x, but I don't think it would be at native 4k. Also theres a trend with games that run in 60 fps on pro and such, all of them are not demanding on the CPU, the CPU is always the bottleneck in most games if they try to go above 30

It's not turning 5 until late October.

Bryce not until they remake ico too

Armature did the vita version though, which is also an excellent remaster company.

Fendera 00

nh k So true 😂

PullMyFinger1982 Each to their own.

I would normally agree, but I specifically locked Hellblade to 30fps so I could max out the settings and run it Super-sampled @1620p. The gameplay isn't very fast-paced and I feel the graphics of that game are more important than most games.

60fps? That’s cute

PC Gamer, What are your specs? I'm running: i5-4690K; 16GB 2400Mhz RAM; GTX 1070

MunkeyChips i9 7900x 32gb 1080ti sli

Robby Huang Why it's an old ass game the ps2 and ps3 already have this game already I'd rather have new games instead.

Schizm1 omfg, now THAT would be a dream come true! :D

It's a shame the rights of the game are all over the place

joaquin trujillo Really? Who has which rights to the game atm?

joaquin trujillo that's not true. Ip belongs to Sony

Roman00 Reading again, I took it a bit too far. Sony has the rights, FromSoftware made it and I'm pretty sure Atlus was involved in some way But it's still weird why they haven't made a remaster yet

Legend Of Gamer Yes. From PS2 era 🤣 and not native 4K/60fps. 4ThePlajers - pay again for the same game... and again... and again... and again... and again... Sony fanboys are really weird 😅

Rhtr Nah they are gamers

rhtr "pay again for the same game... and again... and again... and again... and again...", that sounds like nintendo and switch ports games (Hyrule warrios for example, or DK, or Bayonetta, or Pokken, Haha ok, i´ll stop)

Sony always does.

steelN7 i need it

steelN7 This. Combined with the new Dark Souls Remaster we could have the whole Soulsborne series on PS4! Just make it happen Sony pls.

It's done

Jen Soon Ng 😂 They'll exclusively rerelease it in 2021.

dtroof49 Who’s Bluehole?

Kadeem John The dev of PUBG

Thanks now i got the (w)hole point!

oh yea LOL fuck bluehole. 1 game they've delivered and they're dumbasses that agreed to a deal with xbox instead of playstation. Now they're getting murked by Fortnite because of it.

Hugo Stiglitz haha you mad pubg not on your plastic, stay salty lil girl

If it means destroying the original art direction, I hope not.

How is the art direction of SotC destroyed here?

Frellyouall Hell no not more bloody remakes of old ass games.

Paul Barnes too bad

@@Ryusennin this is an absolutely phenomenal remake.

it s treat!

they ruined the forgotten land atmosphere though. the lack of fog and the lushness of the grass makes it seem like a happy place which it isn't meant to be. If you prefer the melancholic vibe which fits the narrative i'd get the ps3 version (if you can handle frustrating physics , otherwise a ps2 :P)

And also fix those textures bugs

That’s cute

A PC Gamer your name says it all.... I enjoyed this game on 15-25 fps years ago so i will enjoy it now for sure

Tomislav Vukic 30fps is just insanely unrealistic, +60fps is way smoother and closer to real life that I forget I’m playing a game

Thor: well actually we can play SotC(ps2) on PC, and the remakes will be emulated eventually.

Thor agree

I agree that graphics are important, I just hate when people act like graphics are the sole thing that makes or breaks a game

I'd say gameplay > graphics. If those remasters and remakes shows us something, it's that those games were already amazing even before the added visual goodies. An old Super Mario game is equally enjoying to play as a brand new, eventhough the new one looks better. It's not just the HDR, extreme details or better models that make a game a compelling experience ; it's the art style and visual choices within.

@@thegrau Not in every game. But generally, no one is denying that gameplay is more important, what we are denying is the ridiculous notion that it doesn't matter.
