MediEvil getting PS4 remaster



PlayStation Experience 2017 has now ended, and one of the more interesting announcements of the night was that the PS1 classic title, MediEvil will be getting a full remaster in 4K, and will be a PS4 exclusive. More details are promised to be revealed "soon". This marks 12 years since the last MediEvil game, which was MediEvil Ressurection for the PlayStation Portable, back in 2005.

Of all the PSX first party games.......*sigh*. Activision should step up and produce remakes of the Spyro PSX games. And god forbid they make brand new Spyro games. If they produced one as good as Spyro 3 I can nearly guarantee it would sell incredibly well. Although it would need to be in the cartoonish mold of the PSX games. And not the darker style of the next gen versions.

Also a remade, or new, Ape Escape would be great too.

i have to say even though i enjoyed playing them on the PS1 all those years ago, and again when it got remastered on the PSP..... do we really need to see it remastered again!

i could get it if sony plan to revive the franchise and release a new medievil game and it be some sort of introduction to those that dont know of the game.

but why not also remaster medievil 2?

id think it would have been best to make a new medievil and include the remasters as a bundle.

i dont think i would want to buy another remake of the same title

Holy crap! I cannot believe it, and I cannot wait for it. I'am however a little apprehensive given that it looks like they seem to be going for a more comic tone for the remaster, hopefully it was just for the trailer and not the game.

The PSP game was a very liberal remaster. In fact, it was so different that I would call it a reimagining. The second game does not deserve a remaster IMO, but I don't think an exact remaster of the original game will hold up to today's standards, just like it didn't in 2006 for the PSP game. So I hope they don't bottle Sir Dans return, especially in the humor department with.

They were too busy whoring him out for the Skylanders series.

I don't see the community making enough noise like they did for Crash. But since Crash sold well for them they might start looking at older titles that they can remaster for easy money, well see.

    @Psionic Roshambo i didn't go amd for one specific reason, the AI performance is way behind nvidia
    +1
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i just got a 4070ti
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    oh yeah also DLSS is a pretty solid reason to go nvidia since fidelityfx is kinda crap
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and now with the rtx video upscaling, and sdr->hdr conversion, even more reason to go nvidia
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    both of which work well in potplayer
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    amd is a bit cheaper though
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Cheaper and they are less stingy with the RAM not a big issue now but I can imagine in a yard or two things might be different
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Year not yard lol
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the vram is one advantage when it comes to AI but ends up being slower even with that and really AI is the only use case that needs more than 12gb vram right now
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Interesting lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think I watched a video where two games at 4K where eating just over 16GB of RAM and it's the one case where the 7900XT and XTX pulled ahead (minus RTX of course)
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    So my opinion is that they could age a bit better in the future, and maybe AMD will continue improving them via drivers like they tend to do. No guarantee there but they have done it in the past. Just a feeling I have.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    cyberpunk at 4k without DLSS/fidelityfx *might* exceed 12gb
    +1
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but that game barely runs at native 4k
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think it was some newer games and probably poorly optimized PS4 or PS5 ports
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    they definitely will age better but i feel dlss might outweigh that since it looks about as good as native resolution and much less demanding
    +1
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    When I played Cyberpunk on my old 2080 Ti it sucked lol
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    AMD could introduce something comparable to DLSS but nvidia's got a lot more experience with that
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    least amd 7xxx has tensor cores which the previous generations didn't so there is the potential for AI upscaling
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    They have FSR or whatever it's called and yeah it's still not great
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so AMD seem to finally be starting to take AI seriously
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Oh yeah those new 8000 CPUs have AI cores built in that's interesting
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Maybe they plan on offloading to the CPU?
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Would be kinda cool to have the CPU and GPU working in random more
