NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I dont want them to replace my original version i dont want to have a remaster ehy does this keep hapening first skyrim and now this soon enoigh my old as fuck 780/fx8230 combo wont be able to run ANYTHING cause they are all remasters
FUCK THIS CHEATING BULLSHIT
>>343346069
So do they look better? BS2 included? If it isn't I'm not interested.
>>343346069
>replace
Its not going to replace the original you tard, its going to add a version alongside the game.
>>343346965
>original pc 1 and 2 dont work well on modern windows
>these will
To me this is a good enough reason for a remaster
>>343347161
That.
>>343346069
You can thank Microsoft & Sony for being fucking retards by making 8th Gen consoles non-backwards compatible.
The industry is so out of ideas all they can think of is adding graphics mods to shit that came out less than 10 years ago.
>>343346069
A game should be 10 years old (or more) before getting a remaster. Then again, the original is almost 10 years and still looks great.
This is fucking useless.
>>343347312
See
>>343347161
This is a very good reason for a remaster
Does anyone know if you'll get this for free if you have the entire series already?
>>343346069
Jesus christ, just don't upgrade aspie. You don't have to replace your copy.
>more remasters
Are companies just going to forever milk these remakes as long as they can? Seems like every other month there's a new fucking remake. When did this shit start happening? After FFVII remake?
>>343347495

if you own it on ps3 do you get it on ps4 too?
As long as they fix the sound thing in BS1.
>>343347536
Since the PS3
>>343347312
Console gets 1080p and 60fps, pc users get fixed animations and physics and a proper functioning port. Its good for everyone that cant already play it
>>343346069
I got the Bioshock 1, 2 and Inf in one bundle, does this mean I will get the remaster for free just like Skyrim?
>>343347763
Look at the image holy fuck are you blind?
>>343347884
It's not fucking clear, it said that remasters are free to existing owners but never mention which version or do you have to own Infinite DLC to get it
>>343347584
>>343347884
They're probably phoneposters. Fuckers neither read threads nor open images.
>>343348097
They will probably just upgrade the ones you have and not the ones you dont
doesn't bioshock 1 have trouble running on anything newer than the windows version it launched on?
Top executives and share holders of these corporations realize that by taking an old outdated game, sprinkling a few shoe shine polish and the re-releasing to the market is an actual profitable business.
Is it a bad thing? Ehhhh, yes and no. On one hand it's just another cash grab to save money by not making a new game or sequel. On the other hand... it gives games the longevity they need to become classics and to peek interest from newcomers who missed out years ago. Some games should be played for decades to come. I have a 5 inch penis.
>>343346069
>running Bioshock 1 in 1080p on Windows 7/8
Yeah man how fucking dare they make us play a version where we're able to play above a shit tier resolution.
>>343346069
pretty dumb, game looks amazing, I got Bioshock to work properly on windows8 years ago but could never get Bioshock 2 to run, i heard there was a patch but never went back, why not just fix it instead of charging more, I understand its free for users that already have it but its just a waste of time from the devs.
So i should buy the bioshock games while theyre on sale now for 5 bucks?
I never bought em on pc cause i played xbox at their release, seems like a pretty good deal if that will work.
>>343348750
>i got bioshock to work properly
This should take little effort beyond running the game the fact they finally address this is perfect
>>343348186
Oh okay so I should be able to get it for free just like Skyrim.
I guess they might remaster memeland too.
Are they gonna force the shitty new textures on us or are those optional two?
Fuck releases. They're almost always garbage.
Millennials want a modern warfare remaster so bad they'll pay $80 for the PC port and the space shooter and the game just came out last year. Fucking sad m8 real fuckin sad.
>>343347661
They'd just shove 360/PS3 guts in there.
They didn't of course so dipshits like you will run out and buy $60 remasters.
>>343349221
>two heat generating machines in the same small box
This is not a good idea for many reasons
>>343349221
And increase the cost of the machine by another ~$75? Nah you're stupid.
>>343349378
Worked fine in the fat PS3s.
>>343347474
Well you don't really like PC games if you only have one version of Windows on your computer.
>>343349412
Only because the ps2 didnt generate that much heat the 360 and ps3 both shot out about twice the amount and combining those with the ps4 and xbox one would have been a nightmare to cool
>>343348862
Buy now, get the remasters for free in 2 months. You won't have another sale until probably November, might as well.
>they won't touch the turd that is Infinite
Why the fuck not. They could have polished it up a bit, and made an okay game out of it.
>*BioShock Infinite is not being remastered on PC because it already meets current-gen console standards and runs smoothly on high visual settings.
>>343349531
thought that'd be the case, just making sure i understood it right.
>>343349540
Ya like cut down fighting the same boss THREE TIMES to just one encounter
Yeees, rape this piece of shit game so everyone forget about it.
They should stop in the original.
Hmmm, I should try to find my old boxed copies and see if they'll activate on Steam.

I have torrented version 1.1 of bioshock and bioshock 2 on steam and both work perfectly fine. What issues do these games have?
>>343348695
I was able to play BS1 on a Win7 machine. It had a few issues, but I managed to iron it out.
>>343349642
Oh and also make the atupid tower defence like part at the end something much more interesting
>>343346069
BS1 keeps fucking crashing on my PC so I would be glad to get a remaster
Fuck yeah. Bioshock 2 works like ass on PC
>>343349047
>Someone tried this hard
>>343349923
The point is you shouldnt have to fiddle with them at all
>>343349923

>>343347223
To be fair Xbone has been BC for a year now
Should i buy bioshock 1 & 2 on steam for dirt cheap now if you get remasters for free after owning them?
>>343350190
Obviously.
>>343350190
That's exactly how they get you.
Fucking sheep.
>>343350071
>>343350083
>developers put more effort into console games than their PC ports
gee i fuckin wonder why
>>343350190
If they interest you then sure they probably announced them now for this very reason though
It's free so why not. If they unlock the 30hz physics, add a fov slider, have native support for all resolutions and aspect ratios, add anisotropic filtering, and so on... that's less shit I have to tweak myself to make the game run well on Windows 7.
>>343350315
The game worked when it came out back on windows xp and most of 2s issues stem from dx10 they just have not fixed them and now it seems they finally are
Wait, so If I buy Bioshock 2 dlc i'll get the remaster of both games?
>doesn't work on my machine :^)
>>343350445
Weren't BS1 and 2 games meant to push Vista? BS2's issues came exclusively through DX10, so I assume the same is true with BS1.
Will this include bioshock 2 multiplayer?
>>343350575
I think you only get remaster for what games you own, so if you only have bioshock 2 you wont get 1
>>343350314
They get $5 (if even) from you instead of $60. How the fuck does that make someone a sheep?
>>343350767
Maybe someone should post a link to the Steam community thread/update about this, but the answer is no on the multiplayer.

>>343350742
Possibly but 1 has many more problems than just dx10 all i know is it worked well back on xp and didnt work so well on 7 and up never much bothered with vista
>>343347161
>>original pc 1 and 2 dont work well on modern windows
is this a common problem for people? they both work flawlessly on win7 64 for me.

I know 1 and 2 are better, but what the fuck
>>343351950
Why the fuck would the remaster BI?
>>343351805
yes
don't bother with infinite though
>>343351950
Bioshck 1 and 2 don't run perfectly on modern systems, why would you want remaster of infinite? It's fine
>>343352107
I played 1 back in the day, never played 2 and hated Infinite, yet I finished it for waifu, Guess I'll buy it as well
>>343349412
It was also 600 dollars and sold like shit because of that high price.

Only problems I had with bioshock 1 and 2 were 1 required a newer build of OpenAL.
And 2 needed to be manually configured to able to use more than 1GB of VRAM.
Both need FOV mods though.
>remaster
So is this an actual remaster or just another game with dumbed down textures, lighting, effects, etc?
>>343352614
>the PS5 will literally, actually sell itself on a remaster of Bloodborne

Woah, that's hard.... Better to make a """"remaster"""
We get a remaster of 1 and 2 for free? Neat.
>>343346069
These games fucking suck though, why do people like these?
>>343352760
A remaster doesn't necessarily mean better effects, textures and framerate, it basically means running at a higher resolution natively on newer systems.
Also, switching from pre-baked lighting to dynamic may cause a game to appear worse than it did before, case in point: Hard Reset - Redux.
With that said, it looks like they're tweaking some geometries and textures and lighting in BioShock and they look alright to me.
>>343353471
I bet you just discovered system shock, bioshock 1-2 are good games on their own merits go kill yourself
>>343353484
>Remaster (also digital remastering and digitally remastered) refers to enhancing the quality of the sound or of the image, or both, of previously created recordings, either audiophonic, cinematic, or videographic.
The definition of remaster is to enhance and improve, not to remove and make worse.
>>343353810
I've only played a little of each, but the gunplay (i.e., one of the main gameplay components) blows dicks in all of them.
>>343353471
>babbys first contrarian opinion
>>343346069
Do I get it free if I have the retail version?
>>343353874
i don't think that definition applies to video games you have many more reasons besides sound or picture to remaster something
>>343346069
What games let me go full master?
>>343353484
they actually updated redux to combine the prebaked ssao with the dynamic stuff
>>343354027
gunplay is not the main component of shock games.
bioshock infinite has by far the best gunplay out of any shock game yet it is also by far the worst shock game. system shock 2 has arguably the worst gunplay yet it is arguably the best shock game.
ironic isn't it.
>>343354470
It's one of the main components, I didn't say it was THE main component.
Which is why your later comparison of the shock games falls flat, because there is more to the game than that. That being said, I don't think there the other components make up for one of the major ones being fault.

Can only say for Bioshock 1 on PC but
>Horrible DRM
>FOV is completely fucked up on 16:9 aspect ratio
>Physics and animations do not scale from the 30fps on console causing them to look awful and jittery
Its far from unplayable but it still had a lot of issues.
As far as I know Bioshock 2 was a bit better and Bioshock Infinite on PC was a pretty great port.
Maybe they'll remaster that fucking shit mouse acceleration that you have to disable each and every time a level loads because whoever coded the game was a fucking idiot.
>>343354974
>Physics and animations do not scale from the 30fps on console causing them to look awful and jittery
Someone fixed that
>>343353874
>The definition of remaster is to enhance and improve, not to remove and make worse.
tell that to the fucks that made the sly and jak hd collections
>>343354974
Basically this. 1 desperately needs a remaster. 2 wasn't a bad port. Neither of the first two run on everyone's systems and if they do there's other issues, like the animations and fucked up fov. Infinite had a pretty excellent port.

Dude, Bioshock 1 runs on my INTEL INTEGRATED shitter. If it doesn't run on some guy's Nvidia or AMD card he got cucked hard
>>343355508
Ignorance is bliss m8
>>343355397
Enjoy your botnet
>>343355508
Bioshock fov is playable, animation frames are fixed by a mod and mouse acceleration is not noticeable.
>>343354974
I know Bioshock 2 still has the 30fps physics bug. There is a mod to fix Bioshock 1, but I think the guy found it too hard to make for Bioshock 2.
>>343346069
So are they going to remaster them into better games or is it the same shit with just a little less stink?
>>343347161
What? They're the best working games on my windows 10 laptop, looking forward to this though

>>343356828
>remakes are always at least as good as the original
Haha.
>>343347223
Pretty sure it's a fully-intentional business strategy to get you to re-buy the games and/or remasters.
>>343356686
I like it when they remaster older games. This recent trend of "remastering" 5 year old games that still look/play fine is retarded money-grabbing bullshit. A general rule should be to not remaster anything newer than 10 years old.
>>343347161
jesus christ, it takes maybe 5 minutes tops of troubleshooting to figure out shit like this. Your stupidity is not a good reason for remasters.
Anyone who has problems running BS1/BS2 on Windows 7 needs to uninstall KB2670838, aka the Windows 7 Platform Update. It does nothing but break DX10 games, it doesn't offer any new features.

Is Levine still butthurt that a no-name studio made a better game than both of his attempts?

The Skyrim Remaster, while potentially fucking a ton of mods, is a better-of-life update for the game to a 64-bit engine that doesn't shit itself when more than 10 mods and 4gb of textures are installed.
>no Bioshock 2 multiplayer
so it confirmed to replace my existing copy??
>>343360138
its been dead for years. Do you really think they would bring it back in the remaster?
>>343358882
I don't think HE is personally butthurt, but public in general dismisses BS2 because it's too much like the original when it's actually a much better game mechanically and they just think the TWEEST from the first game is memorable. Let's not even go into how BS1 is a carbon of System Shock 2 except in a different setting.
>>343360218
It worked for Perfect Dark Zero and RE5. At least for a week or so
>>343360218
It's dead because of Games for Windows Live. Now that's gone, there's no reason for it not to be included.
>>343346069

irrational is rip there wont be another bioshock
>>343360912
you need to understand bioshocks apparently didn't do that well financially, despite all the hype they got online. infinite apparently barely got made and changed into more of a straight up shooter to make it more marketable, but even that didn't work out.
>>343346069
Are you actually retarded? It'll obviously be a separate version that you have the option of downloading - just like with Skyrim.
>>343361135
Hmm, ok, I can forgive this if theyre trying to let normies know that not just infinite exist, and possible create a audience and demand for a new bioshock game to be made. Lets hope they get loads of dosh off this remaster, or atleast create a bigger audience.
