HunterTech 994 Posted January 26, 2023 Share Posted January 26, 2023 I've been having an issue in recent years where my drive to play games just isn't there for a multitude of reasons, but ever since buying a new PC in 2021 and a Steam Deck last month, I've been more eager to try out various titles (even if I won't get to them for a good bit). So since October 2021, I've gotten most of these on sale: -LEGO Batman Trilogy (w/ LEGO Batman 3: Beyond Gotham Season Pass) -LEGO DC Super-Villains Deluxe Edition -Batman: Arkham Knight Premium Edition -Injustice: Gods Among Us Ultimate Edition -Injustice 2 Legendary Edition -Prince Of Persia Franchise -Terraria -Horizon Zero Dawn -Ghostbusters: The Video Game Remastered -Transformers: War For Cybertron -Transformers: Fall of Cybertron -Marvel’s Spider-Man Remastered -Guilty Gear Franchise -Celeste -STAR WARS Jedi: Fallen Order Deluxe Edition -SpongeBob SquarePants: Battle for Bikini Bottom - Rehydrated -LEGO® Star Wars™: The Skywalker Saga Galactic Edition -Mass Effect™ Legendary Edition -LEGO® Indiana Jones™: The Original Adventures -LEGO® Star Wars® III: The Clone Wars™ -Kena: Bridge of Spirits Some of these I would've already owned on other platforms, but it was nice to have everything under one roof (especially now with the portable factor in mind). In the case of the two Transformers games, I had to buy them elsewhere (eBay for WFC and Amazon for a Steam code of FoC) as a result of them otherwise being de-listed per the license expiring. I'm sure it'll be ages before I get to much of them (seeing as my Nintendo backlog already is large as is), but I am happy to support a few of these companies for the products they released.

Still have my original copy so haven't made the jump on it yet. The two Transformers titles are great, did you ever play Devastation? The last game I bought was the collector's edition of Ghostbusters Spirits Unleashed, which had been delayed over a month from the regular release. Normally that wouldn't be a problem but the price difference compared to what you get in the regular edition is the most frustrating part. The game itself is a lot of fun, the controls being very intuitive for both busters and ghosts. And being able to create your own ghostbuster allows you to put yourself in the game, would like there to be the same option for ghosts though. I'd say the only real problem with the game is it's lack of levels. Having only 5 levels at launch is frustrating because there's so little in variety between them, especially when grinding to upgrade your Ghostbusters gear it can make gameplay very repetitive.

Apparently it's exactly the same, but with a much more bloated file size. I certainly couldn't tell much of a difference between both in the brief time I checked either copy, and I doubt it's just for improved comparability if my newish PC can play a pirated copy of the original fine. It was $6.24 however, so it ended up being preferable to buying a copy of the physical PC disc. So for now, my Steam Deck has the remaster, while my PC keeps the original for file size sake. I couldn't play Devastation for the longest time, since my old PC wasn't good enough to run it, and I didn't own any game system it released on. Unfortunately, since it wasn't on Amazon with the other Activision games, finding a Steam code nowadays looks to be a very expensive endeavor. I would probably need to borrow a PS4 and buy a copy somewhere, which is unfortunate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah so I'm on Xbox and have seen the remaster for sale in the Microsoft store, having only played the 360 version was curious if there was really any difference, at least in the graphics because they added the "Realistic" version later to the original I believe. So maybe that's where the file size difference comes from?

I'm fairly certain the more cartoon-y graphics were only ever in the PS2/Wii releases, since every other console version has the realistic graphics. It's more likely that since modern studios have more trouble in bothering with compacting the game assets into a reasonable file size, the ones in charge of the remaster just left it like that. Haven't gotten far in either though, so I'll see if I can pick up on much. I haven't gotten far into WFC, as I'm less fond of playing games in front of the television nowadays. But seeing as it's my first experience with a third person shooter, it's fun enough (if maybe a bit brainless at a lesser difficulty). I'm sure I'll get a PS3 copy of it and Devastation on my Steam Deck once I set certain things up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah perhaps I'm misremembering, the more cartoon-y graphics were definitely on the PS2/WII, for some reason I thought when the 360 version was released it had a sort of basic style, that would be best to describe it, then had the realistic version added as a patch later. But as you say it's probably that the current studios had trouble with compacting all the assets into a reasonable file size.

Interesting that this is your first foray into third person, but like a lot of shooters it does kind of become rinse and repeat, which can make it brainless but sometimes (for me at least) it's nice to just pick up an controller and go, compared to online games. Also they try to make the alt modes work in a way that feels part of the gameplay, but it just mostly feels like a run button instead, if that makes sense? As for Devastation it can quite easily go into the brainless kind of gameplay/story. But I think it's very much going for that style of story coming from shows of that era.
