[Shmunter]

BUSHIDO BLADE from old school playstation. Played it recently, and it sucks compared to For Honor, but one can only wish!

[Jon Neu]

I guess it's a given that all games are going to run at 4K, 60 fps and improved loadings.

 

[Spyro]

Last I checked Driveclub is dead

 

[Perrott]

[laynelane]

I play Bloodborne regularly anyway so an improved performance version would be amazing. All the Souls games would be ideal and Nioh too.

 

[Spyro]

How is Driveclub not dead when they got rid of the online races.

Please tell me it's back again it's been months since I checked.

 

[Alx]

Maybe Just Cause 4. I'm not even sure I'd like the game, but I stopped playing after a few minutes because of the awful loading times (it was on free trial or gamepass or something). Maybe BC alone would be enough to make it bearable...

 

[TGO]

Not that many would choose this but..
Mirror's Edge Catalyst 4K@60fps + RT

No, it’s dead. But since when as humans do we not desire unobtainable things

The fucking game is dead. The people in this thread wishing for next gen updates to this game need their heads examined

I was never here

 

[Sleepwalker]

• Ghost of Tsushima (Backlog, 60fps)
• Assassins Creed unity + Black Flag (Replay, IQ, 60fps)
• Control (Replay plus DLC, 60fps)
• Death stranding (backlog, 60fps)
• Jedi fallen order (Backlog, 60fps)
• Uncharted 4 + lost legacy(Replay, 60fps, never bought lost legacy)
• Bloodborne (Backlog, iq, 60fps)
• Batman Arkham Knight (replay, iq, 60fps)
• Batman Return to Arkham (replay with hopefully better polished gfx and performance)
• FFVII Remake (Backlog)
• F1 2020 (Replay)
• MGS V (Replay)
• Wasteland 3 (Terrible performance on current gen)
• Dark Souls 3 (Backlog)

• Re 2 remake (Backlog)
• Re VII (Backlog)
• DmC V (Backlog)

I'm sure there's more, but this is what comes to mind now, got a lot of catching up to do, so the new game drought for the first year suits me very well

PS5 - Uncharted 4, RDR2, Horizon 1, TLOU2, Drive Club. 4K 60fps would be awesome, however more realistic expectation would be 1800p 60fps and 4K 30fps, because I doubt PS5 GPU is fast enough to run such games like RDR2 at 4K 60fps (18TF 2080ti barely can do it and that's with console settings).

XSX - all Xbox One games will run at 4K anyway but special patches for Rise / shadow Of The Tomb Raider, Forza 2/3, Quantum Break would be nice. I'm also not sure if XSX can run games like RDR2 at 4K 60fps (maybe with VRS), but 1800p 60fps mode would be still awesome. I would also like to see more BC games and 4K patches for Xbox 360 / xbox classic BC games, for example Alan Wake, Gears Of War 1, GTA 3/VC/SA, Ralli Sport 2, Jet Set Radio, PGR2.

Sony has no excuse to not update their first party PS4 offerings to 4K60.

Unfortunately they didn’t even make pro patches for some of their catalogue. Driveclub, Bloodborne. Probably others.

It's amazing how people still play this game and still want updates since it has been abandoned completely.

 

[LED Guy?]

I would really want The Last of Us 2 to have a remastered version with different modes.

- Native 4K 60 FPS mode.
- 1440p 60 FPS with RT Global Illumination/shadows mode.

I really would like it to have a mode with Ray Tracing, the game has some of the best graphics I’ve ever seen, but sometimes, like John Linneman from DF said, dynamic objects like characters/enemies can appear a bit out of sync with the exact lighting mood that a level is going for, it happens in every game, but this game uses a lot of dimly-lit environments more than any realistic game I’ve seen (tip: try playing RDR 2 while the world is covered with clouds to the point where there’s no sun/moon direct light on the scene, look at how flat it looks), because Rasterization isn’t great with those kinds of scenes where there’s no direct lighting from the sun/moon, they can do awesome pre-baking on still objects and utilize awesome AO, but characters may appear a bit flat at times even though they’re supremely detailed, so adding RT Global Illumination & RT shadows will accentuate what they’re already doing, I mean even with its current state, it still has the best lighting in any game so far, Naughty Dog’s work is just on another level!

 

[Ellery]

I think Final Fantasy VII Remake is the one game I feel needs the most work (man I hate those muddy textures) and would do well with higher resolution and faster loading times.
The same goes for Bloodborne as it would make the awkward framepacing and loading times much more bearable.
As far as Naughty Dog goes they do have the people that have the biggest passion for the technical side of things, but it would take a lot of time for them because they are perfectionists and they released 3 new AAA(A) games this generation and one remastered game so no idea if they have the time to give that special treatment to Uncharted 4, TLL, TLOU2 but I would love it. Impossible to say what it needs to turn one of these games into a PS5 game with 60fps and a bit of Raytracing.

I mean my list could go on and on and on. I hope as many PS4 games as possible get an increase in at least resolution and framerate (if possible. Not always the case. Some games are weirdly tied to fps).

 

[GymWolf]

No one, i already had 2 run in my most beloved games and i rarely do second runs to begin with, i'm not gonna do a third one just to see a graphical improvement and i already played every third party game on pc in their enhanced version compared to console.

I buy a new console to play new games, shocking i know.

No backlog? Superhuman time management

 

[GymWolf]

No backlog? Superhuman time management

My backlog is mostly formed by games that i was never really interested about in the first place.

The games i'm really hyped for get a day one purchase and a not-distracted run until i finish them.

And like i said, i don't need a ps5 to play old games in 4k60 because i already have a pc for that.

But i buy remaster if they are well done, and a full fledged remaster is usually 100x times better than an upgrade patch...

 

[Masterbrew]

Bingo what's why we want updates.

 

[Humdinger]

• God of War
• Horizon Zero Dawn
• Ghost of Tsushima

 

[Sethbacca]

Everybody has listed all of the ones I'd like (the obvious suspects), but as I haven't played RE7 I'd like to see that one pushed graphically and see it really pop in PSVR with the added power.

 

[FunkMiller]

Just Bloodborne.

I want to run that bitch with no loading times and at 60fps.

 

[Birdo]

Shadow of The Colossus with ray tracing

 

[Torrent of Pork]

Sony has no excuse to not update their first party PS4 offerings to 4K60.

They have 60 excuses for every game.

 

[Mistershine.]

Forza horizon 4, so I don't have to choose between 4k/30 and 2k/60

Minecraft, gimme dat path tracing

Anything else just better load times please.

 

[Kerotan Frog]

BLOODBORNE

Give me that 4k 60 FPS and might as well call it a new launch title.

 

[johntown]

Bloodborne is the on ly one I care about.

 

[Rusty Shackelford]

FH3
Sunset Overdrive
Red Dead 2
Batman Arkham Knight
Modern Warfare 2019
Ace Combat 7

 

[Tiamat2san]

Most game I want will receive a patch (Witcher, gears 5, forza horizon 4..)

I’d like a patch for killer instinct, RDR2, MK 11, and samurai showdown.

 

[dorkimoe]

Basically anything from Xbox ONe made to 60fps

Fallout 4 is the main one. Id like to play it again

 

[Piggoro]

Can I just have a ray tracing patch for my COD MW 2019 please?

 

[semicool]

Control. Too soon?

 

[diffusionx]

This thread by itself justifies the existence of PC gaming.

Bloodborne being stuck with that janky frame rate pacing for five years just isn't right.

Bloodborne being stuck with that janky frame rate pacing for five years just isn't right.

And with Sony doing a Pro model to mirror a pc like spec bump without giving the game a patch is a black mark. Bad Sony!

 

[Agent X]

The two games that immediately come to mind are Control and DriveClub.

Control could use some general performance boosts, but the biggest improvement would be to drastically reduce the #@$%ing long load times when Jessie bites the dust and you're eager to jump back into action ASAP.

DriveClub is unlikely to ever get a patch, since Evolution has dissolved. If this game were to get a patch, then it would look particularly sweet with improvements to resolution and frame rate. Toss in support for DualSense controller features such as haptic feedback and resistance triggers, and it would add to the fun.
