$50 for a port (not even a remaster) onto a last gen console? and not even a PC release?! man i'm disappointed to say the least.

That's the thing - loads of people are also willing to shell out for a port

Why make a decent profit by remaking the game, when you can have a small team port the game over a few weeks and rake in basically 100% profit

I'd wager the difference between the number of copies that would see for a remake vs for a port is depressingly low

No love for pc this time around either? 😭

Time to switch emulate the port of a PS3/Xbox 360 game, maybe then it can finally run well on my system

Xenia Canary runs RDR really well if you haven't tried it yet. I was surprised I was able to get through the entire game without problems on my ~5yr old gaming laptop.

For some reason I can only just get it playable with an RX 6800 and R7 5700X, tried Xenia and RPCS3

Gonna do the same here

Switch emulation is actually pretty good now, so we have hope.

Typical Rockstar bullshit.

Wow! A port of a 13 year old game will soon run on 10 year old hardware? Keep on innovating R*!

And their release of the GTA trilogy was just so stellar.... They seem like Square Enix with their classic games, in not caring about them anymore.

$49.99 - That's a bit of a stretch for me.

Followed by a PC release... right? RIGHT?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 years ago (2 children)

The fact that this is only going to PS4 and Switch makes me think a remake really is coming...

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Maybe it's because XBox can still play it through Backwards Compatibility.

And on One X and Series X, it plays at 4K with 16x Anisotropic Filtering along with auto HDR

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

Yeah something's not quite right.
