Cave's Watanabe on the benefits of premium app pricing

@FinalFantasyXIIIsucks And if Apple is going to increase the technical specs of the iPad every year, won't development costs go up for iOS games too?

Alone in the Dark creator hopes for an HD remake one day

Mar 9th 2012 7:31PM (Joystiq)
Is it just me or is anyone else bothered by the terminology 'HD remake' when it's used in the line "HD remakes are becoming more prevalent in the video games industry, as a means of introducing a new generation of gamers to something they may have otherwise never played." (which seems to refer to the prevalent 'HD enhanced ports' of games like Metal Gear Solid HD and even Ocarina of Time 3D? These games are largely the same exact game they were (running on the same exact engine) but with prettier textures.

I personally reserve the term 'remake' for a game that was rebuilt from the ground up with brand new visual and audio assets; a prime example being Resident Evil on the GameCube. (You wouldn't call a movie remake such if it were the same movie, would you?).
