You are making an issue out of it as I did mention I don't care either way if you read my original post. Just expressing my opinion which no one else has to agree with. :)
That isn't such a long delay this time atleast also makes sense to release after E3 instead of just before or during the event. The remaster collection is supposed to come out around christmas according to the IGN Italia news article.

That's nice but do they really need it already? I think the graphics is quite good in this series especially with PhysX on.

More important is that they get the games here and that Arkham Knight doesn't get delayed anymore.

Have companies run out of ideas? All i see is remakes for next gen. Seriously?

It's a relatively cheap way for the publishers to make some extra money.

It is a good way to make extra money, remember consoles don't have the backward compatibility that they use to. If they did, I bet they couldn't get away with this practice.

Considering those console re-masters will be mostlikely converted from the PC versions, which already had much higher resolution and textures, there's very little actual work in making them.

I was wholly used to running Arkham Asylum on the PC at 1920x1080 and 60fps so I was actually surprised how well Arkham Asylum ran on the PS3 when it popped up in PS+. I'm not sure what framerate it was, but it certainly wasn't 30fps. I would hazard a guess at 1280x720 and an unlocked 40-50fps. Arkham Origins on the Wii U performed similarly well.

Arkham City on the Wii U was a bit of a mess though. That one definitely dipped below the 30s in places.

As for the remaster, it strikes me as a little odd that it doesn't include Origins. To be honest, though, I have all three on PC plus City and Origins for the Wii U, so I don't really feel the compulsion to buy it again anyway.

They're definitely one of the smoothest games of that generation. However they did skip out on some of the sharper textures etc which im assuming helped performance.

I'm agree, it's useless and a waste of money, time and energy.
So, in the future, all games will be remastered after 4-5 years ? I don't want to live in this kind of repetitive and sterile world !

...Still waiting for that Mass Effect Remastered Trilogy in hoping it includes all the DLC content.

And hopefully Square Releases Final Fantasy 12 HD or Capcom releases Resident Evil 0 and Outbreak in HD or Konami releasing Twin Snakes and Silent Hill 4 HD.

It wouldn't be that bad.

1) I would have liked them to keep remastering Lucasarts' Outlaws till today (cell shaded please).

2) For each remaster, the price of the former version plummets. If they do it fast enough, the difference of graphic quality becomes negligible compared to the price difference (not to mention that they might de-DRM the older versions they hardly care about).

WTF this is actually a deal breaker for me.
I don't really care about that other stuff, but Scarecrow level from AA was absolutely fantastic. And if AK content is going to be anything like it, I'll wait until I buy PS4.

which is kinda the point.

Will they add the original versions to the extras, for those of us who prefer the classic versions?

If they republish also some other classics like COD: Black Ops, I'll pee my pants. Heck, I'll pee on everyone's pants!

Game stuff that's OS X exclusive on PC? That's curious.
