In Defence of Remasters

NZGamer: Love them or hate them, remasters look like theyre here to stay. But are they really such a blight on the games industry? It seems like almost every week, theres a new remastered, remade, or simply re-released game being announced. This year alone, weve seen Resident Evil, Saints Row IV, DmC: Devil May Cry, Grim Fandango, Might Magic III, Final Fantasy Type-0, and plenty of other games re-releases with various degrees of touching up. God of War III, Final Fantasy VII, Final Fantasy X, and Final Fantasy X-2 are all on the cards for PS4 releases in the coming months. There are rumours of an Uncharted Remastered trilogy, the evidence for which is admittedly sketchy, but the idea itself seems more than a little plausible. There will no doubt be more remastering announcements throughout the rest of this year.
