![]() ![]() We don’t know if this behavior is caused by the software used by the two apps, or because they have access to different servers. In several cases, the users achieved a higher download speed when using the Microsoft Store. Open the Microsoft Store, find and resume the game download. Fingers crossed that happens sooner rather than later.Start the download inside the Xbox App, pause it, and close the app. We’d be foolish to not think there wasn’t an element of safe money over a new IP being a factor too.īut, regardless of your thoughts on remakes, I bet we all have one game/series we’d love to be revived. But hopefully this has shed some light as to why so many remakes exist there are many reasons to remake a game as outlined above. They are as much a part of the gaming release calendar as indies and AAA titles are. ![]() A power move from developer Marvelous, or just because the world now loves a cosy farming sim game? It is likely that this name change has had a major factor in plenty of older Harvest Moon titles being remade under the Story of Seasons banner. No amount of me trying to explain it here will help ease the confusion. If you have never delved into the legal surroundings around the name change from Harvest Moon to Story of Seasons, I implore that you do. And while we’re on the beg, a remaster of Yakuza: Dead Souls would go down a treat.įinally, there is Story of Seasons: A Wonderful Life, a remake of Harvest Moon: A Wonderful Life. Hopefully this remake means that other games in the series previously unavailable outside of Japan get the same remake treatment. The original release of Ishin is the most recent of the games being discussed here, but is arguably the most difficult to get hold of. Now, the remake is having a simultaneous global release, such is how the series reputation has improved on Western shores. All signs point to Capcom not being done with remaking their Resident Evil games.Īnother remake that makes perfect sense – depending on which part of the world you like in – is Like a Dragon: Ishin! Whereas this was originally a launch title for the PlayStation 4 in Japan, it was one of a handful of Yakuza/Like a Dragon games that never released in the West. Many fans are also suggesting that Resident Evil – Code: Veronica is next for the remake treatment. This remake is an absolute no-brainer when you take all this into account. The fixed camera angles and slower shambling of zombies were overhauled, and Resident Evil 4 went on to be seen as the series highpoint. Compared to the original releases of 2 and 3, Resident Evil 4 already feels very much more modern. Of course, the highly successful remakes of Resident Evil 2 and 3 are the reason we are now getting Resident Evil 4 remade. The reality lies with the success of other remakes. So, this remaster clearly isn’t to address accessing the game on current hardware, like other remakes would argue. After all, the original was only released in 2008 and is perfectly playable today on Xbox Series X|S through backwards compatibility and EA Play. Looking at those already announced, Dead Space is first on the list. We need to look closely at the reasoning behind the remakes to see if this can help understand their frequency and reliance. In fact, whilst I cannot prove anything, there is a more than reasonable assumption that a game we will never have the opportunity to play way in the future, due to our untimely demise getting in the way, will be remade even further down the line. It has been around since ‘media’ existed and will continue ad infinitum. So, the practice of remaking is nothing new. And, I may be clutching at straws here, but isn’t a cover version of a song essentially a remake? When you apply the logic that Glen Schofield, the original creator for the original Dead Space game wasn’t involved in the ‘cover version’ of the 2023 remake, there is definitely an argument to be made. Heck, even one of my favourite bands, Thrice, just remade their album The Artist in the Ambulance to celebrate its 20 th anniversary and bring it up to date with their more modern sounds. Hollywood has determined every film must belong in a wider universe, so let’s remake everything to tie it all together. ![]()
