​so don't buy them.

The only thing more laughable than the RRP of these "remasters" is how reliably they appear as "bargains" on HUKD.

I was going to buy this, but then I took an arrow in the knee...

1) Nobody is forcing you to buy them (though people clearly do, in massive quantities, otherwise the trend would die off).
2) Generally speaking, well-loved games are remastered for people who never had a chance to play them on their original platforms. They're not remastering bad games (mostly) - I'd take a remaster of a good game over a mediocre new IP any day.
3) The entire game industry is about making money from us! Developers/publishers/retailers aren't doing all this out of the kindness of their stone cold capitalist hearts!
4) Some of the finest games I've played recently have been remasters: Gravity Rush (which many people would never have played without it because, sadly, hardly anyone has a Vita), Resident Evil, The Last of Us, Valkyria Chronicles, DmC, Dark Souls 2: Scholar of the First Sin.
5) Remasters are often the cheapest way of buying games with all their added content and fix problems which may have plagued the original without remedy (again, DmC is a good example of that).

I really don't know why people get so upset about it.

Although a remaster isn't usually my thing, I haven't competed skyrim, or even got close, because my PS3 gave up the ghost 100 hrs in. When I got my new one I started again but I was so gutted I just didn't get into it again. The opportunity now to play a remastered edition with all addons sounds amazing and I will pay for the privilege.

Lol as usual if you get owned with facts and proof and you can't respond back properly you either try to brush it off or stop replying just like in the Uncharted thread you suddenly stopped trying to troll there lol fail. Try again :wink:

Cool story bruh.

Don't get a Wii U then, as that is what you will mostly get

Coupling all the hardware into one including accessories and controller for $399 at launch Sony actually was making a tiny loss each console sold at launch but said if a PS4 is sold with a game then that was just enough for a profit. The consoles were manufactured early 2013 and was the best available they can get under that price and AMD didn't have good CPU's back then, next year AMD is releasing the new Zen CPU's which is just want everyone needed since its far better than their old technology on the CPU. The GPU, RAM was OK for PS4 at launch in 2013 the CPU that's the best available to keep the PS4 $399 including accessories and expensive controller.

I see you always crying in threads underpowered blah blah this and that, it's very clear you don't like consoles judging from many comments why don't you just go game on your pc and if you don't have one go get one no ones stopping you

I struggle to imagine how much weaker PS4 and Xbox One would have been releasing at 2010 or 2011 as they are already underpowered hardware when they released powered with mobile technology!

​what utter nonsense. if the new consoles were released earlier they would have been less powerful. plus remasters give smaller developers the chance to make a bit of money from a larger publisher which they can then invest in their own ip. so good for the industry.

All these remasters are completely Sony and MS's fault for making last gen so long. All these "remasters" should have been native games in the first place as PS4 and Xbox One should have released in 2010 or 2011 instead they wanted to milk those ancient consoles for all their worth. Just goes to show how gullible gamers are though. Call it a remaster and they go crazy but if it wasn't marketed as a remaster no one would care.

Where did he say his going to buy it? Typical internet response. He is right though these remasters are getting gross now it seems like when a remaster is announced that i'm about to vomit.

I know they are beautifying it but the bigger question for me would be: are they going to fix all the remaining bugs? Check what the Unofficial patches cope with on the PC...

£32.69 at Base.

Price has gone up now.

It's 42 now on Simply.

you fool, the PC is getting EXACTLY the same version as xbox and ps4. My point is, the PC version is free if you already own it. Yet PS4 / XBOXONE owners have to pay again, and double dip. There is not disputing that fact!

Title is a bit misleading, you should point out this is a pre-order for a game that's not out for another 4 months.

Back up at Simply Games, ordered from Base at that price! Hot!

I bought the base game and all the DLC on PC for £4.99. I'll still be buying it on Xbox One. At least I wont have to spend hours mucking around with glitchy mods to bring the graphics up to HD standard. It looks pretty good, out of the box, on PS4 and Xbox One to me.

Amazing game but put simply if you have a job, or children or anything of a life this is not for you. However if you have a spare 250 hours to sit in your pants whilst eating ice cream you'll have a blast!

Skyrim Original vs Skyrim Enhanced Edition

Ok I was wrong this is a pretty extensive good remastering will buy

Well it was May when they were released, the 5th of 12 months in 2016. Since "early" is a pretty broad term I'm pretty sure that passes. But you know if it's annoyed you that much feel free to have a moan!

Only free on PCs if you have legendary edition, or all the dlc. If you only have the base game, Dlc pack is currently 40% off on steam at 19.99. Or wait for the summer sale perhaps.

free if you have PC version #pcmasterrace

Owners of the game on PC must be laughing their heads off.

I ordered this from Simply Games for £32.85 but it's not out till October 28th :confused:

Simply put, its lazy cash grabbing and some of them are done so poorly and with as little expense as possible that it shows contempt for the consumer

MORROWIND for me :wink:

Cheers Buzz :wink: Loved all Morrowind,Oblivion,Skyrim :wink: But didn't really enjoy The Elder Scrolls Online,but bought this from Simply Games for £32.85...

Probably a noob question but which mods will we be able to use? I'd like there to be a huge amount of choice!

They just said early 2016. It's mid June :smirk:

​also never had nothing but great service from SimplyGames , sounds like you where most unfortunate.

Mods for Fallout 4 been out about 2 weeks on Xbox One. PS4 coming this month I believe.

I don't recall them saying "with mods right this second" so there's no need to be a grump.

I've used Simply Games, in fact whenever I pre-order a game I used them because they always stretch the interpretation of release date the most and it means I get the game 2 or 3 days early, and if the game is released on a Tuesday I get it on the Friday or Saturday so get the whole weekend beforehand. I've never had an issue with them so never had to deal with their customer service but for me they have been excellent. Sucks your order never turned up but items get lost occasionally in the mail, I don't think they are being dishonest but clearly they could handle your complaint better.

Never played this on PS3 due to all the reports about frame rate issues so I am so pleased this is getting a remaster and will definitely be preordering this asap. Thanks.

The only thing more laughable than the RRP of these "remasters" is how reliably they appear as "bargains" on HUKD.

Oblivion would have been a much bigger development task. They openly admitted last year that they ported this game to the Xbox One and then used that as the basis for developing Fallout 4. I had a feeling that they would release it sooner or later tbh although originally they said it was strictly just a development tool.

It will probably be in the Steam sale in just over a week from now. It usually is.

can't wait for the release but wonder if price will come down in the meantime...

still, heat from me but may hang on to my money a little longer :smiley:

I was going to buy this, but then I took an arrow in the knee...

Likelihood of me buying it again 100%
Likelihood of me spending over 100 hours on it again 90%
Likelihood of me ever finding all the stones of Barenziah 1%

I won't post it separately. Base have now dropped to £32.69

With mods. Didn't they say that with Fallout 4? Still waiting.

Sold out now and I missed it

Thank you for this. My favourite game of all time. Cannot wait :smiley:

This. So much this.

Becareful of ordering from Simply Games, it seems all there games seem to be offered at this exact odd about i mean why £32 & 85p lol

Anyways i pre ordered Doom for ps4 for release day. Paid up and after 3 weeks of hassle i finally got my money back thanks to paypal. no apology or nothing on there part.

Still to this day no game has arrived despite them saying they did send it the day before release. When i asked also why the game kept going out of stick on the site . " oh its common in retail " hmm i don't see many games on other sites going out of stick several times in a day. lol

The customer service is garbage and all you get from them is it if its late send it back and if you complain as far as they are concerned the case is closed wait 10 workings days before going to paypal.

If you get your game your lucky but just shop else where as this £32.85 just seem like a ploy to get your money. probably so they can buy there stock of which they don't have enough to sell.

Very torn on this! And the Batman Remasters. On one hand, can I be bothered to replay hundreds of hours of the same game, but on the other the fact that they will all (Skyrim in particular) look beautiful remastered!

I agree with other posters they should be £25. A treat for those who haven't played them yet though!

Yeah, as another said, I've plowed over 100 hours into the original...I don't know if I've got it in me to do it again, as much as I'd love to...

ploughed 217 hours in to this. not sure I can go through that again. think I would have preferred oblivion tbh.

no one is forcing you to buy a remaster but there should be a way to continue from your 360/ps3 save as it pretty much confirms it won't be BC, and I have unfinished business with it.
guess I'm going to have to set up my 360 and play it on that... even tho it sounds like a hairdryer!

no worries op :smiley:

its cheaper on simplygames £32.85

never played all the expansion's for this when it was on ps3, so 100+ gaming hours for £34 is a bargain. plus mod support from Bethesda on consoles is gonna give this a massive following

And we as the fans asked for this. So no moaning.

Excellant. Well worth the money

I really don't know why people get so upset about it.

my favourite game of all time. I would pay hundreds for it the amount of entertainment I have had from it. played it for a year on 360 then bought a pc so I could mod the hell out of it... 238 hours in and I have only just met paarthanax! I keep getting sidetracked by picking flowers and maxing out my smithing. to me this game is flawless...

Heat, it doesn't help when every E3 announcement is leaked by the press eager to ruin it for people who don't want spoilers, hard to avoid given they are all over most gaming related websites.

Looking forward to this on PS4 as never played the PS3 version, even though it's sat on my shelf.

Heat for the price but as an E3 announcement this was actually dissapointed.

Never played it and probably never will so not judging the game on what it is.

This explains why Skyrim didn't yet make it to backwards compat. ****.

​so don't buy them.

I'll wait for a price drop. Remasters don't hold their price for long.

Seems a little bit steep for a game that is nearly 5 years old. Don't get me wrong I have no issues with remasters. But they should cost no more than £30 imo. Look at Dead Island sure there not the best games. But they did a decent job at remastering both games. Plus both for £25 or less.

We need a cheap Skyrim Legendary edition for Steam too so we can get the free upgrade. Prices will probably start going up

I think for a game that's looks to be completely remastered, all DLC included and mod support for consoles, this is a good deal. Heat added.
