[Equanimity]

That's a shame. I'll buy the ultimate edition then.

I get it though, work has gone into this remaster.

 

[Hanbei]

Regrettable decision.

 

[Mad_Rhetoric]

Yikes, really sony?

What is happening lately?

 

[Alexzan]

As expected

 

[Deleted member 864]

Disappointing, and I have no real interest in going for the ultimate edition of Miles so ah well.

The only real hope is that they do end up selling it separately.

 

[Plankton2]

I guess that's what they meant about not believing in generations

Hahahaha what a lovely sentiment to share

 

[Kyoufu]

Gonna be the same story with TLOU2 and Ghost of Tsushima I bet.

 

[SnatcherHunter]

I am waiting for TLOU2, GOT etc enhanced versions to be sold on PS5. It is what it is.

 

[CloseTalker]

I'm more annoyed they don't plan on selling it standalone than I am about no free upgrade.

 

[Dunlop]

Wasn't this confirmed last week?

 

[Uzupedro]

I think it should at least be sold separately, if I'm not mistaken Insomniac said that they were looking on this, so there is hope.

 

[horkrux]

Outrageous. I will never buy from them again!

 

[convo]

How much for the paid upgrade if it's not free?

 

[KOfLegend]

This is so disappointing.

 

[Snake__]

Wonder how much The Last of Us Part 2 for PS5 will cost

 

[MrAlderson]

Personally don't care i just won't buy it. Does sony not see what others are doing around them. Why choose not to reward your most loyal supporters with a bonus

 

[Rodrigues solitaire]

Not even the 20 dollar upgrade? Fuck off Sony

 

[Le Dude]

Well that's shitty. You can't even purchase it standalone.

Can you buy SM MM and then upgrade edition later? Or would you have to spend $70 on the UE?

 

[Eeyore]

What a mess

 

[Phantom]

Just when Microsoft is firing on all cylinders Sony keeps not getting it.

 

[Wing Scarab]

Hopefully people who were gving 505 Games stick over Control will do the same to Sony.

 

[FullNelson]

No touching the Ultimate Edition AT ALL. Fuck Sony on this.

 

[Vashetti]

Scummy.

 

[Speedstersonic]

As much as I prefer Sony, mostly due to exclusive Japanese games, Sony can piss off with this decision

 

[HeavenlyE]

I feel like this has been the third time I've seen it be confirmed

 

[Azerth]

so the only way to buy the game is for 70 which if you want miles isnt to bad but for anyone that doesnt is auge price to ask

 

[ASilentProtagonist]

They've got me doing this a lot lately.

Yeah, I'm really hoping Microsoft can light a fire under Sony when it comes to stuff like this.

 

[SwampBastard]

I would not have expected it, so I am fine with this.

 

[hydruxo]

That's too bad. I've already played the hell out of the base game + DLCs so I'm not really itching to buy the remaster anyways. I'll just go with the standard edition of Miles Morales.

 

[smocaine]

Imagine buying a PS5 hahaha

 

[Ascenion]

I mean what did y'all expect? Spider-Man RELEASED IN 2018.

 

[zma1013]

I'd be fine if they patched the old version to have an uncapped framerate mode so I can get a possible 60 fps when playing on PS5 but we all know that ain't happening.

 

[wbloop]

Didn't Insomniac just "confirm" that a free upgrade would be coming on Twitter? What the hell?

 

[wingkongex]

That's a shame. I'll buy the ultimate edition then.

Jim Ryan thanks you for your service.

 

[skillzilla81]

But what about a paid upgrade?

No upgrade path whatsoever?

Didn't Insomniac just "confirm" that a free upgrade would be coming on Twitter? What the hell?

Click to shrink...

There are a bunch of fake twitter Sony accounts that people keep posting around here and elsewhere. That's probably what it was.

 

[HockeyBird]

I didn't expect a free upgrade but it does suck that you have to buy Mile Morales if you want to get the remaster.

 

[Hippopuncher12]

Sony and Microsoft couldn't be going in more separate directions if they were trying. Like come the fuck on. $20 for the upgrade isn't terrible or anything but still shit. I mean at least give a stand alone version for goodness sake.

 

[Bundy]

Absolute BS. But I do wonder if this was a Sony decision or a Marvel decision. Let's see what happens with Ghost of Tsushima, TLOU2 etc.

 

[reKon]

They're going to charge $40 for TLoU II remastered with Factions MP aren't they?

 

[Malkier]

Expected Disappointment.

 

[KillingJoke]

Fuck. I'll pass. it's a good deal for non owners but yeah.

 

[Chessguy1]

i need to replay the original game because i've forgotten most of it, but it doesnt feel right paying for it again. i'll just pass until the whole set is cheap i guess.

i bought the $150 CE for the first game.

Nah, was a fake-account.

 

[HououinKyouma]

#ArrogantSony creeping through. Definitely not "599 US Dollars" Sony, but they're getting there lol.

Imagine buying a PS5 hahaha

This is some weak bait.

Sony is really just offering MS layup after layup

 

[2Blackcats]

Dumb move.

Guess it's to add value to Miles Ultimate edition but probably could have been done better
