Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet

PlayStation 5 has entered the final stage of its lifecycle, which Sony a year ago. Meanwhile, fan disappointment is evident: if you actively follow gaming communities, you've likely noticed how dissatisfied gamers are with the current generation. Journalists and bloggers have also published plenty of critical articles and videos on the subject. However, Sony is satisfied with the console’s performance, as the company reported in its latest financial statement. Let's examine why PlayStation 5 is being criticized and why, most likely, the negativity won’t have much impact.

Sony announced Days Gone Remastered — an updated version of the 2019 game.

Many users online immediately mocked this kind of "rejuvenation" of a game that didn’t even need it. In light of this odd announcement, let's take a look back and recall other cases where game studios wasted effort and time on completely unnecessary remasters or remakes.
